Absolutely wonderful nursery. I viewed 3 local nurseries and nothing compared to Diggle Day. The staff are so creative and full of fun ideas, my little one had never been away from me and I was so worried about leaving her. The nursery was so helpful, with lots of feedback and support. Couldn't recommend
this nursery enough!

We have loved Diggle Day Nursery, so much so, that our third child will soon be starting! They get to know every child as an individual and provide so much care and guidance. Learning is focused on each child's interests, and because of that, we have seen our older two flourish. Fantastic provision
with a family feel!

My little girl has attended since 14 months old, she is now 3. Staff are attentive, they have supported my child's learning and feedback regularly. My daughter has thrived here and we would recommend this nursery to anyone. Overall, a nurturing, homely and supportive setting.

The best nursery! The staff are very knowledgeable and confident in their roles. My little boy has settled so well, you can see that his confidence and independence come on so much since going. He is thriving. The staff will also set up activities around your child's interests in their focus weeks,
and you will get a detailed write-up and photos on how your child has done at the end of the week. You will get regular updates in the day, which is a bonus, seeing what your child has been getting up to. The staff will always give you an in-depth handover when you pick up your child on how they have got on in the day.

We have had such a lovely experience so far with Diggle Nursery. Our daughter has been attending for nearly a year and her speech and social skills have come on leaps and bounds in that time. She goes in happily each morning which is a testament to the relationships she's built with the staff. The nursery
regularly comes up with new and interesting activities for the children. I have no concerns about how well she is cared for and the staff genuinely seem fond of her. We receive updates each day on her food, sleep etc and photos now and again too! It's such a relief to find somewhere where we feel she is safe and well looked after.

My child has always enjoyed this nursery, they go in happy and come out happy. The nursery is always willing to help with any issues we may have and very supportive of me and my child. Fabulous nursery, very excited to see my child progress through until school.

The best nursery! We literally have nothing bad to say about Diggle Day Nursery! We have two children that attend the setting and both of them are absolutely thriving. They love to attend nursery and this makes us so happy. The staff are so accommodating and make you feel like a member of the family
instantly, their relationships with every single one of the children is so heartwarming and personal. The nursery is fantastic at parent involvement with stay and plays, Christmas shows etc, but also at an every day level when they give really good in-depth handovers. The food that is served at nursery is excellent and smells delicious every day when we drop off. We just can't thank every single member of staff enough for the care and attention they give to our children!

Our little one is thriving at Diggle Day Nursery. We couldn't ask for more from the staff who are all friendly, kind and confident which reflects onto the children. There are always creative activities for children to get involved with and a focus on playing outside in the fresh air. The nursery has
a real family feel, our little one gets to try all kinds of different and delicious foods, and there are lots of opportunities for parents to get involved through stay and plays, regular updates on your child's daily routine and things they are enjoying in the app. We are really pleased we decided to send our little one here.

Brilliant nursery, really pleased with all aspects of it. My little boy is very happy here. Love the home cooked meals they get and friendly, caring staff. The staff put great effort into planning the days for the children, particularly around their focus weeks.

Diggle Day Nursery have been amazing! I was worried how little man would cope with nursery as he was a covid baby and missed a lot of the early socialisation, but they have been amazing - we are sad to be leaving in September as he makes his way into primary school but I know the team at Diggle Day
have helped me prepare him for what lies ahead. They were fantastic in terms of help and support, monitoring and keeping me informed. They are aware of his needs and always act in a way that will support his development and keep him on track with his milestones.

A vast array of toys and resources are available for the children to keep the children occupied and enhance development.
Displays and
nursery lay out are often updated.
A fabulous early years setting.

We are we so pleased with how well our daughter has developed in confidence and settled and put it down to the commitment and strong relationships she has built with the staff members. Diggle day nursery has wonderful friendly feel and the passion the staff show is clearly natural. There are always
lots of exciting resources and opportunities.

This is such a fantastic nursery, I couldn't recommend it enough. The staff are so amazing with the children, they show such genuine interest and care for your child. The nursery has so much to offer and such a wide variety of play and educational equipment for the children and it's all so well maintained
compared to previous nurseries I've looked at. They are always doing different creative activities with them that every day is varied, sometimes it will be baking, painting, crafts or something outdoors. I love this nursery and so does my little boy!

My Son has attended the setting since he was 18 months old and I can highly recommend it. I have seen such a change in his development and all the staff are so loving and attentive. It's so wonderful to take him to nursery and see him running in and hugging the staff knowing he is well looked after
and cared for in a setting with amazing resources.
The outdoor area is fantastic with plenty of space and lots to do.
The staff are always there to talk to and willing to help anyway they can. Cannot thank them enough.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.550)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.550) out of 10 for Diggle Day Nursery & Education Centre Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 11 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 4.977 for Diggle Day Nursery & Education Centre Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.977

  • 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 4.573 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Diggle Day Nursery & Education Centre Ltd is based on 11 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.2 = 0.573

  • 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.
