My son has been here for 5 months now and loves it so much he doesn't want us to pick him up most days!
While we had a few issues at the start, these were quickly, compassionately and professionally dealt with.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter absolutely loves attending Barbars. Since attending, she has come on leaps and bounds, it’s really clear to see.
She settled in really quickly and this is purely credited to the staff and how they do everything they can to make every child feel welcome.
I get regular updates on her throughout
the day which I like very much.
I would not hesitate to recommend Barbars to anyone.
Huge thanks to the staff for looking after my little girl so well.

Really good staff, friendly and respectful. My daughter enjoys going to the nursery and the staff is brilliant. I am very happy with the arrangements although my child is a fussy eater and they are trying their best to give my child the right nutrition.

My son went to nursery here and was very happy. He was free to be himself and always enjoyed his sessions here. He was well prepared for school when he left at the end of summer. My daughter is now in the baby room and the staff make her feel like it's a home away from home. I couldn't be happier with
the care they give her.

My children thoroughly enjoy coming to the nursery, my one child can be particularly difficult when meeting new people and takes a while to adjust. The nursery staff have taken their time to get to know her and she now has her firm favourites and no tears at the door.

I have nothing but positive things to say about the staff at this nursery. They have gone above and beyond trying to make my daughter feel as comfortable as possible and trying to help her reach her pathway goals. She has been there for three weeks now and loves it.

Such a great nursery. Both my children have attended BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley, with one of my children still attending. Staff are wonderful and helpful. My son thoroughly enjoyed his time there, before moving on to primary school. My daughter gets excited on every nursery day. Great range of activities
during her sessions and regular updates on what your child is doing throughout the day. Highly recommend BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley.

I have nothing but praise for BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley. My grandson has come to them as a looked after child. They have been so caring and nurturing in what has been a very new and confusing period for him and myself.
They are understanding, and very invested in making his time there happy,
safe and educational. He loves going and can't wait to get there in the mornings. His speech and understanding since going there as been amazing and I am very very grateful for the wonderful caring team.

My baby has attended BarBar since he was nine weeks old - he is now sixteen months. He is thriving at nursery and I could not ask for a more homely, loving environment for my baby to be in whilst I work. He has amazing experiences and activities and his needs and routine are always met and followed.
I can't thank the staff enough for the outstanding care and endless love they give to my pride and joy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have had several children attend BarBars, and all of them have loved the setting and the staff very much. The children have developed speech and social skills quickly thanks to the wonderful activities and fun play given to them. The online service lets parents see what the children have been doing,
learning, eating as well as nappy changes and general well being. I have no hesitation recommending BarBars to anyone.

All the staff have been brilliant with my toddler. He only goes once a week but loves it. The daily updates on the app are a great idea and bring a smile to my face when I see it. My son has learnt a lot since coming here and is very polite.

We have had such a positive experience with our child starting nursery so far, it was quite daunting, to begin with as it's our first time and it's hard being away from them so long but the nursery has been incredible and has helped ease our worry of being apart so much. Nothing is too much for them
to do and they are always so accommodating, I love the updates we get it's so lovely to see our child thrive and develop.

My youngest daughter attends BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley in the toddler room. When she started there her speech was a little behind but she’s absolute thriving here and it has improved so much! The staff here are all so friendly, professional and approachable. They’re brilliant with my daughter and
she cannot wait to go in, and gets very excited when it’s time to put her uniform on! My eldest who is now at school attended pre-school here and equally enjoyed her time here. The food served here is excellent, really nutritious and she always goes in for seconds! The feedback we receive is great, there are constant updates and information available on their app. I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Lovely nursery and preschool. Friendly staff who are always greeting the kids with a smile and taking a real interest in them and what’s going on at home. Lots of different activities planned during their day which my daughter loves and great communication to let parents know what’s happened throughout
the day. Such as activities, meals and if an accident has happened. There is a lovely outdoor space which is my daughter's favourite part so she tells me, with lots of things to do and explore. My 4-year old loves it here and she is going to be sad leaving this year when she goes to school. I am looking forward to my 5-month old attending BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley in the future. I can’t fault BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley in any way at all.

I’ve had a pleasant experience dealing with the setting from the start, the manager and staff are great at relaying any information regarding the wellness and observation of my child, plus relevant news and updates with the nursery by using an app. My child is thriving and happy as he is able to experience
various sensory activities and has the opportunity to play outside and play with others. I feel confident that he is going to be well looked after every time we drop him off for the day.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.112)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.112) out of 10 for BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 4.783 for BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley is calculated as follows: ( (18 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 4.783
  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 3.329 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for BarBar Nursery Ltd - Quedgeley is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 49 number of registered child places is 9.8. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.8 = 0.204
  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.
