Excellent nursery with fantastic staff.
We are very happy with how our son has come along since starting in September. He looks forward to seeing all the other children and is always telling us what he does.

My daughter attended Blue Giraffe for holiday club during the Summer holidays. The staff are exceptional at this place, they really do keep the children very engaged and most of all they have fun which is what I send my daughter for!
She will definitely be returning each holiday when needed. Thanks
to all the staff.

My little one has attended this nursery for a year before going to school. The staff and facilities were excellent, and we can't thank the staff enough all so friendly and my little one loved going.
My little one especially loved Flopsy the rabbit.

Really happy with everything at the nursery.
Communication is really good, staff are all friendly and helpful and my daughter is enjoying her time there for the last 12-months, and we think that her time spent there is really helping her development.

My children have been attending Blue Giraffe for years, my 4-year-old and now a 5-month-old. As a family we find the staff friendly and welcoming and extremely helpful, nothing is too much trouble at all! Seeing the progression over the years the new refurbishments inside and out are amazing definitely
purpose-built with the children in mind! Both my kids love it there and have beautiful relationships with their key workers ... keep up the fantastic work!

My daughter has been attending the nursery now for over 2 years. She's in the big room now and loves it. All she talks about is nursery at home and wanting to play with her friends and the staff. She's come on loads since starting here and she starts school this September.

Reply from RK, Owner at Blue Giraffe Childcare (Droitwich)

Thanks so much, Danni for writing the great review. I'll make sure the team know and will pass on your kind words. We are so happy that your daughter is enjoying the nursery and
"the big room"!

My daughter has been attending Blue Giraffe for nearly a year, the nursery is amazing and my daughter is always so happy to attend. She has learnt so much in her time at Blue Giraffe, they really do treat every child as an individual and get to know them really well, and us! Which is always nice!

We have joined the nursery at a very difficult time during the pandemic, so sending our then 1 and 2-year-olds somewhere we've never physically seen was rather bizarre and unnerving. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. As one of the staff said the other day 'it's like your family has been
with us for years'. That's how we are treated and how we feel. The children LOVE going and that's the biggest goal for us. My husband and I love how dirty they are when they come home and couldn't be happier with the amount of time spent outside, in all weathers. We've only been there since June, but so far, so very good!

Really lovely nursery, kind and skilled staff. Lots of fun activities and a nice environment. They really care about the children and treat them as individuals. I would recommend this nursery to anyone, my son was 10 months when he started and they were great.

Fantastic nursery, my daughter loves it here. The girls are so lovely and caring. The preschool is fantastic, so much for the kids to do, the outdoor area is a child’s dream play area. My daughter always comes out with a smile on her face. I wished I had found this nursery a few years ago as I would
have sent my son too. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery in Droitwich.

Both my children have attended Blue Giraffe for over 3 years, my son in after school and holiday clubs and my daughter started in baby room, moved onto tweenie room and is now in pre-school.
The manager and her team are so caring and professional and I know without a doubt my children are always safe
and well looked after. My daughter refers to Blue Giraffe as "friends house" and frequently references the staff there as her friends as well as other preschoolers.
My Son attends in after school setting and through some difficult behaviour moments both at home and at after school they have been on hand with advice and support without ever passing judgement.
Both my children love Blue Giraffe which is such a relief for me as I know they well cared for, content and happy. During lockdown, they provided brilliant support with homeschooling for my pre-schooler. (she is now back attending and she is so pleased to be back)
They offer brilliant, 2nd to none care and always go extra mile.

Reply from BG Team, Owner at Blue Giraffe Childcare (Droitwich)

Hi Claire,
Thank you so much for your great feedback. Happy we could help during the lockdown as well.

Excellent nursery with excellent staff! Hard to get my little one to leave at the end of the day! Wouldn’t go anywhere else... would recommend this nursery to any parent - makes leaving my child a lot easier knowing they are happy and being looked after by professional and knowledgeable staff.

Thanks, Pete. It's our pleasure, and the girls always look forward to caring for your little one!

My children attend Blue Giraffe nursery, and I couldn't be happier with the care provided by the staff here. The staff all go above and beyond, and take exceptional measures to ensure my children's development and their well-being are taken care of. I am kept up to date with daily feedback, and informed
of any changes that are being made. The nursery put on lots of extra events for parents to attend which I think is brilliant including stay and plays, and Christmas fairs. The nursery really is a beautiful and inspiring place for my children to learn in, and there is nowhere else I would consider for my children. Thank you to all the staff.

Reply from Lucy, Manager at Blue Giraffe Childcare (Droitwich)

Thank you, Mark - it's great seeing you at all the parent events.

Excellent Nursery. Amazing staff. When my child started nursery here she had what the doctors called a speech impediment (severely tongue and lip tied).
But with great help and patience she has done nothing more than improve every single day being there.
They have gone above and beyond for her every
need.
She loves all the staff and misses them when they or she is not there.
Big shout out to Blue Giraffe.
Amazing people doing an amazing job.

My little girl has multiple food allergies, the nursery have been fantastic with her, she's been going since she was 9 months, old she's now nearly 2 and a half, she is always happy to go in and never wants to leave because she is always happy doing something, there is plenty for her to do and even
change things so it's safe for my little girl, ie play dough made with free from flour anything that keeps her from being poorly they will go above and beyond to make sure she can play with the others and it's all safe for her.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.937)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.937) out of 10 for Blue Giraffe Childcare (Droitwich) 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.937 for Blue Giraffe Childcare (Droitwich) is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.937

  • 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 Blue Giraffe Childcare (Droitwich) is based on 12 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 57 number of registered child places is 11.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
