My child started in January 2021 and has come a long way since then. The activities that are done with the children are creative and help my child learn so much. The staff are always helping to develop my child’s skills which get updated in the app to view whilst my child is at nursery. I highly recommend
this nursery and my child loves it too!

My daughter started at this nursery and she absolutely loves it, she’s settled in so well as all the teachers are so lovely and welcoming. I love seeing all the pictures of my daughter's activities and hearing what the teachers have to say about her when she leaves!

My daughter was very nervous and not used to many people due to lock down and doesn't take to people very quickly. The first couple of months were hard for her as she would say 'you leave me too long mummy' as she wasn't used to being left without me. This was a bit heartbreaking at first for both me
and her dad but the staff were so great and spent so much time with her and listened to everything she said and gave her so many cuddles, this made her feel important and safe. The staff asked about the things she liked so they could enjoy them with her. Also, they asked one of the other girls if they would like to hold her hand as she was new, that was something so nice that me and her still talk about it now as she says 'I have a friend mummy'. She wouldn't eat much at first due to her being fussy but as time's gone on she is enjoying so much more food. The staff are brilliant and have helped her so much, and have encouraged her with toilet training too. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since attending Child’s 1st Day Nursery! She loves going. If you are slow getting out the door to take her she gets mad at me. Couldn’t be a better place for her to learn and grow.

My daughter has been at this nursery for eight months, the girls in the nursery have really helped to bring her out of her shell and teach her new things, I have seen a difference in my daughter since she started nursery and I'm so thankful to all the staff for being so friendly and helpful when it
comes to my daughter.

Not enough superlatives to describe how much we love using this nursery. They have a number of chickens of which lay eggs for people to have free of charge. The staff are all excellent, with my son coming home learning new words after every visit.
An app can be downloaded where everything is recorded
so you know exactly what your child is doing at almost any given point. Photos can also be accessed throughout the day.
Just a great service - five-star.

The nursery is amazing full stop, our daughter has been pretty much a lockdown baby but this is the one place she literally gets excited about going to each week, the staff are amazing, friendly and informative and our daughter light's up when she sees them. You're informed on everything the kids do
from start to finish and they are amazing in helping your child develop in every area, would recommend them every day of the week and twice on Sunday, amazing place.

Wonderful little nursery, all my children have gone here over the years and I wouldn’t choose anywhere else. All the staff are so lovely and friendly and have always been so good with my kids even if they have cried when I drop them off, they soon find a way to settle them and they never want to come
home. So much choice in each room for all ages and often do lovely little outings, it’s just so good to have peace of mind when leaving your babies.

My son loves to go to nursery and the staff are all very welcome and help him. As a first-time parent, you are concerned if he will be okay but I have to admit that they take very good care of him and I never worry about him because he is safe and they help him to settle down.
My son is very happy
and he likes to play with his friends.

My grandson absolutely loves going to nursery! At first, he was a little unsettled but the staff soon built good relationships with him and really helped him settle!
The regular updates via the app really help put your mind at rest and it’s lovely to see the activities the girls offer daily.
I wouldn’t
hesitate to recommend this nursery!

My son was born premature and had a few health complications following this so we were so anxious about him going to nursery, however, Child 1st Nursery really helped to calm those nerves and have done everything possible to help my son to progress! They've built up such an amazing relationship with
him and he thoroughly loves going to nursery, cannot recommend them enough! He's worked with key workers very closely and they are just brilliant with him, he smiles at them every morning!

My son has grown so much since he started attending the nursery. He was very shy and didn't have many social skills but now thanks to the nursery he is a very active and cheerful little one. Best decision to send him to this nursery. I'm glad I did that.

Lovely nursery, I was very anxious about taking my 9-month son after maternity leave but the staff put my mind at ease through their regular updates using the app. I am able to see what my son has eaten, how much milk he's had and nap times, nappy changes etc. Would highly recommend!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.954)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.954) out of 10 for Child 1st (Stoke) 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.954 for Child 1st (Stoke) is calculated as follows: ( (309 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.954

  • 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 Child 1st (Stoke) is based on 27 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 112 number of registered child places is 22.4, which has been reached with 27 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.
