My son has been attending Cleverclogs for a year now and he loves it. Knowing he is happy and safe gives me peace of mind each day. The staff are caring and engaging with the children and know them each individually. The garden is an amazingly big space and my little one loves to explore whenever he
can. Really lovely nursery and have recommended it to other parents looking for a nursery in the local area.

Reply from Sharnie Bruce, Manager at CleverClogs Cringleford

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so pleased that we are able to give you peace of mind. He really does enjoy his time at nursery and we love to see him having so much fun exploring our outdoor area too.

I was nervous to send my little boy to nursery, but he's settled in so well at Cleverclogs. The staff are brilliant and he absolutely loves it - it's been so good for his development.
I'd definitely recommend Cleverclogs.

I think the fact our son sometimes clings to the door frame, not wanting to leave when we come to pick him up, just speaks volumes about Cleverclogs! He had attended for the last nine months and we have been so impressed with what we’ve seen. The staff are brilliant and you can tell they really care
about the children. They do some lovely activities and have lots of things for the children to do/play with. The garden is fabulous too, especially with the addition of the vegetable patch. Really lovely, kind and caring nursery.

I couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery in Cleverclogs Day Nursery, Cringleford. My son has been there since he was 1 and has been in both the baby and toddler room.
The activities they do with the children are so imaginative and I love the emphasis on outdoor play.
The staff are all very
caring and attentive and we have been very happy with our son's key person in each room.
The contact via the app always provides details of daily activities and lots of lovely photos!

My son started nursery here only seven months ago and joined the toddler group, we moved to the area and needed to find a nursery and Cleverclogs Day Nursery seemed the best fit. Best decision ever, the first day my son started he absolutely loved it! He bounces into nursery every morning and most days
does not want to leave! He's made some great friends and is always talking about them! The staff are amazing and really go the extra mile and since going his speech has improved and his learning is coming on so well. The outdoor area is great and they always do lots of activities. I can go to work and know my son is having the best day!

Cleverclogs Day Nursery is a wonderful nursery! The staff are brilliant - supportive and caring. The garden is great and so unusual to find a nursery with so much outdoor space. They have been so great with our daughter who was very shy.

I've been using Cleverclogs Day Nursery since my 5-year-old was 9 months, he is now at school and has taken to it brilliantly thanks to all the preparation at Cleverclogs. My daughter just turned 3 and loves being in the pre-school room.
Since the start, the care both kids have received at Cleverclogs
has been so personal. The staff take such a genuine interest in your child's needs, interests and personality and you really feel they care just as much as you do about their happiness. They put so much effort into all the activities they do with the kids, my daughter tries something new every day and school have said my son has an amazing understanding of the world around him which I think is thanks to how fun Cleverclogs have made learning for him.
Both kids eat really well at Cleverclogs including vegetables they won't touch at home and we had great support for potty training. The whole team are really happy, caring and most of all fun.

Our son has just passed his two-year mark of being at the nursery and in that time the staff have had to navigate the Covid-19 pandemic whilst also providing a safe, creative, nurturing and educational setting. I'm pleased to say they have done this and so much more. They provide clear communication
from the management through to the staff and us as parents and more importantly our son loves going on each of his days. We haven't used a nursery before so can't compare but I can say I wouldn't need to try anywhere else! Thank you for all your hard work, our family appreciate everything you do!

I have nothing but praise for Cleverclogs Day Nursery! They are so warm and friendly and take their time doing even the smallest of things. Our son is thriving and always laughs which is exactly what we wanted from a nursery. They know their children and they always seem to enjoy their jobs.
I am
so happy we selected this nursery and recommend it as a place to any parent.

My son is in the under 2 room and his face lights up when we drop him off every day, he loves it! The staff are so caring and attentive and are always doing new activities with him. They always encourage him to do new things and try new foods. It made going back to work after maternity leave much easier
knowing he was in safe hands.

I have been using Cleverclogs Day Nursery Cringleford for about 4 years or more now, with my eldest and now my youngest also. They have all been amazing. The care they take on all children individually is brilliant. The food is always well received by both my boys! Nothing bad to say. They prepared
my eldest so well for school. Keep up the good work.

My son loves the preschool room and is often keen to go and stay! He loves his key worker, and we are so pleased with the progress he is making! He will be very sad come September when he moves onto school but, I will highly recommend this nursery to all my friends and family.

We have been using Cleverclogs for our children for a number of years and really appreciate how the individual needs of the children have been met. Routines as babies are kept and the information we have about what they have been doing is clear.
The smaller nursery environment really suited our children,
enabling them to see their siblings during the day.
The staff are welcoming and always available to talk through any concerns and any issues we have had have been resolved quickly and well.
When any friends are looking in the area for a nursery - we always recommend Cleverclogs.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.528)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.528) out of 10 for CleverClogs Cringleford is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 3 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 5.000 for CleverClogs Cringleford is calculated as follows: ( (36 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.528 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for CleverClogs Cringleford is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.278

  • 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.
