Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Vantage Park is a wonderful nursery. The staff are all so caring, I always feel reassured being able to drop my children off knowing they are in the best care. The children engage in lots of learning opportunities and there is a real focus on promoting social skills too. They do forest school every
week and the children also have the opportunity to bring things in for show and tell themes. The food is very good and both my children eat well there. The nursery provides exciting extracurricular activities such as a sparkler event for bonfire night, leavers performances for the preschool group and lots of celebrations throughout the year. We couldn't be happier with our choice of setting.

My daughter love this nursery and she loves all of the kind, helpful and lovely staff that work there. My daughter always loves telling us about her amazing days she has there, they do loads of fun activities to keep the kids having fun and learning, it's the BEST choice in nursery you can make. Plus
the kids eat better there than in a 5 star restaurant, the food always smells amazing.
Reply from David Wiggam, Director at Vantage Park Day NurseryThank you for your wonderful review. Our staff work so hard to make every day special and we are lucky to have two talented nursery cooks.

From the very first contact with Vantage park we have been impressed!
Our son started when he was one and found the settling in quite tricky. The girls arranged a number of settling sessions with us to ensure he was really comfortable before starting his full days which was really comforting for everyone,
especially as a first time mum nervous to leave her baby!
After several settling sessions I came to collect my Son and one of the girls let me have a peak into the room and he was happy and settled, which was amazing to see! From that moment on my son has absolutely loved attending Vantage Park. He's 3 now and in the pre school room 3 days a week. He runs in to see his friends, he's built really good relationships with his key workers and you can tell they genuinely care about your child.
He loves forest school and all the outdoor activities. Couldn't recommend the nursery enough!

My 13 month old daughter settled really great into the under 2's & now waltzes in without looking back! She eats lots of lovely food & is excited every week to go. Being new to nursery it's been a learning curve for us both & VDPN are always there to answer any questions.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the moment we first toured Vantage Park, we knew it was the right place for our baby. We were so nervous about leaving him with anyone, especially strangers, but we had a gut feeling we could trust them straight away. Our little boy has now been attending Vantage Park for 4 months & we know
we made the right decision. As his mother, I really struggled in the early days with drop off, but the staff at Vantage Park made a worrying time so much easier. We knew he was in good hands & that he was being well cared for. Those tough days are now a distant memory & we can drop him off knowing he's spending the day having fun. Every member of staff is friendly, approachable, kind & they genuinely care about him. The staff in the under 2's have exceeded all our expectations, they know our son so well - they know his interests, what he likes to eat, when he's happy, tired or having a bad day. He is learning many new skills & developing so fast, we can hardly keep up. Thank you Vantage Park :)
Reply from David Wiggam, Director at Vantage Park Day NurseryThank you for your very honest review. Our staff like to work very closely with our families and provide reassurance from the earliest stage that nursery is a good place for children to socialise and develop.

The nursery is an excellent setting, my daughter recently started school but Vantage prepared her for school amazingly well. She made a lovely group of friends and loved all of the staff. Everyone is friendly and supportive, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a setting for their little one.
My
son is currently at Vantage and he loves it too. It feels like activities are really adapted to suit children's preferences and development. The staff are currently supporting us with potty training which is a massive help!


Communication is always clear and we are very happy with our nursery experience!

Reply from David Wiggam, Director at Vantage Park Day NurseryThank you for your feedback and review. It is reassuring for the staff that those preparations for the next stages make a difference.

Our son has been attending Vantage Park for 3 months and we are so happy with how he has settled in so far. As to be expected, as he is our first born, we were all feeling nervous and apprehensive about him starting but, the team who work at Vantage Park could not have been more lovely and supportive
in putting any of our worries at ease. 3 months on, he is thriving and genuinely seems to love every day he spends there. The thought that goes into the planned activities each week is amazing and we have really seen him develop so quickly during this time. He has really formed bonds with the Under 2's team, as have we and it's really lovely to see how he's so happy to go in each day - and sometimes seems reluctant to be picked up to go home! We moved to the area unexpectedly during the summer and are so thankful we managed to find Vantage Day and the team.

