Both my sons have benefitted hugely from their time at Roslin. The staff are extremely committed and all have provided my children with high-quality care and support. The nursery is a very nurturing environment and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to other parents.

My son attended Roslin Nursery from 14 months old until he was four and a half. He went through all three rooms at Roslin and we have been impressed with the level of care he has received. Roslin very much has a family feel to it and the staff genuinely care about the children and each other. My son
has now started school and I believe Roslin have prepared him well for this. He has a firm foundation of phonics, numbers, letters and more importantly skills to make friends and have good communication. I thoroughly recommend Roslin.

My son attended Roslin for three years on a part time basis from 9 months old to 3 and a half years old. Leaving a baby in another person's care is a very hard choice for any new parent, and the team at Roslin understood that very much. They were very attentive to him when he first settled in. He quickly
formed bonds with different members of staff and his confidence grew.


Even as a baby, the environment at Roslin is very creative and engaging and they always have the children involved in many different activities. At every stage of my son's time at Roslin he was lovingly cared for, transitioned through the various classes and guided through all sorts of development. His character has grown so much in the time he has been there and he really loved going to nursery. I have to say that I was very impressed with the food that was cooked by the resident chef for all the children, at all stages. I always felt good knowing that my son had healthy meals to eat whilst he wasn't at home with me.

Lovely, friendly, caring environment. Our boy picked up many skills and became confident and socially adept. Always happy to help. Was very sad to leave when we moved house in January. Would recommend to anybody!

Choosing a nursery for my son was difficult, leaving him with strangers was a daunting thought. We viewed 4 nurseries in the local area ranging from £50.00 - £90.00 per day. When we came to visit it just had a lovely feel to it and the staff were so welcoming. Our son who was 18 months old played there
straight away. We didn't hesitate and signed him there for 2 days a week. He started in Oct 2016 and at first, he was dubious but now he waves us off in the mornings and he loves going. There is a physical playroom which is great and he paints, colours, plays, sings and talks and is getting more social all the time. Highly recommended.

My son started attending Roslin Nursery in late August. The staff were amazing, helping him to settle in and although the beginning was hard for him, he soon started looking forward to going to nursery. The staff are very professional but warm and loving at the same time. They have a great relationship
with the children and truly care about them. The children are supported with their learning and social skills. The nursery has good facilities and provides great child care.

My son has attended since 10 months and is now 3, and has loved it here. The staff genuinely care for the children, and my son has always given the staff big cuddles in the morning, so loves them too. Great facilities including 'extra' pay for options, and for me, it's the right size and the opposite
of a chain-style nursery, feeling very welcoming and homely. Some areas of admin could improve, eg. bills can be confusing with all the childcare voucher/15 hour free payments.

A really caring and personal nursery. Staff are great, dedicated and caring. Any concerns or problems are listened too and dealt with quite collaboratively with parents. So pleased we found this nursery when we did.

Our daughter has been at Roslin for a year, since she was 11 months old. She absolutely loves it and it's a fantastic nursery, with genuinely caring staff, who really tailor things to their individual characters and needs. I feel like my daughter is not just looked after, but loved.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.750)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.750) out of 10 for Roslin 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.750 for Roslin Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.75

  • 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 Roslin Nursery is based on 12 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 57 number of registered child places is 11.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
