My son loves this nursery.
The staff are all so helpful. We are always kept up to date with what has been happening. I can't thank them enough for putting our minds at rest knowing our son is safe and happy through all of this awful pandemic. As key workers, they tried their best to keep it as normal
as they could for our son.

My eldest went here and loved it and my little girl is here now. She cannot wait to get into the nursery and is always so excited to go and a happy girl when I pick her up. All of the staff and management are professional and nice and would recommend it to anyone looking for childcare.

My niece absolutely loves going to this nursery. On a morning, before she's ready, she's asking if the nursery is 'open yet' because she is so keen to go. She loves the staff, especially her key worker, who clearly cares about her. The kids do all kinds of activities that are hands-on and are out in
the community, which my niece absolutely adores. As she loves being outside, the excellent outdoor area means she can have lots of fun there. Staff are very approachable and communicative. My niece is always bringing home crafts that she has made and is very proud of. She's made so much progress and people comment all the time on how well-spoken she is, which must at least partially be as a result of her time in nursery. She has made lots of friends at nursery due to the fact that all the kids seem so lovely and well-behaved, which must be as a result of the excellent example set by staff. When she starts school next year, we believe she will be more than ready for the challenges ahead.

Both my children have been through all three rooms at this setting. I have been very happy with the care they have received. I think the main strengths of the nursery are that they are well organised and the staff are very caring and really bond with the children. My children have really developed confidence
over their years at Nurserytime and it is wonderful to hear about all the activities they do each week.

My daughter has recently started attending Nurserytime. The settling in process is going very well and she loves attending nursery. Being only 9 months old, I was very curious about how she would be but when the staff report back to me on how she's been, there are no worries at all! The staff are all
very caring and could not be more helpful for me and my daughter!

My son has attended nursery here since he was 7 months old. He loves all the staff and his learning is fantastic. The learning journey that he has is full of photos and it shows all his learning and how much he loves it. He is due to start school soon and he will miss nursery and all the staff. I can't
thank them enough.

I find this nursery to be everything I need and would like for my little girl. If there is any little change in her care needs the staff quickly change her plan and speak to me directly, if she is unwell they are fast acting and always contact me if she is unwell.

My wife and I are delighted with the care and attention they have shown towards our son. The Nursery Time, staff are professional, helpful and enthusiastic in their care of children. The have been of great assistance when we have had to change arrangements at short notice and always do what they can
to support parents.
We really like how the Nursery Time staff make time to give us information, and feedback on how our son has done each day and what he's experienced. It gives us as parents a huge piece of mind when our son is always always greeted with friendly and genuine staff who love working with children.

Reply from Susan Brown, owner at Nurserytime Willington

How rewarding to hear this comment our staff work very hard to ensure both children and parents feel welcome and parents can be confident of our commitment to their children.

My little girl has come on leaps and bounds since starting at nursery time when she was 9 months old. I was encouraged to visit the nursery on a number of occasions before she started which meant she was familiar with staff and the facilities before starting. The Teddies Room is very welcoming with
good facilities. Staff are really friendly and there are always loads of different activities going on. I am kept fully up to date of how my little girl is getting on and staff take the time at both pick up and drop off to personally speak to you and your child. There is a good variety of different meals provided throughout the week with plenty of fruit and vegetables included. My little girl is now 13 months and loves going - she gets excited when we arrive on a morning and even waves me off to work. I am very pleased with my choice of nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.857)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.857) out of 10 for Nurserytime Willington 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 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 4.857 for Nurserytime Willington is calculated as follows: ( (262 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 300 Ratings = 4.857

  • 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 Nurserytime Willington 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 89 number of registered child places is 17.8, 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.
