Review from Lucy K (Mother of Child) published on 26 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my sons joined little green frog this time last year, and will stay there until they start school as we are so pleased with the care they receive. The staff are all so loving and caring, and my children are really happy there. They have had some lovely things going on this year such as incubating
eggs and watching them hatch, and watching tadpoles develop into frogs. I highly recommend this nursery and all of the staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having used another nursery in Leeds for our older child I have been able to directly compare LGF against the one we were using. LGF is vastly superior. It feels very well run and the staff appear very engaged and experienced. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.

Review from Ani E (Mother of Child) published on 21 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Both my 3 year old daughter and 14 month old son attend Little Green Frog Nursery. They have both built strong relationships with the staff who are very caring. The inside and outside space is set out well with lots of different areas to explore. Recently my daughter went for a walk with the other
older children around the surrounding fields where they were able to meet and chat with a sheep farmer, she also found leaves and berries which she made into a picture. My son quite often has trips to the local park to feed the ducks (a very favourite pastime of his). The food is all cooked on site using local produce, which my children seem to love. I would be very happy to recommend this nursery.

My daughter has been attending LGF for over a year, and really enjoys going to the extend she calls it her nursery. She has had the opportunity of growing not just in strength, language skill, knowledge, but also to grow plants from seed. She gets encouraged in all that she does. Gets plenty of chance
to play outside when the weather is good to performing in small concerts. They even get encouraged to be part of the local towns carnival (unfortunately my daughter wasn't one of them this year). I would recommend the nursery and speak highly of them.

We have been connected with this wonderful nursery since 2010, and both my daughters have really enjoyed their time here. They have formed strong bonds with the wonderful, caring staff and I have always felt they are well looked after. The children are learning through play in the most wonderful settings,
surrounded by the countryside and walking distance to the park. As a parent I feel well informed of how my child is doing at nursery, and there are events through the year which includes us parents, such as Christmas dinner, Otley carnival and summer BBQ. I would definitely recommend The Little Green Frog to anyone looking for childcare.

Review from Helen A (Mother of Child) published on 15 July 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending LGF for over a year. I am completely satisfied with the care he receives. He obviously enjoys himself and he loves the staff who care for him. The meals are varied and he eats well- and was helped to eat until he could manage it himself. Every day I am fully informed about
what he's been doing, playing with, eating etc by staff who genuinely care for him and enjoy seeing his development. The supported play is appropriate for his age and is helping his development. He loves playing with the other children inside and outside and loves it when they go to other places- walks in the countryside or to the park.


My daughter attended this nursery for almost 4 years when it first opened 10 years ago and some of the staff are the same as when she was there which I think is great for continuation and shows that the staff are happy in their roles.


I know that my son is being well cared for and is safe and happy and stimulated and can't wait to get to nursery on the days he attends.What more can you ask for from a nursery.


I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to anyone looking for somewhere excellent to care for their child.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.995)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.995) out of 10 for The Little Green Frog Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.995 for The Little Green Frog Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.995
  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 The Little Green Frog Day Nursery is based on 18 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 58 number of registered child places is 11.6, which has been reached with 18 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.
