My daughter has been attending Nurtured at Wakefield for over a year! The staff are always so amazing and she genuinely loves the girls who work there, talks about them at home, and is always happy to go to nursery! The posts and pics on family are always so cute and I always feel comfortable knowing
she is been looked after!

My children have been attending for over a year and a half now. And I absolutely love this place for my children! The staff are amazing, and the communication is great. The environment is safe and the nursery has been made to be a very comfortable safe place for children and babies. I never have any
worry, I am always reassured. The recent Halloween party was absolutely amazing and you can tell how much hard work the staff put in to give the best outcome for the children which means a lot. Thank you Nurtured for giving my children the best days they are in. As well as the amazing trips when they go out! Would definitely recommend this nursery 100%.

I love how my daughter comes home happy each time she's there. She seems to have learnt so much in the short time she's there, is eating so many new foods from the meals she has and is starting to make friends. It's nice to see her opening up to new adults which shows me the staff are good with her.
I can't wait to see how much more she develops in this lovely setting with the amazing staff.

Cannot recommend Nurtured @ Wakefield enough. Our little boy has been going here for nearly 2 years now and absolutely loves it. They go above and beyond to plan amazing trips and activities for the children. There is always some event they have planned! They take such good care of the children and
build really strong relationships with them. All of the staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble.
Our son has come on so much since starting nursery, they really promote independence and he's always coming home having learnt something new.
The food always smells amazing and he seems to love it (nearly always going for seconds haha!)
It truly is a brilliant little nursery and I always feel happy dropping him off in the morning knowing he's in safe hands and is going to have a wonderful day.

If I could give more stars then I would! My daughter has only been attending nursery for 4 weeks and I can’t praise the staff enough. My daughter has type 1 diabetes and the girls go above and beyond with supporting her! They have made me and Dad feel so relaxed and calm whilst they are caring for her.
The staff are so welcoming and the children that attend always look happy and fully engaged in the activities that are set up. Even the nursery cook reached out to me when they had a few changes on the menu to support my daughter’s needs. Beautiful nursery with outstanding staff!

I could not be happier with the service provided for my daughter during her time at Nurtured. Key workers are attentive to her wishes and needs and always plan provisions and activities that support her development across each of the early-year strands. Members of staff are all friendly and approachable,
making drop-offs and collection easy and comfortable. My daughter thinks very highly of her key worker and the members of staff that oversee her in preschool, I am overjoyed.

Great staff and facilities, keep you updated on your child and do their best for them. My daughter only started going this month and while she gets upset when dropped off, she settles in quickly and seems to have a lot of fun.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We are so happy that your little one has settled in and they are enjoying their time at nursery.

I was a bit apprehensive about bringing my little boy to this nursery after reading the reviews online. However, when I visited the nursery one of the staff showed me around and told me about the plans for the nursery to improve as new management.
I must say that I am very pleased with Nurtured at
Wakefield Nursery. My little boy loved going to nursery, he was well looked after there and his key worker was always communicating with me. Thanks to one staff member who gave my boy a warm welcome initially as his key person. Thanks to the staff, always giving me handovers about my little boys' day whenever I picked him up.
The only thing is, that it would be helpful if parents could see meal plans for the day or week to enable parents to not repeat the same meal at home for tea.
Overall, I will recommend Nurtured at Wakefield to my family and friends.

My eldest has been going to this nursery since she was 9 months old, she’s always loved it here and I’ve always felt comfortable and happy sending her. The staff are great and more than happy to help in any way they can and address any concerns I might have instantly.
My youngest has been going since
she was 8 months and I’ve had the same experience, if not better. Staff have implemented the app which means I get regular updates and good communication throughout the day and I’m updated regularly on my children’s learning and progress at nursery.

Our child has been attending Nurtured since 2022 and loves it. Every day there are different activities for the children to play with and learn from. The staff put a lot of effort into the activities and planning of each one, taking on board what the children's current interests at home are so that
they can be incorporated into nursery activities as well.
The food is always varied and looks fab - I have recently been informed that the nursery's take on a meal was better than I cooked at home!
The app is a great addition and the staff keep it up to date with activities, observations and meals eaten etc. throughout the day.
The whole team are fab and take a real interest in the children. Our child loves going to nursery and asks almost every morning "am I going to nursery today?"
It is a great nursery and one we would recommend.

My son attends this nursery and all the staff are fab, welcoming and so easy to talk to. The activities they do are brilliant and stimulating.
They are going out on trips to the local park and have loads that they plan to do that are fun as well as educational.

My toddler daughter has been attending Nutured since December 2023. Initially, she was attending part-time but after seeing the inputs she received from there, I put her full-time. Care, attention, food everything is top class. Management is very parent-friendly and flexible with timings when we want
some immediate arrangements due to a personal emergency. Cheers to the entire team. Special thanks to four staff members in particular of whom my daughter will address as her friends.

I was shocked when trying to locate a nursery place for my son 9 months ahead of my return to work. I finally found a spot at Nurtured and thank God, the other nurseries didn't have a place! I could not imagine sending my son anywhere else (I've even argued with the hubby about not moving out of the
area as I couldn't possibly send him somewhere new). All staff are super friendly and approachable. My little one just toddles in and greets everyone on his way to the baby room. They acted super swiftly when he suffered a seizure during naptime and got him the help he needed whilst maintaining communication throughout. He's always doing something creative and is really thriving in the setting.

So far we have had a pleasant experience, we started late in the academic year and it took us a while to settle in however, so far I'm happy with the attention my child has been given to help get him prepared for reception.

My son enjoys coming to the nursery on Mondays and Tuesdays and always has a smile on his face coming home like he’s had an amazing time. From what I see on the app, the staff love doing their job. Also, they make sure they are engaging and provide a stimulating environment for my son.

My son has been attending Nurtured @ Wakefield for nearly a year. He started only doing one day and did take some time to settle but his key person and the room leader who are now in the baby room are amazing. They really do go above and beyond to make my little boy happy, and I feel so at ease leaving
him in their care. He spends his time at home shouting their names, and he smiles and claps his hands when we arrive at nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.862)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.862) out of 10 for Nurtured @ Wakefield 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 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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 4.862 for Nurtured @ Wakefield is calculated as follows: ( (462 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 523 Ratings = 4.862

  • 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 Nurtured @ Wakefield is based on 44 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 53 number of registered child places is 10.6, which has been reached with 44 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.
