It's such a comfort knowing that when we leave our daughter with Caerleon, she will be cared for, entertained and educated to the highest standard.
The staff love her and it's great to hear about their fun-filled day when we pick her up.

Review from Sophie D (Mother of Child) published on 9 April 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been in the nursery since 9 months old and has enjoyed every room so far. All of the staff are very friendly and clearly get to know all of the children individually. All accidents/illnesses have been reported very quickly and honestly.
My daughter really enjoys the food and always
eats well. The activities are very varied and access to Jump soft play is a big bonus!
The staff have helped her develop every step of the way, including sitting, standing and walking and building confidence. Opening hours are very important to me. My daughter always seems very happy at nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Caerleon since she was 9 months old. She has settled so well into each room thanks to their amazing way with the children. She loves her current group (pre-school) and has truly thrived. Moreover, they made potty training so much less stressful than it could be. Their expertise
in this regard has been amazing and such a help. They are professional, friendly and show a genuine interest in my child, which means I am more than happy to drop her off for the day as I always know she will be safe and happy.

My child has been going to Caerleon for 14 months now. He absolutely loves it.


When he started going to the nursery, he had a difficult transition time, however the staff at Caerleon were extremely helpful and professional.


He learns a lot in the nursery and has lots of fun.

Caerleon is a fantastic nursery. Both my children attend twice a week. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the boys love going. Their day is structured and full of approachable learning. The feedback at the end of the day is great to hear what they have been up to, eaten, sleep etc. Wouldn't hesitate
to recommend in a heartbeat.

Review from Rachel W (Mother of Child) published on 21 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a viewing of the nursery and having my queries answered by very helpful staff I placed my daughter in Caerleon last summer. She started the settling in sessions at around 6 months old which were fab and were tailored around her with gradual increases in time and frequency. She attends twice a
week in the baby room and is happy to go to the girls when I leave her for the day and is usually happy playing when I pick her up. She has come on leaps and bounds since attending the nursery and has formed fab relationships with the staff who can’t do enough.


I feel comfortable talking with the staff about any concerns or questions that I have. At pick up time, I’m always given a break down of my daughters day, her food and sleep patterns and any activities that she’s completed. A parents evening was held recently where I was given a report, shown my daughters progress.


I would recommend Caerleon to others as the staff are brilliant and my daughter is well looked after.

The staff here at Caerleon Child Care Cardiff are second to none, kind, caring, nurturing and compassionate yet professional and focussed to ensure your child has a safe and enjoyable environment to learn and grow.
I have never once had to worry about leaving my two girls here at Caerleon when I returned
to work. Any anxieties or concerns that you may have about leaving your little one for the first time are instantly put to one side as the friendly and competent staff look after your treasured little ones as if they were their own. Days are jam-packed with fun activities and the children love it. Thank you for being so amazing Caerleon Child Care Cardiff.

Thank you to all the staff at Caerleon Childcare in caring for my now 3-year-old twins. They came to you at 15 months old and left just before Christmas as they have now started nursery/primary school.
I would just like to say a big thank you to all the staff in helping my boys develop into the lovely
little men they are. They have developed the skills they require to progress at primary school and you have helped them in doing this.
They loved every minute of being in your care and never looked back when I dropped them off!
A big thanks from us all!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.623)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.623) out of 10 for Caerleon Child Care Cardiff 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 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 4.877 for Caerleon Child Care Cardiff is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.877
  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 4.746 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Caerleon Child Care Cardiff is based on 17 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 114 number of registered child places is 22.8. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.8 = 0.746
  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.
