Spring Park Day Nursery provides a safe and stimulating environment for children to grow and develop. The nursery is purpose built and offers three separate rooms.

•        Baby room- A well-equipped room with sensory based toys and activities. The room also contains low level furniture to support babies in pulling themselves up to standing and develop their walking skills.

•        Toddler room- A large bright room filled with natural light, which leads on to an outdoor play area, allowing continuous indoor/outdoor play for the children.

•        Pre-School room- Two large rooms, with lots of natural light. Age appropriate toys and activities go on throughout the day. Staff encourage lots of independence in children.

It is situated next to Croxteth Hall Country Park. This provides additional unique learning opportunities for the children.

My children have been here from baby's to pre school, the staff are amazing and brought my kids confidence out really well and helped them gain friends and happiness. My children were well looked after and love being in nursery and enjoy coming in and seeing staff members and their friends. I would
definitely recommend 100% as this is the best nursery so far, I am glad I chose this one as it's really helped my children.

12-Month Review of our sons experience at Spring Park Nursery.
It's hard to believe that it's already been a full year since he started at Spring Park Nursery! Over the past 12 months, we've seen him grow in so many ways and we're incredibly grateful for the supportive, nurturing environment the nursery
has provided.
Looking back on this year, we couldn't be more pleased with his experience at Spring Park Nursery. It's been a place where he's not only learned new things but also felt loved, safe and supported. We're excited for the year ahead and feel confident that with Spring Park's continued care and guidance, he will continue to thrive and grow. Thank you to the entire team for making this first year so special!

We viewed a few nursery's and this is by far the best one. It is spacious and easy to get to. Parking is quite handy too, right outside the door. A few of our friends have also moved their children into this nursery now too. I love the way you can see your child through the windows upon arrival. All
staff members are so polite, kind and happy all the time which makes leaving my child at the nursery a lot easier knowing they're going to have a fun filled day with such lovely people. I love the way I can track my child's daily activities and meals on the nursery app. My child is always coming home with little cute crafts he's made in nursery for each calendar occasion. My child is always so happy going into nursery and when he is picked up. The staff members treat my child like one of their own and always make sure he is comforted and happy when in their care.

Brilliant nursery, my little girl has been attending spring park since she was 9 months old and is nearly 2. She absolutely loves it and is so happy when we arrive. I really like how every member of staff even from different rooms open the door and greet her by her name. I've had no problems the staff
are lovely, caring and keep you up to date with everything, you get regular pictures to see how there day is going updates on her meals etc. Really glad I picked this nursery it's clean and has a warm feeling to it couldn't fault it.

Amazing staff, always go above and beyond to accommodate the kids and the parents needs.
This is my son's second year there, he moved up class and again everyone is so good.
My son is bilingual, we only teach him one language at home but I can see a huge improvement in English since he has been in
nursery.

My daughter has been at this nursery since she was 9 months old and is now 3. The nursery provide excellent care and a range of activities she enjoys. The number 1 attribute I would commend them on is communication. They have an app which I receive regular communication on my daughters daily activities
and her progress for her age.

My little boy started in January from a different nursery through recommendations from a friend whose child already attends and so glad we moved him now. Every member of staff I have spoken with so far have all been lovely, the communication is amazing. When he has gone in unsettled, I have been sent
updates reassuring me that he is happy with pictures to put me at ease. They are really knowledgeable of the early years outcomes and have already received a little observation with links to these. Really looking forward to my daughter starting later in the year.

Spring Park Nursery is a lovely place, the staff are friendly and caring and every one of them know both my children who attend. My mind is at peace when they're at nursery and I know they're well looked after. They've both bonded with staff members and have close relationships with both staff and children.
I will be very sad when they have to move on to big school. They've both come on so much since starting. I would recommend Spring Park to anyone.

My son has attended Spring Park Nursery for the last three years. My son was very shy at first but the staff at Spring Park really helped him to come out of his shell. My son is now very confident and has come on in leaps and bounds since attending Spring Park. The girls always go that extra mile and
nothing is ever too much. I would highly recommend Spring Park to anyone. I will be sad to say goodbye as my baby goes off to big school. You will all be truly missed.

Both of my babies attend Spring Park Nursery and I honestly couldn't fault them. Being a first-time mum was tricky and I looked around a lot of nurseries in the area, and Spring Park was by far my favourite, so when I had my second child, it was a no-brainer that this was the nursery again for us. The
staff are all amazing with the children and cater to their needs, excellent communication skills and both of my children adore the staff there. Both of my children have allergies and the nursery staff and cook adapt meals suitable for my children.
My 3-year-old hates pick-up time when she has to leave and come home with me! She's always having so much fun and loves telling me all the fun things she has done. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My child has been at Spring Park for coming up to 3 and a half years and has gone from the baby room to toddlers to preschool.
Spring Park has been amazing from day one and there has always been consistency with key workers/room managers.
The staff have been brilliant and have ensured such smooth
transitions when moving up rooms.
The facilities are lovely with lots of outdoor space.
My little one has learned so much this pre-school year and practices numbers and namewriting every day.
A special mention to three members of staff in particular who have all been incredible, they made me (a nervous first-time mum) feel so reassured that my little one was safe and happy with them.

Reply from Niki Burns, Area Manager at Spring Park Nursery

Many thanks for the lovely review! Your son has been a pleasure to watch growing and developing! His writing skills are amazing and his sense of humour and personality will be missed and wish him well in the future.

An overall great nursery helped loads with my child’s development, would be 5 stars but should consider more variety of food during the evening. Staff assessments of the children are a bit confusing as they go off different teachers' observations. Would recommend this nursery to friends and family.

Reply from Niki Burns, Area Manager at Spring Park Nursery

Thank you for your review and we will look at our evening menu. With regards to assessments, all the staff are fully trained on the EYFS and child development and when children transition to new rooms they will have a new key person. Sorry that you have found this process confusing, maybe book in for a parent review with your child's key person and you can discuss things together, thank you for your honest feedback.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.903)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.903) out of 10 for Spring Park Nursery 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 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.903 for Spring Park Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (281 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 310 Ratings = 4.903

  • 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 Spring Park Nursery is based on 26 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 88 number of registered child places is 17.6, which has been reached with 26 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.
