All of the staff are very approachable and very friendly. My son is in pre-school and occasionally has trouble settling however the staff are amazing they encourage him and constantly praise him when he goes in without being upset. He has settled fantastically and the staff are to thank for this. Amazing
nursery and fabulous management/staff, everyone is very attentive and always have time for parents and children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My granddaughter has been with Learning Journeys for two years, during this time we had concerns with her behaviour and learning ability. Learning Journeys listened to our concerns and quickly arranged a SENCO appointment. After the SENCO made suggestions, the nursery implemented them. Due to this,
my grandchild is ready for her next school at an excellent point. Communication and contact is excellent. The meals offered are planned and healthy. The nursery is well equipped and the activities well planned.

I have found the staff to be professional and caring people, who will always take time to talk to you and assist in any way they can. My son always looks forward to going and enjoys every minute he is there. He can't wait to see teachers and friends, and the environment is welcoming. He also enjoys
the food provided, usually twice.

Review from A H (Father of Child) published on 23 August 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a father of a baby girl who had joined Learning Journeys Daycare, I'd say that we were so lucky that we found that great nursery. From day one, there was great positive energy and attitude from all staff. My little one loved her nursery and loved going there 'without any tears' she liked her time
there and her friends. The management really care about the nursery standards and every little detail. The staff we dealt with were always smiling happy faces. We were always updated with everything and anything related to my little one. Highly recommended nursery, more than excellent. Thanks.

I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you for everything that you have done for my son in the short period of time that he has been with you. He absolutely loves nursery and the confidence you have built for him and us as parents has been vital. All the staff have made us feel so
welcome and we feel as parents we can chat to staff about anything we need to. I would highly recommend you to anyone and would definitely be back in the future if we ever need childcare services again. Thank you again for everything it really has been a pleasure attending Learning Journeys Daycare, just wish we came a lot sooner than we did.

From the day our child started at the daycare the staff were welcoming and friendly towards myself and my child. He settled in immediately and has made lots of friends. Communication has always been excellent, any bumps or scrapes have always been reported promptly and nothing has ever seemed to be
too much trouble. We are happy with the progress he has made throughout his time here. I would highly recommend this daycare. Thank you to all of the staff for all your hard work and kindness.

My 3-year-old son has been attending this nursery for several months and is a completely different child, which is all thanks to the staff that are very helpful and supportive. Always updated with my son’s progress. Management is very easily approachable and always helpful. I would highly recommend.
Clean nursery.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My child has been attending the nursery for 2 years. In the baby room, all was going well and he seemed to be developing well. My son was moved into the toddler room and the problems started. These include -
1 - Staff sitting around on iPads, children unsupervised at times,
2 - My child was hurt by
another child whilst playing, staff unable to give clear reasons why and classed it as an accident which I disagreed with.
3 - Nursery closed without prior notice or any communication.
4 - Owner and management never round to see parents.

Myself and my son love the nursery. They have taught him lots and helped me with trying him with different and healthier food. The staff are very friendly and always helpful. But I do think they should give leaflets/newsletters out regarding trips etc rather than calling up for information.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.953)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.953) out of 10 for Learning Journeys Daycare 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.953 for Learning Journeys Daycare is calculated as follows: ( (264 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.953
  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 Learning Journeys Daycare is based on 23 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 23 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.
