Everyone is super nice, and communication is great. We feel very confident he is loved and cared for there. He is really happy to go in and has made lots of friends. Outside could be messier for my blood, but it's got more outdoor space than some nurseries.

All the staff are amazing. Not only very attentive to my children's needs but also understanding of sudden changes to childcare issues. I feel the staff take a keen interest in my children and comply with what I find important, such as nap times and routines. I also feel it’s an extra safe place to
send my children for various reasons, one being I had to give the children's password or another staff member had to verify me as it's normally my partner the staff meet. My children always seem happy there, and the app keeps me updated with the various things they do! I just wish the “book” of artwork and moments etc, came back, as I feel that I had much more artwork in it than what’s my children bring home.

My child loves being at Singleton Day Nursery and the staff who look after her there. She is almost 2 1/2, and her development and growing confidence is in large part down to what she does on a day to day basis at nursery. She has made friends there and really enjoys all the activities. The staff who
look after her are special and do a first-class job, including the chef who cooks some exotic meals. As a result, we, as parents, are reassured to know that she is safe and well looked after there.

Singleton has been fantastic from when our little one was 5-months-old, now he is 4-years.
He thoroughly enjoys attending.
They even do school picks up for me, and now he attends a playscheme in the school holidays.
Singleton is like our extened family.

My daughter arrives at nursery every day and is very happy to go inside; she is greeted with a big smile, and a welcoming environment always awaits her. Whilst she is full of life and no doubt keeps everyone on their toes, I have the utmost confidence that everyone is looking after her with love and
care. I do really feel like it is a home from home for her. I also really like the family app and the ability to check in to see how her day is going. The range of food is brilliant, and I am very grateful that I know she has had nutritious cooked meals during the day, so I don't need to worry in the night. On the weekend, she must be so disappointed as snack time definitely doesn't consist of homemade spinach and artichoke muffins. The range of activities is brilliant, and developmentally, I can see the benefits it gives my daughter. I have no hesitation in recommending the nursery to anyone.

My boy loves attending this nursery. He has been able to continue developing and seeing his friends throughout the difficult times we all are currently facing. The staff are fab and are so caring, it really does make our lives better knowing our boy is well looked after and his company enjoyed. He does
really enjoy going and sings some of the learned songs on the days he does not attend whilst with us on the weekend. January has seen him convert from nappies into ‘big boy’ pants. A process that is tricky and takes a lot of patience. This has been encouraged and supported by the nursery staff, who have always been positive about his progress, even if it meant additional changes and accidents along the way. He is nearly there and seems to have conquered his fear of going there down to their efforts and support!

The staff have been very friendly and nurturing towards my son since he first started nearly a year ago. They have helped him with his speech, mobility and using day to day objects properly. My son enjoys going to the daycare three days a week, where he makes lovely pictures to bring home.

We have been using Singleton Day Nursery for over 3-months, and we have noticed a huge difference in our daughter's development. The staff are friendly and caring. Our daughter loves going in and has so much fun. The nursery is beautifully presented inside, with plenty for our daughter to do/play with.
Couldn't thank them enough!

My baby has settled into the nursery so well. He is always happy to go to the staff. The staff are extremely caring and kind. I feel happy knowing my baby is well looked after and settled when he is there. Also, love the app keeping up to date with your child's day.

My experience with Singleton Day Nursery is all positive. All the staff are friendly, and my child loves attending every week. I love the app, which lets me know everything that my child has done throughout the day.

This is the second time using Singleton Day Nursery. My eldest son loved it, and it’s now time for my youngest. However, to say times have changed is an understatement, with the world still in the grips of a pandemic, my anxiety about leaving my baby to go back to work was more than high. I didn’t
need to worry! Familiar faces were there to greet me, and although it was a strict drop off at the door policy, I trusted the staff. A new and very welcome addition is the app that the nursery uses. It allows me to track my babies day with everything from naps and food consumption recorded to nappy changes and if cream was applied. Each child has a key worker, and instead of dividing the children up in a 1,2,3 fashion, the staff let the children pick who they are naturally drawn towards. I would 100% recommend this nursery with no hesitations. Thank you to the manager and the rest of the team.

Our experience of this nursery has been only positive. Lovely group of people working there, who are great with the kids and put time into effort into engaging them with fun and creative activities. Also really handy/flexible for working parents thanks to long opening hours, including over holidays.

Everyone that I have met so far has been helpful. When I came to view the nursery, before my child started attending, I was impressed with the resources the nursery had available. Once my child has started, I was impressed again with how much the staff seem to care. My child has nothing but good things
to say about the staff and other children.

I notice a lot of difference with my daughter's skills and confidence. She manages to speak some full sentences in English which was hard in the beginning knowing that she or we came from a non-English country. I also notice that she enjoys going to school, she is more vocal how she miss her friends
and teachers. Overall, I highly recommend Singleton Day Nursery.

The whole team at Singleton Day Nursery deliver an awesome environment and experience that makes our two year old daughter happy and enthusiastic to attend and gives such an enjoyable input to her excitingly rapid development. As a family we can’t recommend this nursery more. We can happily rate the
areas as excellent, which we have been able to personally experience, I’m sure activities are excellent too, however in these closed door times I feel we can only fairly review as scored, without just becoming a box ticking exercise.

My two-year-old daughter has attended the nursery since she was a baby and is currently in the toddler section. She absolutely loves it there and always looks forward to going every week. I cannot speak highly enough of all the friendly staff, and I feel they always go that extra mile. The children
have a great varied range of activities in the creche, and the food they are given is healthy and cooked fresh on the premises. Overall, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this creche to others.

They have been amazing with our son; he's always happy, loves the staff, and is leading and able to bring the new words and games home. Our son always comes home happy, and has enjoyed his day, has a lot to tell us. Gives us peace of mind that so well-loved there and making friends and growing.

Our eighteen month old has been attending the nursery for over eight months now and we are so glad that we chose this nursery for her. They always have great fun with imaginative crafts and activities and the staff are very friendly and approachable. Our daughter loves the food provided and it’s all
home cooked and child friendly. Additionally, it’s also very easy to get in touch with management and they always respond quickly to any queries. We really think that the nursery and it’s lovely staff have helped our daughter develop and grow in confidence.

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.
