A nursery that goes above and beyond. Sending our son here is the best decision we have ever made. Thank you to all the girls, but specifically a special thanks to the Nursery Practitioners for the special care and bonds made with my son. He comes home telling me you are his friends and how much he
loves going to school and playing with you all. We've had so much support even after transitioning to a school, and I can't thank you or recommend you enough.

I have 2 children who attend Jack in the box during school holidays. They absolutely LOVE IT! They have so much fun and the staff do so many different activities with the children. Christine and the team do a fabulous job! I can't recommend them enough.
My girls both have food allergies and they've
been amazing with making sure they're included, thank you so much for this!
All staff I've met have been really polite and great with the children. I went in to check it out before they attended and all the children in there were happy and loving being there. So much for them to do.
My children have come home with things they've made; to eat, art work, sour dough creations to name a few from only 3 days there this last time.
If I could, I'd give 6 stars out of 5, they're that's good!!

Both of my children have attended the nursery, unfortunately COVID impacted on my little girls time there when they had to close for a short time, but she had the best time, the staff were amazing and she left to start Reception at school with the biggest amount of confidence, she is in Yr 3 now and
still talks about and looks back on her time at nursery as she loved it.
Now my little boy attends, at first he was very apprehensive about going in, but he's been there approx 18months and he absolutely loves it, everything about him has bloomed since going to nursery, he loves to tell me about his day and what they've been doing.
I can't thank the staff enough for what they do each and every day, it will be a sad day when we have to say goodbye for good.

Very happy with my daughter's development and confidence. She's always excited to go to nursery and will always come home smiling. All the staff are lovely and we love to hear what she's been up to daily. Due another baby in couple of months and will definitely be sending him to this nursery :)

Fabulous ladies. My girls absolutely adore going to Jack In the Box. I would recommend to everyone. They take in to consideration the additional needs and care my child requires and they are never left out of group activities. I can't thank them enough for all the support they have given.

My little boy has been going to jack in the box since September, he has come on so much! The girls are all amazing & seeing how happy he is going into nursery fills me with confidence. He sees the girls on the school run after and always gets excited to see them & runs over so they can make a fuss of
him. It's so nice to see. He will really miss them when he leaves to start school in September! Would recommended this nursery to anyone, I sent my little boy there through recommendations & glad I listened as it's an amazing nursery with amazing staff!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When my daughter started Jack In The Box, Blurton. She was extremely apprehensive to do so. She was a pandemic baby and was super clingy to me because of only being with me or her dad. All the girls made a great effort to make her feel safe and reassured her that everything was okay and that we would
be back soon. Over time it got easier at drop-offs with no more tears and was replaced with excitement and joy to see her friends and the ladies that looked after, taught her, and cared for her. Her development has flourished during her time there and is more talkative, more playful, and more outgoing. They gave her the courage to want to be involved with activities. I can't thank the ladies that work there enough. She's now off to big girl school and is excited for that adventure. Even though she still misses and talks about two particular members of staff daily. I have no doubt all the work they do daily not only for my child but others is appreciated by other parents too.

My boys are always happy to arrive in the morning, they thoroughly enjoy their time spent at this nursery all the staff are so kind and loving towards the children in their care, cannot fault them at all!
The only thing I’d say was I wish you did a portal similar to other nurseries where you can see
pics of your children and all their info is on there, e.g dinner, snacks, what they have been up to, etc.

An absolutely amazing nursery, my son started at 2 and a half years old and had never been left with anyone other than close family. The team helped him settle with ease and they got to know my son’s likes and dislikes straight away. We have seen him progress immensely since being with Jack in the Box
already. The team always give a thorough handover and you can tell they are all really passionate about providing the best care and education to the children. My son loves coming to nursery and we couldn’t recommend them enough!

My daughter started here as a shy little 14-month-old and has blossomed into a confident and social girl. She absolutely adores the staff here, especially three members in particular. She is clearly very happy to go into the nursery as she mostly walks in by herself. I feel like she is well cared for
and they know her really well. It’s only been a few months but I am so pleased that she is happy and in an environment with lots of activities. I really appreciate all the work the nursery does as I can go about my day without worrying about her.

I could not ask for any more from this fabulous nursery. My little one has been attending Jack In The Box for over 2 years and the girls at the nursery have been fundamental to the superb growth and development of my child.
The relationships that have been forged with the key workers and staff have
been incredible and nothing is too big of an ask for them. My child is always happy and as a parent, I know she is always safe and well cared for.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.927)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.927) out of 10 for Jack In The Box 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.927 for Jack In The Box Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (177 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 191 Ratings = 4.927
  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 Jack In The Box Day Nursery is based on 16 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 16 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.
