Both my children have attended this nursery, the staff are great and my daughter loves attending. They get a great variety of home-cooked meals and take part in a range of activities every day. Even during the current pandemic, the staff go out of their way to care for my daughter and reassure me as
a parent. I would definitely recommend.

An excellent nursery. I can't fault it. The staff are amazing and my son loves it. He's been attending Little Rays from 13 months can't wait to go every day. Nothing is too much bother for the staff who have a genuine care for all those they look after.

My little girl has been at Little Rays Nursery Moira for over the last two years and absolutely loves it. It’s like her second wee family. The staff are fabulous and very attentive to the children.

I couldn't recommend Little Rays Moira enough. Its a home away from home for both my boys who have been there since babies.
The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to help in any way possible.
My boys are so happy and I know I've done the best for them by picking Little Rays Moira.

Our son has attended Little Ray's from 18 months and now 3. He has always loved it. The staff are very friendly and caring. Parents have access to an app to check on their child online throughout the day. Also, parents are given a keypad access code so you can enter the building at any time and check/collect
your child. Long opening hours, great outdoor areas and a very handy location. Highly recommend.

My son has been going to Little Rays in Moira from before he turned 1. He is always happy to go there in the morning and always has a great time. The staff do an incredible job looking after him and are always giving us great feedback about our son. The updates they provide throughout the day give us
peace of mind that he is doing well. The activities they do on a daily basis always provide great fun and mental stimulation for him.


The staff are great at keeping us informed of his development and also at adopting any routine we have at home. Our son is always happy to see the staff and always comes home with a smile because he has had such a great time. I couldn't ask for more!

I cannot rate Little Rays Nursery high enough. I have two boys currently attending and both have been here from a young age.
The facilities are brilliant and my boys love getting outside. Little Rays Moira has been brilliant at handling the cow's milk allergies that both my boys had, ensuring that
they were able to eat nutritious meals without missing out on treats.
Both boys love the activities and come home with lots of examples of their artwork!
The most important part of Little Rays Moira comes in the form of the staff. Every member of staff has been amazing. They have been with my boys from such a young age and make each child feel so special. From the day we visited Little Rays Moira to see if we wanted our first child to join we got such a positive vibe from the place.


I would recommend Little Rays Moira to any parent!

I cannot recommend Little Rays highly enough. From the moment my son started the nursery it has become his second home. The staff go above and beyond the expectations of any child care provider and make you feel like your child is one of their own. Such friendly staff and the kids all love the food
too!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.633)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.633) out of 10 for Little Rays Nursery Moira 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 16 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 4.906 for Little Rays Nursery Moira is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.906

  • 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 4.727 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Rays Nursery Moira is based on 16 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 110 number of registered child places is 22. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 22 = 0.727

  • 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.
