My family is very happy with the service provided. Both my daughter (2) and son (10) attend. Staff are very happy to help and are polite, they are like an extension of the family.
The team are very supportive and provide all-round care for the children. They are involved in many activities that keep
the children stimulated which enhances their learning.

Gingerbread Corner has changed a lot since my oldest daughter attended over ten years ago, but the greatest thing is a lot of the staff haven't, which for myself is the most important reason for sending my now five-year-old there.
They are like family to me and I know my little one would be well cared
for, have lots and lots of fun and be safe.
Thank you.

My daughter has been going to Gingerbread Corner for nearly 7 years now. The love, care and support she gets from the staff is really outstanding. She really loves it there. The timing of the place is also very good and it allows me to go to work stress-free knowing my daughter would be looked after
quite well.

I used the Gingerbread Center when I was going through a difficult time in my life. The care that my children and I received was exceptional. I attended the parent pod sessions and met some life long friends. The sessions helped me deal with some of the anxieties of being a parent and issues from my
childhood that had been carried through adulthood. I can't thank the staff at the centre for all their support and I was really blessed to have found the centre.

Absolutely amazing nursery went above and beyond not only for my children but every child that passed through their doors. My son has a disability and straight away they treated him like any other children there he was never left out and always included in the activities. Their food was cooked from
fresh and everyday on site.

I found the Gingerbread Club to be very child-friendly as it catered for different ages. The centre is well equipped and has a huge variety of activities. My two children were never bored while there and looked forward to going. The centre hours are fantastic and suited my work schedule and the staff
are friendly and helpful.

Great nursery! My son was an extremely fussy eater and with their time and care, he began eating a wider range of food.


My daughter was shy, with their help, she is now more confident.


They are always helpful, efficient and have lots of events for parents or carers to get involved in. It is a

great nursery and thankful we are here.

I have two kids in the Gingerbread Corner and one left in December but was unhappy to leave Gingerbread Corner. He was very very happy and always look forward going to Gingerbread Corner after school and during school holidays. My son did not want to leave Gingerbread and he was sad to leave and I think
they should increase the age group to 15 years. The staff and the management were excellent and kids are free to go to any manager's office and talk to them.
I would highly recommend anyone to take their child to Gingerbread Corner. My younger son still goes there during the holidays and I will be sad when it come to end.
Both my sons love Gingerbread Corner.

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.
