A key-carer system enables the nursery to ensure a planned curriculum is tailored to the needs of an individual child. Key-carers ensure that each individual child is supported on a day to day basis and aims to develop a bond with the child and help them to feel safe, protected and cherished while they are away from home.

I am really happy that my daughter is here.
She has a good relationship with her carers.
She has learnt a lot. She always mentions what happens.
Sometimes, would be great if somebody checked her after she uses the toilet. We have had quite a lot of issues with that.

I'm overall pleased with the nursery.
I can see that he is progressing well with lots of help from the staff.
He is always well looked after and every time I ask him if he's had a good day, he says yes.
As long as he's happy I am.

I love this nursery and since my son started when he was one I was nervous. My worries were soon cleared up. This is because of the wonderful staff and care that is given to the children. All staff have been very kind and have helped my child settle into the nursery. The daily updates are great. It
is always nice to see what they have been doing during the day. There is good communication between home and nursery and feedback is very useful. I am very grateful to all staff who have been amazing. Thank you!

Always been made to feel very welcome from day one, the staff in the baby room are fantastic as are management. My son initially struggled with the new routine of nursery life but now he loves it and is always happy when I pick him up. Very happy that I picked this nursery.

The staff are amazing, always providing a high standard and friendly atmosphere. The teaching and learning is amazing. My daughter will come home and tell me what she has been learning about in the setting. She is eager to go every day and will ask 'is it nursery today?'.

Have always liked the way staff have been taking care of my daughters. They are very professional and caring. I'm happy to see my child always happy when I come to pick her up at the end of the day, she is always smiling.
With two particular staff members, I've always put my trust in their hands as
they are second parents to my children, as they get to spend more time with them while I'm at work.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.946)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.946) out of 10 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Clayton 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.946 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Clayton is calculated as follows: ( (192 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.946

  • 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 Tiddlywinks Nursery Clayton is based on 17 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4, which has been reached with 17 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.
