My daughter absolutely loves Flying Start. The staff are incredible. They have been instrumental in shaping her into the kind, caring and confident little girl that she is.
The communication is excellent, reporting what she has eaten and activities/learning that has taken place. There is always plenty
of outdoor learning wherever possible, and we love having opportunities for stay and play.
We will be sad when her nursery journey ends, and she goes to school.
There are no hidden costs too, which is great - lunch and snacks are included.
Thanks to all of you for making my daughter's nursery experience such a fabulous one

I was apprehensive for when the time came to leave my child with anyone, but Flying Start eased both my child and myself into it. They warmly welcomed us and made my child feel comfortable and valued. They give updates at the end of each day and by the sounds of it fill their days with activities and
fun. My child is now ready to start school and has loved her preschool experience! Memories she will treasure for life.

A brilliant nursery. My son attends and loves the place. We viewed quite a few nurseries and this instantly seems welcoming and friendly. They have a great balance of fun and education. So many different activities to keep children of all ages entertained. My son really looks forward to attending each
week which makes it a lot easier to send him. Would 100% recommend this nursery.

Our daughter loves this nursery. Been going since 9 months and still there now two and a half years. The staff there are lovely and build a good rapport with parents. Receiving weekly pictures are a good touch for nervous parents when leaving them at first. Daughter comes home telling us stories about
her fun day and trips. Recommend to anyone.

Not enough words to describe all our feelings about this nursery. Our daughter used to have adaptability problems before we started with you. She settled in very well with the place and staff. Management is very helpful and looking for every solution to be sorted. Our daughter with speaking problems
is happy every single day in this nursery. Her development evolved very fast. I've seen with my own eyes the huge effort done by the staff and management to cover the needs of children with problems. In my opinion, they are heroes. Our heroes, please keep doing the same job! And thank you is not enough! I wish I could do more for you after I've seen how you work with all these kids. Love you all!

Staff are very friendly, warm and welcoming. My little one has come on leaps and bounds since joining the setting. I love being able to see updates of my child learning new things which is a great way of communication also with the staff and parents. The setting is presented well and lots of facilities
and space available for the ages of the children that attend the nursery.

I want to thank all the staff for all their hard work and dedication.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our little girl receives at nursery. She attends the Baby Room and has been going for the last 5 months now. The staff are all amazing, friendly, and hands-on. Our little one is always doing fun activities that staff have arranged that are appropriate for the baby's
sensory development and learning, she has plenty of opportunities to explore, get messy, have fun, get some fresh air outside. The snacks and meals they are given are all well balanced, our daughter seems to enjoy it very much. The nursery had a very tough time recently with many staff isolating due to covid/illness and still managed to open for many parents so we could still go to work with some staff even cancelling holidays. A big thank you to Flying Start Camborne for everything you do!

My granddaughter was struggling in nursery with making friends and I used to have tantrums before going in the mornings. I spoke to the staff and they were so helpful and accommodating changing her days and times to suit her and it worked! She’s much more confident and happy now and looks forward to
going to nursery!

My daughter was very nervous about starting nursery as she had a very bad experience with a previous nursery. When I collected her after her first session she had a big smile on her face and couldn't stop saying how much fun she had and could she go again. All the staff members I've met have all been
lovely.

If a child has an accident, parents will be contacted straight away. I get updated on things that happen at the nursery, get updates on the app with pictures. Good food and very good childcare and always trying their best for the children

Such a lovely nursery! If I have ever had any problems they have always listened and helped fix the issue at hand. I really appreciate being listened to. I really love the daily/weekly updates of what my little boy is doing especially with pictures - it’s really relieving. Thank you for taking the time
to listen to me and giving me full updates when I collect my little boy. Very reassuring. Thank you.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My daughter started in October 2021 so has only been attending for a short while, however, it is already clear that this is a great nursery!
I was initially worried at how well my daughter would settle in, as at 18 months old, she had never been away from us or been around other children, but I no
longer worry as she has settled in well and has a great time each week.
All the staff members I have met so far are really lovely and you can tell they genuinely love caring for the children.
The building has a very homely feel and the outdoor space is great! Much better than other nurseries I looked at.
The biggest compliment I can give is that when I ask my daughter if she wants to go to nursery she squeals with excitement and runs to get her shoes and can't wait to get out the door! She really does love going and this can only be down to the wonderful staff and the activities they plan for her.

Excellent school, my children love it. My daughter is naturally very shy and doesn't like meeting new people but has really come out of her shell since joining Camborne Flying Start, I highly recommend them.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.495)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.495) out of 10 for Flying Start @ Camborne 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 7 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 Flying Start @ Camborne is calculated as follows: ( (84 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 84 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 4.495 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Flying Start @ Camborne is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.8 = 0.795

  • 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.
