Wellingborough Day Nursery offers a comfortable and spacious environment, where children are encouraged to develop a love for learning with the help of a qualified and dedicated team. The setting is located next to Croyland Park and just a short walk from the town centre and offers full time and part time childcare sessions. The nursery offers exceptional care, enriched by unique learning opportunities for your child. One such experience is child-friendly cooking classes, helping to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process.

Each room offers a diverse range of activities such as story time, cooking, painting and planting to keep each child's day exciting and unique. All rooms provide access to its own garden, and the nursery encourages outdoor play and learning all year round, regardless of the weather. The team is qualified and passionate about each child's education and well-being.

Babies start in a cosy room, where they are free to explore through a mix of child-led and structured learning activities. Toddlers are introduced to a range of learning experiences through sensory and imaginative play, with opportunity to experience ‘discover zones’, providing natural resources for children to engage with.

Pre-Schoolers have the freedom to learn and play according to their individual preferences, whether that is expressing their creativity through various arts and crafts, being active in the spacious garden or relaxing with books in the quiet reading corner. Throughout their later years in nursery, and with the support of the team, children are supported in their transition to school.

Wellingborough Day Nursery ensures that the needs of the children are a top priority and strives to provide the best possible care and education.

Our daughter has attended the nursery for 7 months and really enjoys her time here. She does lots of creative play bringing home artwork most weeks. She enjoys the freshly cooked meals and snacks. We feel she has come a long way in a short space of time. The staff are very friendly and we are glad
we chose this nursery.

My son has been in this Day nursery since September 2014. His social skills and vocal ability has come on leaps and bounds as when he began my son was limited on both areas but now is thriving. He has learnt colours and can count to 10 with no help and to 20 with assistance. His eating habits are getting
better too with the help of a sticker reward chart introduced by staff so now is trying new things. He has good relationship with all staff and so do we. They make every parent feel welcome and confident that our children are in a fun but safe learning environment. My son is always excited for his sessions. I recommend this nursery as I feel it works to the highest standard.

I have really enjoyed sending our little boy to Wellingborough Day Nursery. Since he joined the staff have helped him develop with his speech as well as self independence such as putting shoes on, going to the toilet. The staff are very welcoming in the morning which gives us such confidence leaving
our son there for the day. I cannot fault any of the services or staff. I would definitely recommend to anybody.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.425)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.425) out of 10 for Wellingborough Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.631 for Wellingborough Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.631

  • 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 4.794 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Wellingborough Day Nursery is based on 10 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 63 number of registered child places is 12.6. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.6 = 0.794

  • 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.
