My son loves Meadowside. The staff are amazing, super supportive. The outdoor meadow is massive and shady in the summer and he loves playing out there. Great to have football classes once a week and school lunches for a hot meal. Can't recommend it enough!

It is such a friendly team at Meadowside that I genuinely feel comfortable leaving my child with them. They go above and beyond to make my child feel safe, comfortable and happy so much so that it is fair to say the staff meet and exceed any expectations you would have of a preschool. My little one
loves attending and asks me on a morning in an excited voice 'school day?' and I love watching how my child bonds with each and every staff member. I couldn't recommend Meadowside enough, so much so I've already enrolled my youngest to start the September after they turn 2!

My eldest son has settled in so well to Meadowside and is excited to go each day! He loves telling us about the different activities he's been doing and speaks fondly of his new teachers. The regular photo updates and communication has been great and it's been the perfect transition for school next
year. He especially enjoys the outdoor classroom environment, recent obstacle course building and spending time going on bug hunts!

I have sent two of my children to meadowside pre school now before starting their school journeys. I can honestly say I've always been so happy! My youngest daughter has special needs and the staff have been nothing but amazing with supporting me and her on her hearing journey and making sure she gets
the extra support she needs before she starts school in September. The children are always doing fun and educational activities every day and my daughter LOVES attending pre school which is always a great relief as a working parent when sending them.
Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Childcare at Meadowside PreschoolThank you so much for your lovely review.

The Meadowside Preschool staff have given our daughter a lovely warm welcome since she's joined this month, after having only ever known one other nursery. Moving house and pre-school is hard but she has settled really well at Meadowside owing to their care and provision of fun playing and learning
activities (and toast!)
Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Early Years Education at Meadowside PreschoolThank you so much for taking the time to write your review. We are so pleased that your daughter has settled so well into the nursery and that your experience has been so positive. We pride ourselves on the welcoming and nurturing environment that the staff work so hard to create as we know that by doing this, children learn best when they feel happy and secure.

My daughter has only been at Meadowside Preschool for a few weeks but has settled in so well, thanks to the efforts of the team. Everyone is friendly and helpful. There are varied organised activities every day, which are reported on an App so you can see what they've been up to. The space is well set
up for the group, with an outdoor classroom and a field which they seem to really enjoy running around in. Would definitely recommend based on our experience so far!
Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Childcare at Meadowside PreschoolThank you for your lovely review. We are very proud of the beautiful space that we have and our team are amazing, so I am pleased that your experience so far has been so positive and reflects this. The staff put a lot of effort into getting to know each child as an individual and planning activities that help them grow and develop in all areas of their learning. The app is a hit with parents as you get real-time updates and we understand how important it is that you see your child happy and engaging throughout the day. Many thanks, Natalie

I cannot recommend this preschool enough! It makes me sad that this will be my child's last year here as he is moving to Reception. He gets excited to go there everyday and that as a parent is what you want. The staff have helped and advised on how to assist his progress with his speech to ensure we
as new parents are assisted as he has struggled with this. The staff are lovely and do their utmost to help your child feel comfortable and their progression, their communication is excellent! The updates and detail on the app daily are brilliant to keep you in the loop with your child's day. The setting is wonderful, I went to view other preschool prior to Meadowside and found Meadowside to be the most fulfilling, it has lots of space and a real happy feeling. The activities the children do daily are endless, and my child has brought home little cakes he has made/art etc, the little goodie bag he came home with at Christmas was especially lovely. I can only say I wish he attended sooner!
Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Childcare at Meadowside PreschoolThank you so much for your wonderful review of our setting.

Both my Son and Daughter attend Meadowside Nursery and also attend the breakfast club. All the staff there are amazing and there are particularly 3 who stand out. They have all made both my son and daughter feel welcome and they put a lot of effort into creating fun activities, making cakes is one of
my daughter's favourites! We are always welcomed with smiles when dropping the children off, which makes us as parents feel at ease and know our children are in safe, capable hands. Both my children have come on leaps and bounds from attending this nursery. A big thank you to all the staff. It is definitely a nursery I would recommend to any parents.

My son is very happy at Meadowside. The staff are fantastic with him and arrange multiple activities to support his development each day. I'm particularly pleased with the communication about him and enjoy seeing what he's been up to in the daily photo updates. There's outdoor space during wet weather
and the children have use of an expansive outdoor area when it's dry. Both my children have had positive experiences at Meadowside. It's inclusive and caring and I would strongly recommend it to others.

Three of my grandsons have attended Meadowside, one is still there at the pre-school, the other two have left for school but still go to the breakfast and after-school clubs, all enjoying their time there very much. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming. The boys are always so keen on going in
the mornings which is lovely. They seem to spend a lot of time in the beautiful outdoor area which is great.
I would highly recommend Meadowside.

Honestly, where do I begin. This nursery is outstanding, from the moment my son started this nursery they have never failed to cater to his needs. Every single person who works in this nursery is so lovely and genuinely caring towards the children and parents. I've had worries about my son's abilities
and the staff have listened to my concerns and done their own work themselves, helping me and my son progress with his support that he needs and will continue to need in the future. They really know how to do their job properly, every time I see them in action they are always doing fun educational activities with the children and it's so nice to see the children enjoying themselves whilst learning at the same time. Such a lovely little setting, my son enjoys every moment here and gets upset to leave! He has come a long way in a short amount of time! I couldn't recommend this nursery enough, to anyone considering Meadowside from one parent to another, go for it. You will not be disappointed!
Reply from Natalie Purkiss, Head of Childcare at Meadowside PreschoolThank you so much!!

My child attended this nursery and the second child is due to start soon. Just wanted to take the time to leave a great review as the staff there are amazing. Very talented and suitable for their roles. I am not supposed to mention any names but I hope this is recorded just how pleased we were with
their attitude and work in general. One very happy and lovely nursery worker stood out in particular. The staff made the transition to nursery and school environment for my son so much easier and he's had his challenges.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Meadowside Preschool 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.963 for Meadowside Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (208 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.963
  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 4.95 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Meadowside Preschool is based on 18 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 = 3.95
    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 20 number of registered child places is 4, which has been reached with 18 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.
