My daughter has been going to Gower Nursery since she was 1 year old and 2 years on, as a parent, I have no concerns from when I drop her off in the morning to being picked up in the evening. My daughter enjoys going and with the family app, I'm able to see my daughter's routine throughout the day.

Both of my children have been attending Gower Day Nursery since 2021. All of the staff are so kind and attentive, we have never had any issues and both my children have loved and still do love Gower Day Nursery. My daughter who has now left often talks about nursery and how she misses it.

The best thing we have done is putting our child in Gower Day Nursery. From the moment he joined, we've been welcomed into the family - the team have worked so unbelievably hard to accommodate him and work with him through his specific needs. We are kept up to date through the family app which gives
us peace of mind throughout the day - we can see when he has napped and what he's eaten throughout the day so we can keep him in his routine when back home. I can't thank the girls enough for all they've done for us so far. The facilities are lovely and he is fed so well, I can't recommend the nursery enough.

My daughter has been going to Gower Day Nursery since last October and she absolutely loves it there. The staff are fantastic, keep you updated with everything and I feel very at ease when she's there. It's brought her on in leaps and bounds, very happy!

The nursery team are caring, attentive and does a fantastic job ensuring my child is settled, happy and content. The menu is homemade and healthy with lots of variety. The team share daily photos of my child smiling and laughing, enjoying activities and having lots of fun. The team provide a comfortable
routine for my child but are flexible when it's needed. They are professional, supportive and knowledgeable, providing insight and practical tips for dealing with various baby/toddler phases when asked. Most importantly, my child loves the nursery and all the team.

The nursery management and staff are great, our son is so happy attending nursery and the activities they organise every week are aligned to support their learning ready for full-time school. Even when we required extra support to add our son in for an extra day, they were really accommodating and supportive.

Gower Day Nursery are brilliant with the children and my boy loves going there.
Always an issue when I pick him up as he never wants to leave!
They constantly have activities both educational and fun which he can't wait to tell us about when he gets home!
Above all, I feel happy that he is kept safe
with their strict security standards for gaining access to the building.

I am so happy we chose to send our daughter to Gower Day Nursery.
My daughter loves going to nursery. She goes in with a smile every morning and is always playing happily when I pick her up. I ask her if she had a fun day and her answer is always yes.
All of the staff are always so friendly, polite
and helpful.
The range of activities she does is amazing, and I get a photo of my daughter doing the activities on the app every single day she is there.
The staff upload everything to the app which is amazing. Nappy changes, specific nap times, photos and how much she has eaten of each part of every meal (99% of the time she has eaten everything, which says a lot about the chef and meal choices they offer)
Whenever the staff are unsure about anything, they ring me straight away.
I can honestly say, that having my daughter at this nursery makes it so easy to be able to go to work and not worry about her, because I know she is in safe, caring hands. Thank you all for doing such an amazing job.

I cannot thank the staff at Gower Day Nursery for the care they provide to my daughter. She has developed into a really happy, confident and curious little girl since she has been attending. Her confidence and her skills have come on leaps and bounds since she started and she's become such a well-rounded
child thanks to the nursery. Every time they open the door in the morning she is full of smiles and it's so lovely to see how connected she is with the staff. They truly are a very caring group and nothing is ever too much trouble and they put my mind at ease answering all my questions no matter what they were. They pride themselves on a high-quality facility and high-quality staff. The app is brilliant too, such an easy way to keep up to date with her day and it helps me not to worry about her at all while she's there. I cannot recommend the nursery enough and I wish there was an option for more than 5 stars!

My eldest daughter attended Gower Day for around 3 years and once she settled there she absolutely loved it and the days she wouldn't be there she would sometimes ask to go. She built such a wonderful relationship with some of the staff there it was lovely to see. They offer a school pick-up service
which was so convenient as I didn't have to worry about school pick-ups on the days she was booked into Gower Day. Our youngest child has recently started at Gower Day and is already bonding with some of the staff that she sees on a regular basis. The activities that the staff do with the children are always aimed at promoting development and I really like that each week there is a curriculum of activities tailored to each age group. As parents, we would highly recommend Gower Day to anyone looking for a childcare provider.

Such lovely, friendly, kind and caring staff. I know our child is completely safe at nursery and is very well looked after. He's been at nursery for almost 1 year and has learnt so much! From day one, all the staff knew his name which made me feel comfortable leaving him there. The days are always full
of different activities to keep him busy and happy. At the end of the day when I collect him, the staff are always happy to talk about his day and how he's been which is really reassuring. Also, the app is updated throughout the day so you can see how your child is getting on, it's lovely to see photos of them playing happily!

Our son has had the most wonderful time at Gower Day Nursery since starting at the age of 1. He is now 3 and still thoroughly enjoys all the activities they provide. The staff are amazing-he's so attached to them and talks about them constantly! The food they offer is varied and appealing, far more
so than anything he attempts to eat at home.
There is also a fantastic wrap-around service from the school he attends on the days he's at nursery, which has been incredibly helpful. We will be so sad when our son finishes at the end of August to start full-time school, but they've made the transition easier for us knowing our daughter will be starting her own journey with them soon!
We would highly recommend Gower Day Nursery!

We are over the moon with how our son has settled into Gower Day Nursery. We had only ever heard great things about the nursery so knew it was the right place for him. The staff are all fantastic, friendly and most importantly caring they always go above and beyond the daily updates are great and really
informative.
His learning, speech and confidence have come on so much since attending the nursery this is so lovely to see.
Thank you for all your hard work it really doesn't go unnoticed.

Both of our children and myself love Gower Day Nursery. We feel very comfortable with our children going there knowing they're being looked after and supported on every visit. I love the use of the app with the updates we receive throughout the day. Also, the admin side of the nursery is exceptional
and can't be faulted. We feel like Gower Day Nursery is an extension of our house/family for our kids. The staff are wonderful which makes it the perfect nursery.

My daughter has been attending Gower Day Nursery since May 2024 and currently attends three days a week. She thoroughly enjoys going to nursery and always arrives and leaves with the biggest smile on her face. The staff are very professional, attentive and caring and communication via app is superb.
As parents we enjoy the regular updates of what she has been up to throughout the day! we would enjoy more photos but understand the staff are very busy! As parents it is a weight off our minds that we are able to leave our daughter in the best care and know that she is being well looked after, educated and cared for. We couldn't be happier with the choice of nursery for our daughter and will continue to recommend Gower Day Nursery to all our family and friends!

My son has been at the Gower Day Nursery for 2 afternoons per week since September. I have been very pleased with the care he has received. Initially, I was anxious about him starting nursery but the nursery managers and staff were understanding and supportive and sent me photos of him having a fun
time and playing, which made me feel better. Everyone at the nursery seems to have genuine affection for my son and they are always pleased to see him. At nursery, my son enjoys a variety of activities and I often receive photos of him playing outside, playing inside, playing with different toys and enjoying sensory play. The nursery is supportive of my son's weening and encourage him to try different flavours and textures. There have been a few times my son has had to go to nursery while he has been ill and I am very pleased to say the nursery have looked after him brilliantly, sent me updates and given him medication (with my consent) to keep him comfortable until I could pick him up.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.864)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.864) out of 10 for Gower Day Nursery Ltd 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.864 for Gower Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (199 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.864

  • 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 Gower Day Nursery Ltd is based on 19 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 37 number of registered child places is 7.4, which has been reached with 19 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.
