By far the choice I made moving my son to this nursery, his progression since moving here is absolutely amazing. Staff are always polite and friendly and how they give you feedback after every day at nursery helps so much with working together to help the kids progress further and better. My son loves
going to Little Leprechauns Day Nursery he's such a happy little boy there, I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone they are brilliant!

First time my son has ever been away from me and Little Leprechauns have made it so easy! He's always in a fantastic mood, all his needs are met and more. I couldn't ask for a better nursery!

Little Leprechauns is a fantastic nursery providing all the assistance and support my son requires as he's partially deaf. They have a really good range of facilities both inside and out. The staff are really friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Overall a very well run nursery :)

After having a bad experience at a previous nursery, we'd kind of lost all faith when it came to nurseries. After hearing such good things about Little Leprechauns I gave them a call and explained our situation, and within 24 hours they'd made a place available for my son. Since day 1 we loved it. They
have very low staff turnover which is always a good sign and its clear why. All staff are friendly and welcoming and are all obviously passionate about their jobs and the children they care for. The nursery became a home away from home for him. We were very sad to say goodbye to them in January and will miss all staff greatly! Would highly recommend them to anyone a bit dubious about nurseries (like we were) as they will soon diminish all your worries. Its been a pleasure to be apart of Little Leprechauns!

Great nursery. Always really helpful and caring. My daughter always has a wonderful time. Lots of fun activities which are education but link to her interests - getting my daughter prepared for big school. Really happy with the menu, activities, outings, and trust the staff completely. All qualified
and 1st aid trained. Great Would highly recommend and do so to my friends.

My daughter attends Little Leprechauns two days a week, we both love the staff here. My daughter gets excited to go to nursery, and we're very happy with how she is looked after and the meals she receives here. I would definitely recommend this nursery to family and friends.

This is the second nursery my daughter has attended and is definitely the best. I have much better communication from staff and there appears to be lots of variety with activities. The staff are great with my daughter and it is highly recommended.

Little Leprechauns is the only nursery I would want my child to go to. The facilities are immaculately clean, meals are home cooked on site and there is a well balanced varied menu. Care sheets (baby room) are issued at every attendance giving full detail of my child's time at nursery. Staff are always
friendly and can't do enough for you. Genuinely care about the children and it shows. Management are very organised regarding invoices, news letters, forms etc and always there to talk to. I recommend this nursery to everyone I know. Thank you.

My daughter started nursery, just as she turned one year old and goes twice a week. The staff have been absolutely fantastic at helping her to settle, and also helping us as parents through this process. She seems really happy and the staff are working with us as parents to bring on the skills which
she is currently trying to master - walking and talking. The nursery has been also really good with us at working with my daughters routine and we get a good 'handover' so to speak, as to her day and how she has been. I can really recommend this nursery so far.

Absolutely fantastic nursery. The staff are very warm and caring and its obvious they love being with them. Everyone is extremely helpful and they go above and beyond. The baby room has a home from home feel. My granddaughter loves to go in the mornings where she greets the staff with a beaming smile.
We are always provided with great feedback on all the fun and exciting things she and the other little ones have been up to. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a place for the child/grandchild.

A really lovely nursery with professional and loving staff. It took me a long time to accept that I had to go back to work and leave my child, but Little Leprechauns stood out by far to all the other nurseries in the area. I love that the staff educate, protect and love my child, just as part of their
family. I also was keen to ensure the staff were all trained in first aid and every member of staff is, so reassuring. I cannot recommend Little leprechauns enough!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.964)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.964) out of 10 for Little Leprechauns Day Nursery 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.964 for Little Leprechauns Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (325 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.964

  • 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 Little Leprechauns Day Nursery is based on 28 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 28 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.
