Review from F K (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Craighead nursery has been a fabulous setting for my child. The staff and management are very supportive. My child is cared for very well and enjoys his time in nursery. All staff have built lovely relationships with my child. My child's key worker is very nurturing and knows my child very well. Management
are always on hand to answer questions and speak to and are very approachable. They have a great outdoor space that my child can access, and they also visit local parks. My child can participate in a variety of fun learning experiences and there is a nurture space if he needs some time to relax also.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.125) out of 10 for Craighead Childcare Centre 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Craighead Childcare Centre is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5
  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 3.125 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Craighead Childcare Centre is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 40 number of registered child places is 8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.125
  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.

Hayley Grant

Job Title: Depute Manager Joined: 2012

Hi, I’m Hayley, and I’ve worked in childcare for over 17 years, with 14 of those years spent at Craighead. I started my journey as an apprentice and have worked my way up through childcare worker and senior roles to become a Deputy Manager.


I’m passionate about creating a safe, happy, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel valued. I really enjoy building strong relationships with both children and their families, and I take pride in supporting my team to provide the best possible care.


I’m known for being friendly, approachable, and reliable, and I always try to lead by example. I love seeing children develop and achieve new things, and it’s rewarding to know I’ve played a part in that.
