Both my children have attended Mazehill, my eldest was always well cared for and always happy to attend she made some life long friends here. My youngest daughter has been attending Mazehill nursery for nearly 2 years now and she is always so happy to attend and is well looked after. All the staff are
very approachable and have the children’s best interest at the forefront of their work. I cannot recommend Mazehill enough.

My son has been at Mazehill from being 10 months old and thoroughly enjoys going to nursery. The staff go above and beyond for my child and are extremely helpful to me. It’s so reassuring knowing that your child is safe and cared for, especially through these difficult times. Would definitely recommend
Mazehill!

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was about 13 months old. She has thrived in this environment and I trust the staff completely to look after her. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them whether that's some brief instructions from us on the day about her routine changes or me calling
during the day just because I want to see how she is doing! Her development has come on so much since attending the nursery and she has a great time with the other children. I cannot recommend the nursery highly enough and I thank all of the staff for the kind and attentive care of my child.

My little boy has attended this nursery for the past two years and I can not recommend the nursery and the staff enough.
He loved going which says a lot about how much he enjoyed it, always coming home with pictures etc.
The staff definitely go above and beyond to make things special for the little
ones. We loved the nativity they did at Christmas and the special effort for their graduation.
Thank you to everyone at Mazehill that made my little boys time so special.

During lockdown, our usual nursery closed. As a key worker, I had to find alternative childcare at short notice.
Mazehill have been amazing. They have done everything they can to make this time as stress-free as possible. They really supported my daughter to settle in and have been so kind.
I wouldn't
dream of sending my daughter back to her old nursery now. She has come on so much since attending Mazehill. She loves it there!

The staff at Mazehill are welcoming, friendly and always available for a handover on collection of my two sons. It helps to put your mind at ease when you know your children are in safe hands, having fun and learning at the same time. My 3-year-old son is always asking if it’s his nursery day. After
having some time off during Covid, he was eager to return and ran in to greet the staff. Thank you for being so patient during the settling in stage at the beginning, it’s much appreciated.

The girls at Mazehill are fantastic, my son loved going to Mazehill and talks about the girls all the time. There's not a bad word I can say about this place. I will definitely send my younger child here when it's his turn to start preschool. They reassured me when my son wasn't keen on staying in the
first two weeks of nursery and even told me to give them a ring mid-morning to put my mind at rest. Once again the girls are amazing I would recommend.

Both my children attend Mazehill Nursery one of them will be staying a couple years longer but the other one who has been attending since she was 1 years old will be moving on to Primary. Mazehill you have been amazing with our girl, she has come on so much and she has made some lovely friends! It will
be very emotional to see her move on up in the world and I’d like to thank how amazing all you staff have been through COVID and just in general. Couldn’t ask for better care for my children! Definitely recommend!

The Manager and the rest of the staff can't do enough for you, any issues are resolved within 24hr and both my boys love the nursery, many happy memories here and there's plenty of info given out on a monthly newsletter. The children are always happy, smiling and laughing anytime you go in, it's very
clean, fresh, healthy food cooked daily and plenty of snacks and drinks for them in-between. Highly recommended!

I cannot recommend Mazehill highly enough! As my maternity leave ended, I was nervous about leaving my baby in the care of somebody else as she had allergies however I was instantly put at ease by the high-quality care and expertise by all members of staff.
Two years on and my little girl still loves
going to nursery and talks so fondly of her time with her friends and the staff at Mazehill.
I have always been well informed about what has happened during each day regarding any incidents, friendships, activities and meals eaten.
The manager and her whole team go above and beyond to make both children and parents happy with the care they receive.
Mazehill is a happy environment that I am glad we are a part of!

Outstanding nursery. My 2 boys have been attending since 9 months and they both love it. The manager and the girls are all amazing and put me at ease anytime I call or am worried about anything. They have helped my boys no end with their behaviour, learning and general well being. The price is very
competitive and the outdoor space is lovely. World book day and VE Day have been some examples of lovely activities they have provided and their support and enthusiasm through the Covid pandemic has been nothing short of brilliant. As key workers, we had absolutely no concerns with our children attending through lockdown. I feel the staff go that extra mile with everything from help potty training to support with discipline and any anxieties my children experience. I cannot rate this nursery highly enough and feel lucky my children attend.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, our regular nursery closed. My wife and I are keyworkers and we desperately needed our two children to go to nursery so we could go to work. Mazehill welcomed them at extremely short notice with open arms. The staff and management are simply exceptional and it was with
a very heavy heart that we returned the children to their regular nursery when it reopened. We will be forever grateful to all at Mazehill and will recommend them to everyone.

Fantastic Nursery! The staff, facilities, help, advice, learning and activities are all excellent. The manager goes out of her way to help as much as possible, nothing is too much trouble. Very easy to talk to and down to earth. I enjoy looking through my child's record book and it is always kept up
to date. I enjoy looking at all the creative displays around the nursery. The Christmas nativity was amazing. From my child joining the baby room at 10 months old to where they are now in preschool, we have always been so happy with the care and support that has been provided and are so pleased we chose Mazehill Nursery for our little one, thanks.

My little girl has settled in so well at Mazehill. I couldn't have asked for a better nursery and she is thriving in the preschool. She is happy and content here and the staff are outstanding and really care for the children and teaching them important skills and lessons for their early years and to
get them ready for school. The nursery/preschool is like a family and we have been made to feel most welcome.

Mazehill Nursery do a wonderful job. I feel really confident about leaving my son in their care every day. He gets to do different things every day, socialise and enjoy new activities regularly. Even though I am not there I feel like the staff do a great job of letting me know how his day was, which
I really value. I am really pleased we picked this nursery, our experience so far has been great.

All the staff, especially the manager, are extremely caring and are always available for a chat. They are all excellent with my daughter and they get to know how children are on an individual basis. I feel they genuinely care about my most prized possession and the recent nativity they held was excellent
and unique. All in all, I wouldn't want anyone else to look after my daughter.

Both of my children have attended Mazehill nursery. I trust all members of staff with them as they provide an environment where my children feel safe and secure. They both have a lovely bond with the staff, especially their keyworkers. I feel I am kept up to date with the progress my children are making
and if any concerns were to arise, the staff would inform me at the earliest opportunity. I would and have recommended many people to Mazehill. My children will miss everyone.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.888)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.888) out of 10 for Mazehill 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.905 for Mazehill Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (255 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.905

  • 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 4.983 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mazehill Nursery is based on 23 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 117 number of registered child places is 23.4. 23 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.4 = 0.983

  • 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.
