A brilliant setting that has helped my children settle quickly and learn new skills. The colleagues there are kind and enthusiastic about the children. I've had poor experiences with nurseries previously but Vantage Park has been exceptional.

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.

Couldn't recommend the nursery enough, the staff are always happy, friendly and willing. Handovers at the end of the day are always comprehensive and honest.

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
since starting here. The daily activities are thoughtfully planned, educational, and fun-it's clear the team puts a lot of effort into creating a nurturing and stimulating environment. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed

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.

The manager and staff are lovely, very caring and understanding. My little boy has really come out of his shell since starting. It's nice to have a manager that cares as much about your kids as you do, going to work and leaving your children can be so daunting, worrying if they are safe and happy all
day but management make it so much easier.

Easily one of, if not the best nursery setting in the area. My child thoroughly enjoys going to this nursery and gets excited when he knows it is nursery day. You are sent a weekly sheet via email each week, which lets you know what the children have been up to and what the following week includes,
including a food menu for the whole week. Safeguarding of the children is of utmost importance to them, which puts your mind at rest, as a parent. I would also say that Vantage Park has most certainly helped in the development of my child, he always comes home and tells me what he has learnt, which I find very endearing. Also, very clean and has great resources.

Outstanding nursery. The first feeling you get when you walk into the nursery is a sense of 'family' and it's true, they look after the children as if they were their own, showing a considerable amount of tolerance, empathy, understanding, and trust in the children. The nursery manager has done a fantastic
job in keeping her staff engaged, following protocol, but also always trying to innovate better ways to do certain things around the nursery, whether it be practical things regarding sandals, sun lotion and so on, or if it's regarding illness and injuries. What's also apparent is that the work environment is friendly and non-competitive, so all the ladies who work there seem to get on very well, which is actually a really important factor when choosing a nursery, I feel. The development structure and format is actually really good, and this is where the chunk of the premium day rate I feel comes into value. 1:1 focus with the child really helps.

Outstanding nursery, I felt it from the moment we visited to my son's first day and he has been at the nursery for 5 months now. The staff are excellent, so kind and friendly and my son's face lights up when he sees them, which is exactly what we wanted. I have no doubt that my son is in the best hands
and the staff are really good at telling you about their day and what they have been doing! It's always really informative which I am grateful for. Also, the weekly sheet that is emailed out to parents is a highlight too and there is so much detail about everything you need to know and also a glimpse at what the children have been doing. I found it very reassuring to see my son enjoying himself and learning while he is there. We have noticed a big transition in his development since attending nursery and I can only thank the staff for all their hard work and care in helping him achieve this! The facilities are also exceptional inside and out. We would definitely recommend this nursery!

My daughter has been at Vantage Park Day Nursery for 3-months. I'm so happy with the level of care given and the time spent talking with me every day when I ring to check how her day is going. My daughter always comes home happy and has really developed since attending. She's almost eating unaided,
saying lots of different words, and just seems very content. I cannot express how Vantage Park Day Nursery has helped with the transition of going back to work. I feel at ease and happy to walk away once my daughter has been dropped off, allowing me to focus on my job, but knowing I can ring as many times as needed. My daughter always brings items home that she has made, and I love receiving the news sheet every Friday and seeing what she's been up to. Thank you to all of the staff; you have made what I thought was going to be an emotional and hard process seems so natural.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.903)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.903) out of 10 for Vantage Park Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.965 for Vantage Park Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (140 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.965

  • b) 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 4.938 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Vantage Park Day Nursery is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.938

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
