My son has had the best experience at Pixley Dell. He started just after lockdown, in the hope of socialising him, after spending most of his life with just Daddy and I. He settled in really well and is such an outgoing child now. All staff, from the baby room right through to the Early Years room are
amazing and care so much for our little ones. They develop really close relationships which is lovely to see. My son has learned so much and is more than ready for reception now. Every time we have been to an event at the nursery, everyone has been so kind and welcoming; there's such a nice relaxing atmosphere. When we had our 2nd son, there were no doubts where he would be going.

A fantastic nursery. My little boy has been going for around a year and a half. From being so nervous at first, he has come on so much and now so confident walking in. He absolutely loves going and taking part in all of the different activities. The staff are fantastic. Very approachable and flexible
to changing circumstances. Very friendly and supportive team which has really helped my little boy to settle and flourish.

My son who is now four and daughter who is one have both attended this nursery from around eight months old. Pixley Dell Day Nursery is a great nursery, I would really recommend it. My son and daughter really have come on so well in this environment, the staff are so helpful and nurturing, we get updated
via the online app on a regular basis. My son and daughter really enjoy their time at nursery and have developed good bonds with both staff and other children, there are always a range of activities for them to do both inside and outside. They have early drop off breakfast club and also later pick up with has been really helpful for our family. Pixley Dell Day Nursery has helped my son develop confident skills to now attend school in September, he has been working on numbers, shapes and has developed really well in the preschool room as a result of the support from staff. Communication with nursery has always been very good both via email and telephone and they are always on hand to offer support and advice.

My son started when he was eleven months old, he is now four years old. Everyone in the nursery is excellent and is always really helpful and my son loves going. I know he is safe and happy every day he is there and he loves all the staff. They have always been flexible when we have needed to change
days. The nursery is clean and tidy. The outside space is small but full of fun activities.

Brilliant nursery and can’t fault them for one thing at all. My daughter absolutely loves it here, she started after Christmas. I can’t believe how much she’s came on since starting Pixley Dell Day Nursery. Her talking is amazing, she could hardly say five words before joining and now I can have conversations
with her. She’s such a happy little girl and I’ve noticed her behaviour has massively changed since joining. She was such a shy little girl, wouldn’t go to anybody else or play with other children. It’s amazing hearing nothing but good things when she finishes the day, of how well she’s doing and she’s always happy when I collect her and that’s enough as a parent to tell me she absolutely loves coming here. The girls and one male member of staff are amazing with all the kids and it’s so nice to see how happy my daughter is with them.

I now have three children attending this nursery, my eldest has been attending for just over one year now and his sister's have recently started. It is a cosy little setting, the staff are very friendly and helpful. They genuinely care about my children's welfare, happiness and needs.

The meals and snacks available

My son started here in September, although he used to get upset when I was time for me to leave the girls have helped him fit in well. He now goes into without a problem, he's come on loads. The different things he's learning at the nursery you can see the difference in him, they also have an app you
get photos of your child sent to so you can know what they doing day in day out and the nursery! A brilliant nursery, would definitely recommend.

What a fantastic nursery and group of happy girls who look after my son. I was very nervous about putting my son in nursery after a bad experience at the one I had chosen first. But I had nothing to worry about from the first settling in session, my son, at 9 months old, was happy and smiling. The girls
were interacting with him. He comes home happy every day and worn out and sleeps all night which is an added bonus! He is learning new stuff every day, loves the sign language classes, trying new foods and mixing with other kids. I get regular updates and pictures at work from the Pixley app which I love brightens my working day seeing his little face. I would recommend the nursery to everyone.

My daughter has started here at seven months old and in the time she has been here, she has shown great confidence. The nursery staff are what makes this nursery, they are extremely friendly and very helpful to me when I collect my daughter, ensuring I pick everything up.


I love the fact that this

nursery use tapestry, so when I'm sat at work or home I get notifications on my email to show me the fun things she's been doing and learning.

This is a lovely, cosy nursery. Both of my children have enjoyed it and my second child is enjoying their time at Pixley Dell. The management and staff cannot do much more to make the child and parent happy. As a parent, I feel very confident leaving my child in the care of such wonderful people. Everyone
has a great positive attitude, and they have fantastic skills. My children have learned a lot and it gave/gives them a great start into their lives.

My child has just left here to start school in September and has been here since they were 15 months old. I cannot recommend the setting enough. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and always put the children first. I would highly recommend to anybody wanting a nursery in the Spennymoor area.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.116)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.116) out of 10 for Pixley Dell Day Nursery 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Pixley Dell Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.116 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Pixley Dell Day Nursery is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 43 number of registered child places is 8.6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.6 = 0.116

  • 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.
