My son is in Teeny Moons. We cannot speak highly enough of the team and the experience my son has.
We have actually recommended the nursery to numerous friends.
In summary and our experience with previous nurseries, Banana Moon Day Nursery is streets ahead of the rest.

Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield has provided excellent childcare to my son for the past two years. They have been very supportive and vigilant regarding his asthma which has put me at ease. His development has also come in tremendously since attending.

The Baby Moons team have been incredible from day one. My daughter felt so at ease within a short space of time and she absolutely loves her days in nursery. She was put in a hip spica cast at 23 months and the staff were so accommodating and went above and beyond to welcome her back and met all her
new needs perfectly. I can't recommend Banana Moon Day Nursery enough. It will be a sad day when we have to leave!

Highly recommended nursery, I have two girls in Banana Moon, one in out of school and one in the nursery. Both girls love to come and play, lots of educational toys and things to do. Both girls have grown in confidence and both had a large help in getting ready for school. Great staff, great-sized rooms
and outdoor play areas. We love Banana Moon.

Banana Moon is a wonderful place for my son who has attended since September 2022. He has come on leaps and bounds since being in Mini Moons and the staff are amazing both supporting my son educationally and emotionally (always available for a cuddle when my son is feeling unwell). They keep me updated
on his day through the app with photos and go into detail about his meals. I can't recommend Banana Moon enough!

They are excellent with the care for my son who has Special Educational Needs. They keep accurate records of his progress and update me regularly with his achievements and any concerns or worries they have. The nursery is very welcoming at drop off and pick up and my son really enjoys his days there.
His key worker is excellent at her job and checks in when he's poorly and not at nursery to see how he is. My son is very comfortable with her and this is very reassuring given his needs when I'm not there.

My child has been attending since he was 5 and a half months. He is quite an unsure shy child but at Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield they encourage and take steps to build his confidence and skills and he is very happy there. The staff are very caring and the activities always look fun and exciting.

Great resources and environment for my two year old who we have seen develop hugely during his time at Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield. Staff are excellent; both friendly and approachable and they ensure a safe and caring environment is provided for the children. As a parent I feel my child is well
looked after, fed, cared for and encouraged educationally. Great communication between staff and parents in the form of post-session conversations, updates on the app and stay and play sessions.

I've always felt at ease talking to the early years professionals at Banana Moon, and I've witnessed their warmth and care towards my child, which is very reassuring. My son enjoys being at nursery and eating all their food! Over the last month, he's grown in confidence, and I think this is in part
due to being at the nursery. Thank you to everyone in the baby room. It's not easy taking your child to nursery for the first time, but you helped me and him through it.

Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield is outstanding in the level of care and attention they give to my little boy. The BabyMoons team are fantastic. My little boy has developed so much in the 10-months he has attended this nursery, and I couldn't be any prouder. He's laughing in all the pictures they send
and happily strides into nursery in the morning with a wave and a smile. As a parent, I couldn't ask for more. The team there are amazing.

I have two children who attend Banana Moon, my daughter goes to the out of school club in the morning and afternoon and my son is in the baby room. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming and both of my children love their time in the nursery. They do a range of activities and feedback to parents
throughout the day via the app, this is a great way to see what they have been doing. I am really looking forward to being able to go back inside the rooms at the start/end of the sessions, Covid stopped this happening and it is a real shame.

My child loves nursery. Her face lights up when we get there and she sees the staff. She also has a great bond with her key workers. She started at 9 months and has been going to Banana Moon for 9 months. There is great communication at the end of the day- we get feedback on how the day has gone; how
she has eaten, slept, particular activities.
The staff set up particular activities that engage with different child’s interests. They also do themed activities for different occasions such as Easter, Red Nose Day, etc. There’s a great mix of different activities they do including outdoor play. And a mix of social time, group activities and individual activities to help guide them through different development stages / learning new skills.
There is a great mix of food on offer as well, and they cater really well for my child who is soy and dairy-free.
And the app is great to see how we are doing throughout the day and to see what they have been up to.

Staff have been really supportive and have helped settle both our children in well. The staff in Full Moons are fantastic and have built up good relationships with us which makes us feel happy to bring children. They are both happy to come to nursery (the youngest is in the baby room and not long started)
and both really enjoy their time here.

My partner and I are extremely happy with the nursery. The level and variety of daily activities created and conducted by the staff is fantastic in comparison to his previous nursery. Banana Moon excels in all areas and our son thoroughly enjoys going to nursery now, he is excited to go each morning
which obviously really pleases myself and his dad. The staff are all very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable and seem to really care about his experience of nursery and development. The food offered is of high standard and ticks all boxes in terms of nutrition etc. Highly recommend this nursery.

I've been really impressed with how all the staff at Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield have helped our daughter settle into Mini Moons. She's a very happy little girl at her new nursery. I love how many different activities they do with her and it's lovely seeing her diary and all the photos on the app.

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.
