Lovely nursery. All my children have been going there for the last seven years.
The staff are super friendly, and all my girls love the nursery.
They are very involved with the parents, keeping me up to date with my child's development.
They throw many seasonal events at the nursery, which are
always a success, and the children have so much fun.

I have had an excellent experience with the nursery. They have been extremely supportive through personal issues that I had keeping an eye on my child and keeping in regular communication. My child thrives in the nursery under their care, and absolutely loves it. I recommend the nursery to any friend
who is looking, and I have been very happy with their care throughout the last two years my child has been there.

My granddaughter attends Summerfield currently and is such a confident, happy little girl. She always talks very highly of the nursery and the friends she has made. Summerfield is welcoming, and all the girls are very friendly - a real home-from-home.

My child has attended Summerfield Nursery for 18 months now. His development and confidence have come on in leaps and bounds; he is extremely well cared for by all the lovely staff, and he loves nursery days! The nursery has so many different things going on, and they are very attentive to any needs;
they also do lots of parent events which we love. Fab nursery, fab staff!

My son has attended this nursery since he was eight months old.
We have never had any issues, all the staff are lovely, and I couldn’t think of a better place for him to go whilst I’m at work.
I know he is safe and learning new things every day.
Staff are very supportive whenever I’ve needed to
ask them things regarding his development.

We have recently joined this nursery after moving, and it is so good my child has settled so well in such a short time. In that time, they have been on several outings, and she has learnt so much. My daughter loves all her teachers, and every evening I pick her up, we always get an update on what they
have done and eaten that day. I can not fault this nursery at all.

I can’t stress enough how friendly, clean and wonderful the building itself is with so much to offer for children to grow. Our daughter has settled in brilliantly, thanks to the caring staff who she adores. Nothing is too much for the staff, and all of them update us regularly, as well as inform us
of our daughter's day on pick up. Our little girl is so happy to arrive there, and they really listen and are attentive towards her. She loves the activities and days out. The nursery goes above and beyond to make the children happy and parents comfortable. It has been a wonderful experience for us as a family, and mostly, for our child; I couldn’t recommend it more.

An incredible nursery. The setting is beautiful, and the staff are fantastic with the children. My daughter has been there for just over a year now and thoroughly enjoys it. She has allergies, and these have been catered for from the very beginning. The staff are very reassuring and will go above and
beyond to help with any queries you may have. Thank you to all the staff at Summerfield for making this decision an easy one!

My son has recently joined the nursery, and already I've seen a huge improvement in him. He absolutely loves going. He says "nursery is fun" in his exact words. The staff are all so reassuring and lovely, so I know he is in safe hands.

Summerfield is a fantastic setting. Our little girl moved here 9-months ago from another nursery and settled really quickly. She speaks fondly of all the staff and has made some lovely friends. The progress updates on the app are great to see, and the enthusiasm my little one has each morning is a testament
to the atmosphere the team create. Summerfield is always flexible where possible, which is a huge help when working a rota, and I couldn’t be happier with the service.

I am so glad I sent my son to Summerfield, as he seems to be settling well. Staff are all great, especially one lady who my son has bonded with really well. I was nervous at first as my son would get very upset, and the manager said to call anytime for an update - both her and another member of staff
have been great. I love the online app, which they update daily with photos etc.

My 1 year old son started at Summerfield after a year of lockdown and hardly any contact with people outside his own family. Summerfield carers were brilliant at helping him settle in and he absolutely loves it! He is so happy to go and gets excited when we pull in to the car park. The outside area
is excellent and he really enjoys the arts & crafts, sensory room and messy play.
The nursery is very flexible and are able to accommodate my changing work pattern with a couple of weeks notice which is a huge help.
It is a lovely friendly environment & I’m very happy for my son to attend Summerfield.

A lovely, warm and welcoming nursery.
My little 3-year-old has recently started nursery for the first time and has settled here very well (he enjoys his nursery morning's and is happy going in and happy on collection).
The staff are friendly and give you an update of what they did when you collect
your little one.
This nursery is located in a fantastic area close to town, beach, parks etc - very accessible whether travelling by car, bus or walking.
It's also just like one big house (my little one likes to spot "the white nursery house" on our walk there). It's like a 'home from home' due to this and the way the staff have it all set up ready to learn through play. I feel that this has been a contributing factor regarding how well my toddler has settled at Summerfield Nursery.

My little boy has attended the nursery for two years, and he has always been happy there. He has always loved his key workers who get to know him and his needs. Any issues that we have had are usually resolved quickly. Events held at the nursery have always been good - obviously when they were allowed.
Management tends to listen to suggestions on how to improve things.

My son has been at Summerfield since he was 8-months-old, and I've never had tears at drop off once. He’s made great friends, and the staff have been so consistent and stayed the same, so it is like home from home for him with a second family. During this year when things have been uncertain, they have
been so flexible and accommodated a change in days more than once to suit us as a family without complaint.
And more recently, my son left his comfort blanket on a Friday evening, and the manager went back on Saturday and dropped it off at our house, so he wasn’t without it all weekend, above and beyond. I feel he is never just another child, and they really know his personality and needs.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.962)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.962) out of 10 for Summerfield Nursery 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 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.962 for Summerfield Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (333 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.962

  • 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 Summerfield Nursery is based on 29 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 29 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.
