Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are amazing! It is evident that they care for your children and get to know them individually to ensure that their time there is an enjoyable one. They are constantly looking at new activities for the children to be involved in and keep them interested and entertained. I would highly recommend
to others looking for childcare.

Review from Karen (Mother of Child) published on 26 June 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Zone4kids at Coquet Park First School is very convenient for us as a family. It provides childcare before and after school, both of which we need. My child chooses not to have breakfast there as he says he prefers breakfast at home. Maybe it's the small size of the cereal bowls or just the fact that
he'd rather be playing? It would be good if the staff could ask him and find out what he would prefer. He likes the fresh fruit so this is really good.
Whenever I go and pick him up he seems to be playing nicely with his friends. Sometimes it can seem a bit busy but I would rather that and children get a space there, than there not be enough places for everyone.
The staff are very accommodating and really seem to like and care for my child.

The setting is really homely and the staff are always caring and child-centred. My children are happy to be dropped off and happy when I pick them up and that says a lot! Highly recommended.

The team at Coquet Park Zone4kids have always provided a welcoming environment for both of my children. The setting has recently developed new play areas and the children enjoy their additional play. If only the weather was better to get outside more, this is an area that could be improved but I understand
it would have to be in agreement with the school.
I would highly recommend Zone4kids and always know the children will be secure and happy when I am at work.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have enjoyed attending Zone over the past 4 years for both school wraparound and nursery care. We are very happy with the care they have received and believe the staff work hard to create a supportive and nurturing environment. The children are respected as individuals and able to
choose activities to partake in including crafts, baking and imaginative play. They have enjoyed it when additional activities have been available and it would be great to see more of this.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children attend Zone4kids at Coquet Park every morning and evening and the care is outstanding. They had to switch schools mid-year due to a house move and the staff have been absolutely brilliant at helping them to settle in, especially in the mornings when they were feeling quite unsettled.
They ensured they got to know the other children and routines very quickly so that it soon felt like they had been there all the time. The staff are always friendly and welcoming and the boys love going there every day.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My sons have enjoyed attending zone for over 8 years. They enjoy the varied activities especially cookery, art and active activities. I believe they are well cared for throughout their time there and they have developed strong relationships with individuals. The staff attempt to use the outdoor space
as best they can but this is the only drawback of the facility as it is limited. They have also enjoyed it when additional activities have been available such as football training and I’d like to see more of this.

Review from Angela R (Mother of Child) published on 18 June 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My children have been very happy in this lovely nursery. They have progressed so much socially and developmentally. Their speech and understanding of social norms has come on leaps and bounds. They have made close friendships and bonded well with all the superb staff.


They have been excited to learn

songs about days, months and numbers.
These fun learning tools have helped to increase their general knowledge. The staff have supported the need for rules and routine. My boys are very spirited and active, yet the staff manage to channel that energy in a positive way. The have also helped with potty training and the numerous outfit changes.


The indoor setting at Zone is very spacious with lots of different play areas. The facilities, activities and toys available are very varied. My children have really enjoyed their time at Zone. As a parent, I can highly recommend the nursery to others looking for that next step for their little ones!

My son has attended Zone4Kids for over a year now and we have been delighted by the level of care provided. My son views it as a really safe and fun place to be, with a very wide range of activities, many of which we would never dream up at home! His interest in craft, in particular, has changed enormously
since he started and now loves to give craft activities a try. His social interaction has come on heaps too. A sociable boy anyway, I’ve noticed how he really cares for his little friends that he’s made there. We love the staff and many of the key workers feel like an extension of our friends and family. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.677)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.677) out of 10 for Zone4kids at Coquet Park First School & Out of School Club 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.902 for Zone4kids at Coquet Park First School & Out of School Club is calculated as follows: ( (123 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.902
  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 4.775 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Zone4kids at Coquet Park First School & Out of School Club is based on 11 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 = 3.775
    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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 11 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.
