LaDel’s Day Nursery: A Place to Learn, Play & Grow

At LaDel’s Day Nursery, the team provide a warm, nurturing environment for up to 62 children, from three months to five years old. These early years are a crucial stage of development, where children learn best through play—absorbing knowledge from everything they see, hear, and experience. The nursery is dedicated to fostering curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning through enriching experiences.

The LaDel's Story: A Dream Realised

LaDel’s Day Nursery was founded in 2003, born from the vision of a dedicated mother and early childhood educator. With a degree in Early Childhood Education and a passion for nurturing young minds, she dreamed of creating a space where children feel as safe, loved, and inspired as they do at home. Today, that dream continues to thrive, shaping the lives of countless little learners with joy, exploration, and growth at its heart.

The Space: Designed for Little Explorers

At LaDel’s, every child steps into a world built just for them—spanning 2,000 square metres of inviting indoor spaces and exciting outdoor areas designed to spark creativity.

Indoor Spaces: Soft sensory areas provide comfort for the littlest learners (3 months to 2 years), while older children (2-5 years) enjoy bright, open spaces with imaginative play zones, art stations, and construction areas, encouraging creativity and independence.

Outdoor Adventures: With over 2,000 sqm of nature to explore, children can run, climb, and discover the world around them. From splashing in puddles to digging in the sandpit and enjoying picnics under the sun, they believe outdoor play is just as important as classroom learning, offering endless opportunities for discovery and growth.

At LaDel’s Day Nursery, they are more than just a childcare provider— they are a home away from home, where young minds flourish, friendships blossom, and every day is filled with wonder.

I have known LaDel's Day Nursery for nearly eight years now, as my son was attending previously and I was always joking that if I ever have more children there won't be any doubts that we will come back here. My daughter loves it here!
The management and staff are very kind and approachable and always
make time to talk to you. Thank you very much for everything, it is a gem to find such a lovely nursery!

LaDel's Day Nursery Ltd is one of the nurseries with much great output and outstanding performance. My child was only a year and a few months old when I enrolled her there. In the beginning, I was a little bit doubtful if she was going to make progress but the encouragement and the hardworking of the
management staff proved beyond doubt with much care, excellent tuition, daily activities and many more, have really improved the development and ability of my child. Good staff, conducive equipment, cleanliness, the safety of children, caring and many more are all assured in LaDel's Day Nursery. I will strongly recommend such a nursery for anyone who desires the best for the upbringing of children. Great thanks to all the staff.

Words can not truly express how happy I am with this nurseries' services. The love, care and support that was shown towards my twins and all the other children within the nursery was outstanding. They have great facilities for children and a range of activities. The staff are very supportive, polite
and caring. LaDel's Day Nursery is the best nursery I have come across.

This was one of the best nurseries for me and my child. The manager and staff were always polite, friendly and respectful in all aspects. They are accurate in passing on information whether via newsletter or word of mouth as a reminder. My child was always happy and even more excited to go to nursery
in the mornings, I had no problem and would highly recommend LaDel's Day Nursery.

My son has attended here for over two years. The nursery is run very well with great staff. If ever I need to discuss anything they are happy to do so. I've never had any issues with my sons well being or education whilst he has been there. The nursery has really helped my son with his speech disorder,
even learning and writing Makaton (Sign Language) to help him progress. If ever there has been an incident or accident it has always been relayed to me that day so I am aware. They review the children often so I'm always aware of his progress. They often have event days which the kids love. The nursery is run by an amazing woman who adores the children. I'm happy to say the nursery has exceeded my expectations.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My son attended LaDel's nursery last year. Our family's overall experience with this nursery is wonderful. I must say that all the staff from top to bottom of the hierarchy there, contributed to that experience. Two names will remain in our memories as the most pleasurable experiences we ever had with
the educational system so far. These are the manager of LaDel's, and one of the most experienced teachers. The human approach, generosity, love for the kids, professionalism in classrooms and at the playground and I can go on and on, trying to describe something that actually has to be personally experienced. I can't express enough my personal gratitude to the staff of LaDel's. My son was having English as a second language. When he started with LaDel's he didn't know/speak any. By the third week, he felt comfortable and used the English language as a language of preferable choice. In conclusion, I can only recommend LaDel's to anyone.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.981)

Review Score Change Log

Please note changes are only recorded per day, so if 2 or more changes occur in the same day, it will only show the result from all the changes, not an individual breakdown of all the changes

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.981) out of 10 for LaDel's Day Nursery Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.981 for LaDel's Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.981

  • 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 LaDel's Day Nursery Ltd is based on 13 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 13 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.
