My son goes there since 2017. They are keeping the same high standard since then. For me what is most important is the fact that he loves this place and people working there. The staff there is incredible: creative, funny, caring. Great job!

I'm honestly so glad I picked this nursery! My son only goes once a week but he loves it here, the staff are amazing and so friendly I love seeing what my son has been up to as well with the pictures they share. His speech is coming along very well he knows his shapes and counting and there's so much
for them to do as well, just wish I could go.

My little girl has been at Playland for a year now, I was so nervous about moving her from her old nursery but my nerves were soon put at ease within just a few weeks. She had learnt some welsh, more than I thought she would, her counting had improved, she had developed so much in such a short space
of time I was very surprised. The nursery go above and beyond for her and I could not recommend the nursery enough, my little girl absolutely loves it there and I'm very glad I made the decision to move her there. The staff are wonderful very grateful for all that they do.

He started at Playland in the middle of lockdown, and only able to have a few settling in days. You could see that even though he only had a few days to get used to being at nursery, that he was really happy with everything. Since then, we have seen him develop in so many areas, and this is due to the
amazing staff and surroundings here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
In June 2020 I returned to work during lockdown. I had never left my son other than with grandparents for a few hours.
The thought of returning to work and leaving him filled me with anxiety.
However, after only 2 settling in sessions, I could see just how much he had taken to the staff at Playland.
In the last 5 months, his development has exceeded our expectations. I cannot recommend the nursery enough.
Thank you for all that you’ve done not just for my son but for us as a family.

A great nursery that has really helped develop my daughter and gives a high standard of care to her. Having used a different nursery for my son this far exceeded that experience after it was taken over by new owners. Playland is great at giving me an insight into my daughter's day and I would highly
recommend.

Our son started at Playland at 8 months old. He settled in immediately, and has come home happy and worn out from learning ever since. Great communication between parent and nursery at all times.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has been at the nursery for the past 18 months, it is a pleasure dropping him off and I feel happy leaving him here whilst I work, he loves going to this nursery and the staff are amazing and caring.
Through this strange Covid year the nursery have adapted to change well and put in the right
measures so that children don’t feel scared in the new Covid rules but so parents feel they’re being well looked after.
Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff and you can tell they all love being there and looking after the children.
I love the daily updates in the children folders it’s nice to know what they get up to and it’s a good handover I know not all nurseries in Wrexham offer this.
My nephews both went here also and also most of my friend's children, and all feel the same as what we do.

I have to say, I am very happy with the care and attention my children have received since joining the nursery. The staff genuinely care about them and show commitment and time for each individual child. It's very reassuring as a parent to see your children happy in their childcare. They offer a variety
of activities and provide daily feedback on the children to each parent upon collection. Their care and learning is all addressed to a high standard and most importantly the children have fun. I find all staff very friendly and knowledgeable.

Playland is an excellent nursery. My son has been very happy here for the past two and a half years. It is a lovely environment, where they keep the children in their care constantly entertained with a wide variety of toys and activities. I have found the staff very caring and are always very friendly
and approachable when dropping/collecting my child. I cannot thank them enough for the care they have given.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I love this nursery. I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a childcare setting. The staff are fantastic and my son has great things to say about all of them. My boy has gained a lot from his nursery experience. He’s a very sociable child, has a lot to say for himself and loves all his friends.
Very sad to see him leave this place but my youngest will be taking his place in a couple of weeks.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attends two nurseries and Playland is hands down her favourite! The staff are kind and friendly and the nursery has a warm, homely environment. My daughter only attends Playland once a week but has settled in quickly, making friend easily and enjoying the routine. The reports we have had
on her progress have been thorough and encouraging. The staff are flexible and happy to help is we need extra childcare at short notice. The rooms at the nursery are bright and colourful and full of equipment for the children to play with. We have had a wonderful experience with Playland and will be sad when our daughter leaves!

I am very impressed with the staff at Playland, they are caring, patient and dedicated. They really get to know each child. My Daughter has had a great time playing, learning Welsh, learning numbers and getting creative and messy. Since attending January to July I have seen her mature and develop. I
cannot recommend this nursery enough, they are doing a fantastic job and give the kids a great start in life before they attend school.

My daughter will be 4 in October and has been at Playland part time since 9 months old. Not once have I had to question her well being or care, she has enjoyed her time there very much and has learnt so much. She is always well fed and usually has an extra helping of dinner which to me means the food
tastes as good as it smells!!
The staff have always been very approachable and willing to answer any queries I have had about anything and should I or anyone I know look for childcare in future I would certainly go back and recommend to others. We will be sad when she leaves in August.

The staff are extremely caring and friendly. They can't do enough for you. The owner is very accommodating and works with individual needs. The facilities are excellent and the variety of equipment are fantastic.
They cover all areas of learning and our little girl has come on in leaps and bounds over
the last few years. I will definitely be recommending Playland to friends in the area.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.975)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.975) out of 10 for Playland 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.975 for Playland Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (269 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 276 Ratings = 4.975
  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 Playland Day Nursery is based on 23 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 23 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.
