My daughter absolutely loves coming nursery every morning. I'm actually dreading when she leaves to go to school. All the staff are friendly, caring and understanding. The laughter and joy I hear from the rooms when walking in puts a smile on my face every day.

My little boy attends this nursery and he couldn't be happier. We recently moved to the area and worried about how he would settle in his nursery, however, he sprints in so excited every single day and comes out with the biggest smile.
I cannot recommend this nursery enough! They go big and beyond
to ensure you and your child are happy!

My son has been attending this nursery since January 2022 and myself and my partner are both unbelievably happy with how well he has settled! He loves being at nursery and has formed lovely bonds with his key worker and baby room leader! We love seeing what he's been getting up to on the parents app'
and seeing all the lovely activities he's been taking part in. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming and have made us feel very comfortable with taking our child to the nursery! The manager has been super helpful and is always there to greet us with a bright, happy smile in the mornings, which sets our day off to a great start. If you are thinking of taking your child to this nursery, then do not hesitate. We absolutely love it here!

I could not ask for a better nursery for my son. He has come on leaps and bounds since starting in January 2022 and was eased into his new nursery beautifully. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone, nothing is too much trouble. All staff go above and beyond and I’m so grateful to have found
them.

I love this nursery, and so does my son. He was struggling with separation, and he was made to feel right at home, and it didn't take long for him to feel comfortable. Lovely outside area and friendly staff. The manager is really nice and is always present when I'm picking him up, which is nice to see.
Thank you.

My son has been attending almost a year and he absolutely loves going. Most mornings he’s too excited to get in that he forgets my goodbyes. Make me so comfortable knowing he’s happy and well cared for. His development is amazing learning new things every day that surprise us all. Very highly recommended.

Our son has started nursery last April just before he turned 2 in June. He gets so excited every time ‘nursery day’ comes. He can’t wait to see his friends, the lovely staff and he just wants to play. He is happy when we pick him up which obviously makes us happy too. He sometimes pretends he is on
the phone to the manager at bedtime just to ask if the nursery is open yet. He has grown in confidence so much and his vocabulary is amazing. Happy child, happy parent! Thank you.

We are very happy with everything at the nursery and would certainly recommend it.
Due to Covid, we didn't get a chance to view many nurseries when making our choice, but we felt a connection with Paper Moon Day Nursery due to the size and familiarity of the place and the team. The staff here are
incredibly warm and the fact that many of them have been there for many years assured us that it was a place that looked after staff and the children.


We have been very happy to see our daughter's development since she started at the nursery. She has developed in every respect and the team have been great at supporting her to improve in certain areas whilst also focusing on her strengths. This is in no small part down to the team and their genuine desire to get to know each child at an individual level.


The main thing for us is the fact that our daughter can't wait to get into the nursery and jumps into the team's arms in the morning. We know she is well looked after, happy and has a good time every day.

I could not recommend Paper Moon Day Nursery enough. Lovely staff. They took really good care of my daughter. My wife and I are really happy sending our little one to Paper Moon Day Nursery, they are doing a very good job. They’ve managed to settle our daughter in just a few visits. They persevere until
she could finally eat and play independently. Thanks to all the staff involved!

All of the staff are very friendly, helpful and patient. They will update you from time to time. I cannot thank them enough for being so patient and understanding. My 15-month-old daughter was born during the pandemic, it was not easy for her to be with other people but the staff and manager did an
amazing job!

This isn’t a nursery! They are a family. They have done so much for my family and gone above and beyond. When my daughter had a stye in her eye and I couldn’t get out of work they put a cold compress on her eye every hour for ten minutes and sat with her! They didn’t have to do this or even have the
time. When my son was born and had to stay in hospital they took her last minute for extra days. T


They make custom and personalised cards every birthday! They potty trained her within 5 days! The staff are my personal therapists and never make you feel rushed and drop off collection times. I will be so sad when my children leave even to the point I would have another child so can stay for another 4 years!

I can’t recommend Paper Moon Day Nursery enough! My little boy loves going - he no longer bothers saying bye and just wanders in. He has developed so much in the time he has been there - the staff are wonderful and keep me up to date with everything that is going on. They will go above and beyond to
help me if I have an issue - he has been having issues with food and they have no problems writing down everything he eats and how it’s made!


I cannot recommend them enough!

My son has been going to Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston since he was thirteen months and he has been very happy, as have we. The staff are all brilliant from babies to preschool. He talks fondly about all the teachers and his friends and what he does at school. We've had a few bumps in the road but
nothing the staff have not resolved very quickly. The manager is excellent and always ensures we are happy and satisfied with any bumps.

I have had two children attend Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston. One has now left and the other is 3 in Pre School. I cannot rate the nursery highly enough. The kids love it and the staff, which to me is the most important thing. The manager sets a real tone from the top which clearly filters throughout
the nursery: building strong personable relationships with the children. I have absolute peace of mind when the children are there which allows me to concentrate on what is causing me to not be able to be with them. Wonderful place.

My daughter loves every minute of her time here. She goes in happy and comes out happy. There are lots of opportunities for the children to play and explore indoors and out. The outdoor space is fabulous and my daughter comes home filthy every day - just how it should be. Above all, I feel confident
when I leave her there that she is safe and happy and that I can go to work and not worry about her. The manager is super efficient and helpful. Great staff all around.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.925)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.925) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.925 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Gamston is calculated as follows: ( (210 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 226 Ratings = 4.925

  • 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 - Gamston is based on 19 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 19 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.
