Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been attending this nursery for the last two years and are so pleased with the care our children receive. The staff love them and it shows in the activities they lead. The location is very convenient for us and the outdoor areas are always being upgraded and improved. It’s so popular, they’ve
had to build an extension to accommodate all the new children that are waiting to join!

My son goes here just now and my eldest before him, the staff are fantastic and have been wonderful before and during the pandemic. So flexible, caring and fun. I am totally happy to leave my kids with them, would happily recommend this nursery to anyone!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been going to the nursery since he was 1 (now 2 and a half) and he absolutely loves it. The food is great, the kids have so many toys to play with and activities to do and I fully believe he has learnt so much as part of his development from the nursery. I think he’d rather be there than
with me at times.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can’t rave about this nursery anymore if I tried! The staff are lovely and my son looks forward to nursery every single day he is in. He comes home with lots of stories about what he had done. A round of applause to them for everything they are teaching my boy. I sometimes wonder where all this information
fits! The meals are fabulous and there is a variety of different types of meals they offer i.e. hot meals, cold meals, some veggie and some meat. They are so accommodating and I love the fact I can drop my son off any time after 7:30 am and collect latest 6 pm which works so well with me and my partner's working hours.
Reply from Lewis Gilburt, Owner at Currie Children's Day Nursery
It is lovely for me as the owner to hear such positive praise for my staff and the nursery. I am so proud of all that they do. Like you, I am amazed every time I am there by everything on offer.

Brilliant nursery, my son's first year at nursery and they have settled him in amazingly. A lot of outdoor fun and trips which he loves. All the staff are amazing and he has a great relationship with them all. They are good at keeping parents up to date and following dietary requirements in my experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 4-year-old has been attending Currie Children's Day Nursery since she was 9-months-old. We couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery. The staff are great and really get to know the children and what they like/dislike. She takes part in a wide range of activities and is always learning. I especially
like the amount of outdoor time the children have and the trips they take around the local community. During Covid, although parents haven't been allowed in the nursery staff have been great at keeping us up to date with what the children have been up to. And being a key worker, the staff were fantastic during the pandemic, such a difficult time for them but still always had a smile to greet the children. Highly recommend.

Review from Ramsay M (Father of Child) published on 15 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are lovely, so friendly and welcoming. My son is always so excited to go and is greeted by a big smile at the door.
The nursery is always doing fun activities which are not only fun but great for learning too. They have fun-filled days outs to parks, farms, museums and many more. Giving my
son a taste of exploring the city.
Before joining this nursery my son was shy and nervous. Within a week or two of joining he knew the names of his friends and the staff that work there. His confidence and learning are growing every day and that’s all thanks to this nursery.
Can’t recommend them enough!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I highly recommend Currie Children's Day Nursery. The staff are all so friendly and really engage with all the children. The care the children receive is second to none and my little girl loves going here. The nursery are always working towards educational goals and they really care about each individual
child and their own needs. The outdoor space is amazing and perfectly suited to each age group. The children spend a lot of time exploring the outdoors, the local community and sometimes a little bit further afield which I think is great.
Thank you to all the amazing staff!

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.372)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.372) out of 10 for Currie Children's Day Nursery 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 9 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 4.880 for Currie Children's Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (97 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.88
  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 4.492 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Currie Children's Day Nursery is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.2 = 0.592
  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.
