Overall good experience. Feel safe and secure by leaving my child there. The nursery is near my home. So commuting is short. Love the app. Got regular updates about their meals and sleep. Helps make them disciplined and confident.

Nursery staff members are lovely, kind and caring!
Office staff/management is extremely poor! Gives the wrong amounts to pay, waits till builds up then chases for money!
2nd year in a row now! has caused extreme stress after I asked well before September that they sort the invoices properly this academic
year.
By far the worst nursery I've dealt with

Reply from Jess Rowe, Manager at Singleton Day Nursery

At Singleton Day Nursery we are extremely proud of our staff, they are the ones that make a difference to our family's nursery experience.
Parent views are critical to ensuring we meet our high expectations and we want everyone who uses the nursery to be very happy with the service we provide. With the support of Schoolhouse's management team, as leaders we work together to reflect and respond to identified concerns in an open and honest way. We take all feedback seriously and the nursery has a very rigorous procedure to respond to any parental query.
Our focus is maintaining excellent staff interactions and parent relationships- and for our nursery to be the first choice.

Our daughter loves it there, she is always quite happy to jump out of our arms into the arms of any of the staff that open the door, so we know she feels safe and comfortable with all of the staff.
I cannot say what happens during her time there but she always comes home mentally and physically tired
so they must fill the day with challenges and activities. They are a lovely team and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the nursery to anyone.

We decided on Singleton after seeing most of the nurseries in Swansea. As soon as I walked in, the setting was so clean, tidy, well looked after and the staff were so friendly. My son has only been coming to Singleton since October, he was really nervous going in and cried a lot which broke my heart.
In the short few weeks he’s been in with the toddlers, the staff have been outstanding! They have taken the time to learn about his likes and dislikes and really showed compassion for my son when it came to his first time leaving me. The staff have been so amazing in communicating how he is on a daily basis and putting my mind at ease. The manager has been so accommodating with the days and trial sessions that he has done, she has been outstanding at communicating and ensuring that the transition has been as easy as possible. I also cannot thank the staff in toddlers enough! They've gone above and beyond to ensure that my son, and myself, are both at ease with him being there.

My daughter has been coming here for 2 months now and is thriving. The staff are so caring, honest and smiley. Their use of the app is so good - I love getting photos of my daughter in the day. There is such a focus on using the outdoor space when it’s dry. The toys are all immaculate and the staff
are so welcoming. My daughter has learned loads of new songs already and has settled so well!

My son has been attending the nursery for nearly four years now, and we are so happy with the care and attention he is having at the nursery.
All staff members are kind, calm, helpful and professional; I always feel that he is in very safe hands while at the nursery. We especially enjoy the regular
updates from his key worker, who always keeps us updated on his day and learning progress.
I also wanted to mention how helpful and friendly the management team are, always on hand to deal with any enquiries that we have.
It really is a fantastic nursery, and sending our son there is the best decision we ever made.
Thank you, everyone!

Our 2-year-old is very enthusiastic about attending Singleton Day Nursery. He frequently tells us about all the things he's been up to, including painting, washing baby dolls, riding bikes and counting. Lovely staff. Staff happy to use reusable nappies. I feel safe leaving our child here whilst both
parents are at work, knowing he is well cared for and happy.

My son started at Singleton Day Nursery in November from being at another nursery. And honestly, the staff helped him with his transition flawlessly. He took to all the girls and loves them, as the girls love him. I never pick him up with a bad word is said. They say he always makes them laugh and smile.
His speech is now brilliant, and he is starting his counting and everything. Turning two in March ‘23, he is just the smartest little boy ever. Not a day goes past when I am not glad I made the move for him to Singleton Day Nursery.

My son has attended since December. Notice since he started, he has flourished with his speech and talking more clearly. Staff are always happy, friendly and so supportive. The app they use is great, as can see what the children are doing, so feel great knowing they are getting taken care of and shown
the fun they have. Best nursery by far.

We have been really pleased with our experience at Singleton Day Nursery. The staff have been really kind and supportive and have worked with us to help our daughter settle in. The app is used really effectively to share information, and it is easy to keep in touch with staff throughout the day if needed.
It has taken our daughter a while to settle in, but the staff have been so caring and committed to helping her find her feet. We would definitely recommend it!

My son attends Play Scheme at this day nursery; he has never said he doesn’t want to go in. The staff are all brilliant, and I love how they take time to give every parent a full and detailed handover at pick-ups. That means so much. He is very pleased when a lot of his school friends attend Play Scheme
too, but equally, he has lots of fun when they don’t. He is especially fond of one member of staff, and she’s been made aware of this.
I can highly recommend this place and will continue using it for half term. Thank you for all your hard work, everyone.

My son has been attending singleton nursery for almost a year now. As a single mum with a little 2-year-old really busy boy, I have struggled with him. Since starting at Singleton, I have noticed a massive change in him, and I honestly feel this is the best decision I’ve ever made for him. He absolutely
loves going to the nursery to play and see all of his friends. I know the team genuinely cares about him, and that’s all I can ask for. The constant updates on the app make me feel at ease when I’m at work also. Everyone I’ve met has such a friendly and approachable personality. His speech and behaviour have improved also since starting there.
I want to give a special shout-out to his key worker, he absolutely adores her, and every morning, he asks for her. She is kind, caring, understanding, and such a beautiful soul and Singleton nursery is so lucky to have her as a team member. I will forever be grateful to her. We love her to bits, thank you.

Excellent daycare setting. Staff are kind, approachable and caring. Care is mixed with learning and play in a seamless manner. In the preschool room, staff work with children towards Government recommended targets in line with school settings. The meals provided appear healthy and nutritious.

I've had a great experience with the nursery - love receiving regular feedback and updates through the app. I've changed days recently, and the whole process was so easy to arrange. My little boy loves going in and obviously enjoys all the food he's given!
I'd love there to be an update on who's who
staff wise, as many of us that had children join during Covid have never got to meet everyone properly. Everyone is fantastic; I just feel bad I don't know everyone's names!

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.
