The Kindred Mayflower nursery team is passionate about sparking children’s imagination, creativity and curiosity.

This is why here at Kindred Mayflower they use natural and real life resources to enhance children’s imagination through play.

The nursery has five rooms and two outside garden spaces along with a free flow classroom.
Their gardens consist of soft grass play surfacing, built in sand pits, a track to ride bikes and cars and planting areas.

They are all about creating inspiring experiences and environments that are full of awe and wonder for little ones to grow and thrive in.

Staff also understand what it is to be a parent during this magical time and create meaningful
relationships with parents so they never miss an opportunity to share in the joy of each and every one of their child’s developmental and learning moments.

After we moved house I was very anxious in finding a new nursery from my youngest. I worried for nothing. My daughter is incredibly happy in Dizzy Ducks! The staff are always there to give her a cuddle and breakfast when she arrives. Everyone is lively and fully interacting with the children. My daughter
always comes home with happy stories of her day.

My daughter is part of the baby group 1 day a week. I'm still amazed that, although she has a key worker who she loves and has bonded well with, all of the girls know her name from all parts of the nursery and welcome her with open arms. The team are happy to receive calls and give time at the pick
up to explain how her day has been, what she's been up and and what she's eaten. The online daily log is great to see and also add comments.

My two children have been at Dizzy Ducks since they were 9 months old and I couldn't ask for a more caring, supportive yet challenging environment for them. Right from when they were babies they have been loved and supported in their development. Whilst the care has always been first rate and the opportunities
they have had outstanding, the real value in my opinion was the year before school. In a small group (compared to some other preschools) my son was given first rate preparation for his transition to school. I have recently given up work and no longer need the same extent of childcare for my daughter but have made the decision to remain with Dizzy Ducks so that she can have the same excellent preschool environment as my son.

Dizzy ducks Mayflower has cared for both of my children, my daughter left last year to start school and thanks to dizzy ducks she was very prepared for this and has settled in extremely well. When looking to start my son in nursery I was very happy for him to start in the same setting and they have
been brilliant when it comes to additional needs. When he started he was requiring several different medications daily and a special diet and they have good plans in place for allowing this. The kitchen and meals have evolved a lot over the time here and they cope brilliantly with a wide range of different dietary needs from different children and stock lots of alternatives so that children do not miss out on what their friends are having. I will be sad to leave Dizzy entirely when it is time for my son to start school but feel they will have prepared him well.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.420)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.420) out of 10 for Kindred Mayflower Nursery and Pre-school 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 10 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 4.925 for Kindred Mayflower Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (111 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.925

  • 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 4.495 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred Mayflower Nursery and Pre-school is based on 10 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 101 number of registered child places is 20.2. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.2 = 0.495

  • 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.
