Nursery staff are always warm and friendly, attentive to details about the children. Broad range of activities offered with lots of outdoor play I feel confident leaving my child in their care.
Management team are pleasant but seem a bit disorganised.
I have received several inaccurate invoices. Communicating
by email is tricky as different people reply depending on the day and it seems a bit hit or miss whether you receive no reply or several replies.

The nursery always have the best interest for my child. I am always informed about my child's day. I love seeing photos of my child enjoying and would like to continue to see these as it gives peace of mind that they are ok. The food my child eats seems to be varied and she enjoys this.
The one thing
I would improve is maybe trips out of the nursery now and then but otherwise my child is really happy.

Fantastic and a world class professional nursery.
It is our first experience in the UK but this nursery is really brilliant and fantastic.
My child first was refusing to be there but the staff were really very friendly and professional to the extent that he is right now sad on the day he is not going.
Many
thanks.

Fantastic nursery who have been phenomenal with my daughter over the last few years. They really have developed her into an intelligent and funny little girl. Without the nursery, we would not have the support that we desperately needed. Shoutout to two staff members in particular who have been huge
figures for my daughter.

My son has attended Singleton Nursery for over 3 years. He absolutely loves it! Watching him thrive in this environment has been a joy. The staff are friendly, caring and attentive. My little boy is always excited to go into nursery, he loves the food and eats well - the menu is always varied and nutritious.
I wouldn't hesitate to send any future children here!

The nursery is wonderful, and the staff are amazing. Our child has been attending for 5 months, and we've had a very positive experience so far. The staff are so friendly and lovely, and have really taken the time to get to know our child individually and her needs/desires. The staff pay attention to
detail, and have made accommodations to ensure our child has the best experience possible.
The regular app updates are very reassuring as a parent, to know when our child has eaten, had a nap etc., and it's lovely to receive regular updates and photos of activities they've been doing. The activities even for the little ones seem to be varied, fun, and supportive for their growth and development in every area (motor skills, communication, creativity, reading etc). The outdoor space is also a great provision!
Overall we would highly recommend the nursery.

Today is my son's last day and we'll miss the place. It's been over a year and was such a welcoming place from the beginning. All the teachers are encouraging and nurturing with any discipline done thoughtfully and tactfully.
My son's unique quirks were noticed and celebrated, a hard thing to do when
you have a room full of children to manage. They really seem to all enjoy working with the kids and forming friendships.

Reply from Rachel Burley, Operations Director at Singleton Day Nursery

Thank you for your review. It has been an absolute pleasure having your son with us over the past year. We're thrilled to hear that you felt welcomed and supported from the very beginning. Our team takes great pride in creating a nurturing and encouraging environment and it's wonderful to know that our efforts have made a positive impact. Best Wishes for the new adventures that await you as a family and thank you once again for being a part of Singleton Day Nursery.

Our daughter who's 2.5 years old has come here since she was 5 months old. The nursery and staff have always been amazing! They do so much for the kids and their development at each stage and help the kids and us parents have a smooth transition into the next stage.
There's always contact there,
and they're quick if you need to get hold of them about anything. If there are any concerns (which is rare), they're quick to handle them and inform you. They keep you updated about your child's day, activities and development with pictures and development maps via the app.
The facility is clean and tidy with a wide variety of toys, games and books. When comparing prices when we first arrived, it's priced slightly higher than others but for the value of the money, you and your child get so much from it. Nursery provides a variety of nutritional meals and they have themed meals to celebrate holidays/culture. They have a lovely space outdoors with a mix of activities and toys and when dry they venture into the local park.

The staff are so friendly. Go out of their way to do things for my daughter and I love how well they know every child even ones that aren't in their class. There is a wide range of activities available and the food is delicious! The only thing that needs to be looked at is the buzzer system to drop
off and pick up. The wait for an answer sometimes is very long.

They take time to get to know them and foster a brilliant learning environment. The app is used well to inform myself and my husband of what achievements our daughter

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.759)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.759) out of 10 for Singleton Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.759 for Singleton Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (353 Excellents x 5) + (71 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 439 Ratings = 4.759

  • b) 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 Singleton Day Nursery is based on 36 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 118 number of registered child places is 23.6, which has been reached with 36 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
