Our eldest son went through Magic Roundabout Nursery and our youngest son is currently attending. In the last five years, we've been very impressed with all that the nursery offers, especially when it comes to understanding individual children's needs. We're also impressed by the improvements made inside
and outside the nursery, following consultation with the parents/carers.

My daughter has been attending Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol since she was 9 months old, she's now nearly 4. We have always had a really positive experience, she loves going and asks to go even on her home days! The staff in all rooms & management are very approachable and the communication between
staff and parents is great. The Parent Link App is also very good when in a rush or even more so now with Covid.
They really take the time to get to know and encourage the children, treating them all as individuals and really nurturing them and their development. I'd certainly recommend the nursery without hesitation.

Great facilities, good location and dedicated staff. My daughter has a wonderful time; learning, having fun, playing with her friends and being outdoors. The team are approachable, very caring, friendly and treat children as individuals. My daughter is developing a lot through play and activities at
nursery. I also feel that the team went above and beyond during lockdown; producing home packs with creative ideas, establishing a youtube channel and hosting weekly zoom sessions to enable the children and staff team to keep in contact. I couldn't be happier.

My child attended Magic Roundabout Nursery from one year to pre-school, and I am very happy with the nursery and my child's progress there. The staff have consistently been caring and enthusiastic, especially in terms of settling my child in initially, when moving classes and also in assisting with
naps.
I would recommend this nursery.

My son has attended Magic Roundabout since he was nine months old and he is now in pre-school. My son has progressed and developed well since attending nursery and he has formed some good relationships with the staff and formed some great friendships amongst his peers.
We have been consistently
impressed with the nursery, especially during lockdown where they took the time to do weekly Zoom sessions and also YouTube videos to keep the children engaged and connected during this difficult time.
We are very happy with this nursery and would definitely recommend Magic Roundabout to others.

My 2 children have attended Magic Roundabout Nursery for the past 18 months, and have been in (nearly) every room at the school. They are excited every morning about going in and seeing their friends and teachers, and the staff have done a very good job at making sure they have fun every day. The kids
especially love the large garden space which they use often. We are happy with Magic Roundabout Nursery because we feel that they are being well looked after and in an environment that is providing a lot of stimulation to keep them busy. The teachers and management have always been willing to listen when we have a concern and work with us to address any issues that have come up.

My son goes to this nursery and has done so since he was 11 months. He continued to go through lockdown and we have remained really happy with his care. The staff all seem genuinely caring and fun. He is always excited to go and looks happy (and tired) at the end of the day. I enjoy the feedback on
the app. The staff have also been really accommodating with things like cloth nappies and diet changes. As we work shift work they have also gone out of their way to help with changes in schedules etc.

Our son has been going to the Magic Roundabout nursery in Bristol for nearly two years. Since the age of one, he has always been very happy there and we have always been so happy with the care they offer him. The practitioners always seem pleased to see him. The nursery has responded appropriately to
the coronavirus risk and have put appropriate safeguards in place, so he has returned to nursery at the earliest opportunity. We intend for our son to remain here for his pre-school year and I have no qualms about recommending the Magic Roundabout nursery to other families.

My son has been attending the nursery since he was nine months old (now nearly three). He has always enjoyed coming to nursery and often doesn't want to leave his friends. The nursery has a very large open garden with lovely areas for the children to explore. The staff are always very attentive and
very knowledgeable of my child's needs. There is always a large range of activities that the children take part in and before Covid they went on lots of trips around the local area.
The nursery has recently introduced a parent app for feedback and observation which is great.

Magic Roundabout Bristol is a lively, happy and caring environment where my son has thoroughly enjoyed himself since day one. The managers provide professional and dedicated day-to-day management and they are both extremely approachable and ready to discuss and resolve any issues as they arise. The
room leaders are equally enthusiastic and on top of things, resulting in a strong sense of trust that my child is safe and well cared for as an individual. Excellent use is made of the large garden on a daily basis, in all weathers, and there are lots of craft activities as well as visiting music, PE and language teachers, all of which I value highly. Most importantly my son has made some strong friendships which is testament to how he has been thriving at this nursery. We have really missed the nursery during lockdown and cannot wait to return. I’ll also be sending my youngest son in to join his brother.

My little one has been at this nursery since she was about 11 months old. I have been extremely impressed with the nursery throughout the last two years. Every member of staff I meet is extremely friendly to me and to my daughter. My daughter talks about members of staff when she’s not there and it’s
obvious to me how much she likes them. The activities they do in the day seem extremely well thought through, and they seem to do a real variety. I’ve been really impressed with how my daughter has developed in her time there.

Our son has thoroughly enjoyed his time at this nursery. The staff are so welcoming when he arrives and genuinely seem to really care about him. He gets to do all manners of activities and always eats really well there. The flexibility around drop off and pick up is a real help in our line of work too.
I'd definitely recommend this nursery to any parents.

I have used Magic Roundabout for the last five years for two of my children. A fantastic group of people. I must commend the manager for her amazing leadership, I true asset to the nursery.
They have helped my children to develop their speech, their fine motor skills and even managed to crack potty
training!
The only one negative about the place is the senior management who you do not see day to day. They occasionally turn up in their Mercedes AMG and I would actually say they were a little rude.
Apart from that, I think it’s a fantastic nursery with lovely events and great people - thank you.

We've had experience of Magic Roundabout Nursery over a combined period of five years with both of our children attending. The experience throughout has been very positive; a warm and caring environment in which the children have thrived, eaten well, made friendships (as have the parents) and enjoyed
every minute. I've been particularly impressed with how they've developed their knowledge of art and languages, and the comprehensive learning records we've had back. The staff have also been excellent and show real love towards the children they're responsible for, as well as forming good relationships with the parents. Facilities are good, with a decent-sized outdoor play area and secure shelters for parking buggies/bikes. This nursery has been part of our lives for several years, and we fully move into primary school life with some great memories and happy to recommend to other parents in the area.

Our two children have had a great time at the Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol. The staff have always lovingly cared for our children and engaged them in fun and educational activities. They are both at school now, and the staff have helped them get ready for school. I would highly recommend the nursery.

My 20-month-old son just started in Magic Roundabout Nursery last month and we are so happy with the nursery. He developed so much since he started, he loves the food, he loves the staff, he is really happy there. The garden is great and the atmosphere is just really good. We feel that we are also a
key piece for the nursery that always tries to involve the parents as much as they can. I would recommend this nursery with no doubt!

My child has been attending the nursery for over 6 months, he has a great relationship with his key person and we received detailed feedback at the end of the day. The nursery has had lots of work done to the environment including a new garden and decorating the rooms. The staff are very attentive and
knowledgeable. I feel my child is very well looked after and enjoys his time spent there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.890)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.890) out of 10 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.890 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol is calculated as follows: ( (246 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 273 Ratings = 4.89

  • 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 Magic Roundabout Nursery Bristol is based on 23 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6, which has been reached with 23 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.
