Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic facility with thoughtful, engaged staff that clearly love what they're doing. My daughter gets so excited when she sees the nursery and barely looks back to say goodbye on drop off. Mummy sadness aside, I'm so glad she's in an environment where she is happy and thriving.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl has been attending Paper Moon Day Nursery for a number of years and has grown into a confident child with the excellent support of the staff. We had no hesitation to put our little boy into the nursery once I went back to work. Staff are excellent and are so supportive.


As a family,

we have had struggles and the nursery staff are compassionate and caring. My little girl and boy have fantastic bonds with the staff and are achieving their targets thanks to the staff.


We could not recommend Paper Moon enough.

I love Paper Moon and all the staff. My little one goes 1 day a week normally and is always greeted personally and at the end of the day, is so content. She often doesn't notice I am there to pick her up.
The children are always doing activities with new ones introduced regularly and the updates in
her nursery diary let me see exactly what she has done and eaten that day. Fab nursery, would highly recommend to others.

Review from Matt B (Father of Child) published on 19 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter had to move to a new nursery after one we had chosen closed down suddenly. We looked at reviews of various nurseries around the district and found that Papermoon was our most favourable option. We were invited to a trial session and a look around the nursery. During her trial session
our daughter had so much fun and played with nearly every toy there. That sealed the deal for us.
The staff are all welcoming and interact with every child. They not only offer entertainment, but the EYFS learning, this will instil a solid foundation for their progress into school. The site has ample outdoor activities spread over two play areas.
Neither my wife, nor I, can sing the praises of this particular Papermoon site enough. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for full or part-time childcare in the Mansfield, and surrounding, areas.
Our daughter has now moved onto full time school and will miss the staff and friends that she made.

Our son settled in really well and was welcomed from day one. We are pleased with all the services provided by Paper Moon. Our son will have some lovely memories of nursery when he leaves for full time school. Staff are all friendly and approachable.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is my second child to attend, been using Paper Moon since it opened. Lots of the staff still the same for both children and feel like they have a real connection with them. All staff are lovely, friendly and approachable with any matter. Lots of variety in activities for my daughter to do and keep
her busy. Great purpose built facilities that keep all children safe.

Review from KJ F (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has always enjoyed being at Papermoon and participating in the wonderful activities they have planned. He has made some great friendships with the children and some incredible relationships with the staff there. Especially Rosie! He has developed so well and we’ve been so pleased with how much
effort has been put in by Roger and the others to help with his speech, which has really come along now!


More importantly we know that our son is safe and happy at Papermoon, which helps us to ease our mind about his care whilst we’re at work. We’ve always been contacted with any information to make sure our son’s well-being has been a priority and there is nothing more than that, that we could ask for!
They have been helpful with the flexibility they have shown us towards arranging his days with them, when he have had to make changes or been let down by others for his childcare last minute.


Many compliments to the staff and establishment on the wonderful events that they always have taking place, like the fundraising, fancy-dress and fayres. The effort taken to provide the children with new sensory experiences is evident. The displays are consistently refreshed, personal to the children and engaging. The building is always clean, tidy and smart and the meals look healthy and appetising! All of this hard work, further evidenced by their fantastic Ofsted grading!!


From one set of happy and grateful parents......Thank you!

Our twins joined Papermoon 2 months ago and, from day 1, have never wanted to leave. The staff are warm and accommodating and my children talk about them often outside of nursery. I can't stress enough how happy we are with the service we receive and the ever-apparent love shown to our little ones.
We cannot praise the place enough.

My daughter has attended Paper Moon since June 2015 and she loves it. She often asks to go to nursery on the days she doesn't normally go.
She has made lots of friends with the children and the staff. She has learnt a lot and she is coming along all the time, and I believe nursery is partly responsible
for this.
I would highly recommend Paper Moon Day Nursery to anyone who would ask!!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.936)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.936) 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 47 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 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 4.936 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Forest Town is calculated as follows: ( (527 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 563 Ratings = 4.936
  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 47 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 47 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.
