This nursery is a lovely, relaxed nursery and the staff are always very welcoming. They go above and beyond to ensure that the children have the best time at nursery and are always on hand to answer any question you may have. I as a parent would highly recommend this nursery.

My son has just started, he loves every minute. We can see a difference in him already, staff have been fantastic from his induction days to the present, very friendly easy to talk to. My wife and I were nervous at first leaving him but we needn’t have worried. Anyone looking to put their child into
a day nursery I couldn’t recommend this one enough, they also have an app on which you can see your child's progress, which is great.

Brilliant nursery. My daughter's been going for a year now. She absolutely loved it. It took a little longer to settle into the big room from going from the baby room but has brought her on loads with talking, sharing, counting and singing.
The staff are also very friendly and extremely helpful as
is the manager.
So pleased I choose this nursery.

My daughter has been in this nursery since July 2017 since she was 11 months old. She absolutely loves it and she's come on so much with the help of the staff at Spring. They are all lovely, friendly approachable people I would highly recommend this nursery.

Fantastic nursery and the staff are amazing. My little boy has been there since he was 9months old and loves it. He will sadly be leaving in July as he is starting reception. He is very sad to be leaving the friendly caring staff and all of his friends.

My 2 children go here and it’s by far the best nursery we’ve seen.
The staff are exceptional and so knowledgeable.
They encourage all kids in everything they do and you notice everyday that all members of staff just love their jobs and helping the children progress.

Highly recommended this nursey my 4 year-old has been going since she was 2. He loves it, the staff are so friendly and they're great with the children. My little one leaves in July to start reception. He stayed at this nursey for his early years nursery as he was so settled and I didn't want to uproot
him.

My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting when she was 2. She has an amazing bond with her key worker and runs into nursery every day excited to see everyone! My twins also start here in September and I don’t have any worries about them at all.

My little girl attends one day a week. She started going at 5 months so I was obviously nervous about leaving her and the girls put me totally at ease. She always seems to have had loads of fun and has been up to all sorts when I pick her up. The girls are so easy to talk too and the kids are all well
looked after. Not a bad word to say about the place or the staff.

My three children have been coming to this nursery for the last 10 years.
The staff is always professional and friendly. They always do the best for the children and are easy to talk to.
The setting is always clean and welcoming.
I couldn't ask for a better environment for my children's education
until they are ready for school.

A truly outstanding nursery. I have one child who attends and another who left to attend school. This nursery is everything you could ever want for your child to feel safe and have fun learning and interacting.
The staff are amazing staff who truly care for your child and will always go above and
beyond. This is an amazing nursery and I would highly recommended it to any parent without hesitation.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.893)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.893) out of 10 for Spring Nursery Leam Lane 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.893 for Spring Nursery Leam Lane is calculated as follows: ( (365 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 403 Ratings = 4.893
  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 Spring Nursery Leam Lane is based on 34 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 74 number of registered child places is 14.8, which has been reached with 34 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.
