Our daughter is very well looked after here. She eats a wide variety of good that she wouldn't usually try at home and her confidence has come on leaps and bounds since being at this nursery. We don't have to worry when she is at nursery and are kept well informed via the app of what is going on during
the day.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has settled and adapted really well in her nursery setting and is growing from strength to strength thanks to the hard work of the staff members and management. As a mum, I had many worries about her transition into nursery as suffers from allergies but I have been supported throughout with
this by the fantastic team you have looking after my child and all her peers. I feel nursery has gone up and beyond for my child and has such a special bond with one staff member, in particular, but also loves all her carers and all the team. I'm so happy with my child's development since being at nursery and my child is so happy going, I can't thank you enough well done.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My fourteen month old son has been welcomed to Little Rascals, Station Road with open arms by every member of staff. I cannot fault anyone. Little Rascals has helped my son develop so much - from learning to crawl, walk, trying new foods and even gaining new friends! He absolutely loves coming to nursery
and always comes home with a big smile on his face. I know that he is 100% looked after and if I have any problems I know I can easily speak to any of the staff members.
Also, the App they use is amazing! I get regular updates on what my son does daily - eating, napping, wet/dry nappies, playing outside and photos as well!
I would most definitely recommend Little Rascals, Station Road to anyone! Thank you so much for all you are doing!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending Little Rascals full time since he was 11 months (green room) - he is now 2 years and 2 months (yellow room). He absolutely loves the staff at Little Rascals and gets so excited when they come to the door to collect him. He's so independent and I've really noticed him learning
new skills, encouraged by the staff. I love the regular updates on the app and the photos they add of him playing. He has lots of friends and we've been able to meet up with some outside of the nursery. I would recommend the nursery to any parent. I just love the pure joy the staff show looking after the children and that is reflected in my happy little boy.

The staff are very welcoming both to child and parents. I find the nursery quite secure and a nice environment for a child to be nurtured in, as I have noticed a very good development and growth in my child's entire behaviour and knowledge. I will always recommend

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Me and my daughter love Little Rascals Private Day Nursery. The staff, ranging from nursery assistants to management are absolutely amazing and all so lovely. My daughter is always coming home and saying good things about all the people who look after her and I can see just how much these people care
for the children we send there. My daughter recently graduated from there and the little ceremony was lovely and could really see then how much they love the children and how much the children love them. The activities they hold for the children are great and range from painting to learning to exploring the wildlife in the gardens. The food they offer is great, always something new for my daughter to try which is great because I don’t think of some of these things! The app they use is amazing too, can see what they’ve been up to, what they’ve eaten and when they’ve gone to the toilet. I will always recommend Little Rascals to other parents. Thank you for everything!

I only have positive comments and experiences with Little Rascals they always try to help and support in any way possible I trust all staff with all three of my children. The nursery staff are friendly, helpful, and great role models. The managerial staff are professional, supportive, and always willing
to go above and beyond I literally can't say enough nice things about all of them
Thank you.

My four year old son attends Little Rascals on Station Road and it’s absolutely fantastic. He attends three mornings a week. My son is extremely shy around strangers and used to get really upset when we first took him to the point it upset us leaving him however the staff settled him and after a few
sessions he went in fine and he absolutely loves it. He has learned so much and we have seen a huge improvement in his development, we get regular updates and photos on the nursery’s app which is fab to see and any messages you send are responded to promptly. I can’t recommend Little Rascals enough the setting is fabulous and the staff are fabulous.

Absolutely fantastic staff. My baby has come on leaps and bounds. Always update me on the app on her progress. My little girl loves attending nursery. I would recommend this nursery 100% to anyone wanting to feel at ease while at work or leaving their baby for the first time; they are in good hands.
I can not thank them enough for the care provided to my little girl! Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.857)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.857) out of 10 for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.857 for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is calculated as follows: ( (329 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 371 Ratings = 4.857
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is based on 31 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 31 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.
