We are happy with this nursery because our son is growing up in different aspects. He enjoys the nursery days as he was only 15 hours per week. So he is happy going to the nursery. Our overall experience is fully satisfactory.

The teachers go above and beyond to help my little ones settle in and meet their needs every day. I've seen a lot of progress with my daughter learning the language and communicating her emotions and needs. My son needed extra help settling in and everyone was very supportive. He's since made friends,
learnt new skills and continues to develop. The management is very helpful and has worked well with our family to find the schedules that suit our family best. I particularly enjoy all the updates through the app, knowing what my children have been up to, seeing their pictures and receiving observations. Thank you very much for taking such a good care of our children!

Our daughter is very well looked after here. She eats a wide variety of good that she wouldn't usually try at home and her confidence has come on leaps and bounds since being at this nursery. We don't have to worry when she is at nursery and are kept well informed via the app of what is going on during
the day.

The nursery is super friendly. The staff are always great, they help the little ones so much and encourage them to do better. We have been with this nursery for over 2 years and our child has so many improvements in everything. Would highly recommend this nursery.

My child has been attending this nursery for over four years. Throughout his time he has become a strong independent boy. The staff are extremely supportive, and caring and are all passionate about their duty of care.
Would recommend.

My child has settled and adapted really well in her nursery setting and is growing from strength to strength thanks to the hard work of the staff members and management. As a mum, I had many worries about her transition into nursery as suffers from allergies but I have been supported throughout with
this by the fantastic team you have looking after my child and all her peers. I feel nursery has gone up and beyond for my child and has such a special bond with one staff member, in particular, but also loves all her carers and all the team. I'm so happy with my child's development since being at nursery and my child is so happy going, I can't thank you enough well done.

Reply from Emma Prince, Manager at Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road)

My fourteen month old son has been welcomed to Little Rascals, Station Road with open arms by every member of staff. I cannot fault anyone. Little Rascals has helped my son develop so much - from learning to crawl, walk, trying new foods and even gaining new friends! He absolutely loves coming to nursery
and always comes home with a big smile on his face. I know that he is 100% looked after and if I have any problems I know I can easily speak to any of the staff members.
Also, the App they use is amazing! I get regular updates on what my son does daily - eating, napping, wet/dry nappies, playing outside and photos as well!
I would most definitely recommend Little Rascals, Station Road to anyone! Thank you so much for all you are doing!

My son has been attending Little Rascals full time since he was 11 months (green room) - he is now 2 years and 2 months (yellow room). He absolutely loves the staff at Little Rascals and gets so excited when they come to the door to collect him. He's so independent and I've really noticed him learning
new skills, encouraged by the staff. I love the regular updates on the app and the photos they add of him playing. He has lots of friends and we've been able to meet up with some outside of the nursery. I would recommend the nursery to any parent. I just love the pure joy the staff show looking after the children and that is reflected in my happy little boy.

The staff are very welcoming both to child and parents. I find the nursery quite secure and a nice environment for a child to be nurtured in, as I have noticed a very good development and growth in my child's entire behaviour and knowledge. I will always recommend

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.809)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.809) out of 10 for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.809 for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is calculated as follows: ( (168 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.809

  • 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 Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is based on 17 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 17 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.
