My son started in the baby room and has moved up to the toddler room, he settled in really quickly and loves going to nursery. He gets to do lots of fun activities there and always seems so happy when I pick him up.
The staff at Paper Moon are all lovely and because it's a small nursery it feels like
they get to know all of the children and genuinely care. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery!

My daughter gets excited when I wake her and say she is going to nursery, she is positively giddy when we get there. Paper Moon Day Nursery - Lenton has been a dream nursery for our family. From our very first conversation with the manager, the staff have consistently been courteous, and professional,
a delight to interact with. When there are matters like an illness reported going around, they patiently and thoroughly answer any and all of my questions. Their professionalism in all respects, and the heartfelt care they show my daughter and the other children, give me full confidence and peace of mind each time I drop her off. When we are at home, it is incredible to see the new things she has learned. Her emotional vocabulary and spoken vocabulary are developing at an amazing pace, she often surprises us with something new after a day at nursery. Finally, Paper Moon has fostered her sense of confidence and exploration. It's wonderful to see her develop as a whole person and Paper Moon is a huge part of that.

My daughter was in the toddler's group and has now moved to the preschooler's group. She's received so much support that she looks forward to going to the nursery daily. Her developmental stages had been clearly noted with milestones celebrated along her journey.
At the end of her day, while having
her reflection, she always has a fun thing to say about her time at the nursery. The teachers are very receptive and happy to help. I recommend the nursery to others as a place to attend and FYI this is my second daughter attending Paper Moon Nursery Lenton.

Our boy has been at Paper Moon Nursery for 1.5 years and we couldn't be happier. The staff are all super friendly, and I really feel that they care for the kids and help them develop their little personalities. PMN is great at teaching our child important routines like washing hands, putting toys away,
and potty training. We are very grateful for everything the staff at PMN do for our son. Thank you for all your hard work and care!

Our little one has been attending this nursery since he was 6 months old, and he absolutely loves it. The staff are fantastic. Always friendly, supportive, and great with the kids. We're particularly impressed by how they track each child's development and keep us updated with regular photos of the
activities they're doing. There's a great range of fun and educational activities that keep the children engaged. The food is always healthy and there's plenty of it, which is great. The outdoor space seems a bit small but it's still more than enough for the kids to enjoy. We also love that it's a smaller, more intimate nursery where there's a real sense of community amongst staff, other parents, and children. Overall, we're incredibly happy with the care provided and feel completely at ease leaving our little one in such capable hands.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Lenton 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 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 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 4.859 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Lenton is calculated as follows: ( (390 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 448 Ratings = 4.859

  • 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 - Lenton is based on 38 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 38 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.
