Excellent nursery. Staff are all very welcoming and understanding of the needs of the children. Helped child develop and meet milestones for age. Would highly recommend. Confidentiality is key for the area I work and this was respected throughout the time the child was enrolled.

My son started ABC 123 on September 2020 at just 5 months old, having been born in lockdown he hadn't been around many people - the staff were (and still continue to be) amazing with him. The bond he has formed with his key worker, as well as other members of staff, is so lovely to see. The staff genuinely
care about his development and wellbeing, providing the best possible care. He partakes in activities, goes on walks and is stimulated excellently. I am so impressed with the level of care and attention shown.

My child has been at ABC 123 Day Nursery for the last 9 months and I can honestly say that I'm really impressed with the staff at the nursery. Everyone single member is approachable and they are friendly and so welcoming. My little man has not stopped surprising me with his development since starting.
I would highly recommend the nursery to all.

Reply from Karen Edmonds at ABC 123 Day Nursery Ltd

Thank you so much for your kind review. I am so pleased that you and your toddler are happy with the Nursery and your child is surprising you with all the things he is capable of!

Our son has been attending this nursery for almost 12 months and he absolutely loves it, just as we feel very happy and safe sending him there. All of the staff are very friendly and approachable and always on hand to reassure us if we're worried about anything to do with our son. ABC 123 have parties
and extra events throughout the year, such as a 10th birthday party for themselves in the summer, with a BBQ, games and crafts and a Halloween party in October, again with games, crafts and food. We attended both and really enjoyed them, we're looking forward to the Christmas party in a few weeks. We're kept fully up to date with what our son does when he's in nursery through their social media page (you can opt out of this) - it's a private page on which they upload photos and videos to. We would fully recommend ABC 123 to anyone, all-round great nursery.

My four-year-old daughter has been with ABC 123 since she was eight months old, it is a brilliantly-run place for babies, toddlers and pre-school children to thrive in. There are varied activities with plenty of things to learn; arts, crafts, etc and even weekly yoga sessions! Staff are very friendly,
attentive and caring. My daughter has developed so much over the past year or two and nursery has played a big part in this - she has become a much more confident, outgoing little girl, she will miss the staff and her friends very much, although she is definitely ready for her next chapter - big school!
Thank you to all the team for providing such a fun and safe environment for our daughter to play and learn.

Reply from Karen Edmonds at ABC 123 Day Nursery Ltd

Thank you so much for your review and such kind words. I am so pleased we have supported your daughter in becoming more confident and ready for the next step in her journey.

ABC 123 has been an incredible nursery for our son. He started when he was two and has loved every minute of his time here. The staff are loving, approachable and fantastic with our son. He is so sad to be leaving to go to school and will miss all of the lovely staff and children here. My son is very
well prepared thanks to the staff here. He has loved making friends, forming relationships and taking part in extra activities like yoga. Thank you so much to everyone at ABC 123.

My son has attended this nursery since he was six months old, all the staff are lovely and helpful, he enjoyed going every day and now he’s finished he keeps asking to go back. I couldn’t recommend this place enough, he came on leaps and bounds with each milestone with the help from ABC 123 Nursery.

My daughter has attended ABC since she was 9 months old and she’s soon leaving for reception class. The nursery took the time to get to know her as an individual and their communication and engagement with families is great. I’ve never had any concern with the nursery and would recommend to other parents.

My son started nursery at 11 months old, after spending very little time away from his mummy. They were both encouraged by management to have lots of settling in sessions together, to help with mummy’s separation anxiety.
The staff made us feel very welcome, and our precious boy has taken to them
all, which has helped him to settle in. Everyone is very caring and it is such a happy environment. It is comforting to know that the baby’s needs always come first, especially with fussy parents like us! Haha.

My little girl has absolutely loved her time at ABC 123 Day Nursery she has made loads of friends she was very shy when she first started and didn't want to be apart from her mummy but the staff helped so much with that and made leaving her that little be easier and after a week she was fine and settled
in really well she would come home really happy telling me about her day! Was two members of staff that my little girl got really close to and it was really nice to see as she would run to them give them a big cuddle and tell them about her weekend. Grateful for everything.

ABC 123 is an absolutely brilliant nursery, I wouldn't dream of sending my son anywhere else, all the staff are amazing and caring.
Very informative and attentive!
My son absolutely loves going here and gets excited when we pull into the car park! There is never an issue and on the rare occasion
there is as a parent I am well informed.
His development since being with the nursery is incredible and I'm so happy to know that he is in such a safe place when I'm not with him.
Thank you to all the staff for being amazing!

My daughter has been attending this nursery since August 2017 and has literally come on leaps and bounds! She loves all the staff, gets so excited about going and has learnt very valuable things such as eating with cutlery, sharing, being polite and being more independent. When she first started she
couldn't even eat food properly but within just one week she had started and continued to flourish with it. Highly recommend this nursery and have already to a friend whose daughter now attends!

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.
