Jack and Jill's Day Nursery have looked after our daughter on a full time basis for nearly 3 years, since she was 9 months old. She has loved every moment and every carer she has had throughout that time. She has a shy personality, but Jack and Jill's have helped give her confidence and develop into
a popular and happy girl. They have helped tremendously with all other areas and skills and we are hugely grateful for the efforts of all staff. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.

I work at the nursery and my daughter attends the sunbeam room, she absolutely loves going to nursery and has so much fun. The staff in her room provide excellent care and support for her development, including lots of different activities. She has become very confident since being at Jack & Jills.

My two boys (4 and 2) have been going to Jack and Jill's for 18 months on a full time basis. For me the best thing about Jack and Jill's is the level of training of the staff, which several have levels of NVQ and there is a qualified teacher in the pre-school room. The age range of staff from 18 to
grandma! Which I believe gives my boys the best rounded start in life.

Fabulous nursery and caring staff! I have recently given birth and J & J's couldn't have been more supportive. I have been able to bring my girls into nursery and into a familiar, loving environment where the staff have enabled them to embrace the excitement of a baby brother. Jack & Jill's have accommodated
last minute changes to collection times and who collects them. Summer days have seen the children splashing around in the paddling pool and even helping build new garden equipment that arrives daily!

Jack and Jills day nursery is fab. My daughter has been there since she was six months old and is still there and is now nearly two. She has learnt a lot and has become a very loving confident little girl. All the staff are very welcoming and friendly. The management and staff are also very nice and
helpful and always able to help needed.

A friendly nursery with a family environment. Staff know the children very well and cater for their needs with care. Very satisfied with care received for daughter for 2 and a half years so far and I will be sending my son in the near future.

Both my children attend Jack and Jills Day nursery and both absolutely love it. The staff are so friendly, approachable and clearly enjoy their interaction with the children. The gardens are spacious and have a range of activities for the children to participate in. The staff are always coming up with
new ideas and encourage the children to be involved. For example, my son's classroom are currently saving milk bottles to build an igloo in the garden. When I drop the children off I always feel that they are in a safe, enjoyable and educational environment and when I pick them up, the hand overs are always informative and my children leaving smiling and are excited to share their days adventures with me. I am very grateful for the standard of care that Jack and Jills have provided and this is something that calms me when I have an attack of maternal guilt for leaving them to go to work. I would recommend this nursery to anyone and will be sad when my son leaves to start School in September.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.693)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.693) out of 10 for Jack & Jill's Day Nursery 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 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 4.833 for Jack & Jill's Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (160 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.833

  • 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 4.86 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Jack & Jill's Day Nursery is based on 16 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 93 number of registered child places is 18.6. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.6 = 0.86

  • 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.
