My little girl has been in this nursery since she was 1 and she's now nearly 3 and they've been absolutely amazing with her. She absolutely loves going to nursery and the employees are all amazing and have so much time for all the kids. I knew from the day coming into viewing this nursery it was the
right decision and I will be definitely sending my next daughter there too. She has come completely out of her shell and come on so much since being there.

My daughter has been coming to Fingerprints Nursery for the last year nearly and she enjoys coming every week. She has just started 2 days and is enjoying meeting new children and new members of staff. All of the staff are lovely and very friendly, it is so easy to speak to them about any issues

Both of my children have attended Fingerprints since they were 9 months old. My oldest is now 3 and a half, so we have experienced the nursery's care through all the provided stages. I have never had any concerns about their care of the children.


Leaving your children in any childcare setting for

the first time can be a nerve-wracking experience, but the staff at Fingerprints have always given me confidence that they are happy and well looked after. Like many children, mine can be quite clingy with me, but they are excited to go to nursery. When I pick them up they are clean (or at least as clean as children ever are) and still smiling. When speaking to staff I am always given the impression that they genuinely care about the children. My eldest will often come home telling me about the things he has learned that day. I think they are preparing him well for starting school in September. They also eat a good variety of food which they'd reject at home!

My child attends Fingerprints Nursery and is doing very well since starting, he comes home singing songs he has learnt as well as counting and doing his ABC's, the recent Christmas concert was amazing all the children seemed to really enjoy this the little activities afterwards were great, by far the
best nursery I have used for my child in Cleckheaton.

My son started in the baby room In September and has settled in really well, the staff are lovely and he's always very content. My daughter went to the same nursery a few years ago and loved it so wouldn't look anywhere else for him, it's always clean and the kids are well looked after and always seem
really happy.

My daughter has attended fingerprints since September 2024 just after her 1st birthday, we have always had a positive experience with them! The staff are all excellent, the nursery is very clean and safe, the communication is really good! My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting and really
enjoys her time there! I cannot recommend this nursery enough, they go above and beyond for every child, and we are really happy and assured with our daughter in this setting.

My son attended Fingerprints a year ago, then we had to move, therefore we moved him into a new nursery rated "Outstanding ".
I can honestly say that Fingerprints is the place where he learned new songs, words and how to count. Compared with his actual nursery that is meant to be Outstanding.
Even
now when we pass by Fingerprints he keeps showing me that this is his school.
This is just to show that rating is not always a true reflection of the service.
The only cons about Fingerprints was that he came a few times with D&V after serving meal.

The staff reassured me when my daughter first started, as she was young and not very socialised, due to Covid-19. She has settled in really well there and I think she feels safe and happy. It would be nice to get a bit more in terms of observations. I love seeing photos of her playing and exploring.

I would highly recommend Fingerprints Nursery. My little boy started this year and is already thriving here. He is learning so much and the staff at the nursery have helped his development so much. He has been able to build good relationships with all the staff as they are all really caring and nice.
He settled in almost instantly. The nursery has always helped me with the best session times and any early/late starts. I have 100% confidence that my child is safe and happy and in good hands when I drop him off. I couldn’t be happier with this nursery.

My daughter has attended Fingerprints since she was nine months old and we couldn't be happier with how she is looked after there. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming and look after the children as if they are their own. The facilities are great, with separate rooms for babies, toddlers and
pre-school age children. One of the biggest selling points for my family was that with my husband and I being shift workers, we can have some flexibility on the days that our daughter attends, which is a huge help for us. The staff have been very supportive with issues such as potty training and we are kept updated with development reviews.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.854)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.854) out of 10 for Fingerprints Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.831 for Fingerprints Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.831

  • 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 4.023 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Fingerprints Nursery is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 71 number of registered child places is 14.2. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.2 = 0.423

  • 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.
