9.8 101 Reviews
Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Madley Park has a modern nursery which is spacious and bright and has 5 rooms (one for each age group).

The nursery is big on happy children, they have a growing area for food (and eating it) and have regular visits to local care homes. They are also big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained.

They have 5 Little Pioneers who help share their core values with children such as encouraging them to be independent to making a difference in the world. Their ParentZone app keeps parents/carers informed about life at nursery with photos from their day, assessments, meals eaten and even toilet training progress!

They hold the silver award in the prestigious Green Flag Eco-schools programme which sees children lead the way in making little changes that have big environmental differences.

The nursery has its own garden area that allows the children to play outside all year round. One section of the garden has been designed as a beach, giving the children the freedom to explore and experiment with texture and volume.

My daughter loves going to nursery. She has attended for nearly 4 years and she has learnt so much from her time there. The staff are very friendly and always so happy, they make such an effort with the children and plan such lovely activities each day. The food is great with a very varied menu.
I
fully trust the staff to look after my daughter and she is very happy there which makes me happy too.

Fantastic nursery with staff that really care and are friendly and attentive. My children started as 1-year-olds, the eldest was very happy there for four years and my youngest is still very happy there. They’ve learned so much, had lots of fun and made friends. Great routines as well as lots of activities
and free play, and a fun, safe garden. Highly recommend.

My children started here recently and due to the warm staff, they both settled in well. I love the opportunities that the preschoolers have to learn key skills through the regular use of phonics and numeracy. The staff are caring and want the best for the children. The communication between the management
and parents is excellent. Mums and dads are made aware of all nursery news and updates plus Madley Park Coop Childcare is very progressive and forward-looking. The only downs side is that they don’t offer a term-time only contract, so for me, this works out quite expensive, but despite knowing this, I still decided that this is the best place for my children and so it has proved.

My son loves attending and has done so since March 2019 he has great friends to grow up with. The carers are fantastic and engage the children in lots of fun and educational activities. There is a wonderful outside safe garden which the children play in at least once a day to ensure they get exercise,
fresh air and interaction with different aged children. They cater for all dietary requirements (my son is allergic to both dairy and soya, with a number of other foods being an issue). The chef has no issues catering for him and he eats almost every meal.

The staff are lovely, very friendly and all make an effort to say hello to you and your child. My child is always very happy to go to the nursery and quite often does not want to leave when we come to pick her up. The level of planning that goes into the activities is great, I wouldn't be able to replicate
the same thing at home.

A Fantastic Nursery which all three of my children have attended and loved. The staff are brilliant with each individual child and know how that child needs to be greeted each morning, enabling them to settle into the room quickly and calmly. The outside area is a wonderful space where they can play,
explore, grow plants and let off energy.
The food is healthy and helps children to explore new tastes. The children are encouraged to do more throughout the nursery as each child gets older, which helps them to learn new skills, grow in confidence and prepare them for school, which is such a lovely idea. The manager has been amazing since her first day and has grown from strength to strength, taking the nursery with her also. She really listens to parents and makes improvements based on what she hears, she is great with the children, knowing each child's name and always has a happy greeting and is smiling. Its such a wonderful environment and I can't recommend it enough!

Both my children have attended this setting and they love to go to nursery. The team are very friendly and welcoming and put you at ease when leaving your children in their care. I get thorough handovers on pick up and I am updated regularly throughout the day via a parents app. The staff are always
more than happy to help and support with any concerns you have and have been great at helping my eldest with his speech. Although still a while away I'll be sad to see my children leave to go to school!

Our daughter has been at the Co-op nursery since she was one and she is now in the pre-school room. The staff in every room have been fantastic - so friendly and really seem to care for each child. We are always made to feel welcome in the morning and there is a good handover each evening. The food
is great - she gets a varied diet and eats everything! Lots of different activities each day and lots of time outdoors. She is so happy there - which means we’re happy too!

I cannot recommend the nursery highly enough. The team are fantastic and brilliantly led. We have been using their services for 3 years and will continue to do so until our youngest goes to school. I have always trusted them completely and am reassured in the knowledge that we have left our children
somewhere safe and enriching.

I have had all my children go to this nursery and it has gotten better each year. It does seem to have a high turnover of staff BUT looking on the bright side, I feel that it just makes my child more adaptable to change. Plus, the turnover doesn’t seem to affect the day to day running of the place.
Also, any staff they have bought in to the nursery are absolutely lovely. Never had any problems with them. More so, i’ve always noted that they have a very strong focus on child safety.

My eldest has been there since he was 10 months and he is now 3 and a half. My youngest has now been there for 3 months and has settled in really well.


The staff are all fantastic and really friendly.

My eldest son went here a few years ago and I must say the atmosphere and improvements since the current manager started
are astounding.

I would highly recommend Co-operative Childcare Madley Park. In my experience, my son has been very well taken care of and every measure to safeguard him has been taken. The menu is varied and nutritionally beneficial. The use of parent zone sets me at ease as it is regularly updated and I am able to
track my son's eating and learning process. I am never left wondering how well my son ate or what he has been up to. My son has gone from strength to strength under the wings of his key persons and the rest of the staff at Madley Park.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.827)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.827) out of 10 for Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Madley Park 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.827 for Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Madley Park is calculated as follows: ( (270 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 323 Ratings = 4.827

  • 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 Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Madley Park is based on 27 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 73 number of registered child places is 14.6, which has been reached with 27 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.
