  • Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield, Wolverhampton
Ofsted Rated Outstanding (March 2020).

Co-op Childcare Finchfield has a large, busy and modern nursery, complete with an outstanding team who are all committed to meeting your child's development and care needs. Your child will also love being able to take their nursery teddy bears home for the weekend to go on exciting adventures.

The nursery is Green Eco Schools accredited, a programme that sees children make little changes that deliver big environmental differences. They are big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained. They use 5 Little Pioneers to help share their core values with children, from encouraging them to be independent to expressing their feelings.

They have a ParentZone app which keeps parents updated on how their little one is getting on at nursery with photos, assessments and even toilet training progress! They have a growing area for food which they also end up eating and have regular visits to a local care home.

Their local history comes to life at Finchfield as their children regularly go on trips to the park near the nursery and visit historic buildings there.

Our son has had a lovely experience at the nursery, the consistency of staff in his room and the relationships he has formed with them have made us feel really confident that he is happy at nursery and progressing well. We have really appreciated the daily updates and the monthly reviews of his time
at nursery on the app, as well as face to face communications which have been personal and reassuring. Our son always leaves nursery saying “that was a great day!” which is so lovely to hear.

The nursery has been fantastic with regard to my son's progression. Being quite nervous about sending my son to nursery, they have given me the reassurance my son is in good hands and the staff are easy to talk to and do a great job.

Really pleased with our experience so far, the staff are really caring and I am really pleased with how my daughter's key worker took the time to get to know my daughter and develop a relationship with her. It is lovely to see my daughter bond with staff members and giving them cuddles. I feel the team
genuinely care about my daughter's learning and development and would recommend Co-op Childcare Finchfield to other parents.

My daughter has attended this nursery for the last 18 months, the care she has received during her time here is second to none. Her key person and the others in the room all take time to get to know each child and they are all treated as individuals. They tailor the activities to the children's interests
which aids the learning process. They also take an interest outside of nursery which I really like as I feel it offers a more holistic approach. Their outdoor space is fantastic and is utilised to its full potential which is great as my daughter loves being outdoors. One thing which sets this nursery apart from others is their office team. They are always an email or phone call away and deal with any queries efficiently. I would recommend this nursery to anybody.

My son loves going to nursery and has great fun playing with staff and other children in the gardens and within the classroom.
He has had great support and encouragement
with potty training and the app allows me to have real-time updates with his potty training and meal updates whilst I’m at work.
I would recommend this nursery to all parents as I don’t have a bad word to say!

him too!

We have had a great experience of the nursery so far, cannot thank the staff enough for how much they have brought our son along. They are always willing to go over and beyond in all aspects of his development. Compared to the last nursery we sent our son, this is head and shoulders above.

My daughter has only been at nursery for seven weeks. I am really happy with the care she has received. She has developed so much since starting and the staff have been a great help to get her onto solid foods. It is such a relief to go back to work and know my baby is being cared for so well and she
is always happy when I pick her up and the tears stopped when I drop her off after only a few weeks. The staff are amazing and wouldn’t want to send my baby anywhere else.

The staff and facilities at this nursery are excellent. Our son loves his time at nursery and has developed massively since he started last year, and the nursery team should be commended on being agile in adapting to nursery life during a pandemic.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.984)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.984) out of 10 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield 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 31 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 4.984 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield is calculated as follows: ( (367 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.984

  • 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 Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield 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 114 number of registered child places is 22.8, 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.
