Since starting at Yellow Brick Road I've seen my son's development accelerate in so many different ways. This is down to the fantastic staff and the nurturing and supportive environment. There is a holistic approach to the care with an emphasis on what we have been doing at home or over the weekend
that is then linked to activities at the nursery. This gives a sense of continuity and definitely helps with learning and as a result my son loves his time there. The communication from all staff is great, with updates via an app throughout the day and debriefing at the end at pickup. The passion and dedication of the team there is amazing and I wish I had started with them sooner. Couldn't recommend it enough.

Thank you for your review. I'm so happy you like how we plan activities for the children, it does help so much when parents post on the app which then enables us to enhance at nursery.

A really lovely, nurturing nursery. From my experience, the staff take time to build a bond with the children so they feel comfortable and happy attending nursery and are given opportunities to learn and develop.

Our son has been at Yellow Brick Road for 18 months and has loved his time there, he really enjoyed and developed in the baby room with his key worker. He's now moved up to the toddler room with a different key worker and has really developed an affinity with him. He enjoys going to Yellow Brick Road
and is starting to come out of his shell with his peers, often talking about his friends and experiences at nursery.

Amazing nursery. Such lovely staff who really do go above and beyond for the children in their care. It is a really beautiful setting and my two children adore coming here. I love how the staff create tailor-made activities based on the children's interests and what they have been up to outside of the
nursery.

Reply from Michelle Delicata, Proprietor at Yellow Brick Road Daycare, Metheringham

Thank you, a lovely review and I'm really happy you like how we follow on from your weekend activities. The team extremely hard to tailor activities for each child, but it really does work in helping the children to enjoy their experiences at Yellow Brick Road so much more. Many thanks.

My child has been attending for about 2 years now. He's just over 3 years old. He goes part-time and I can say without a doubt sending him has been the best decision we ever made.
The staff are excellent with him and he has such a good relationship with them. His motor skills and social skills have
come on so well. I don't think they would have if he had not attended.

Yellow Brick Road Daycare is the best childcare setting my children have ever been to. The staff have excellent communication and are always responsive, professional and caring to any given situation. They understand the needs of Service families and have an excellent representation and reputation -
it feels like a family, not a business. Highly recommend this amazing setting.

Reply from Michelle Delicata, Proprietor at Yellow Brick Road Daycare, Metheringham

Thank you so much for sending in your review. We do always strive to improve the setting as much as we can to ensure the children, parents and team get the best outcomes. Many thanks.

My son started at Yellow Brick Road Daycare in November 2023 he was 10 months old when he first started. Since the beginning I have always had such a positive experience with all the staff, they are all so positive and understanding. My son looks forward to going to nursery every week and always comes
home so happy. They have a variety of different foods each week for the children to enjoy as well as different puddings for them to have.
I am always kept up to date with new things that happen or are happening. I honestly would recommend this nursery 110%.

Yellow Brick Road provide amazing, family-centred childcare. The staff are absolutely wonderful, taking care of everything they do. They delight in coming up with interesting and inventive activities that link to what we've been doing over the weekend, creating learning opportunities and fun, day in,
and day out. They know my little one so well, all her likes and dislikes, moods and habits, and still remember her older brother well too. Even staff that work within a different room are familiar and friendly with my child.
The menu is incredible, providing a wide range of healthy, home-cooked meals that help to establish great eating habits.
I cannot recommend this setting enough for the love and attention they pay to my child. I know she is in safe hands, that she's learning lots and having fun, and that if she needs a cuddle, there will always be one there for her.

THE most amazing nursery with the most amazing and genuinely caring staff. Our son (aged 1) is absolutely thriving here. He has developed so much in the short space of time he has been attending. The range of activities he does on a daily basis is amazing, and we love reading his journal to see what
he has been up to each day. The staff are so wonderful and it is so clear they absolutely love their jobs and the children. Our son is obsessed with his key person/s, they take such good care of him which makes leaving him everyday so much easier. I wouldn't take our son anywhere else! There is a reason there is such a long waiting list for this nursery!

I currently have two children who attend Yellow Brick Road and I couldn't recommend them more. They are so creative in their play ideas and take such good care of the little ones. All the staff are always happy and smiley, and take their time talking to you at drop off and collection. Making sure the
little ones are happy is their main priority, and I can't thank them enough for the time they've taken to settle my two into nursery.

Reply from Michelle Delicata, Proprietor at Yellow Brick Road Daycare, Metheringham

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.927)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.927) out of 10 for Yellow Brick Road Daycare, Metheringham 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.927 for Yellow Brick Road Daycare, Metheringham is calculated as follows: ( (356 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 383 Ratings = 4.927

  • 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 Yellow Brick Road Daycare, Metheringham is based on 32 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 129 number of registered child places is 25.8, which has been reached with 32 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.
