My child has been attending this nursery for over four years. Throughout his time he has become a strong independent boy. The staff are extremely supportive, and caring and are all passionate about their duty of care.
Would recommend.

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.
Reply from Emma Prince, Manager at Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road)Glad to hear all transitions have worked well for your little girl, and she has bonded with her carers. She is thriving and becoming more and more confident and independent each day. Thank you for your lovely comments

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!

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.

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.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Being a first time mum to a baby born during the pandemic I was petrified about how my daughter would cope going to nursery. However, the staff have been amazing. They helped ease my daughter (and me) into the routine of going and I can honestly say my daughter loves it now. She genuinely gets excited
when she realises that we are going to nursery. I had always nursed my daughter to sleep. So I was worried about her napping and going without milk (she never really had bottles), but the wonderful staff helped her to settle and get into a routine for napping without a feed. She eats great and seems to have a really fun time. I love the fact that everything is tracked on the app so I know what has gone on. I even get a weekly update with some pictures of her enjoying time at nursery which is great! The staff are amazing! I would highly recommend this nursery.

Really lovely nursery. The staff are helpful and welcoming, they did amazingly throughout the pandemic. Our daughter was only there for about 6 months due to receiving a place at a school nursery. Would have stayed if they did 30 hours 9-3. We had some extra needs that we shared with staff who were
so understanding and worked with us to make sure our daughter settled in well and enjoyed her time there. The staff seemed very patient and playful and handled unpleasant behaviours well. Would recommend.

My daughter attends here after I loved the way my son progressed with talking and socialising when he was there and once again proved to be brilliant. My daughter had a very slow start to speaking but since attending Little Rascals she has come on so much and I can't thank the staff enough for helping
her communicate better and being patient with her. Highly recommend!

Very good nursery. My daughter always comes home happy and gets excited to go to nursery. Really good at keeping you up to date with your child and what’s going on within the nursery. My daughter has come along so much since she started here and always tells me how nice the teachers are and helpful;
would recommend to anyone. Also cannot wait for a place to become available for my son to start. Thank you so much for all you do.

We are pleased we took the decision to move our child to Little Rascals. He is really happy and really enjoys coming to nursery and he's always happy on picking up. Having the app and seeing what he eats every day and if any accidents have happened is great, a very good thing, we love it. The office
staff and all the girls, in general, are great, well done to all staff in Little Rascals. I will definitely recommend it.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.869)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.869) 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 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.869 for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is calculated as follows: ( (439 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 489 Ratings = 4.869
  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 41 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 41 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.
