We are very happy with the care Eva receives at the nursery. She is always well looked after, and it gives us great peace of mind knowing she is in such a safe and nurturing environment.
Communication with the team is clear and consistent, and they have provided all the support Eva has needed at every
stage of her development. The staff are always friendly, approachable, and genuinely caring.
We particularly appreciate the regular feedback we receive, which helps us stay informed about Eva's progress. The team is also open to suggestions, which makes us feel valued and involved.
Overall, we highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a supportive and caring setting for their child.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter used to be very shy and reserved but since she started nursery at Daisy Chain, she's beginning to come out of her shell and she is also learning to be confident.. I love how the staff give updates on my daughter's activities throughout the day and how she is progressing daily.
Their warm
reception to the kids and parents is second to none. Due to this, my daughter wishes to go to school everyday and moreover, she wishes to stay and play for longer time.
I wish they had a reception and primary school as well so that my child would not need to go anywhere else..
Cheers to all the amazing staff there, especially in Sprites2..
Bless you all for your hard work and dedication.

I am very happy with my overall experience with Daisy Chain. The staff are so caring and attentive towards the children and both of my children have loved attending.
Its obvious to see that the staff are genuinely passionate about supporting the children and they have helped both of my children gain
so much confidence. I can see how much effort goes into ensuring the children are in a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment to ensure they meet their full potential.
Communication with staff through the app and during pick up is good and I feel very well informed about what my child has been doing, how much he has eaten and his general wellbeing while attending the nursery. Staff are happy to answer any questions during hand overs and emails are always responded to quickly.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a supportive setting for their children.

This nursery is great. My son has grown so much here. He has his challenges, but the nursery has worked so hard to help my son. My son is fond of Donna, Amanda, and Jess and is always happy to tell me about the fun he's had with them throughout the day.
The communication is great with both parents.
I would recommend this nursery to family and friends.

All four of my children attended Daisy Chain Nursery, and I couldn't be happier with our experience. The staff are caring, patient, and wonderful with the children, creating a safe and nurturing environment. I'm so grateful for the support they've given my family and would highly recommend them to others.

What an amazing nursery this is, the staff go above and beyond with the children, they are highly skilled always greet parents with a smile and time to discuss the sessions at the end of the day, children learn and develop independence at the steering preparing them for primary school, there is so much
space for the children and various rooms to explore in the building, the staff is the same staff no changes no one leaves which shows the great environment daisy chains offers. Daily updates given on the app they blur out other children's faces so no risk of someone having pictures of your child. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery setting to anyone. Thank you guys your all amazing

I cannot speak highly enough of this nursery. The care, attention, and genuine kindness shown by all the staff are truly exceptional. From the very beginning, they have created a safe, nurturing, and loving environment where my son feels happy, secure, and excited to learn each day.
The team goes above
and beyond to support every child's development, and it is clear how passionate they are about what they do. I have seen such wonderful progress in my son's confidence, communication, and social skills, which means so much to me as a parent.
The nursery is always clean, well-organised, and full of engaging activities that encourage creativity and learning through play. Communication with parents is also excellent, and I always feel informed and reassured.
I am truly grateful for everything the staff do, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring and high-quality environment for their child.

My daughter has been going to daisy chain for just over a year now and she absolutely loves it. When she was in Keira's class she was coming home and telling me her best friends were Kiera and Becky which I thought was so sweet.
She is now in Donna's class and is really enjoying it. She is coming
on leaps and bounds and loves telling me what she has been getting up to.
All the staff are really lovely and I couldn't ask for a better nursery for my child to go to.
Thank you Daisy Chain

I have been with daisy chains for 11 years (with all 3 of my children) right from the start the staff have always been lovely with my children, the live and care they show and give children is amazing! My child who is there now is highly autistic & they do everything they can to support him and his
needs as they do many other children who attend too. We are always kept upto date with everything from care to getting to see what they've been upto. Staff are always polite and friendly to deal with too, premises are always kept as secure and safe as possible which is important in this day. I couldn't ever think of my children going anywhere else, this is such a great nursery

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Daisy Chain Pre-School 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.859 for Daisy Chain Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (277 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 320 Ratings = 4.859
  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 Daisy Chain Pre-School is based on 27 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 27 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.
