Absolutely love sending my daughter to this nursery. She enjoys every day she is there and she can't wait to go back.
The staff are so friendly and lovely, I feel very comfortable leaving her in their care.
Unfortunately, the nursery had a major issue was unable to open after Christmas but all the
staff pulled together to help continue childcare and supported working parents as much as they could.
They also supported the children in the transition of different schools and teachers.
I can't praise or thank you enough.
You are doing a great job ladies. Thank you.

I was worried how my daughter would be after returning from a long 3 weeks off for Easter. After a few incidents of crying, she has settled in lovely and that's down to the fabulous staff. My daughter now looks forward to nursery on her days.

Since my daughter has started at Daisy Chains, she has grown vocally. I was worried about her speech as for a 2-year-old, she wasn't saying many words, but in the time that she has been at nursery, she has advanced lots, she is now singing and telling me things she wants. I am very pleased.

I would like to express how brilliantly I think the nursery has got back into a routine again after closure due to flooding. The children are all settled in as the staff always go out of their way for children and parents alike.

My son has settled into nursery brilliantly from starting and always enjoyed his time with his friends and teachers. He has learnt lots of new songs and is such a happy little boy. The nursery is extremely clean and tidy. All staff are polite and lovely and genuinely take the time to talk about any
concerns or just about their day and activities. Brilliant nursery and looking forward to my little girl coming in the New Year.

My experience with my son's nursery has just been amazing. He's come on in leaps and bounds since starting and I have never for a second doubted that he's in safe hands when I leave him. The staff are fantastic and are happy to talk when I pick him up, telling me all about his day. Couldn't have picked
a better place to send him. Very impressed with the service we've received.

My son recently started at Daisy Chains Nursery. He is 2 years old and settled in straight away. All the staff are welcoming and he loves going to play with all the children. There is a variety of toys and even a sensory space where the children can lay down.

My son has attended Daisy Chain for the past 2 years now. When he first started at Daisy Chain he was very quite and shy. The staff soon brought him out of his shell. He is now a very talkative, polite, well spoken, well mannered little boy. My son was able to count to ten when he started Daisy Chain,
the staff have helped progress his counting in every session. I cannot praise the staff any more than I do to anyone that will listen. I tell any one who has kids about Daisy Chain as it does give the children the best start in life.

The nursery staff are friendly and welcoming. They always have time to debrief parents of their little ones daily progress. They make make both parents and children feel valued. Most importantly, their impact and contribution in raising the children is clearly visible.

I am very pleased with Daisy Chain nursery. My daughter was very clingy with me before she started here and has settled in very well and surprisingly quickly! Her key worker is brilliant and tells me everything about my child's day. She is forming a good relationship with her. I would definitely recommend
this nursery!

The staff are wonderful with her & so friendly to all parents, they have so much time for everyone, it's a lovely environment for children. I would definitely
recommend Daisy Chain Middleton as a perfect pre school.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.307)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.307) out of 10 for Daisy Chain Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 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 4.936 for Daisy Chain Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (90 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 4.936

  • 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 4.371 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Daisy Chain Pre-School is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 70 number of registered child places is 14. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 14 = 0.571

  • 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.
