My firstborn, now 7 years old, and my secondborn, currently going, loved there and have been always happy to be there. Lovely staff, always understanding and helpful with both my kids. A lot of variety of activities for the kids.

Currently my middle child attends the nursery. They saw my eldest right through to starting school and he is thriving. My youngest will be starting soon. I have never had any issues within the nursery setting and any concerns have been addressed immediately

I have two boys in Wisbech Day Nursery and they have both exceeded expectations thanks to the girls who run it. My eldest is in his final year at the nursery and they have been so patient with him and his extra needs. He started when he was 2 years old, wasn't talking or anything and with the help of
the nursery he got diagnosed with Autism and they have helped him come out of his shell and he is now speaking, can count, do colours, maths etc. They have a massive garden that the kids can go play in, and even when the weather is bad they make inside entertaining. My boys are excited to go to nursery and sad to leave because the girls just make their whole day's experience happy and fun. I recommend the nursery to everyone I know as it literally is the best place in town.

Wisbech Day Nursery is very reliable (and is open for long hours on weekdays) which is a very valuable asset for full-time working parents like us. My little girl goes happily to nursery every day, with a big smile on her face during both drop-off and pick up times. That shows how great and safe she
feels at the Nursery. Overall we are really happy with the service provided to us the parents and the care provided to our little girl.

I cannot express how much of an incredible job all the staff do. Before starting only 4 months ago my son was shy but has really come out since being at nursery. The staff are all incredibly friendly and professional and have allowed my son to develop at his own pace which is important for a very premature
baby. Thank you everyone!

Great nursery, has accommodated to my child's needs and development, really friendly staff and always available if you want to talk in depth about your child. Staff very knowledgeable about child's needs and they all work extremely hard. Have previously sent my child to childminders and a different
nursery and this is the only place my child has settled and is happy to be left.

My child comes from abroad. With no English language history. They actually started to teach him from zero. But now he is better. In just 4 months they've transformed him. Again when he wakes up in the morning he is happy to go again to school. He doesn't feel isolated because he is black.

We've had such a lovely experience since our little boy has started nursery. The staff are so welcoming and friendly, couldn't ask for much more. Our son is thriving and you can see Wisbech Day Nursery team are working hard to ensure the children are happy, safe and learning through play. The girls
are very supportive with any concerns. Our son went from being a picky eater to being the best eater since being at Wisbech Day Nursery and love the fact staff allow the children to self-serve there snacks and lunches, he loves the independence. Thank you.

Staff seem very friendly. We get to find out what the kids have been up to during the day. My daughter seems to really enjoy it and always looks forward to coming in. I wish the communication was a little better so that I knew exactly what both my daughters did, ate etc. I would definitely recommend
this nursery to any parent!

Excellent communication from all members of staff I've met, very professional and have been excellent in settling my daughter into the nursery. My daughter is very comfortable with all the ladies who greet her into the nursery in the morning and is happy to go each morning. They accommodate my daughter's
needs very well and have been great at implementing advice, supporting my daughter's needs and communicating with me about what they're doing/going to be doing while she attends.

My daughter has attended Wisbech Day Nursery for just over 2 years now and she absolutely loves it. The staff that work here have been amazing, and she loves going. Just knowing that she has so much fun, learning and playing makes leaving her in their care so much easier. My daughter always has nice
things to say about the nursery and the friends that she has made especially her key workers. The activities they do are brilliant and engaging, through her going here she has become such a confident and social little girl.
The workers here have also been an amazing support for both myself and my daughter when our family dynamic changed and the support they gave us both was brilliant.

This is my second time, with this nursery. Again very positive. We are coming from a multilingual family. My 2-year-old didn't talk. With nursery help he has started to talk. Seems like he is talking more and more every day he comes home from nursery. He has learned to count and knows colours. He absolutely
adores nursery, and always asks me to go to nursery even when it is his days off. Staff are very helpful. Always answer all questions and help out in all ways.

My little boy has been going to Wisbech Day Nursery since he was 9 months old. This nursery is absolutely fantastic. My little boy is always happy to go and is so happy when he comes home telling me all about his fun day. Their food meal is amazing and my little one always says how yummy the food is.
All the staff are fantastic and are always willing to help with anything. In my experience you can't ask for a better nursery for your little ones. I recommend 100%.

The staff provide a welcoming and caring environment for my child. I feel my child is safe within their care and that they develop children and we get so much more out of nursery than just 'looking after children'. A credit to their professionalism and genuine caring nature.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.889)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.889) out of 10 for Wisbech Day Nursery 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.889 for Wisbech Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (240 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.889
  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 Wisbech Day Nursery is based on 22 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 22 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.
