One such experience is child-friendly cooking classes, helping to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been coming to Sandhills since she was one and is now three and a half.


She loves the staff and has made many friends that she constantly talks to us about.


The Sandhills team are very friendly and professional and always willing to help you.


My daughter loves all the activities

that the staff set and it has really helped with my daughter's development.


I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Sandhills Day Nursery to anyone who was looking for a brilliant nursery.

Review from Kerry S (Mother of Child) published on 9 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The owners, the manager and her team have moved mountains to ensure their care is of an excellent standard. The building works completed recently and extremely quickly, not only have significantly improved the previous provision (different business) but it brings with it a sense of professionalism and
thoughtfulness.
The new owners and the manager have the children at the heart of their decisions and as a result, have created a lovely atmosphere where I am confident my son will grow and develop. The manager is excellent, she is extremely caring, positive and a great manager, her knowledge and professionalism is fantastic. My son has not been well recently and the nursery have been excellent in ensuring he receives the prescribed medication he needs. He will be at Sandhills for a few years and without question we know he will receive the very best care. We cannot wait for him to be with the teachers in Mr Mischiefs and in Mr Bumps, both are staff who have ensured he has settled well. Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sandhills provides a warm and welcoming environment for both parents and children. We have been extremely impressed with all aspects of the transition since they have taken over the nursery. Our daughter loves coming to nursery and we feel comfortable leaving her with staff that know our child 100%.
The adaptations to the building have been a very positive change, making it more safe and secure but also ensuring the children’s ages and stages are well planned for. We love keeping up to date with what our daughter has been up to at nursery through conversations with staff but also through the EY parent log. It great getting updates for observations through the app and also being able to add pictures and videos of things that she has been up to at home. Well done Sandhills!

We have a been extremely impressed with how Sandhills have taken over the nursery and turned it in to such a positive place. My daughter loves going in to her class in the morning and is always in a happy mood when collecting her. I couldn’t recommend the nursery more.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.527)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.527) out of 10 for Sandhills Day Nursery Heath Mill 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 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 4.882 for Sandhills Day Nursery Heath Mill is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.882
  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 4.645 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Sandhills Day Nursery Heath Mill 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 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 = 3.8
    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 71 number of registered child places is 14.2. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.845
  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.
