I highly recommend Playland Day Nursery for childcare due to the fact that the quality, dedication and consideration given to my son over the last 2 years has been excellent and have gone above and beyond to educate my son and feel cared for, his cuddles with the staff are evident enough. Evidently,
Playland’s dedication has been tremendous, as it's been revealed over time that my son has additional learning needs and the staff here have provided that additional care and staff needed for my son to succeed and flourish in his progress, this has certainly helped him gain the confidence and trust he needed to start Nursery School. I can't thank Playland enough for helping my son and us as a family.

All the staff have been so friendly and caring from the first day and I wouldn't want her to go anywhere else. My daughter runs into Playland Day Nursery every morning and all the photos show how much fun they all have. Everyone that works there does an amazing job at caring for the children and I would
recommend Playland to anyone.

My little boy has been going to Playland since January 2022, he’s always been very nervous around people due to being a covid baby, but after just a handful of sessions he settled in so well, the staff are all so lovely and helpful. He is currently attending their flying start sessions every morning
which he absolutely loves and learns new things every day!

My son absolutely loves Playland Day Nursery and all the staff, he is excited in the mornings to go. He has settled in from day one. They are very flexible and very welcoming. I couldn’t imagine having him in another nursery.

Best nursery. My daughter had been to 2 nurseries and she absolutely loves it here! The staff couldn’t do any more to help! Very welcoming and such a lovely and warm environment. My daughter gets very excited every morning when we turn up to Playland Day Nursery. Would highly recommend to anyone looking
for a loving and caring nursery!

First of all the team are remarkable, they are attentive, caring and provide excellent provision for the children they look after. The facilities are well kept, with plenty of activities for the children to do. Both of my girls have attended Playland Day Nursery albeit the first was a number of years
ago and my second currently thoroughly enjoys her time here; she is clearly comfortable and confident in this environment and often runs in and that is all thanks to the lovely team. Photos are wonderful to see each day to see all those happy, smiling and inquisitive faces, along with a daily update in the individual child’s book so as parents we can see what activities the children have undertaken, what and how much they have eaten (and their nappy activities which are equally as important!) Highly recommend this nursery, you won’t be disappointed!

I’ve always had so much anxiety about sending my children anywhere to be cared for by someone other than myself. But when my oldest started reception his younger brother was really missing him and I knew he needed interaction with kids his own age. We chose Playland Day Nursery out of convenience but
honestly I feel like the universe put us exactly where we needed to be because I don’t think I could have found a better, more caring setting for our son. They truly care about these kids and look after them as if they were their own, from giving cuddles when they’re sad to checking their temperature when they seem a little off. They really pay attention to each child’s personality and demeanour and cater to them specifically; really allowing each child to flourish and grow.

I had a bad experience with a previous nursery and was worried about placing my son somewhere else but the staff were so welcoming from the start and really put my mind at ease, my son now goes 4 days a week and has an amazing day, I love hearing about all the fun things he has gotten up to not just
from my son but the staff at hand over too. I receive great support too as a parent who has started potty training, the staff at Playland Day Nursery are so helpful to help reach the milestone with me. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent and love how informed I am with my child’s day and development.

All the staff at Playland Day Nursery are welcoming, caring and go above and beyond helping with anything. The facilities at the nursery are good and the outside space is vast. My little girl has thrived going here and I wouldn't send her anywhere else.

I was dreading having to go back to work and put my son in the nursery, but the staff made the transition so easy for us both. I had a lovely feeling about it when I first went for a look and a warm welcome from all the staff. My son loves it, and I feel really happy dropping him off in the mornings,
knowing he's going to have a great full day of learning and playing. Seeing the photos each evening confirms how happy he is there. All the girls do a great job.

Fantastic atmosphere from the very moment you walk in. Very warm welcome! The staff are very dedicated to their job. My daughter settled in, in just a few days and she was only 16 months old when she started nursery. That was the best decision to make as a parent. My child is very well looked after
and learning new things and activities every day, so I can focus on my work with full peace of mind. Many thanks, Playland!

My son comes to Playland 2 days a week and absolutely loves it. He runs through the door with excitement. He absolutely loves all the staff. It's so lovely to see him so excited to go to nursery. The staff are absolutely great, friendly, caring, very welcoming and only a phone call away if you need
anything. As a first-time mum, it can be hard picking the right nursery but I'm so glad I choose Playland. The care is amazing and I couldn't thank Playland enough for the support and care they provide to my son. My little boy has come on leaps and bounds since starting in Playland. I would definitely recommend Playland to anyone.

My beautiful daughter started in Playland Day Nursery at 7 months old and she loves it so much. The staff are amazing and our parents at ease and nothing is too much trouble. My daughter is coming in so well and I know a lot of that is down to the care and attention of the staff. She is now 17 months
old and has made a best friend. It has so much for them to do including outsourcing entertainment and Christmas photoshoots.

My daughter has been attending Playland Day Nursery for almost 12 months now and she absolutely loves it. She has learnt so much since coming to Playland and has made lots of friends. I like how the staff tell parents about what the children have been doing throughout the day and we can even see pictures
on social media closed group. I’m so happy I chose this nursery for my daughter who used to be very shy and it really brought her out of her shell. Thanks everyone!

My son came here at just 8 months old and as a new mum who was extremely anxious to leave him, I was made to feel comfortable and confident straight away. My son is now nearly 2 and absolutely loves it here as well as all the staff. He has grown so much in confidence and is such a character. The best
decision we’ve made was sending him here after looking at many other nurseries. Thank you!

We are thrilled with our decision to send our little boy to Playland. Being a lockdown baby, we were very anxious about sending him to nursery as he'd never been away from us. All of the staff have worked so hard to welcome our son and make him feel safe and secure. They have been excellent in all areas
and we're so grateful for all they have done to give our little boy such a smooth transition into nursery. Love the little diary full of information about what the children have been up to and also love the photographs shared in the parent group each day. A fabulous nursery!

My second daughter has been at Playland for 4 months and loves it there. We chose to send her because our first child had such a good experience there. From the first day, she has been happy to go into nursery and has settled in very quickly (especially for a lockdown baby!). The staff are all friendly
and professional and my daughter is well cared for. The food must be good as my daughter eats it all and the activities are fun and varied. I highly recommend Playland nursery.

What can I say? Fantastic facilities, fantastic staff and they all really cared for my son and seemed genuinely sad to see him leave. I honestly believe they were a big part of making my son the young boy he is today, spending 2 days a week for 2.5 years under the care of this amazing team. I never
once felt the level of care and support was less than I would have expected. I have already booked our daughter to start at the end of August and can't wait to see her develop and grow.

I was very anxious leaving my little girl as she is my first little child. I was very emotional and the staff were great with me and still are. It has and still is hard to leave my little girl to go to work. My little girl enjoys playing here with her new friends. She has come out a lot with her confidence
towards other people as she was a lockdown baby. She has learnt a lot in a short space of time and has formed appropriate bonds. The staff go above and beyond to make sure my daughter has a good day and anything I have questions with. Probably the biggest and best place you could send your child to as it has the best range of toys for learning and lots of areas to play in. What more could you ask for?

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.990)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.990) out of 10 for Playland 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 Playland Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (284 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 287 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 Playland Day Nursery is based on 24 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 24 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.
