Good 'ofsted' rating.

Cygnets Day Nursery has been amazing with my daughter, I couldn’t have picked a better nursery if I tried! All the staff are so friendly and kind. They go above and beyond always, to help the children strive and achieve.

Our experience of the nursery has been exceptional. I was very concerned about leaving my little boy as he had not been looked after by anyone other than myself and my husband due to lockdown. However, I needn't have worried as each member of staff has been incredible, ensuring my little boy is cared
for to the highest level. My son also has a large number of allergies, and I feel so confident in the staff's ability to deal with any issues or incidents that arise.
Lots of activities, internal and external, have been planned throughout his time there as well, which is brilliant. All in all, a brilliant nursery.

My daughter attends Cygnets Day Nursery and absolutely loves it. The staff are fantastic all-round, communication is never an issue and I receive detailed updates daily and through the app they use for any general nursery updates or her development. I am thrilled with the progress my daughter is making
and cannot thank the staff enough for all they do. You can tell they absolutely love their jobs and I couldn't recommend the nursery enough.

My little boy has grown so much in confidence since starting Cygnets Day Nursery. He adores the girls within the room and always gives them a big smile. The staff have been a huge help with offering advice and supporting us and him with their home-from-home approach. It's nice to know that when he is
dropped off he is happy and content and I cannot thank the staff enough.

Both my son and daughter have attended Cygnets Day Nursery and their time spent there has been amazing. The staff are so kind and caring, they are passionate about their jobs and give the children the best experience. I get regular updates, both verbal and electronically. I am really pleased with how
both my children have flourished during their time at Cygnets Day Nursery.

From walking in the door on the first visit, I can tell the care, dedication and passion the whole team showed. We felt so welcome and could tell how happy the environment was. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it again and again. Happy, friendly, caring team, and almost three years later, our like one
is happy walking in those doors! Thank you, Cygnets, for welcoming us, making our little one so happy, but also supporting her development.

Cygnets Day Nursery is the best choice I could so for my three-year-old boy. Super friendly and honest staff, fresh and varied meals for kids, lots of activities referring to every child's age and needs. Being a single mum all the staff were very supportive and understanding, becoming my new best tactic
in my son's educational process. They help me a lot in putting a strong stake in my son's development and I'll never be able to recommend and tell them thank you enough.

We love the staff at Cygnets; they are so caring and create great bonds with the children. The outside space is great, very natural, with lots of digging and mud kitchen activities available. The daily app is great at keeping us in the loop, and staff respond to queries very quickly. Our daughter has
just potty trained, and we found it really easy with the ladies at Cygnets. They told us everything that happened that day and supported our daughter, who can be sensitive at times. I’m really happy with the food at Cygnets; the choice is varied and healthy. I think gives them a taste of something different with every menu change. We are very happy with the nursery and recommend it to our friends and family!

Cygnets is a lovely nursery. My little girl has been going here since she was one and has loved every moment. Every room has friendly staff, and well-planned activities get published for us to see. My youngest is now at the nursery, and again is so happy and goes in every morning with no problems.

My eldest daughter is going to Cygnets Day Nursery and she is going to start year 'R' in September. I got lots of positive things to say about Cygnets. First, about the staffing, the staff are excellent, so caring and patient. I have seen many children crying when they are going home after nursery.
That is really unusual. I think it's just because of the good staffing. They celebrate the special days (e.g. Father's/Mother's Day) and make some cards which help the children to understand these special days. I'll never forget about the sports day activities and the parents invited as well to support and see their little ones playing on that day. Cygnets Nursery is well organised and also the best in childcare.

My son has been at Cygnets Day Nursery for the last sixteen months and has always enjoyed going. He has been well supported by staff and when necessary have been flexible if needed to change days or swap a day.
He has made friends and settled in and he enjoys the outdoor space that is available - made
out of natural materials. Highly recommend this nursery.

We are very happy with our daughter's social and academic development since she joined Cygnets Day Nursery. The teachers are friendly and extremely capable. They really look after our daughter well. The management team is very helpful and having meals provided was also a huge advantage.
Our daughter
has made a lot of friends and has a good relationship with the teachers.
This is a fantastic nursery and we would highly recommend.

I am very happy with Cygnets Day Nursery. My daughter is happy to go there and play with everyone. The staff are lovely and everyone there is very helpful and friendly. My daughter speaks three languages and I was worried about it. But her English is so good. Very happy with everything.

Staff a bit lacking in advice and opinion of what our child is up to during the day and seem more interested to say what the lunch was that was served.

Overall, Cygnets is a wonderful nursery with staff who are friendly and helpful. Our daughter loves to attend and goes in very happy at drop off, which confirms that she enjoys it there. Any issues we had were quickly resolved by the manager and staff (this was regarding the updates on the app). Our
daughter's development has progressed so much in the last year since starting Cygnets.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.937)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.937) out of 10 for Cygnets Day Nursery 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.937 for Cygnets Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (236 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.937

  • 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 Cygnets Day Nursery is based on 21 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 21 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.
