My daughter has been going to Daisy Chain since she was a just over a year old. We had settling in sessions which really put me at ease and all of the staff were so lovely and answered all of our questions. I have recommended this nursery to friends and would recommend to anyone. All of the staff are
lovely and even staff in other rooms know your child's name and say hello/goodbye. My daughter was assigned a key worker, Megan, who she absolutely adores and we get updated on what our daughter has been like that day when we pick her up. She really loves going and settled really quickly and I enjoy looking on the app to see what she has been up to. It's good to see what she has eaten too as nursery provide a good variety of meals and tell you how much they have eaten

I have nothing but praise for Daisy Chain. Every single member of staff has always been friendly, kind, caring and professional. My daughter has always loved nursery and each and every team member who has cared for her. I love that even though she has a key worker, the whole team have an overview of
her day and can give me an update on how her day has been. As she has progressed through the rooms, she hasn't been immediately forgotten from the former room - the team from her baby room, still say hi, interact with her and genuinely care about how she is getting on. There's been times she has needed additional care and there has never been a problem with providing this, if anything the staff have gone above and beyond to reassure me she gets what she needs while at nursery. I couldn't recommend Daisy Chain enough.

We are so grateful to the nursery team for creating such a warm, happy, and caring environment. It's clear how much dedication and kindness goes into supporting the children every day, and it truly makes a difference. A very special thank you to my child's key worker Denise In the Pixies room for the
love, patience, and attention she shows she even mentioned changing her start time as my boy has been upset and unsettled on drop off and sends me photos to reassure me my boy as settled in time and throughout the day which I appreciate a lot. Siobhan as also been a big help in caring for our boy and helping him settle. Knowing my child is cared for so thoughtfully gives us great peace of mind, and we deeply appreciate everything you do to help them grow and feel secure. Thank you all for the wonderful care and support.

We couldn't be happier with Daisy Chain, they show such care for our little boy and he has come on leaps and bounds since starting at nursery in 2025.
Our little boy is cautious and can be shy but in his time at Daisy Chain he has become so much more confident. Everyone at Daisy Chain continues to
help him develop and make sure he has fun whilst doing so. Thanks so much!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have had a great first month; our child settled in fantastically which has been enabled by having such great staff that clearly really care about the children. The food is great and we can see development already in our child's eating - trying more new foods & feeding themselves better. The rooms
feel homely with lots of toys and the activities the children do seem varied but also educational, while also developing fundamental skills.

We couldn't be happier with Daisy Chain, Rothwell. All staff show such genuine care for the little ones, and you always receive a warm welcome at drop-off and pick-up. The nursery is colourful and fun, and our 3-year-old loves his days there. There's always a chance to play outside and all the play
spaces have been so well thought out to keep the kids busy all day! Couldn't recommend it more!

The staff at Daisy Chain have been fantastic with our baby as he's started nursery. They have been very welcoming and supportive as he has settled in and he is enjoying the wide range of food and activities they are providing. He's learning new skills and it's comforting to know he is developing well
and trying new things with the support of the Daisy Chain staff

Our key worker, room leader and everyone in the room and nursery has put in a lot of effort to form a bond with our son. You can see that they care and that he enjoys seeing them. Everyone was adaptable when chicken pox interrupted the settling in process but made sure he got the time he needed to help
him feel as comfortable as possible. Two months in and he leans in for cuddles! The updates everyday are really helpful and he is getting a variety of nutritious meals.

We couldn't recommend daisy chain enough, we intially wasn't going to put our child into nursery but due to a change in circumstances we had to and we couldn't have hoped for a better environment for our child. First of all they were so helpful getting us in last minute with the days they had left available,
the settle in session was lovely and our little one took to the nursery and the staff instantly which was reassuring. Throughout, the staff have remained informative, helpful and professional, even walking through the nursery to our child's class room other staff member of the older rooms know his name and say good morning to him which I think is lovely. The menu selection is great with different things all of the time and even offering the recipes on the app used to monitor your child's day. As first time parents who was sceptical about nursery at first it has been an absolute breath of fresh air.

Daisy Chain Childcare Rothwell has provided good settling-in sessions and follow-up sessions if required. The atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming with management and key workers, all fully aware of our child and us. The care in the room is excellent and our child has been made to feel safe and
loved away from home. Activities engaging and the food is varied. Communication of our child's day is great with regular updates on the app and verbal updates. It's amazing to see our child thrive in such a wonderful environment. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Daisy Chain is an excellent nursery. Our son, age 4, has attended the nursery since the age of 12 months and our daughter attended from age 3 (having previously been at another nursery) until starting school. The staff are first rate. Our children were helped to settle quickly and formed strong and
secure bonds with their key workers. The nursery is a reasonable size, but all the staff seem to know all the children and the children know and are confident around all the staff. The nursery environment is calm (no mean feat with a room full of pre-schoolers) and nurturing. For the older children there are regular engaging organised activities (music, football, etc.). The staff also make a great effort to give the children new and interesting activities within each room. The staff have also gone above and beyond in organising special events - a nativity, sports day, leavers prom, etc. Most importantly, our children have been very happy here and that has helped them thrive.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We sent our first son six years ago and our second son joined the baby room in November 2023 aged only 9 months.
This nursery is excellent. In particular, the staff in the baby room go above and beyond what you would expect of their roles. They genuinely care for the well-being of our son and for that,
we are so grateful. They are so attentive, thoughtful and proactive.
Our son’s key worker is outstanding. Our boy gravitated to her from the off and she clearly makes sure all of his needs are met, he loves her and reached for her by day two which is testament to how she treats him. This is what you need when you have to go to work and concentrate. I am fully confident he receives the best care. The staff are very creative, energetic and dynamic and I think the kids feed off that.
My son was breastfed and they really helped with the transition and made sure he kept hydrated.
Thank you Daisy Chain Childcare once again!

Excellent nursery, both my children have loved Daisy Chain Childcare Rothwell. The staff are always friendly and kind to both myself and my children. The food I always find is well balanced and nutritional whilst offering different cuisines throughout the week.
Even though I'm not there all day, my
son always comes home happy after a day at nursery and that tells me everything I need to know about his care whilst in there.

Great childcare service and great staff. Our daughter has been in this nursery since she was 11 months old until now. She has positive experiences. She loves every single day at nursery. She bonded with her key workers so well, also friends. We love how they work with our daughter and keep us informed
about everything. We love how they care about every detail of our daughter. We highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Daisy Chain Rothwell is an outstanding nursery for a number of reasons: the staff really are amazing - our child’s keyworker has a fantastic relationship with her and regularly updates us via the app about all that she has been getting up to at nursery in line with the EYFS. The nursery itself has a
traditional feel to it, as soon as you walk in the wall displays clearly show that it is a warm and nurturing environment. Management is fantastic - any worries or queries are dealt with straight away. The chef makes a variety of nutritious meals. The quality of care our little girl receives here speaks volumes as she is always super happy to go to nursery and staff really have helped her to excel across all areas of learning. They have done and are currently doing an amazing job at getting her super prepared and ready for school come September. I have no worries or fears that she will be more than ready thanks to the quality of learning, resources and everyone at Daisy Chain Rothwell.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.724)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.724) out of 10 for Daisy Chain Childcare Rothwell is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.924 for Daisy Chain Childcare Rothwell is calculated as follows: ( (133 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.924
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Daisy Chain Childcare Rothwell is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.8
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 12 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
