Lovely place for my daughter to learn and explore. Think it's brilliant they are doing the bear walks in the woods. Staff are brilliant and easy to talk to with any issues. Would recommend to friends and family.

I find the staff to be friendly and the nursery sufficient for my daughters needs until she starts school in September. The nursery is in a great location and the rooms are a good size considering the space they have. There's lots of activities and learning for the children to do as well as a spacious
garden to play in.

Paper Moon Day Nursery is a very friendly, safe and welcoming environment. Staff recognise that the children have different needs and learning styles and encourage personal expression in a safe learning environment. Staff continuously ensuring that children reach learning and development targets and
adapt their approach as required in recognition of children's different needs. The staff are an asset to the nursery.
The nursery has 3 separate rooms tailored to the needs of each age group. The nursery also has a great outdoor space to allow for the different learning settings. The outdoor space encourages learning with purposefully designed spaces.
Learning opportunities extend beyond the nursery walls. The children are often taken on walks to learn about nature, amongst other things all encouraging personal development.
Food is prepared daily on site using fresh products. The variety of food offered on a weekly basis is excellent.
I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

I am really pleased that I picked Paper Moon Nursery for my son, he really enjoys it there and there are always a lot of different activities for him to do. The teachers are always so friendly and helpful and they have also taught my son a lot of new things (putting on his own coat, hat on etc).


I

would highly recommend Paper Moon Day Nursery. My son is also now eating a wide range of food he would never eat at home due to the good variety of food.

All the ladies are amazing. Both my sons have settled well. My eldest has been in since he was seven months old and has thrived and developed beyond his years in speech and physical ability. My youngest has just started full time and settled well and enjoys all the activities. As a full time working
parents, this gives us great comfort to know that while we are away from our children they are being cared for, educated and nurtured.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys nursery. She enjoys all the sensory activities they do and playing with the other children.
I love coming home and reading her book to see what she has been up to during the day.

The staff at Paper Moon are excellent. I know my child is going to be well looked after and the environment is very enriching to his development and education.
I am always informed about what he has been up to and I even got a Valentine's letter in the post from him which the nursery made.
The amount
of effort that goes into everything, is first class.

All the staff here make my little boy feel welcome and they all do a great job in looking after the children. I love sending my son to Paper Moon and I think he enjoys going too. I love the fact that he comes home with a diary so that I can see how he's progressing and everything that he's done in the
day, it's a great idea.

My son has settled so well into Paper Moon Nursery. He loves it there. The staff are fantastic with him, and with me, always keeping me up to date and reassuring me and my little boy.
It's great to know that he is being looked after and cared for so well.

What better review is there than my 2-year-old saying "yes" and reeling off the names of his favourite staff when I ask him every morning if he wants to go to nursery. Upon arrival, he runs to the door and heads straight to the breakfast table, excited for the day ahead. When I collect him at the end
of the day, he wants to stay and help with the cleaning so I am in no doubt that he's happy, stimulated, well fed and well looked after at Paper Moon.

Absolutely love all the staff at the preschool. My son is so happy here, always coming home showing us things he's made or things he's learned. New songs, the colour of mars, even his left and right! That's only a few of the amazing things he's learned here. Staff encourage my child to be imaginative
with his stories and dressing up. The connection he has with the staff is incredible. Dropping my son off is so easy to do because I know he's safe and very loved there.

My daughter has settled into this nursery very well with the help of the fantastic staff and management, she has very strong bonds with staff and the cleaner. Attending full-time, she is always doing stimulating and exciting activities and comes home very tired at the end of the day. The food she eats
at nursery is very well nutritionally balanced and she eats lots! The range of activities she does is excellent, as a parent, I look forward to the stay and play sessions as they get very messy! My daughter can do 'please' and 'thank you' in sign language which she has learnt to do here. It's great!

After visiting the nursery a couple of times for organised events put together for the children, I saw that it was a well structured and organised place for my child to enjoy herself.
They do lots of singing and arts and crafts which is brilliant.
You can see how much the interaction between all
the children benefits them and builds their confidence. The staff are not scared to let the children get dirty and have fun.
I feel completely safe leaving my child in their hands and I know she will have a great day and sleep well at the end of it.

The staff are very friendly in the nursery which provides me with comfort and take great care in looking after my child and making sure they are happy and content.
My child has come on lots since she has started nursery, learning different words and parts of songs which she loves to do at home too!
They have a good selection of meals for the children and are happy to cater to your child's needs if any.

I really feel my daughter has a home form home when she goes to nursery. She is a full timer little one so its a long day for her but she loves being there which makes it slightly easier for me when I need to go to work.I know she eats well, plays inside and out with lots of stimulation to help her
learn and have fun, which as we know is really all we want our little ones to do. All the children play together at different points so they learn from each other but always supervised. Great staff who all bring their own experiences and knowledge to the nursery, lots of ages also which help too. I am really happy to say that this is a great nursery and recommend for any family for all ages. Not too big so it feels like home.

What a fantastic place. I only wish that I could stay and play too. Such friendly, caring staff. They are always accommodating if we need to find childcare for an extra day, or swap some days around (yes, we have been pests like that on more than one occasion!) Even the cleaning staff are wonderful
and will often be playing with the children when we go to pick them up. Could not recommend them more.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.955)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.955) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Doddington Park 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 4.955 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Doddington Park is calculated as follows: ( (322 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 336 Ratings = 4.955

  • 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 Paper Moon Day Nursery - Doddington Park 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, 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.
