I've sent my children to multiple nurseries, Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield is by far the best one we have attended. The care and quality of looking after children is amazing. They also have breakfast and afterschool clubs that cater to multiple local schools with exceptional staff who goes above
and beyond.

Since my daughter has been attending Banana Moon Nursery she has come along so well, she absolutely loves attending and I know that she is happy and safe. The staff are all so friendly and helpful, they've always been accommodating with my daughter and her food intolerances and always go the extra mile
to make her feel welcome and comfortable.

A really caring nursery. Our daughter was in a spica cast and they were really accommodating throughout a really stressful period. I am sure there were a few hurdles for them to cross but they only wanted to help and they were brilliant.

Since my son started at Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield a couple of years ago, he has flourished and loved every minute of it, every day he can’t wait to go to nursery! The staff have always been so welcoming, caring, understanding and accommodating to the both of us. Always making sure my son feels
happy and comfortable when he’s there, that all of his emotional and physical needs are met and that every worry or concern I’ve had, as a first-time mother, is dealt with kindness and understanding. The building is always full of smiles and laughter from both the children and staff and I always feel happy leaving my son there, knowing he’s so happy himself to be there. You can just tell that everyone who works at the setting loves what they do! This year my son will go on to reception but overall, from him starting here up until his last year, I haven’t got a single negative thing to say. It’s been a positive and lovely experience for us both throughout the years.

My son has been at the nursery for almost a year now. It didn't take him long at all to get used to being at the nursery and he now really enjoys going and when we pick him up he's in no hurry to leave. He's come on leaps and bounds and is learning new things every day. He enjoys the activities, toys
and playing with his friends, eats all his food (variety of which is great) and gets plenty of cuddles if he needs them. The staff are very kind and understanding towards the children as well as the parents. I feel he is in a safe, fun and loving environment and I couldn't have asked for more.

I was met by a smiling staff member who took my name and the names of my grandchildren. She knew I would be collecting. Spacious and clean entrance. I saw a number of staff as I made my way to collect each child and they were all smiling and welcoming which made me feel comfortable. As a grandparent
who does not visit on a regular basis, it can be daunting but I felt if I needed to ask for support or a question I would not feel like I was being a nuisance, even though they would have been busy. All children looked happy and engaged or asleep in teenie moons room.

My son and daughter both attend nursery 1 day a week and they absolutely love it.
At first, I thought only going 1 day they would struggle with the week gap, but all the staff make sure that they both feel safe and happy from the minute they start to the minute they leave.
My daughter is about to
go into Full Moons, and is so excited to move up, and my son has just started Mini Moons. In every room we have been in the staff have been understanding, compassionate and welcoming.
I can't thank Banana Moon enough for the help and support we get from them and I would recommend to everyone.

My daughter goes to nursery 3 days a week and loved it. She's always happy to go in and see her friends and the staff. She has come on so much with the support of the nursery in both Mini Moons and now in Full Moons. We love getting to see exactly what our daughter is doing every day via the app and
it's nice for us to be able to add things from home too. The food she eats is very good and varied too. Would definitely recommend Banana Moon Mirfield.

My daughter only started at Banana Moon in mid-February but already she is settled and enjoys attending. I get regular updates on the app to let me know how she is doing each day and all staff are very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for childcare in the Mirfield

My child is happy and settled at Banana Moon Day Nursery and all staff are loving and caring towards her, taking a keen interest in her learning and development. I regularly recommend Banana Moon due to the commitment and dedication of staff. Overall, I'm more than happy with the nursery and I'll be
sad when my child moves on to school.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.990)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.990) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.990 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield is calculated as follows: ( (297 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 300 Ratings = 4.99

  • 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 Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield is based on 25 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 25 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.
