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.

All staff know my son and say hello when he starts his day. He feels happy and safe in the nursery and talks positively about the staff as well as his nursery friends. Staff are aware of his interests and use these to motivate him and develop his skills. Nursery are supportive of my child's additional
needs. He always eats all the food provided and enjoys the toys and spaces. Staff set up fun activities and always offer feedback at the end of the day. Staff also contact us if there are ever any questions or concerns.

Absolutely love this nursery all three children of mine have attended here over the years with the eldest being 10 and the youngest being 3 (and still attends Spring Park), I've literally been made to feel like part of the family and have a close bond with all the staff including the manager who goes
above and beyond to help even with personal issues. My children have loved this nursery and I don't think I could have picked anywhere better.

Both of my children have attended Spring Park Nursery and we’ve only had the odd trivial issue like a lost bag or coat (they’ve always turned up) both children have loved the nursery and we get on great with the staff.

Lovely nursery. The staff are great and my little boy is really happy here. I love the app they use for pictures and development it also allows for quick and clear communication between staff and parents.

Excellent staff, my child has really flourished and gained confidence she loves going to nursery and seeing the staff every day. The care and attention they give the children is lovely to see. I waited for my child to start here as my niece and nephew both went here which was 16 years ago now, and I
knew then I wanted my child here, can’t fault anything.

Our son attends Spring Park Nursery one day a week in the baby room. He has settled in well and with ease following the nursery's phasing in process. He has an excellent relationship with his key worker who he is always happy to see and she attends to his needs well. The staff update his book daily
so we can see what he's eaten, his nap times, how he's been generally and the activities he's taken part in. The room leader and all the staff in the baby room do an excellent job and I know our son is well cared for.

This is an amazing nursery, they have helped me over come leaving my daughter with someone other than family. They are just brilliant at their jobs.
My daughter has come a long way, she is sitting up, which she couldn't do when she first started, just a month ago.
The manager is brilliant with the
children and the parents.
I would 100% recommend this nursery. All the girls are absolutely amazing.

Over the last year, my child has attended Spring Park. Every time we turn up to the nursery, we are greeted by one of the smiley, friendly staff that work there. An effort is always made by staff to settle him in each day before I leave. I am very happy with how much my child has progressed and become
more confident. The nursery use an app and social media to keep parents informed and show pictures of him having fun. I find this reassuring and like to show him when he is home to remind him of his day.

My son has been attending this nursery since August 2016. I've been very happy about the set up of the nursery, the staff's attitude and my child's progress. At the start, a lot of time and attention were given to the process of adapting to nursery.
Then, at transition from baby to toddler room, again
the staff did their job brilliantly, spent a lot of time adapting my son and it went smoothly.
All my wishes are respected, I'm very happy with the nursery.

My grandson started the nursery in baby room and is now in toddler room. He loves to come to nursery and it has been lovely seeing him grow in confidence and begin to make friends. The staff are always pleased to see him and I am confident that he is looked after well and will participate and enjoy
varied activities while he's at the nursery. He especially loves to play in the garden and he also loves to tell us what he's been doing and all about his meals and snacks as he particularly enjoys sitting with the other children during this lovely social time. I have been very happy with all aspects of the nursery.

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.
