Gingerbread Corner has provided my daughter with excellent care as a nursery facility, and now as she attends school she is able to benefit from their excellent breakfast and after-school club, along with pick-up and drop off to her school.


She always enjoys spending time in the various settings

either playing, creating, burning off energy in the romp room or adventure playground. She has built close and loving relationships with the staff, and I could not be happier and have a great piece of mind that my daughter is well taken care of when I am at work.


A loving family establishment of experienced staff who really care about the well being and learning of our children.

My daughter goes to Gingerbread Corner, and she likes it. She found there, new friends. She likes singing and enjoys to sing in the nursery. Care in Gingerbread is good and I'm happy with it. I can definitely recommend the Gingerbread Corner to other parents. Thank you very much for your concern.

My kids love Gingerbread. My son starts at the nursery and is now in the after school. He cries if we pick him up too early. Both my kids also attend the holiday club which they really enjoy. I don't know what we would do without Gingerbread. It's a great place for my 4-year-old and 6 years old.

Gingerbread is a really good nursery I feel very confident in how both my children are taken care of and I have never had any issues with any workers or the care of my children. Gingerbread is a fun and warm environment for children, my son enjoys going to nursery every day and my daughter enjoys the
activities for the after school club and also holiday club which is great to know.

My son has been attending for 6 months and has come on leaps and bounds. He loves all the staff members and so do I! They always go that extra mile to help and get to know each and every child well. We moved recently away from the nursery but I'm happy to travel the extra for him to still go here.

Gingerbread Corner has been supportive and instrumental in my daughter's development. The staff are always polite and care about each child individually. Without Gingerbread Corner I could not return to work.
A true gem of Croydon.

Gingerbread Corner is by far the best nursery in Croydon!
When my child leaves to start big school I shall still pop in to say hello.
It's a real shame that Gingerbread Corner doesn't have a primary school as they run such an amazing nursery establishment.

I fell in love with Gingerbread the moment I was shown around. The staff are brilliant and the facilities are excellent. You really need to view it for yourself to get a feel for it. The team are extremely well organised and the staff are genuine and friendly.

Great service from all staff and the need for what Gingerbread offers me is so greatly appreciated in order for working mums to exist. The mamgerment team work great with communicating with parents and the activities to keep the children active are greatly thought about. My son loves it there and I
love the convenience of Gingerbread being there. 10/10!

Staff who work directly with the children are observed to engage with the children well. They appear enthusiastic in the after school club and are seen focusing on what the children are doing, making sure no one is left out. When there is a concern or issue raised with the after school leader, she is
observed to be listening and addresses whatever the matter may be promptly and feeds back to the parent, which is excellent to have a great work ethic balance. Also appreciate the staff making an effort to say goodbye to my child, despite how many children they have said goodbye to! This continues to promote good manners which I bring my son up to have. Reception staff are very accommodating and always willing to help.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.588)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.588) out of 10 for Gingerbread Corner is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 5 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 4.797 for Gingerbread Corner is calculated as follows: ( (47 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.797

  • 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 3.791 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Gingerbread Corner is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 86 number of registered child places is 17.2. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.2 = 0.291

  • 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.
