Review from B D (Mother of Child) published on 4 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Zipadees is a lovely nursery. My daughter has been coming here since she was 8 months old starting in baby room and is now currently in preschool. She has come on leaps and bounds with her development and loves going to nursery. She has made loads of friends from the nursery and has got a really good
relationship with the practitioners, especially her key worker. The nursery keeps us up to date with what they have done each day, with what they have eaten and potty training progress so we don't have to worry when dropping our child off, we know that they will keep us informed of everything that day. We love seeing the weekly observations to see how well her development is progressing.

My son has been coming to Zipadees 3 days a week since he was 10 months old and he loves it. The staff are professional and enthusiastic and the facilities and play areas are great. The nursery has been able to accommodate a vegan diet with no issues and I am happy with the nutritional meals he is provided
with. I would recommend to other parents looking for a nursery in Leek.

So so happy I decided to send my little girl to this nursery! The staff are so accommodating and welcoming and support my daughter amazingly with her learning journey, they always welcome her in with a smile. They have such a wide range of activities that the children get involved in, great food and
the staff constantly keep us informed on the app what she has been doing or eaten etc for that day. Always helpful if wanting or needing advice or unsure on anything. My little boy will definitely be attending when he is old enough.
I 100 percent recommend!!

Fantastic team, 100% trust them with the care of my son and have been supportive through some challenging personal times.
I live over 30 minutes away but still use the nursery, as I've used others out of the area and they are just not a patch on Zipadee Day Nursery.

Zipadee is a lovely nursery. My son loves coming to nursery and I feel when he is here all his needs are met. They have supported his development and always do great exit evictees to help child development. My son enjoys all the meals and feedback from the nursery says he eats everything. I enjoy receiving
daily observations and a daily diary regarding his day.

With having no family in the area, Zipadee Day Nursery has been like a second family! The management and staff are all amazing. You can see how they enjoy working here and are very caring to the children. All my three children have been at the nursery and I wouldn't have had them going anywhere else.
I highly recommend the nursery to everyone with babies/toddlers. Thank you to all the staff for everything you have done for my children and the family.

A wonderful nursery for our girl to come to with such helpful and genuinely caring staff. Excellent learning activities during the day. The food menu is great and there isn't a lot our girl now won't eat. Thank you so much for all of your hard work.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.970)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.970) out of 10 for Zipadee Day Nursery Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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 4.970 for Zipadee Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (419 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 432 Ratings = 4.97
  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 Zipadee Day Nursery Ltd is based on 36 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 57 number of registered child places is 11.4, which has been reached with 36 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.