We have been very happy with our experience at Vantage Park.
The staff are consistently friendly, caring, considerate, and always very kind and smiley. They truly listen to us and our needs, which was especially important at the beginning. The activities that they plan are great and tailored to each
child and age group. We woud really recommend this nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Vantage has been our daughter's first and only nursery, and we cannot recommend them enough! From the start, when the current Nursery Manager was leading the Under Twos room, we've seen a consistent commitment to care and communication. Our duaghter loves the nursery staff. The leadership team handles
changes promptly and thoughtfully - a noticeable difference compared to other nurseries we've experienced with our older child or heard about from fellow parents. Any concerns we've had (which are rare) have always been met with empathy, professionalism, and swift resolution.


All staff are warm, polite, and proactive in checking in with us about our daughter's needs, making it easy.
They're also fantastic at supporting social development - our daughter has built strong friendships and has felt loved, secure and included throughout her time there.


P.S: Equipment rating -> wish there was an app for parent comms, pics sharing with email notifications, nice to have only.

Our daughter has been attending Vantage Park since she was 9 months old (she is now 3) and she loves it! She has been cared for and looked after brilliantly throughout that time. Her development is excellent and I can tell that she learns loads as well as having fun and enjoying her days with her friends.
The staff are all amazing and I feel very happy knowing she is in very capable hands while we are at work.

Our 2 year old son attends this nursery and we are very pleased that he does. We moved him from another nursery and the contrast is huge. There are lots of activities and a real focus on engaging little minds. We feel his key worker really sees and understands him, and is almost as happy as we are when
he manages to do new things! The nursery is very well managed and responsive. There are slightly less expensive nurseries but the extra money is obviously spent on things that help our little boy develop and have fun.

I highly recommend Vantage Park! The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly and my daughter settled straight into nursery from 10 months old. Now at almost 2 years old she adores the nursery and has never been upset or nervous to go in which speaks to the positive nature of the environment.
The
management and nursery workers are lovely and take the time to speak to parents and provide a thorough handover at pick up.
The effort that goes into the curriculum and activities is superb, they are well considered, entertaining and appropriate for each room. The meals and snacks are excellent too. Thank you!

My Son loves his time at Vantage Park. From the first moment I called to book a viewing and they picked up the phone to talk to me, the staff have been so organised and supportive in a timely way. My son took quite a while to settle in but he just loves going always running to find out what the activities
are. He eats everything they provide (with sometimes seconds) so the food must be nice and the menu is varied. I love that my son is encouraged to engage in the activities but equally is supported with staff spending time with him if he just wants to read books or do something different. The staff listen to how I would like nap times and certain words to be used for nappies etc and really do extend the same principles we have at home.
I really would recommend this nursery to anyone. The perfect balance for us between structure and security of being a nursery with the individualised care we wanted for our child.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Vintage Park Day Nursery.The staff are incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely care about each child's development and happiness. From the moment we walked in, we felt a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Our child has grown so much in confidence and independence

My child has been attending Vantage Park for the last 3 months in the under 2s room. She happily walks into nursery every day and seems to really love Donna and Megan.
The nursery has a calm, friendly and safe atmosphere. Menus and activities are well thought out and my child often brings home things
she has made. I'm really glad we picked Vantage Park.

Our daughter has been at Vantage Park since February 2025, following a house move. Any concerns we had about moving our daughter to a new nursery environment were quickly dispelled.
She settled into Vantage Park very quickly and happily, and continues to be excited every morning by the prospect of
going to nursery.
The staff are friendly, caring and professional, and we receive daily feedback on her activities, meals, sleep and progress. Communication with management is also clear and efficient.
Since joining, our daughter's speech and independence has developed greatly.
We're very happy with our choice to use Vantage Park and would very much recommend the nursery to others.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.971)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.971) out of 10 for Vantage Park Day Nursery 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.971 for Vantage Park Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (234 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.971
  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 Vantage Park Day Nursery is based on 20 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8, which has been reached with 20 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.
