Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Ladybird Lane is an amazing nursery, with such great values at its core. The staff do so many activities with the children each day to make learning experiences fun and enjoyable. They are so approachable, friendly and caring it makes it much easier for little ones to settle in. They go above and beyond
daily and nothing is ever any hassle to them.
Overall we rate Ladybird Lane 10/10 and couldn’t recommend more.

Ladybird Lane is an excellent daycare/nursery facility and I couldn't recommend the staff and environment enough! They provide fantastic care, activities and support to both the children and families. My son and daughter love their time here and always come out smiling with plenty of stories to tell!
I wouldn't leave my babies anywhere else. Staff are friendly, the environment is warm and inviting for the children and all measures are taken to make it safe and secure for the little ones! My son is an EpiPen holder, all training was provided to ensure his safety using this and even the menu changed to suit his needs on the days he is in! You are updated on their progress throughout the day and they are always quick in replying when you send messages/calls etc. giving you peace of mind! 5*

The level of care given to my daughter has been excellent, she has come on leaps and bounds since starting in July 2023 aged 11 months. She absolutely loves going in every day and has the best of fun with all the staff and other children.
We will be putting our second child in full time in November
without any hesitation and I would recommend this nursery to anyone in the area.

The staff and facilities at Ladybird Lane are amazing, I couldn't think of anywhere else we would get the same service and care for our little boy. The activities they have for the children are fabulous and our child has continued to thrive.

Thank you so much for everything you all do, keep up the amazing work!

Ladybird Lane is an excellent Nursery School! The staff are wonderful with the children and they really go that extra mile so all the children have a great learning experience. The range of activities they can squeeze in during such a short space of time is unbelievable. So impressed and would highly
recommend to any parent.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Lady Bird Lane is an excellent daycare and nursery, staff are very warm and welcoming with children. Always happy to provide an adapted level of care to each child's needs. Staff take the time to get to know the children so they can help them develop their skills in areas which need more support and
know how to support and offer comfort when needed. High level of effort and thought put into activities for the children with lots of day trips and visitors to the nursery giving the children access to experiences to build on social skills. A true family atmosphere which is inclusive and welcoming to all

I have two children who attend Ladybird Lane, they both settled so well and thoroughly enjoy their days here each week. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. There are always great activities and artwork getting sent home to show what they've been up to during the day. I really like the app
which is used to note all relevant information such as naps/meals/photos etc.

Ladybird Lane is absolutely fantastic the staff are wonderful and have tremendously helped my son adjust to the new world of preschool! My son was very nervous but thanks to the girls here he loves coming to preschool. The staff are very understanding and very accommodating. Highly recommend! 10/10.
Ladybird lane should be called Miracle Lane my son went from sobbing at the idea of going to school to telling me to hurry up to get to school he smiles going in and big smiles coming out!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have two children at the nursery aged 4 (Pre-School room) and 20 months (Waddler room). My eldest son has previously been enrolled in 2 other nurseries including the leading nursery franchise in the Northwest of England. I can say, hands down, Ladybird Lane is the best daycare I have experienced.
The Manager is excellent and the Head of Pre School always goes above and beyond. The head of the Waddlers room is also a lovely lady and I feel very reassured handing over my baby into her care.


All the staff however are warm, and friendly and they are always available to discuss any concerns I may have. It is clear to me that my children adore the staff at Ladybird Lane. They also make excellent use of the App so I feel well informed about what the children get up to during the day and I am able to see what they are eating / how they are sleeping, as well as lots of photos to reassure me they are having a great day. Highly recommend!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.988)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.988) out of 10 for Ladybird Lane 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.988 for Ladybird Lane Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (332 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.988
  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 Ladybird Lane Day Nursery is based on 28 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 28 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.
