My daughter's needs are always met with this nursery. The staff that work closely with her always go above and beyond. She has lots of friends, and she has something new to tell us every day. I and Mom are very happy.

Springthorpe Day Nursery has very competent and professional staff members. In addition, my child likes being around and playing with the other children and members of staff. I strongly believe this is the best environment for every parent who is looking for a nursery.

I would highly recommend this nursery. Both my two older children attended the nursery, and 10-years later, when I had my youngest, I still chose nursery. After looking at several different nurseries, I still found this one was the best.

Apprehensive to leave my son on his first day of nursery, not only me, but my son didn't want to leave me either. Not knowing the staff didn't make it any easier. However, on the first day, the moment we walked through the door, the staff made us both comfortable, to the point my son didn't look back
at me, and I had no concerns about where I left him. I called several times on his first day to check how he was, each and every time, the staff were happy to talk to me and give me an update, and at no point did they get frustrated, kept giving me verbal reassurance, and I could sense happiness in their voices. I remember being a child, many years ago, crying as I didn't want to go to nursery, my son, on the other hand, asks when he can return and play with his friends; he tells me stories about his teachers and other children. I would highly recommend this nursery, and my next child will also be going here.

Great nursery with great staff. My son loves to go there, not even one cry. Lots of activities with kids that teach them. Good communication with them, daily updates and friendly management. Highly recommended.

My daughter started this nursery in April. She has a good relationship with the staff. The manager is fantastic; she is very welcoming and very helpful. My daughter loves outdoor play. I am very happy with the activities provided too. The nursery is clean and tidy. The environment is very welcoming.
I would recommend this nursery to all new parents.

My little boy has recently started at this nursery. He has struggled with the transition of starting nursery in general, but the staff are amazing. They are always reassuring to myself and my boy, which gives me peace of mind.
The garden facilities are his favourite, and I love how they have them
playing outdoors as much as possible.

My daughter started nursery in September 2021. Amazing staff. I totally can trust the keyworker and manager; they beautifully welcomed my daughter to the nursery. So professional and supportive. I myself work with children, and it was very difficult to leave my child, but with my child's keyworker being
so supportive and the manager being so understanding, I can leave my child at the nursery without any fear.

Springthorpe Day Nursery & Pre-school have recently taken over. The staff remain the same, which has made things easier for the transition as a trustworthy relationship has already been built with staff. My child still seems very happy to attend the nursey. If I have any concerns, staff are very quick
to reassure me. Overall, a good nursey!

My child's childcare in Springthorpe is absolutely amazing. The staff are always very welcoming, professional, and my daughter looks forward to going to the nursey. They have all facilities for children, and the staff are very supportive in developing my child, informing me on her day to day activities
and how to best support her at home. Very pleased by the day centre and can't recommend it enough.

My daughter recently started here after transferring from another nursery.
The staff and the facilities at the nursery have been amazing for my daughter's settlement.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.300)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.300) out of 10 for Springthorpe Day Nursery & Pre-school 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 8 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 4.833 for Springthorpe Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (99 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.833

  • 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 4.467 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Springthorpe Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.667

  • 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.

Bilal Iqbal

Job Title: Deputy Manager

Joined: 2024

Hello,


My name is Bilal Iqbal and I joined Tommies Childcare in March 2024, where I am the Deputy Manager at Springthorpe Day Nursery.


I started my childcare journey as an apprentice. It began with a fervent curiosity about how children learn and grow, which led me to achieve my Level 3 qualification in Childcare and then work my way up to my new role as Deputy Manager. In this time, I have not only come to develop my passion for childcare but also my love for child development. I’ve had the privilege of working closely with children of diverse backgrounds, abilities and temperaments, honing my skills in fostering their social, emotional and cognitive development.


As Deputy Manager, I am committed to supporting families, empowering staff, and sharing my values such as believing every child is unique and deserves to be respected and encouraged to explore the world around them.


Together let's embark on a journey of discovery, learning and endless possibilities. Arrange a visit to Springthorpe today!
