Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Early Learners are so amazing with my daughter, as a first time mum and having to return to work I was so anxious about sending her to a nursery but the girls reassured me and were so comforting and helpful towards Miley, she's absolutely loves going nursery now and I feel comfortable leaving her with
the workers. Thanks so much for everything x

Review from G B (Father of Child) published on 10 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am impressed with the knowledge they have about our child and the communication each day about how she has been.
My baby loves going to nursery and ever day I got to collect her she's happy and always happy when we drop her off in the morning.
I am very happy with the food she eats and helps to
introduce her to new foods.
Only thing I would suggest is more photos, and updates on what activities/learning they have been doing in the day.

Review from Morgan S (Mother of Child) published on 10 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has thrived since coming to this new nursery setting. She has previously attended another nursery but we was dissatisfied with their service and my daughter was unhappy there. My daughter was a little unsettled at the start of her journey at ELN due to issues at her last nursery. However
I can drop my daughter off now, without tears and she looks genuinely happy to attend there. The nursery practitioners are lovely. They are really caring and attentive. They give thorough handovers and their professionalism is admirable. The nursery manager is very welcoming and is extremely helpful and will try to assist/resolve any queries that I have had. The nursery manager also goes above and beyond and tries to accommodate the best they can. The facilities are inviting and very clean. I always recommend ELN Wigan. I would suggest that I would like to have more of an update of the activities the children do in the day time and more photos on the app

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The most lovely nursery. I found it so hard looking for a nursery for my little girl, and the moment I walked into Early Learners I felt at home. All the staff have such big smiles and cannot do enough for you and your children. The best decision I made was going with this nursery. My little girl has
just turned 1 and she is thriving at Early Learners, and I feel so comfortable leaving her there whilst I go to work, knowing she is happy and well looked after is all I could ever want. Communication with the nursery is also brilliant.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.496)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.496) out of 10 for Early Learners Nursery Wigan 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 4 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 4.896 for Early Learners Nursery Wigan is calculated as follows: ( (43 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.896
  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 3.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Early Learners Nursery Wigan is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 89 number of registered child places is 17.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.8 = 0.225
  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.
