Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We were so anxious and nervous about putting our daughter into nursery especially being first-time parents. We must have seen around ten nurseries and GNG was the last nursery we were visiting. As soon as we started looking around the nursery and talking to the staff, we knew this was the nursery for
us. Our daughter immediately went to the staff and sat with them. She had not done this in any of the other nurseries. We are very overprotective parents and even we felt comfortable leaving her to play and make friends whilst we looked around the nursery. She was ten months old when she started and has been there a year now and absolutely loves it. She has grown and developed so much. I truly believe GNG Nursery has really helped her with her development and I cannot praise the nursery enough. The staff are so kind and caring. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Very happy with the service this nursery has provided for my daughter, when she first started she was always upset even when I rang the nursery to ask about her on daily basis they were honest but as mum always reassured me. She will be leaving in the summer. I shall miss her being at the nursery the
staff are always polite and kind and will miss them.

A thriving, safe and caring space for our daughter who started GNG at 13 months. Her confidence and interaction with other children have improved immensely and we would definitely recommend this nursery to parents.

The nursery staff are very friendly and helpful, even the manager. I would advise anyone to take their children to GNG Nursery. I would also like to add that the staff are very kind and helpful even when it is not a nursery matter. The nursery is also super clean and the play areas are great.

GNG is a fantastic nursery. I have sent both of my children there. The staff are brilliant and go out of their way to make sure children are happy and looked after. Nothing is ever too much for this nursery. My daughter absolutely loves nursery and cried when I take her home. She has so much fun there,
she has learnt so much at nursery and this shows at home in her everyday activities. I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parent.

Excellent nursery for babies and toddlers. Both my children have been attending GNG since 8 months old and have they both developed exceptionally well - around; communication and language, literacy and numbers, as well as understanding the world around us. The practitioners working at GNG are very
knowledgeable and compassionate in providing an excellent level of care and attention to individual children, including adapting to the child's needs when and where necessary to make sure they are comfortable and learning at the same time. Overall GNG is a trustworthy and passionate nursery in providing an excellent childcare service, with an experienced team of practitioners and management. Highly recommend!

Since my son started at GNG nursery he has grown and learnt so much. This has so much to do with the care and teachings he has received from GNG staff. We will miss them a great deal when he leaves in August 2020.

A truly wonderful nursery. The staff are exceptional with my son and he has formed such wonderful bonds with the staff. He is always very keen to go to nursery and for me as a parent, this is an immense relief - knowing my child is happy and content in care other than my own. I feel I am always kept
up to date with his progress and his learning journey through his log. A true compliment to the staff that my son always wants to stay longer when it's time to go home.

My first and now second child attends GNG nursery. The communication daily and log of events published to the parent/guardian is a peace of mind. My children developed so well in this environment with indoor and outdoor trips. The range of activities is fantastic, even body painting - so all of the
messy fun at nursery. The staff have always been so kind and the management so supportive over the years. Thank you.

Great nursery, helpful staff who try to be flexible to the needs of both the child and the parent. All staff from admin to cleaners to nursery nurses and management staff seem to get to know the children attending which is really lovely to see. Love that the nursery also undertake external visits, eg.
the post office, library, etc. as well as other educational establishments, such as a local museum. Most nurseries do not offer this. I also appreciate the variety of different world cuisines offered.

I have had a really bad experience at GNG, the staff are not nurturing or well trained to help children settle into nursery. The staff are really unprofessional and do not provide the best quality of care to the children. The nursery is a not for profit charitable organisation, the nursery does not
represent this ethos or values of a charitable organisation. The staff do not want to look after any child that requires attention, or support to settle in.

My child has recently joined GNG Nursery and I can already see a great development. Additionally, I can also say that my child is very happy in the environment of the nursery due to the use of the facilities and recreation, such as the spacious play area where my child can interact with other children
and enjoy playing. Finally, I would also like to mention how the staff in the nursery are very helpful and responsive with any of my requests, especially the nursery manager who is thoroughly supportive. I would recommend this nursery to any parent.

My daughter has always been full of joy and smiles. Whenever I go to pick her up. She also seems to sing a lot more now and I absolutely love it. GNG Nursery is a safe and friendly place that not only teaches children but they also help them have fun. Kudos to the staff here.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.083)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.083) out of 10 for GNG Nursery 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for GNG Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.083 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for GNG Nursery is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.083

  • 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.
