Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Singleton Day Nursery in November from being at another nursery. And honestly, the staff helped him with his transition flawlessly. He took to all the girls and loves them, as the girls love him. I never pick him up with a bad word is said. They say he always makes them laugh and smile.
His speech is now brilliant, and he is starting his counting and everything. Turning two in March ‘23, he is just the smartest little boy ever. Not a day goes past when I am not glad I made the move for him to Singleton Day Nursery.

My son has attended since December. Notice since he started, he has flourished with his speech and talking more clearly. Staff are always happy, friendly and so supportive. The app they use is great, as can see what the children are doing, so feel great knowing they are getting taken care of and shown
the fun they have. Best nursery by far.

We have been really pleased with our experience at Singleton Day Nursery. The staff have been really kind and supportive and have worked with us to help our daughter settle in. The app is used really effectively to share information, and it is easy to keep in touch with staff throughout the day if needed.
It has taken our daughter a while to settle in, but the staff have been so caring and committed to helping her find her feet. We would definitely recommend it!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attends Play Scheme at this day nursery; he has never said he doesn’t want to go in. The staff are all brilliant, and I love how they take time to give every parent a full and detailed handover at pick-ups. That means so much. He is very pleased when a lot of his school friends attend Play Scheme
too, but equally, he has lots of fun when they don’t. He is especially fond of one member of staff, and she’s been made aware of this.
I can highly recommend this place and will continue using it for half term. Thank you for all your hard work, everyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending singleton nursery for almost a year now. As a single mum with a little 2-year-old really busy boy, I have struggled with him. Since starting at Singleton, I have noticed a massive change in him, and I honestly feel this is the best decision I’ve ever made for him. He absolutely
loves going to the nursery to play and see all of his friends. I know the team genuinely cares about him, and that’s all I can ask for. The constant updates on the app make me feel at ease when I’m at work also. Everyone I’ve met has such a friendly and approachable personality. His speech and behaviour have improved also since starting there.
I want to give a special shout-out to his key worker, he absolutely adores her, and every morning, he asks for her. She is kind, caring, understanding, and such a beautiful soul and Singleton nursery is so lucky to have her as a team member. I will forever be grateful to her. We love her to bits, thank you.

Excellent daycare setting. Staff are kind, approachable and caring. Care is mixed with learning and play in a seamless manner. In the preschool room, staff work with children towards Government recommended targets in line with school settings. The meals provided appear healthy and nutritious.

I've had a great experience with the nursery - love receiving regular feedback and updates through the app. I've changed days recently, and the whole process was so easy to arrange. My little boy loves going in and obviously enjoys all the food he's given!
I'd love there to be an update on who's who
staff wise, as many of us that had children join during Covid have never got to meet everyone properly. Everyone is fantastic; I just feel bad I don't know everyone's names!

My daughter has been attending the nursery for almost two years and absolutely loves it. She currently attends playscheme, and the girls are amazing with her.
Couldn’t recommend them highly enough. As always, kept up to date with how she has been throughout the day, and I feel relaxed at work knowing
she is having a fabulous time.
Fab, fab, fab!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been in Singleton Day Nursery for just over 6-months. She has settled in very well. All staff that work with her knew her and what her needs are. She does lovely activities every day. The menu is varied, and I cannot fault the standard of food. We use cloth nappies, and the nursery is
happy to use them also. Systems and processes are in place so that we always feel like we are involved in our daughter's day (despite being in a pandemic, not entering and masks). My daughter runs in in the morning and is so happy going there, which makes a huge difference to my day.

I recommend this nursery to all my friends. My son has been going here since he was 10-months-old. He has developed strong bonds with the staff; it has also really helped his development and prepared him well for school. My 10-month-old is due to start soon, and it is comforting to know that my son
has such good care at this nursery. I am confident his transition to the nursery will be managed well by the staff.

When my toddler started going, she would scream at the door as she was so nervous; she now tells me on the day how she loves going and playing with her friends.
They've brought her out of her shell and encouraged her speech, which has come along drastically in the months she's been with the nursery;
they've also catered amazingly to her dietary requirements.
I had never given up care for her until now, and I am completely reassured that she is treated with the utmost care, through the phone calls of her being unwell are professional. They've provided such a smooth transition to toddlers to preschool, and now she's prepared for school when she turns three. Extremely happy with the service here at Singleton Day Nursery. Would bring all my children here!

Singleton Day Nursery has welcomed my daughter with open arms. All the staff ensure that the children are greeted with happy, cheerful faces in the morning. My daughter absolutely loves coming to the nursery; the activities are stimulating, and she is so proud to show me her achievements when she brings
home things she has made.
The app provides peace of mind to parents; it is so reassuring to see how they are getting on throughout the day.
Any queries are dealt with, with the utmost professionalism, and all the staff are happy to support any changes to routines and encourage toilet training.
We are so pleased we chose to send our daughter to Singleton and highly recommended them to any of our friends looking for a nursery for their own children.

I

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.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 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
  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 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:

    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 118 number of registered child places is 23.6, which has been reached with 36 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.
