We are truly satisfied with this nursery for our son. When I saw the building the first time I thought it was very clean and full of activities for the children. The staff are very nice and there is good communication. I am happy to spend another year with them.

My daughter has been going to the Play and Learn Day Nursery since she was 2.5 years she is turning 4 now. We tried a couple of nurseries before but she was not settling well but at Play and Learn she just settled in 2 days. She is very comfortable with all the staff and her key person. All the staff
members are very caring she is enjoying her time at the nursery. I would happily recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very friendly staff. They have made my daughter feel so welcome. She loves going to nursery now! Overall they have exceeded my expectations, staff are always communicating with parents which I like! Especially the new app, it’s been so handy to check on what my daughter has eaten, gone to the toilet
and general information. I am a very happy mummy. I think the only thing I can say they could do more off is to take more pictures of the children so the parents can see what they are interacting with at nursery and a wider range of food at nursery. Other than this, well done Play and Learn Day Nursery!

Amazing place for my boy, couldn't be happier. The staff are amazing and always helpful. My boy is happy to go to school even though he is still adapting. Progress happens daily, he sings new nursery rhymes, they race at nursery to see who is faster. Excellent place for first time nursery children and
of course older children.

A fantastic nursery, nice, bright and airy with beautiful outdoor space. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. My 4-year-old has been at the nursery since a baby and we’re still happy, she has made some really special friendships and loves singing and counting in Spanish.

I can’t thank the nursery enough for all the love and care towards my girls.
They have been in the nursery since 9 months old and I am so glad that I chose them. The place is clean, the team is lovely and the organisation and communication perfect.
Thank you so much.

I am very happy with this nursery, great teachers, amazing activities and friendly atmosphere. Teachers very supportive during my son's transition. My son became very independent and learned so much! He’s always coming back home happy and excited. Children do so much during the day, learn a lot and
participate in really creative sessions. Strongly recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.686)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.686) out of 10 for Play and Learn Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.748 for Play and Learn Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (107 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.748
  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 4.938 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Play and Learn 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:

    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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.938
  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.
