Review from Laura G (Mother of Child) published on 23 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child is completing their first year at Clarkston nursery. It's been a wonderful experience. Settling in was no issue and when I collect them they are so happy. The option to have half days from two also made settling in much easier before our funding started. The smaller size means the staff know
the children well and I know my child is safe and cared for.

Review from C M (Grandmother of Child) published on 16 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We've been involved with Clarkston Nursery for about 4 years with our two granddaughters and the care and attention that the lovely staff give to the children is exceptional. It's a small nursery where the staff know all the families and take a great interest in them. You can tell that the kids enjoy
it as there was never a single occasion when they didn't rush in without a backward look. The staff prepare the children well for starting at primary school and our older granddaughter still talks about how much she loved the nursery.
We couldn't praise it highly enough.

Review from Helen K (Mother of Child) published on 2 May 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I would highly recommend Clarkston Nursery to any parent. I feel so thankful to have found a space where I can drop my child off at a nursery where I feel absolutely confident that the staff looking after him know him, care for him, and are attentive to his specific needs. If I had to summarize the
nursery in one word, I would call it "nurturing". My son has come on leaps and bounds during his time at the nursery. He skips into the nursery and has developed lovely friendships with the other children who attend.

All of my children have been to Clarkston Nursery and all of them have had a brilliant experience. The staff are outstanding and build incredible relationships with the children, and families, who go to the nursery. They are experts in their field and provide a warm, nurturing environment where children
develop happily. I couldn’t recommend the nursery and its staff highly enough.

Fantastic nursery. The staff are amazing and so nurturing. Fab range of toys and activities available every day. Our kids cannot wait to get there every morning and want to go at the weekends! Couldn't recommend Clarkston highly enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our family has been associated with Clarkston Nursery for the past 16 years having our 3 grandchildren attend the nursery. The nursery has been a constant with our wee ones. They do a wide range of learning activities in the nursery to keep the wee ones stimulated and happy to be there. They ensure
that our wee ones are ready to go on to primary school. They also have a lovely play garden where the children get the chance to play outside in the fresh air. And importantly, the staff are tops. They're always welcoming and happy to see the children when they arrive in the morning. Some of the staff have been there for as long as we've been taking ours to the nursery - 16 years. Our oldest grandchild is now nearly 18, and the youngest is 4. We have no hesitation in recommending Clarkston Nursery. We can not praise them highly enough. Caring staff who we know care very much about the welfare of our children.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.640)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.640) out of 10 for Clarkston 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.940 for Clarkston Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (80 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.94
  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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Clarkston Nursery is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 31 number of registered child places is 6.2, which has been reached with 7 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.
