Our daughter is really happy here and has settled really well. Big Dreams is a lovely nursery and the staff are always fantastic. They set up lots of nice activities to help the children with their development and our daughter always looks like she's having fun.

Big Dreams Nursery is a fantastic nursery with friendly, warm and approachable staff. My child has learnt a great deal during her time there - she is speaking so much more, appears confident, curious and I have observed her to have positive relationships with staff supporting her. Staff communicate
effectively with me around my child's needs and they are thorough. The nursery is bright, clean and has a wide range of toys and learning tools for children to engage with. The garden is a lovely space for children to explore. The nursery offer so much support for parents/carers including events to involve the whole family.

My daughter started when she was 14 months and has settled into this nursery very well, this is due to the brilliant staff, each and every one of them not just the primary key person who has been awesome.
Being a new nursery I thought it would take time to get processes and procedures in place but
it runs efficiently, it's well organised and everyone knows what they are doing. Recently Big Dreams celebrated their 1 year anniversary which was a great event and brought everyone together to create a nice atmosphere where we got to meet other parents, the children our daughter plays with and all the other staff members.
I would highly recommend this Nursey.

I have 4 children and have been to different nurseries where my children have been and this is by a far distance the best nursery I have been to. The staff are absolutely amazing and go beyond expectations!, they are friendly, polite and most of all make my son feel so happy and comfortable. I have
recommended the nursery to many of my friends. I couldn't have asked for a better nursery and looking forward to my son making amazing memories there.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This was an unknown choice for us, we was not able to get into another nursery so it was a challenge where we could see our son being happy. I felt happy and confident that the nursery could accommodate after a few weeks into it back in September 24.
Amazing nursery, the team of 6 staff members in
particular have gone above and beyond for our son who is yet to be diagnosed with autism.
The nursery have help organise help with the local authorities which are outside of our home county and an EHCP to be attained at such a short time line. Kept pushing by the relevant personnel within the area's remit.
Arranged various meetings which has helped generate so much data about our son which we can now share with the diagnostic team at a local centre. Pushing to get 1:1 help for our son which has helped alot develop his words skills.
Currently they are helping him with his potty training.
Many thanks to all the staff.

My child had a challenging time settling into nursery initially. Since then, my child has settled much better, staff have communicated better with us as parents and staff have bonded well with my child. My child is happy and we have seen so much development in the last couple of months, which I believe
has been due to the nurturing and learning that takes place at nursery.

I am so glad that I sent my daughter to Big Dreams. The staff are nurturing, fun and friendly and my LO adores them. They go above and beyond for all of the children and they have adapted to my daughters needs and continue to do everything to make her feel safe and happy. She never wants to come home
at pick up time as she enjoys her time there so much. The garden has a wide range of activities and they also have a sensory room. The food is very nutritious and the menu looks so yummy that I'm jealous I can't eat it myself. I take comfort in the fact that I know my daughter is very happy and cared for at Big Dreams. I highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My baby started in April and honestly, I couldn't be happier with how it's all going.
All of the staff are so friendly and welcoming, they are really understanding of how hard it can be to leave your young child. Those first few days are tough for any parent, but they made it so much easier.
The settling
in sessions work amazingly and the communication from the staff is brilliant. They always keep me updated on how my little one is doing, what activities they've enjoyed, and any little milestones.
My baby settled there pretty much straight away, I think down to how warm and friendly the team are and how engaging the nursery set up is. The rooms are bright and stimulating with lots of different play areas.
If you're looking for a nursery where your child will be genuinely cared for by people who understand then, I'd definitely recommend!

The staff cannot be faulted. They are so attentive and creative on top of caring so well for the children. My son loves going here and adores the staff. It's clean, organised and structured enough for the appropriate age group. They are fed really well and want for nothing.
Management make everything
stressless and are so understanding, giving sound advice and support when needed. My son will be there for as long as possible.
Incredible value for money.

The Big Dreams Nursery is a new one but all staff members are well trained, professional and caring. They look after the kids well. Regular updates with photos make it assuring that the child is in good hands while we work. I strongly recommend this nursery to new parents without any hiccups.

We're very happy with the nursery, the friendly staff provide fun activities that are great for learning and take amazing care of all her needs. The food provided

We are so so happy we chose to move our little boy to Big Dreams nursery. Our son attended another setting for over 2 years and due to moving we had to find a new nursery locally, we were extremely anxious and apprehensive about the transition but the whole team have been absolutely incredible and our
son has settled so quickly with no upset. The nursery is so well run, the staff are all so warm and friendly and have made us feel right at home: the extra activities we have seen in just a couple of months already have been amazing and our little boy is so so happy and content. Thank you to everyone at Big dreams, what an amazing nursery one which we will continue to recommend to any local parents.

This Nursery is the best I have experienced. My little girl loves her time there. She transitioned from the baby room to the toddlers at the beginning of April and coped really well. This was all made easier by the fantastic staff working there showing her care and kindness.


Thank you Big Dreams!!!

Outstanding nursery with exceptional staff. We couldn't be happier with this fantastic new nursery. The real selling point is the staff is kind, caring, and always willing to go above and beyond for both your child and family. Their warmth and dedication make all the difference. Another highlight is
the daily communication. While I'd love to spend every moment with my little one, the regular updates and photos of activities bring such joy and reassurance each day. After just three weeks, we've already noticed a huge boost in our little one's confidence and I have no doubt this is down to the incredible support and encouragement from the staff. What truly sets this nursery apart is how they treat each child as an individual, catering to their needs in such a thoughtful way. We couldn't recommend them highly enough for the warm and welcoming experience they've provided.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.951)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.951) out of 10 for Big Dreams Nursery 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 54 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 54 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 4.951 for Big Dreams Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (619 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 647 Ratings = 4.951
  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 Big Dreams Nursery is based on 54 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 68 number of registered child places is 13.6, which has been reached with 54 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.
