Langley Mill Childcare provides a fun and stimulating approach to early years care and education.

Within a safe, friendly and fun environment, with both indoor and outdoor play areas, children are supported by qualified and experienced staff to learn through play to develop a wide range of skills and interests. Guided by the Early Years Foundation Stage, each key person plans activities to support each child to achieve their next steps, taking their interests and characteristics of learning into account.   

There is a strong focus on healthy eating at the setting with fresh food cooked on the premises. Several fun days and events are held through the year, giving parents the opportunity to get involved if they wish.

The nursery was rated Good by Ofsted in August 2017 and is managed by the Early Years Alliance, a registered charity.

They have up to 30 hours funded childcare places available for qualifying 2, 3 and 4 year olds.

Absolutely fantastic nursery with a really amazing staff. My little girl adores her time there and I leave with no worries or concerns. All staff respect what I ask and follow her routine perfectly. Staff are very helpful with difficult changes my daughter has had to face but they offer the same support
as she gets at home. You can see how much the staff care and all the children look happy and cared for. I love they get outdoor and indoor play. And constantly changing activities and themes. Outstanding nursery.

Reply from Susan Burnham, Manager at Langley Mill Childcare

Thank you for your fantastic review, we are happy that you are so pleased with the nursery and that we have been able to support you both. Your daughter makes us smile every day she attends, we love caring for her and seeing her grow and develop.

My child has loved going to this nursery and has come on since being there. The staff are also lovely. However, some of the decision-making from senior management is not done with parents and children in mind.

Reply from Susan Burnham, Manager at Langley Mill Childcare

Thank you for your review; we have enjoyed seeing the progress your child has made during his time with us and wish him well on the next stage of his learning journey.

My son started at Langley Mill Childcare in April 2023 at 12 months old. He is now just about to go up into the toddler room and the difference we have seen in him since starting is amazing. As first-time parents, we were apprehensive about leaving him with 'strangers' especially as he had quite an
attachment to me. We absolutely made the right choice with this nursery and he settled in within a very short space of time. His social skills have grown enormously and we are taken aback on almost a daily basis with his new learnings. He was counting to twenty by the age of 19 months and that is purely down to his teachers. The main thing for us is that he is happy and he shows this by easy drop-offs each morning and by telling us all about his day on pick-up. The staff are great and my son has a lovely relationship with each of them. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone and if we ever have another child, there is no question that this would be our nursery of choice.

Reply from Susan Burnham, Manager at Langley Mill Childcare

Thank you so much for your lovely comments, one of the best things about working in childcare is seeing the children gain independence and develop their skills as your child demonstrates, we love looking after him.

I can't fault them at all my child has come on leaps and bounds in his time at Langley Mill. The team are amazing and I'm going to miss them all greatly. My child loved every day he went and never complained about going or never left upset he had a bad day. I would happily return with future children.

Reply from Susan Burnham, Manager at Langley Mill Childcare

Thank you, we will miss your child so much, I am really pleased he loved his time with us and has become so confident and ready for "big school".

My twins have been going to this nursery for the last six months and have settled in really well, have even had to potty train while going as well and they’ve handled them both so well! Lovely staff, always happy to see the twins (not sure why! Ha ha!)
I was able to spread my free hours and also pay
for nursery all year round which has really helped me as well, would definitely recommend it.

I have had three children at the SureStart nursery over the years, 1 is currently there. This is the only nursery I would ever choose. The staff are all amazing and an incredible team/family. They have worked well with me and kept brilliant communication and have been understanding and adaptable to
circumstances and situations that have come up, giving helpful advice and support with me and especially my children through their time and education there. I have personally recommended this nursery to many.

My little boy's nursery had to close down and we were really worried about having to get him to settle at a new nursery. We didn't have to worry though as he settled straight away with Langley Mill Childcare.
The staff are always welcoming and they do different activities each day with the children,
as well as having plenty of outside time. I have never had any tears from my little boy going to nursery and he always runs in with a smile. The nursery also offers a more flexible day, than some nurseries which worked better for our working arrangements. Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend them.

My little boy started attending Langley Mill Childcare just before his second birthday, and he has just turned 4. In the time he has been there, he has learnt so many new skills, as well as a huge development in his speech. The staff go above and beyond to make each day educated and fun. He will often
sing new nursery rhymes and show me little dance moves he's learnt. My son loves arts and crafts and is always bringing new paintings and drawings home. He has developed a loving friendship with the staff and other children. I myself am very appreciative of what all the staff and management do day to day to provide this care for my son whilst I work.

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough. My child has been registered with them for three years now and loves attending. The staff are warm and so friendly and very accommodating when I've had to add on days. My child loves to tell me all the wonderful activities they've done that day and the app means
I can keep up to date.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.423)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.423) out of 10 for Langley Mill Childcare is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.778 for Langley Mill Childcare is calculated as follows: ( (28 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.778

  • 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 3.645 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Langley Mill Childcare is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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 38 number of registered child places is 7.6. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.6 = 0.395

  • 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.
