My little girl has been in this nursery now for over three years from 8-months and she loves it. With additional needs which was only noticed around 2-years-old, Ladybird Private Day Nursery have accommodated massively, are looking at training to help moving forward and have done a brilliant job, couldn't
be happier with my choice.

My daughter has been at the nursery since January 2022 and absolutely loves it. The whole team have been brilliant with her and us, from our first visit to now. They genuinely care about my daughter and are so enthusiastic about her development. They have been very supportive when we have needed to
make changes to her schedule at short notice and have taken great care of her when she's been feeling a little off colour. The activities, food and trips out are well thought of and we love the daily updates we get in my daughter's purple book. Four members of staff to name a few, are wonderful and we can't say enough great things about the nursery and the team. We're so lucky that our daughter is able to learn and grow here.

My daughter goes to this nursery and since the first day I knew it was the right place for her to go, she’s always so happy. When I pick her up I always get feedback from the staff on how her day was and I can’t thank them enough for the way they look after her. Wish more nurseries were like this.

My Twins have attended since they were nine months old (now three years old). I cannot fault the level of care they have received not only by the key workers but all support and management staff too. Management are very approachable and actively involved with the children and parents which is nice to
see. I have confidence that the key workers in every room have taken the time to know my twins as individuals and given them each the Tailored education they deserve. I am confident that my children's confidence, development and socialness are greatly down to the wonderful staff I really can not recommend them enough. The food they receive is varied and nutritious and changed on a regular basis which allows the children to explore new things which they may not have. In fact, I wouldn’t mind a seat at their table at lunchtime!

We chose this nursery for our little girl, and we are so happy we did. Our child loves it here, she's always so happy. The staff are brilliant, and our daughter loves coming to nursery. She has just moved up a class, and thank you to the lady who has looked after her since she started. We honestly made
the best decision by sending her here. We love looking through her diary, and we love how much they do with her. She has been on day trips and for walks, and she loves it, and we love seeing her photos.
We are always kept up to date with everything, and we feel happy knowing our little girl is happy.
She loves the new manager, he is lovely, always happy and approachable, and she loves it when he comes to the door to collect her and take her in.
We are always so impressed with how clean she comes home as well, even though she's been doing activities. We are happy we chose Ladybird, and we would recommend to anyone if they want to send their child here. Top ratings from us, thank you, Ladybird.

I have had my eldest child in this nursery since he was around nine months old. He's now four and loves it, it's like a second home. My youngest started in September and he is fourteen months and they've been really supportive with siblings.
They get a chance to see each other, plenty of fresh air
and plenty of really nice healthy food. The menu is varied and both of my children attempt food they wouldn't at home.
I am really happy with ladybird, they work great around my shifts too and can always accommodate our needs. I definitely recommend it.

Folly Brook Day Nursery is outstanding. My little one wakes every morning asking to go (even at a weekend!)
The food is brilliant, the activities and facilities for the kids are fab and the staff are all friendly, hard working, amazing people.
My little one has come on leaps and bounds in every
aspect since starting in Feb 2021.
I can't recommend this nursery enough.

My son has been at the nursery from five months of age and the whole experience at Ladybird has been wonderful. The staff are so kind and enthusiastic, the children very well cared for, with plenty of activities and healthy food and the organisation is excellent, catering very well for shift workers
with varying work patterns. I feel so reassured leaving my child with them.

I never thought I would have children, so when my baby boy came along I was extremely happy. When I had to return to work, leaving my son was very difficult. The staff at Ladybird made me feel reassured he was safe, secure, stimulated and happy. He's enjoying nursery and is coming home with fantastic
photographs and information regarding his day.

I have a one-year-old and two-year-old who attend this nursery three days a week since August 2016. They both settled in straight away thanks to the wonderful staff and management at ladybird. I can't say anything negative about this nursery, happy babies means happy mummy and daddy. My babies love
their key workers. The staff here go above and beyond to help me and my little ones. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. I have seen a huge development in both babies since attending here in only a few months. Not only do they do an excellent job with my children they are always willing to give me advice when I need it.

My two children have started this nursery 2weeks ago, my boy aged 1years old, and my girl aged 2 years old...
They were in childcare before Ladybirds Private Day Nursery, and they liked it but found there wasn't too many other kids. But the change I have seen with them being at Ladybirds Private Day
Nursery is AMAZING. My kids absolutely love it, I have seen a huge difference in them in 2weeks, and when it comes to the staff they are amazing!
They are so nice, and treat the kids just how any parent would!
My little man aged 1 did his first picture in the first week just scribbles lol! But now wants to do pictures with mummy every day! I'm so chuffed with the learning skill they now share with me :D I would recommend this nursery to anyone! Thanks to Ladybirds Private Day Nursery, and more so thank you to the staff at Ladybirds Private Day Nursery Parrin Lane :D XXX

My daughter has progressed with her learning skills and her communication with the other children. She is sharing, caring, and understanding what's right and wrong. My child has had toilet training, learnt her colours, numbers and memorises pictures and their meanings. I will be sorry for her to leave
in September 2016 to attend nursery. The staff have all been amazing.

My grandson is just about to leave and go on to school nursery and this is the best place I could have picked for him to go. It has been an amazing start for him, things have been slow development wise, but he has come on so much in the last 6 months. He went from baby boy to a little boy. The activities
inside and out are fabulous, the relationships between children and staff are perfect. I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone.

I can't recommended this nursery enough.


My oldest daughter attended a few nurseries before starting school, but none compare to how amazing we have found this for our youngest daughter.


Fantastic facilities, fantastic team. Lovely owner, who's friendly manner you can see in all the staff selected

to work here.


Daily feedback for our daughter, and nursery updates are just brilliant. One member of staff in the baby room is just amazing, our daughter loves her. We started her at the nursery from 4-5 months, but she made us feel completely at ease. We couldn't ask for better care. Plus the transition back to work easier.


The nursery has a great selection of foods on their menu, always a great smell coming from the kitchen. It's always been clean, with a variety of different activities set out daily.


Very highly recommend :)

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.927)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.927) out of 10 for Ladybird Private Day Nursery, Folly Brook House 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 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 4.989 for Ladybird Private Day Nursery, Folly Brook House is calculated as follows: ( (177 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.989

  • 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 4.938 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ladybird Private Day Nursery, Folly Brook House is based on 15 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.938

  • 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.
