Our daughter has been attending Hillcity Nursery since May 2024, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From the very first day, the warm and welcoming environment made us feel confident that we had chosen the right place. The staff are absolutely wonderful- kind, attentive, and genuinely caring.
They provide excellent care and make sure every child feels safe, happy, and valued. It's clear that they are passionate about what they do, and their dedication truly shines through. What we love the most is the focus on child development. Our daughter has blossomed socially and has gained so much confidence in her interactions with others. The learning activities are engaging and well-structured, encouraging curiosity and creativity in the best way possible. We highly recommend it to any parent looking for a safe, supportive, and enriching place for their little one! Thank you, Hillcity Nursery, for everything you do!

Hi, our daughter has been with the nursery for almost 3 years now. The development she had and she will still have in this time at the nursery is magnificent. We as parents can see our little daughter slowly becoming and developing as a grown-up with her own choices. Thank you to all the staff of this
nursery, brilliant job.

I had my reservations at first but I love the way they handle my daughter and I have seen a lot of changes in her. She is more confident and speaks more with boldness. Always happy and doesn't want to go home when being picked up. Will definitely bring my other daughter to this nursery.

I am very pleased with the results I’ve seen since my son started attending the nursery, the staff are hardworking, nice and very welcoming. It’s a good nursery for every child. The new building is well-equipped for the kids. There has been a lot of improvement in my son, his speech is now clear, he
is more confident of himself, he is able to make decisions on his own. He can differentiate between what is right and wrong. The practitioners are really doing their best to make the kids learning easier and the environment safe.

The Hillcity team are amazing and really do their best for the children. The staff always give me feedback regarding my young son and nothing is too much trouble for them. They are friendly and approachable. My son has developed leaps and bounds since starting at the nursery and always comes home having
learned something new and surprises myself and dad. Would definitely recommend 10/10!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.950)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.950) out of 10 for WMB Hillcity Day 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 45 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 45 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 4.950 for WMB Hillcity Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (512 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 538 Ratings = 4.95

  • 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 WMB Hillcity Day Nursery is based on 45 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 120 number of registered child places is 24, which has been reached with 45 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.
