Great Nursery - Highly Recommended. This is our 2nd child to attend. Our first child LOVED it there for 4 years. Lovely staff and well managed. Would encourage you to send your child here as he or she will be extremely well cared for.

I have used this nursery for my son and now for my daughter. I have been delighted by the professionalism and caring nature of all of the staff at the Newport "Teddies" Nursery and the admin staff at their headquarters.
My son has a serious cardiac condition and they handled this very professionally
and I was able to teach the staff about his condition and any additional care that was needed. This was always accepted and the additional care was provided without any issues.
On drop off the staff ask how the child has been and anything they may need to know for that day and on collection they provide a great amount of detail about how the child has been during that day, what they have eaten, what they have done and how they have behaved.
I also found that when my son then went to school he was in an advanced position with his reading, writing and concentration, thanks in large to the nursery.

My daughter moved to this nursery from another when she turned 3. I wish I'd have discovered Celtic Springs Nursery long before as she loves it there. She's excited to go in everyday and has come on leaps and bounds since starting here. The staff are very welcoming, friendly and clearly love what they
do there.

Since joining Teddies Nursery our son has developed in so many ways, he is developing into a bright, independent and sociable little boy and we put much of this down to the care and attention he has received at the nursery. Our son is always looking forward to attending nursery in the morning, which
is a great feeling for myself who has to go off to work and leave him. We would definitely recommend Teddies Nursery.

Certainly fulfilled my expectations of a nursery. Can't rate them higher enough. My Little one loves it here and has come in leaps and bounds. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Wish I found this nursery earlier on but certainly more than happy to leave my best man with them.

We have had a great experience with this nursery! My little girl took a long time to settle, but staff never gave up and took the time and care (& lots of cuddles!) she needed to help her transition when I went back to work. She now absolutely loves it and she can't get there quick enough!
They are
great at giving a review in little books at the end of each day of what they've been up to, which really helps us to continue what they've been learning at home, or just helps us to ask her about her day! They have great facilities, and have really thought through the layout of the rooms for the children to maximise their enjoyment, safety and forward thinking to transitions to next stages.

My daughter has attended Teddies Nursery since September 2013. During this time, she has been and continues to be loved, cared for, stimulated and educated. There has not been any occasion that I have felt doubt about leaving her in their care. I believe this is an excellent nursery, providing a
high standard of care for our children. Anybody looking for a nursery need look no further.

To be able to leave my most precious possession in the safe and caring hands of such a good team of people is the most comforting feeling for a parent. My daughter has been here for a year, I am taking her out of nursery with a heavy heart because we are moving. She is really going to miss all her wonderful
caretakers and beautiful friends. She runs in every morning, much of the time forgetting to say goodbye. The settle in, security, daily activities, food menu are excellent. I feel comfortable approaching the staff members and the nursery manager about my child.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.874)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.874) out of 10 for Little Trees Day Nursery Celtic Springs is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.874 for Little Trees Day Nursery Celtic Springs is calculated as follows: ( (370 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 396 Ratings = 4.874

  • b) 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 Little Trees Day Nursery Celtic Springs is based on 31 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 115 number of registered child places is 23, which has been reached with 31 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
