Young person loves the nursery she is happy and content and loves to play and engage with staff and children.
I have noticed she is trying new things, I am very happy with her progress, she is saying new words and dancing to music, clapping and playing and exploring.
There are plenty of toys and activities
that all the children engage in.

This is my second child to attend this nursery. Nothing but great things to say about the nursery and the staff themselves.
Always made us feel very welcome, the staff are all lovely, very kind and clearly love what they do. My first daughter is now 7 and was adamant that I sent our second child here
as she loved it so much!
My second daughter is now 8 months old and only just started last month, she has settled in so well and I was made to feel very at ease leaving her in capable hands. Thank you!

Amazing nursery! My daughter started in the baby room a couple of months ago and I was so nervous about leaving her with anyone and I was worried she wouldn't enjoy it. I couldn't have been more wrong the staff are amazing and let me know all about her day in the app which I can access and communicate
all throughout the day. My daughter loves it, she's excited to be passed over in the mornings. I honestly can't thank all the staff enough!

My daughter started nursery in August and the staff have been amazing. Nothing is too much and they keep you informed of what they do each day with an app.
The staff are amazing! My nephew went to the nursery 9 years ago and some of the same staff are there which really made my decision easy when it
came to childcare for my daughter. It was so nice to walk back in 9 years later and to be welcomed back as if I had never left, was just unreal!
They genuinely care for each child that goes through their doors.
Would definitely recommend.

My daughter started here at the beginning of the month after a previous bad experience with another nursery. I'm so glad we chose this nursery as she really enjoys going and loves to tell us about all the fun she has with her nursery teachers, every time she goes in there's a different fun activity
to do to set up ready for the children and they change their menus every 3 weeks as well and help the children with there next steps in development through various activities and meal planning. They have really helped my daughter to settle in and adjust in the Willow Room and are great with making everything parent and child centred that nothing is too much for the staff, they really do put their all into helping children develop and thrive & I have updates via the ap so im reassured she is always having lots of fun and what she's up to at nursery. I have seen a big improvement in my daughter's confidence just from this month that she's been there, I'm glad I picked ABC for her care.

I cannot recommend ABC123 enough, I was incredibly nervous about going back to work after 14 months of maternity leave and putting our daughter into a nursery. The manager and team at ABC immediately put my mind at ease during the settling in sessions. 6 months down the line and it is probably the best
decision we made. My daughter absolutely loves it, I credit the staff who care for her with how much she has progressed. The activities and fun they have is all centred around development for her age group and I really feel they have her best interests at heart. Thank you ABC.

I’ve been filled with confidence and trust towards ABC 123 Day Nursery since the initial enrolment for my son who joined in January 2023. The staff make us all as a family feel comfortable from drop off to collection and everything in between, we are kept up to date throughout the day via an app which
is great, a mini catch up when picking up and regular parent to carer meets. Our son loves to attend nursery, he has made new friends and learnt new skills and we are so pleased with the progress he has made in his development so far in different aspects, for example eating new foods, saying new words, singing, dancing and using his manners. Would highly recommend.

My little boy joined this nursery back in March at 8 months old. He has loved it from the first day. His face lights up when we pull up. All the staff are lovely and this is reflected in the relationships with the children. I get regular updates on how he is progressing and what he’s been up to each
day. I would highly recommend ABC 123 Day Nursery.

I chose to pick this nursery off a friend's recommendation and I am so happy with my choice. The way they interact with my child is amazing, they have helped her come along with speech and potty training amazingly. Since she started less than 6 months ago, she wasn’t talking nor using the potty. Each
session my child is in, I’m kept up to date about what they have done and any issues she may have had. The relationship the staff have with my child is one I can only dream of! I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

My daughter has been so happy and cared for at ABC 123 - she has loved coming every day and has grown so much in confidence. The staff have been amazing and our whole family have loved being a part of the community at the nursery. I hope my daughter continues to thrive as much in primary school as she
has at nursery. We will miss the staff at ABC but feel very grateful for the memories that we will take with us as we move into the next chapter of our lives. I have especially loved and appreciated the catch-ups and handovers after pick-ups where I get to know the staff caring for my daughter and hear all about her antics that day! Thanks to everyone who works here - I would recommend ABC 123 to anyone looking for a nursery for their young one.

I can't recommend ABC 123 Day Nursery enough. From the very first settling-in session with my eldest son, seeing him being comforted in a new setting, I knew it was the right place for him. The staff are so personal and are so helpful with any worries. My boys absolutely love going to nursery here and
my eldest has made some lovely friends throughout his years at ABC 123. Also, for anyone worried about a fussy eater settling in at nursery, the chef caters to all children's needs, I don't know how she does it!

My daughter has attended ABC 123 Day Nursery for over 4 years and it’s been the best decision I could have possibly made for her early year's care and education. She has thrived in an environment that is welcoming and inclusive while still encouraging children to be their best. Every staff member brings
a smile to my daughter's face when they answer the door in the morning and she’s made friends for life. The meals are excellent and great consideration is given to those with special dietary needs.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.978)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.978) out of 10 for ABC 123 Day Nursery Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.978 for ABC 123 Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.978

  • 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 ABC 123 Day Nursery Ltd is based on 15 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 69 number of registered child places is 13.8, which has been reached with 15 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.
