My son has been at Flutterbies since he was 8-months-old and he is now 4 and starts school in September. The staff at the nursery have been amazing and helped him develop over the years, I could not have wished for more.
I will always be grateful for all the care they have taken of my son.

Reply from Angela Brady, Nursery Manager at Flutterbies Day Nursery & Pre-school

It's been such a pleasure to have him at the nursery, and I know that he will be missed by the staff here at Flutterbies. On behalf of the team, we wish you and your family all the very best for the future, and thank you for choosing Flutterbies Day Nursery. All the best. Angela Brady.

My son and daughter attend Flutterbies and are in First Steps and also the baby room. Both children thoroughly enjoy nursery and are constantly being engaged with and encouraged to develop all their senses. Their verbal and motor skills are constantly encouraged by all the staff within the nursery setting.
The
staff are pleasant and very helpful and always give you a lovely update at the end of each day.

My daughter has been attending Flutterbies for around 1.5years. I had a look around many nurseries, and this one gave me the right feeling mainly down to how they allow children to explore independently but there is also structure and routine in place.
There's a good mix of activities ranging from
traditional outdoor play to indoor creative play. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting - particularly her speech. She has bonded well with the lovely staff members and has made some great friends too. We luckily have no tears when we drop her, but some times the odd tear when she doesn't want to come home!
Meals are well balanced and the variety is absolutely excellent. My daughter was a late walker, but her key worker at the time encouraged her so much and now she doesn't stop!
It's a total peace of mind leaving my daughter all day long for 3 days a week knowing my daughter is learning, having fun and being cared for by the fantastic Flutterbies team. THANK YOU!

My daughter has recently started at Flutterbies and I have been extremely pleased with the care provided and how well they have gotten to know my child personally. Staff are always very welcoming in the mornings and provide outstanding activities for the children. It is just a relief knowing I can leave
them in capable hands knowing she is being truly cared for. The staff in her room have worked closely with me to ensure she has settled in as easily as possible. You can tell the staff truly care for the children and show this every day. The nursery manager is also lovely and will always make time out of her day to greet us in the mornings or catch up in the evenings.

My son began in January this year and from the very first moment we stepped into the nursery we were very impressed. The staff were friendly, reassuring, positive and professional. They made my leaving my son so much easier. Even though he struggled to settle at first, the staff were patient, helpful
and very understanding. My son now skips into nursery and has become so confident and is developing and thriving accordingly. I believe this is due to the outstanding care and dedication of all staff at the setting. Thank you very much from a very happy mum.

Reply from Angela Brady, Nursery Manager at Flutterbies Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you so much for your wonderful review.
We're so pleased to hear that your son is thoroughly enjoying his time with us here at Flutterbies, and of course that you are happy with the care and service we provide.
We'll make sure to share your lovely comments with the staff team.
All the best.

My daughter absolutely loves coming here! She has been for nearly a year now and gets excited every time she knows she is going to Flutterbies.
The staff are all so friendly. Very informative on what my daughter has been up to that day, eaten, etc. and kept up to date on events via email which is brilliant.
My daughter has a huge soft spot for one member of staff who is incredible with her as all the ladies at Flutterbies are. Her progress and confidence has boomed since coming here too. All in all, I am extremely pleased with the way the staff here care for my daughter and she is one very happy little girl.

My daughter has been attending Flutterbies for a year and half now and I could not be more pleased with them. It took her a while to settle but the staff were so wonderful and helped my daughter and myself feel comfortable. All the staff are amazing and so helpful. The manager is extremely good when
it comes to keeping parents updated and answering and assisting with any queries or requests.

My granddaughter has recently started going to Flutterbies nursery. She is only 2 years old and she absolutely loves it there. I find all the staff very friendly and happy and they have settled my granddaughter in very well. She is coming out with a lot more words which I know she has got from nursery.
She loves playing there.

After visiting several nurseries, Flutterbies immediately gave me that "feeling" when you just know a place is right for you.
A perfect mix of professional and friendly staff. My little girl has settled in wonderfully which made returning to work that little less daunting.

I cannot praise the staff of Flutterbies Day Nursery & Pre-school. I have had a wonderful experience with this nursery. The teachers all have a genuine warm loving welcome. I felt at ease with 100% peace of mind when leaving my son in their care. The facility is very well organised and adapt to the
needs of the children. The staff have worked very closely with our family to ensure the best development for our son. I cannot thank them enough for the attention to detail and extra special time they have spent ensuring our needs were met. Flutterbies, you are wonderful your staff are a credit to you, we are very sad to be leaving you. Thank you. xxx

Flutterbies has been absolutely outstanding with my son from day one. He settled well, feels totally at ease with the staff and setting and has made amazing progress over the year. I would definitely recommend Flutterbies to anyone looking for a caring, nurturing experience for their child.

Staff are lovely. The setting is adequate for purpose. It is clean.
When my son first started his view of nursery had been stressful (from a previous setting) he had been at a previous nursery for a year and hadn't settled and cried non-stop. Within a couple of weeks at Flutterbies Day Nursery he had
settled, was happy and staff got to know him even though he was only there one day a week. He now attends 15 hours a week and he loves it and we are more than happy!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.862)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.862) out of 10 for Flutterbies Day Nursery & Pre-school 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 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 Flutterbies Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (120 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 120 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 4.862 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Flutterbies Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 10 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 58 number of registered child places is 11.6. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.6 = 0.862

  • 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.
