A wonderful nursery with wonderful staff! I couldn't have asked for a better start for my little girl! I would certainly recommend to other families searching for a nursery especially if you are wanting a family feeling. It is very welcoming and you feel like your child is loved and well cared for.
The app is great and I love seeing the updates throughout the day. There is a great push on mental well being for staff, children and families.

My daughter recently started at Daisy daycare after we moved house. I was nervous at the change as she had been at another nursery for 9 months prior. Moving her to Daisy daycare has been the best decision I've ever made.


I am updated consistently with how my child is progressing, what activities

she has been doing & also meals / changes etc.


Updating the app and showing pictures and descriptions of what the children have been up to that day really makes the time spent away from her much easier seeing how happy she is. This is something I didn't get consistently at her last nursery.


I love the fact that, when able to, they do also take the children out to visits like the supermarket or the park. Something most nurseries don't offer.


All the staff are amazing, approachable, extremely friendly and brilliant with both myself and my daughter. As parents, we love this nursery and I know my daughter does too. I would recommend to everyone.

My little boy is in his last year at Daisy day care and I can honestly say i get so emotional at the thought of him leaving nursery to go onto primary school.The staff are amazing and all go above and beyond their job roles.My little boy is so well looked after whilst at nursery,Nothing is ever too
much to ask of the staff they are always happy to help or answer queries .We receive daily updates on the app of meal times activities etc .All the staff are welcoming and very friendly.Its an amazing well run nurturing nursery.I highly recommend Daisy Day care and will be very sad when my boy has to leave and hopes he will receive the amount of care nurturing and support the staff show at Daisy Day care when he moves on to primary school.

My son looks forward to going to this nursery and tells me all about what he has done and learned when he comes home. He speaks about the nursery teachers and what he has had to eat. Also from a parent level I think the app is helpful as your kept up to date with hes day.

As a family we couldn't recommend Daisy Daycare enough, our little girl started in September and has settled in so well, the care the staff give to the children is second to none, I have picked my little girl up numerous times and caught her belly laughing with her key worker its just heartwarming,
they take the children out into the community which I think is brilliant, have healthy snacks and meals, the management is always happy to help with any query you may have and everyone is warm and friendly its such a happy nursery, my little girl has come on so much in the short time shes been there and loves going seeing her friends and the staff which is a massive relief for any parent.

Lovely nursery. My child struggled in a large mainstream nursery and she's settled into daisie daycare and walks in herself daily. Shes come on leaps and bounds since joining in December and I think I will even consider keeping her here instead of putting her at school nursery come September. Staff
really are great and nothings to much I can see the love and support my daughter receives. Big thanks to all the team you really are all fantastic. The only thing I could possibly pick out is that a hot lunchtime food option isn't available but having speaking with staff it's just not got the facilities to do so and they still provide healthy snacks and things but that is the only thing I could say. Overall amazing place for the children.

My grandson has grown so much over the past few months. The work that goes into planning appropriate age appropriate activities is outstanding. Max has developed trusting relationships with the staff and I believe he is thriving because of their personalised care and attention. It's clear that he loves
his nursery and staff. And we are thrilled by how much he is learning and growing with their guidance. It is without a doubt a very safe and secure environment to support my grandson and meet all of his needs. I'm so pleased to see how happy he is there every day.

My baby started nursery when he was 10 months old one day a week to settle him in before I started back at work when he was 12 months.
He's been at Daisy Daycare for around 4 months now, we are so pleased with how settled into nursery.
It's clear he genuinely enjoys his time at nursery. The staff
are attentive, evidently warm and caring. We don't go to work and worry about him as we know he is in safe hands, there is no tears at handover time. The communication is good via the app and handover at the end of the day is very througher . Couldn't be happier xxx

My daughter has been attending Daisy Daycare for almost six months now and it is truly the best decision we have ever made. She is incredibly settled, happy and thriving since starting here.


The staff are absolutely amazing and go above and beyond for my daughter every single day. The communication

is outstanding - we receive daily updates about what she has been doing, along with details of the wonderful activities and local trips the children enjoy. The engagement with parents is fantastic and I can't wait to attend the planned Mother's Day morning with my daughter.


As an early years specialist myself, I can honestly say the provision the team provides is inspiring, thoughtfully planned and appropriately challenging whilst consistently meeting the individual needs and interests of every child.


We couldn't be happier with our choice. Thank you so much, Daisy Daycare for everything you do!

One of the best nursery's! My son has gone from being 8 weeks old, as for most mums it's a huge worry, this nursery completed put my mind at rest and to say he is the most clever, independent and caring little boy is an understatement and I believe a huge part is him being at this nursery from such
a young age. Not only do the nursery look after your child but their support and care for your child and the support for parents to is also remarkable. My little one loves going and loves all the staff and children, such a happy place and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery!

Daisy day care is an amazing nursery full of happiness laugter and love. Children are definitely not just a number here and are valued as individuals learning to grow independently and confidently. My little girl will be leaving to start school in September and I can't thank the staff enough for all
their care, attention and enthusiasm that has helped her grow. My experience of staff has always been friendly and professional and the whole team work together so well it's very family orientated and personal. Communication of care and activities are always updated daily in the app and I've always had great communication about fees and all my messages are always responded to in a timely mannner. Over 3 years of my daughter attending I have never had any issues what so ever. Thank you to each and everyone of the daisy day care team My daughter will miss you so much and I so will I. Fantastic nursery!! I would recommend it to anyone.

Daisy daycare is a home from home setting and has a cute cosy feel. My little boy has excelled massively since starting here last September! The children are happy and content each time I drop my son off which as a parent is so nice to see. The care provided by Daisy Daycare is next to none, when my
little boy became ill while in their care they acted amazingly and provided not only support to him but to myself and his dad too. We will be forever grateful of the girls at Daisy daycare!

Amazing nursery, couldn't ask for more!
My daughter has come on so well since attending and I can see how happy she is via updates on the app throughout the day.
Different activities are great and regular feedback on her development and achievements are great to read.
Room workers seem to really
take an interest in each individual child and get to know their personality and uniqueness. Highly, highly recommend.

I always love collecting my granddaughter from nursery. It's such a lovely place. The staff are so warm and welcoming. I love seeing all the displays with the children's art work. There are always lots of new things to discover. My granddaughter loves showing me what she has done and the staff are so
lovely and always have time for questions and tell me everything that my granddaughter has done and had to eat.

Sent my little girl to Daisy Daycare as an extremely anxious Mum who held onto her baby as long as possible due to a difficult start to her life. She had a very upset start at Daisy Daycare due to being upset leaving me- as was I leaving her. The girls was amazing with her- patient and did everything
in her best interest to help her settle. There was no rush at all in how long it took. I now have a little girl who wanders in and i'm lucky if she says bye! She has an amazing time every time she goes. I don't trust just anyone with my little precious girl- but these girls I really do. It takes very special people to win her round and for her to feel comfortable- all the girls do this. She is absolutely thriving there, and we are so so happy with her progress. The girls are great at keeping in touch and sending messages through the day. They're great.

Our daughter fully enjoys her time when at nursery. Lots of planning and effort goes into the activities that staff do within the room. And it doesn't go unnoticed by parents. The staff are really approachable with any question you may have also.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.960)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.960) out of 10 for Daisy Daycare 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 53 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 53 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 4.960 for Daisy Daycare is calculated as follows: ( (605 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 630 Ratings = 4.96
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Daisy Daycare is based on 53 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 49 number of registered child places is 9.8, which has been reached with 53 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.
