My son loves going to nursery - he has developed a great relationship with his key worker and loves being with the other babies. We get to know what he’s been up to through pictures and notifications on the app, and he is kept busy and happy with a range of fun activities. He is also given lots of cuddles,
and this makes him feel really comfortable and happy at nursery. He also brings crafts etc home, which I love.

Friendly staff. My son comes home happy every day. I was nervous to place my son in child care during the covid outbreak, but staff have put me at ease. I would recommend the nursery to friends and colleagues.

We are very happy with Singleton. My daughter loves it there, and the staff are amazingly supportive, always friendly and comforting for the children. I would definitely (and have) recommended Singleton!

The staff are lovely, and my little boy is extremely happy to come to the nursery. I particularly like the use of the app, which I can see what he has been up to and how well he is eating etc. We are very happy with everything.

My son loves attending Singleton Day Nursery and has done since he was 6-months-old. He absolutely loves the girls, especially two of them! Due to being out of work and not being able to afford for him to come to the nursery, it is heartbreaking, and I know he misses coming to see you all! Hopefully,
sometime soon, he’ll be back to cause mayhem! Would definitely recommend the girls, they are so lovely and happy! And the manager is always so helpful with queries that I have.

My son enjoyed his time in at nursery, which had a variety of activities. He has been going to Singleton Day Nursery since we moved to the area two years ago.
Staffs are helpful and caring. They made him settled.

My son has been attending this nursery for just over a year. We are extremely happy with the care and provision at this nursery. The staff are all wonderful and are brilliant with the children. Like many toddlers, my son used to be upset leaving me in the morning, he now runs to the door. I know he
really enjoys his time there, and the staff have a great rapport with him. He has a great range of food and will eat more food there than he will try at home. He brings home lovely crafts, and we see great photos on the app of the activities he takes part in. We are kept up to date of the development through the app, linking to early years development skills. In addition to this, communication at pick up and drop off is great, as well as parent meetings, and the option to communicate with staff via the app also. I feel the nursery has managed the difficulties of Covid very well, and I feel the nursery is as safe as it can be. Well done to everyone involved!

My son has been attending for just over half a year now. He is very well settled. He's too young to tell me what he thinks of the nursery, but he's always happy to go to the nursery staff in the morning and is happy when I pick him up, which is such a good and reassuring sign that he's content. Over
the last few months, the nursery has started updating us parents about the day's activities more often through the app, and I really enjoy the insight into my baby's day.

My daughter has been attending Singleton nursery for there years now, and I have always felt confident that she has been well looked after and that her wellbeing is a priority. The staff seem to really care about each child and get to know them and their needs well. My daughter loves going to nursery
and often comes home saying she's had so much fun. There seems to be a good mix of fun play and age-appropriate learning opportunities too. She also enjoys the food, which is varied and balanced.

Singleton Day Nursery has been fantastic. When my little boy started he was very nervous, and I was worried about leaving him; the staff there were fantastic. They put me at ease straight away, and my son loves going there. If you are looking for somewhere to send your child, then I would definitely
recommend Singleton Day Nursery. It’s such a warm and welcoming place, and they care so much about the children.

My son has been going to Singleton Day Nursery since he was 8-months-old. I can't praise the staff there enough for how amazing they have always been with him from starting in the baby room to now in the toddler room. Nothing is too much trouble for them, and they are so helpful with any queries or
concerns I may have. He absolutely loves going there, and I feel so comfortable knowing how well looked after he is there. The meals are always healthy and well scheduled throughout the day. He always has lots of crafts to come home with, and I am so pleased with his development; they focus on target areas for their age and keep you updated on the app along with pictures, which are great memories to keep. The app also allows me to check through the day what he has done, how much he has eaten and slept, which is really helpful. Would highly recommend sending your child to this nursery!

I looked at a few nurseries before deciding to enrol my daughter with Singleton nursery.
The facilities are great, and even with all the covid restrictions, the daily activities are fabulous! The staff have been so welcoming and friendly and always have time to talk. The app is a great way to know
what has happened in the day, and seeing photos of my daughter having so much fun is one of my favourite things.
She has made so much progress, and Singleton nursery has definitely been a large contributor to that.
I highly recommend them, for their caring, fun and family-like ethos!

It is a lovely nursery, and my daughter is very happy to attend and looks forward to her nursery days. The communication is excellent between the nursery and home, and they do a lovely range of activities. The nursery has also worked really hard to make the nursery Covid19 safe, and this really seems
to have worked well.

My little boy loves coming to Singleton nursery. All the girls are welcoming and caring towards him, and he has built lovely, trusting relationships with the staff. The nursery is clean, colourful, and very well organised. The app is great to check in on how my little boy is doing and keeps me up to
date with what he has eaten etc. When I message to check-in, I always get a nice reply and a picture, which reassures me that he is happy. The nursery set up lovely activities for the children to develop their learning, however, I would love to see more pictures of him enjoying the activities, and would love to receive more crafts and things he has done/made at nursery. I would like to know a little more about how he is progressing with his learning, eg observations. I strongly feel that my little boy is cared for beautifully at this nursery, and he is thriving as a result of going there.

I am very happy my daughter has settled well into the preschool class and looks forward to her next session. The activities conducted are well thought of and stimulating, and she has already made some lovely keepsakes. Staff are very friendly and welcoming

My daughter has been going to Singleton Day Nursery since she was 9-months-old, and she’s now just turned three. She has come on heaps and bounds since being at the nursery. My daughter enjoys it that much that we have decided to keep her there until she starts full-time school. The staff are excellent,
and I always feel confident that my little girl is being well looked after.

This is a fantastic nursery. My son has been attending since he was a year old, and his speech and confidence has grown. He has a great relationship with all the staff, and they play outside most days, weather permitting!

My daughter started at the nursery in November 2020 so has only been there three months, however, she has settled in so well. It's such a relief to know that she is in safe and caring hands. She loves going and never wants to leave when I pick her up.
I absolutely love the arts and crafts that she
comes home with, my house is now like an art gallery, which I love!
A huge thank you to all staff, especially the under two staff who have helped my daughter settle so well. You do an amazing job!
The new covid procedures that have come into place make me feel safe knowing that the nursery is clean and following guidelines. Singleton nursery is highly recommended.

My 3-year-old son has been attending Singleton since he was 18-months-old and he loves it! He’s always excited to go to the nursery and always comes home happy and full of life. He’s obviously very well looked after while he’s at nursery and that’s all I can ask for as a parent!

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.
