Rhymes came recommended to us and I can now happily recommend it to others. The nursery went beyond our expectations. Our daughter looks forward to going to Rhymes every day and has thoroughly enjoyed herself this year. All the staff have been brilliant and caring as well. Keep up the good work. Thank
you.

I am happy with the teaching and support my daughter has received. Staff are very caring and supportive. I could always rely on the nursery to support with after school sessions, which I am extremely grateful for. My daughter has grown in confidence, she will initiate conversations and play with other
children. This was made possible through the help and support from staff. My daughter enjoys going to pre-school. I would definitely recommend the nursery to others.

Rhymes Nursery have really helped my son develop and he is always happy to go in. On his days off he often asks if he can go to nursery! The management are really supportive and offers flexibility which has been so helpful for me. I would recommend the nursery to family and friends.

I have used Rhymes for all three of my children over the last 8 years and throughout that time the care and support my children received has been outstanding. The manager is really helpful, the staff are all really friendly and brilliant with the children. My youngest two really love one staff member,
in particular, who always has a smile when she opens the door.
It's been a pleasure and we're sad to be moving on, but would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nursery in the Dudley area.

My daughter started at this nursery a year and a half ago. This is a nursery which offers an hourly rate, which worked perfectly for me. I must say my daughter loves it at nursery and feels at home and so comfortable with the teachers there. They are amazing, so supportive and just generally down to
earth. You can always talk to them anytime. Nothing is ever an issue. Management is brilliant and really goes out of their way to make sure all is ok. I feel 100% safe leaving my daughter at this nursery. She has learnt so much and developing beautifully as she's growing up, and credit goes to the girls at Rhymes Nursery. Well done.

Rhymes Nursery is the first nursery my daughter started at when she was six months old. I was very apprehensive to leave her, but wow, are the staff fantastic. Our daughter was in Incy's and she thoroughly enjoyed it. She has grown so much and developed so many skills. Whenever we pick her up, the staff
are cuddling or playing with her. The staff to children ratio is excellent, she's always doing fun activities and has learnt so much. I love this nursery!

My daughter has attended the nursery for over a year now, she started as a baby now she's 2. She's always happy to go and happy at the end of the day when I pick her up.
The staff are friendly and always have time for any questions you may have and always let you know how your child's been that day.

My little girl has been at Rhymes Nursery since she was 12 months old and has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are very supportive and nothing is too much trouble for them. The flexible hours offered are one of the reasons why this nursery is great for working parents as it works around you making
it less stressful to find hours that fit in with work commitments. My little girl is off to big school this year and I have no worries that she will settle in brilliantly thanks to the confidence Rhymes Nursery has helped her build.

First of all their manager is out of this entire world, she is very very supportive. To be honest, I text her every day to tell her to swap this day with that day and timings, she is so flexible. She helped me to keep my job, she supported me like a family member, bless her. My child loves nursery,
staff are very professional. I am so happy that my daughter got a place there, such a wonderful nursery and nice, professional staff.

My daughter has been attending from September 2020. The staff are very caring, friendly, patient and fun. They offer the best support and really put us at ease. My little girl runs every morning and the staff wait for her with the children with a big smile. I am very happy with how my daughter has developed
since she attended Rhymes Nursery and I have really appreciated how much effort they make with her even though she's been there for just a short time. My daughter is very settled here, she loves all the staff in Rhymes Nursery. I would strongly recommend this nursery.

Rhymes nursery is fantastic, we have used it for 6 years now for our children. It's very welcoming, staff are brilliant and the children learn so much. Prices are very reasonable and management have always been flexible and accommodating. Rhymes remained open throughout the pandemic, implementing safety
measures in order to offer childcare to families who desperately need it. Our daughters have gone through nursery feeling safe and secure and they have formed very strong friendships along the way. We highly recommend Rhymes nursery, our children have loved going there and we know they are safe and well cared for.

My son has come on leaps and bounds since coming to Rhymes. He loves it and asks throughout the week when it's time to go back. His potty training is really coming on and the staff have been great helping him along. The updates on Tapestry and his reports are always very detailed and it's clear how
well the staff know him. We pay for him to have his meals which are always varied and healthy, really good value for the money. Each time we collect him he has always been taking part in lots of different activities which he often then asks to do at home too, so it's clear how much he enjoys his day there. 10\10.

Very supportive, good communication, friendly staffs and considerate. My son enjoys going to nursery and his vocabulary has expanded. Going beyond expectation especially during the pandemic. They helped us look after my toddler while we were at the hospital for childbirth having no support around during
lockdown. A special thanks to the Manager and the team. Highly recommended.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.912)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.912) out of 10 for Rhymes Nursery Dudley 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.912 for Rhymes Nursery Dudley is calculated as follows: ( (264 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 284 Ratings = 4.912

  • 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 Rhymes Nursery Dudley is based on 24 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 24 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.
