We have recently moved to the area and our 18-month-old son has just started a day a week at Singleton. We have been really impressed by the professionalism of the staff, as well as their caring approach to our son. They put a lot of thought into planning the daily activities on offer and are helpful
and proactive when dealing with queries and questions. Great experience so far. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

We have been really impressed with Singleton Day Nursery. Our son has only been going to the nursery for three months and found the transition unsettling and upsetting. However, the staff have been incredibly friendly, supportive and caring towards our little boy and reassuring to us. We think the app
is amazing and love seeing photos of our son playing throughout the day or seeing how he has slept/eaten. The staff are extremely professional and have always maintained good lines of communication, and have dedicated time to us at handovers. Our only slight criticism is the lack of observations and photos (we have had 1 obs in 3-months).

I and my children love Singleton Day Nursery. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The girls take the time to help the children achieve and reach their milestones. My children are always very excited to attend. They have access to wide and varied educational activities whilst at creche, as well
as both structured and free play. There is also an outdoor play area too. Food provided, as well as an app, which allows access to their day, as well as communication with staff.

I feel that staff at Singleton Day Nursery are very approachable, who provide a really good, safe environment. I also feel the standard and quilty of care is second to none. They ensure that my child keeps active and stimulated by learning through play and interaction with others. What I also found
impressive was the infection control measure put in place by staff to keep everyone safe during the Covid-19 pandemic. I would recommend this nursery to anyone!

Our child started nursery during the first lockdown, and I was particularly anxious about this. Although, as the staff are so loving and welcoming, our child settled in extremely well. Our child is always excited to go to nursery, and particularly loves her key worker. She is very settled and content.
We enjoy seeing all the fun activities she gets up to, and can clearly see Singleton Day Nursery has been excellent for her development.

Singleton Day Nursery had been amazing for the last four years since we put our son in their care. We are happy with the care and their flexibility to accommodate emergency/extra sessions of which are very convenient for us working parents. Staff are amazing, friendly and caring. The app has been really
good at putting our mind at ease, knowing what he's been doing while being there. Excellent service.

Our daughter joined the under 2's at Singleton 4-months ago. It offers our daughter a warm and nurturing environment where we feel she is safe. We were allocated a key worker as a point of contact, and all the nursery staff got to know us and our daughter quickly, and are always friendly and helpful.
We have regular updates vis the app each day and were allowed a telephone conversation this month to discuss our daughter's progress. The nursery offers homecooked food daily, and we are confident that she is being introduced to health and nutritious options each day. The management team are also very helpful and accommodating. Overall, we know our daughter is happy and well looked after, and we could not recommend it to any parent highly enough.

Our son really enjoys nursery, and since joining earlier this year (August 2020), he has settled really well. This is mainly down to the excellent care that his key worker has provided. She honestly has been superb in making him feel settle. My son is a fussy eater, and the nursery always tries the
menu options with him, but if he doesn't eat it, they will offer toast/yoghurts etc, it could be improved if they could tailor the hot meals though. One other improvement would be more communication on how he is getting on from an educational point.

I have been sending my little boy to Singleton Day Nursery since May of 2018 and he has thrived there. He's now of an age to be starting school and he is going to miss nursery so much when he eventually leaves. I get asked every morning if its nursery day and his keyworker is mentioned all the time
at home. He really loves them! The communication is fantastic and they are really flexible, which has been really important this year especially. The Famly app has been a great addition to the nursery too. Thanks all!

After going back to work after maternity leave, I was very apprehensive about my daughter going to nursery at 11 months during this strange time, especially not being able to go inside with her at all. She did cry a few times, and I was worried about her settling in but she has settled amazingly well.
I'm so happy with all the girls there and would be happy putting her in for more days if needed as I know how happy she is. Such a weight off my shoulders!

A very personal and flexible service catering for our individual child's needs and preferences.
All of the staff are very friendly and caring and the food is excellent. It is all freshly prepared and the chef is lovely. The facilities are good and children are encouraged to play outdoors which is important
to us. Would highly recommend.

My little girl has been going to Singelton Day Nursery for three years now and she really enjoys going. The nursery staff are brilliant with her, very friendly and enthusiastic. For the last few months, the nursery have been picking her up from school in the mornings which has been a godsend.

Staff are very friendly and caring. They can report back in your child which gives that reassurance you need. They are more than happy to help on issues that arise at home or in school e.g trouble going to the toilet. I fell at ease knowing my son is being taken care of to such a high standard.

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.
