All three of my children have attended and one is still attending Little Wonders. The staff work hard to make sure the children are happy and content at the setting. The staff have helped to get my two oldest ready for school and they have definitely learnt lots in their time at Little Wonders whilst
having fun and making friends. I have always been happy with the service they are providing for my children and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Little wonders have been great. My child has enjoyed their time at nursery and always looked forward to going. The staff are very friendly and are kind and caring. I would recommend the nursery to others.

Staff are friendly and approachable. Our child enjoys her time at little wonders and appears settled and relaxed.
They keep us updated throughout the day on her progress and activities.
Early signs (our daughter has only just started at the nursery) are that our daughter will enjoy her time here.

A very homely and friendly nursery with caring and creative staff who make each day fun and educational for the children through a wide range of learning experiences. There are lots of creative activities, trips, and chances to cook, grow, play outside and share healthy meals together. My son enjoys
his time there and has developed in leaps and bounds since attending. The staff take feedback on board, seek suggestions, get involved in charity fundraising and provide a wonderful environment for the children. Highly recommended!

Little Wonders have supported my daughter since she started in 2021 at the age of 2. She was behind in her speech and they have supported her to bring her to the level she should be. As a looked-after child now adopted, they have supported (the only delay was speech). In recent weeks they have shown
care and compassion, and have been very understanding and nurturing as her daddy died unexpectedly and suddenly. They have been supported through books, stories and play.

They do everything that they promise. Great days had.
Two hundred characters are requested to describe Wonder’s brilliance, but just a few words are required.
Reliably excellent, with smiles that encourage assurance.

A fabulous nursery with a lovely homely feel. My daughter loves her days at nursery, although she sometimes is a little unsure about going, staff make her feel comfortable and I always leave reassured she will have a great day, which she always does. She’s developed so much since going and it’s great
to see how she’s grown due to the support of all the staff.

My daughter has been attending Little Wonders since she was around 7 months old. The staff are all excellent, they are so caring and kind. My daughter looks forward to going to nursery and she always has a good day and comes home with a smile on her face. They do a range of different activities including
arts and crafts and they regularly get to play outside. My daughter has made some amazing friends while attending Little Wonders. The staff are amazing and provide the children with a safe and friendly environment to help with learning as well as playing

I have had two children attend little wonders. My daughters have been at school for twelve months but still enjoy going back in the holidays. My son starts school this September and has been going since he was approx eight months.
The staff are all very approachable and go to great lengths to give
the children many learning opportunities and experiences. This has enabled my children to have a great start at school. All of the children appear very happy in the nursery and both of my children have made good friends and progressed on to school with.
There is a nice safe outdoor area for them to play and they have been able to grow their own vegetables outside.
They provide a great menu which provides the children with the opportunity to try so many different types of food.
I would highly recommend Little Wonders.

Our little girl is extremely happy at nursery and I've always been impressed with the caring attitude of the staff. These days education seems to have eroded into box-ticking exercises with dubious organisations like Ofsted that intend to hinder teachers' ability to teach. I am particularly impressed
with the way that Little Wonders manage to deal with this and yet still provide thoroughly enjoyable and educational days for our daughter.

Right from sending my child the nursery and staff have been wonderful. They dealt with my anxieties and make everyone feel welcome with their friendly atmosphere. My review is based on the care and understanding that the nursery provides especially through difficult times. My child has learned a lot
and is more than ready for school. The rooms have been modified and the children got to see the process. The outside is well utilised for its small size and they have started growing their own veg and herbs. My child feels comfortable and has made lasting memories and friends.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.581)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.581) out of 10 for Little Wonders Wirksworth 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.781 for Little Wonders Wirksworth is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.781

  • 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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Wonders Wirksworth is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 8 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.
