Can't recommend Paper Moon in Forest Town enough, my son has loved his time there and he's come on so much with all the help he's received. All the staff has been absolutely brilliant and I can't thank them enough. I'm totally gutted he will be leaving in September but I can't wait till my youngest
is old enough to go there and has the same amazing experience.

Brilliant teachers. My little one has progressed unbelievably since being at this nursery. Wouldn't have wanted him to be anywhere else! He's now going to big school and is sad to be leaving everyone behind!

Staff at Paper Moon Forest Town are brilliant. They are so encouraging and caring, they really take the time to get to know children individually. Both my boys have really enjoyed their time there. Communication from the Nursery is excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to family
and friends.

Since my daughter has attended Paper Moon Forest Town, she has loved every single minute of it! A particular member of staff has been exceptional in making sure that she is well looked after and continuously entertained - her development has come on leaps and bounds. She loves all the ladies and keeps
that smile beaming throughout the day. They have made us feel at ease, during such a testing time and have accommodated our days to fit around work when things seemed impossible. I would highly recommend, not just as a nursery but as a nurturing and caring place that goes above and beyond. Thank you again for making my daughter's first time at nursery, an exciting time for her, keep it up!

Thank you so much for the love and care you have given my daughter since she started coming to Paper Moon. The staff are lovely and very approachable.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have attended this nursery over the last 8 years, most recently my son who has attended since he was 5 months old and is shortly due to turn 4.
I cannot fault the level of care he has received and continues to receive from all staff and management.
He has developed a strong bond
with a number of staff in addition to wonderful friendships with fellow children. The staff have paid extra attention to his dietary requirements and the kitchen staff always ensure he is provided with highly nutritious meals and snacks and alternatives are always provided when he cannot eat the same as the other children. With his fussy appetite to contend with, the team have really helped break down some of his aversions to food.
His key worker has worked really hard to help him with his writing and number recognition and his progress is really starting to show. This is all down to the time and patience they dedicate on a daily basis. I cannot thank the whole team enough for what they do.

I think Paper Moon is a fantastic nursery where both my kids have completely thrived. The staff and nursery manager are fantastic and are lovely with both by little ones and us. I would recommend them to all family and friends. My kids have become confident, emotionally expressive and capable children.

My 3-year-old daughter attends Paper Moon for 15 hours per week over 3 days, as did her older sister. My eldest daughter loved her time here and when it was time to send my youngest to nursery I was happy to send her here too, knowing that the staff had taken excellent care previously.
My child enjoys
the activities available, especially the construction toys and the outside area. I always see her busy playing at pick up times, which is reassuring as a parent.
There is plenty of variety of food and even my one-time fussy eater has broadened her food choices since starting here.
I especially like how each child is assigned a key person who gives feedback on a regular basis. I have no doubt that if my child or I had a problem whilst here, it would be dealt with satisfactorily and efficiently. Staff are friendly and engaging both to my child and to myself. This nursery is well run by the manager who takes a keen interest in my child and often takes time to chat to us both before we leave.

The staff at Paper Moon Day Nursery in forest town are absolutely amazing. Our daughter was so upset when she first started going to nursery because it was different and didn’t want us to leave her there, but the staff really helped her settle in and now she loves going and skips into nursery. And has
come along with her development really well.

We love Paper Moon that much that our second child now attends. She only started last month but is already settled and forming relationships with her key worker, other staff members and children. We know that both our children are safe, happy and well cared for here.
Our eldest absolutely loves coming
here and would quite happily attend all day, every day if she could. She always speaks highly of the staff- especially the key workers that she has had throughout her time here.
We recommend Paper Moon to any parent or carer looking for a day nursery.

We've been going to Paper Moon for the last 8 years or so, and in that time we have found all the staff amazing. Nothing is to much trouble. I felt both my sons were in the best care I could find while at work, and it put them in an amazing position when they transitioned up to big school. I would highly
recommend them!

Paper Moon Day Nursery have been really good with helping my little boy settle into nursery life, very helpful, always helping in every way they can. I really appreciate all they do for my boy and how far he is coming along since being there. They're also great at accommodating when I need extra days.
My boy loves it and all the staff, he has really close bonds with most of them ... we thank you so much.

Paper Moon has been nothing but brilliant with my little boy, we feel so welcome as soon as we walk through the door, the staff are very welcoming and approachable and I always look forward to seeing what he has

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.948)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.948) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Forest Town 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 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.948 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Forest Town is calculated as follows: ( (420 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 443 Ratings = 4.948
  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 Paper Moon Day Nursery - Forest Town is based on 37 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6, which has been reached with 37 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.
