All the staff at the nursery are friendly and approachable. They have built and excellent rapport with my daughter and have helped with potty training by taking our needs into consideration. My daughter is offered plenty of nutritious food to eat. She is also kept entertained by a range of activities
such as crafts, music and outdoor play. I have no concerns regarding the care she receives as I have seen her develop vocabulary and numerical skills due to learning through play. When she started nursery, she was shy and clingy to only family members, now she has developed social skills with adults and children. The nursery have been excellent at accommodating our needs as I don't work set shifts so the days she attends change weekly and this has never been a problem. Some weeks she's in for 2 days and some for 4 days. I wouldn't be able to work if it wasn't for the flexibility which they offer.

The best thing we ever did for our son was to put him into this nursery. He's learned so much whilst being at Singleton and we feel he will be much more equipped for school with the stepping stone the nursery has provided. The staff work really hard and care a great deal about the children. I would
have no hesitation in recommending the nursery to anyone.

Amazing nursery. Staff are all great with my son and nothing is to much trouble. My son can be hard work sometimes going in in the mornings but the girls are always amazing with him and always helping reward his good behaviour.

Really good holiday club provision. My son attended full time at Singleton until going to school but now loves the opportunity to come back and 'visit' during the holidays. Staff are always welcoming and try to be as accommodating with dates as is possible. I like the age range of the holiday club and
can see that all ages are catered for.

Both my children have been at Singleton Day (Schoolhouse) Nursery since they were 10 months old. It is a wonderful nursery. The staff are patient and kind. They let the children be themselves. There is a supportive, nurturing and educational environment. My children are very happy there. I would definitely
recommend it.

Singleton Day Nursery is a fantastic place for young children to start their learning right up to proper school age. My daughter started there at 6 months old and stayed until she started Reception at 4 years old. We still use it now for the Playscheme in the holidays. The staff are friendly and fantastic
with the children. My daughter loved it there and learnt so much in preparation for proper school. I would 100% recommend to anyone, in fact, I have already.

I am generally happy with the standard of service that the nursery provides. My daughter has flourished in her 2 years at the nursery and always has a tale to tell about the exiting range of activities offered on a daily basis.

Generally, the nursery is Fab! And the staff are great.


They need to resolve the method of opening the door, especially during busy times. We understand that the staff cannot leave our children, so maybe there should be a camera and button in the office or face recognition and a card like you get

in some gyms. The bell could be used for visitors or one-offs.


Feel the latest price increase is a little excessive.

I would highly recommend this company to friends and colleagues.
My son is 8 and loves going to the playscheme in the school holidays he has made lots of new friends also likes the day trips that are arranged and the fun days where they make things and have parties.
I would be really stuck for the
school holidays without this friendly caring, lovely ladies that help the children as much as they can.
It's also great for the children to get outside when the weather is dry in the garden to burn off some of their energy.

I have nothing but praise for this nursery.
My child enjoys herself greatly here - she has made many friends and loves the staff. It will be a shame when she eventually leaves, and our second will certainly go here as well in the future.

I relocated to Swansea and was worried my three year old son would not adjust to all the changes we had gone through. The nursery was more than I imagined with great ease of registration and make the adjustment smooth. The staff were loving and caring and supportive and helped us tackle potty training
which we had struggled with for months. The cook accommodated our request for his meat/chicken meals with ease. I can not recommend this nursery enough. My son is in an environment where he is valued and helped to realise his potential and is relaxed.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.803)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.803) out of 10 for Singleton Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.803 for Singleton Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (323 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 380 Ratings = 4.803

  • 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 Singleton Day Nursery is based on 31 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 118 number of registered child places is 23.6, which has been reached with 31 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.
