Review from Eleanor M (Mother of Child) published on 8 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended Lilliput two days a week since he was 8 months old and I cannot fault the nursery. I chose Lilliput as it is much smaller than other local nurseries and seemed a great environment for a younger baby (very clean, calming and not too chaotic!) and most importantly the staff are absolutely
lovely. The children spend plenty of time outdoors playing and doing different activities and I get to see the photos and comments taken during nursery time on the Tapestry app - it is nice to see what he gets up to. The care he receives really is fab - he seems to be thriving here.

This is a fabulous nursery with a real ‘family’ atmosphere. The staff are so nice and regularly go above and beyond. They clearly love their jobs. Our little one is into his fourth year and always enjoys his days there. We know he is always cared for, given love and attention, is learning something
new each day and being really well prepared for school. Highly recommend.

I'm very happy with the nursery, my daughter loves it there, the staff are great and very approachable. Since starting in May 2019 I have seen an improvement in my child with eating and she is starting to write now as well.
The cost is reasonable compared to many other nurseries with clear fees and
the food they provide is of a good standard which my daughter now eats pretty much all of, including salad and vegetables which she never did for 3 yrs at her previous nursery. Overall a great place and I would recommend.

I have used many nurseries over the years for my kids and Lilliput is bar far the best. Well-trained, caring staff, clean premises and a real focus on the development of the children.

Review from Jo H (Mother of Child) published on 8 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attended Lilliput Nursery from September 2018 to February 2019. The only reason why he is no longer attending Lilliput is due to moving house. When researching new nurseries, it made me realise how special Lilliput is as a nursery. They were supportive from the initial settling in period up to
starting potty training. My son was in the little learners' room of which the staff were excellent. My son still talks fondly about his key workers alongside everybody there including the chef. The tapestry online service was also well received and parents were encouraged to upload images and events so that staff can talk about home. My son's speech development, attention span and sharing skills have all been increased. Thank you, Lilliput for developing and supporting my son's first nursery experience.

My child has been with Lilyput Day Nursery since he had been 2 years old. I am very pleased and impressed with how much he has developed and within the last year, I, as a parent, was concerned with my child's development skills and progress before he started but I'm very happy to say how much my son
loves coming to nursery and how much he has shone. I would highly recommend Lilyput Day Nursery to any parent.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our little boy has been attending Liliput for nearly a year now. We looked at a lot of nurseries in the Kings Heath area before deciding and it was our favourite by far. Since starting, he has moved from the baby room to little learners and the transition was made very smoothly to ensure he had time
to adjust. The staff are lovely, the rooms are spacious, bright and welcoming. Most importantly, the kids are happy!

Review from Clare S (Mother of Child) published on 30 October 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Lilliput Day Nursery is incredibly important to myself, my son and my family.
They have nurtured my son’s physical, intellectual and emotional development since he started at eight months old.
All staff have been like family members and so supportive through various changes to our routines.
They
have been a massive support to all of the challenges of parenting from sleeping and eating to toileting and understanding emotions.
We know that he eats well every day and always has so much fun with every kind of activity imaginable.


The workshops have been a wonderful chance for us to be involved in his nursery experience and observe his play and learning with new friends and it’s such a lovely feeling.


We know he will have a lovely day when we drop him off and picking him up is the best time of day as I can see what fun he has had.


I highly recommend this nursery.

Review from Emma L (Mother of Child) published on 18 October 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter started here when she was one and has enjoyed it ever since! I was struck by how caring the environment is, how all the staff know all the children and I mean more than just their names! They genuinely care about the children, find opportunities to develop them, lots of imaginative play
and most importantly warmth. There is a lovely atmosphere here and my daughter loves going in, which is the biggest recommendation for me! I love the way they share updates on tapestry, it is great seeing how she is getting on. I'm a big fan of the morning coffee and breakfast snack for parents too! If you want genuine warmth and care then visit here!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.898)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.898) out of 10 for Little Memories 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.898 for Little Memories Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (150 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.898
  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 Little Memories Day Nursery is based on 14 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 14 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.
