My eldest child has just left the nursery after 3 wonderful years and his brother started in March 2020.
The staff are incredible, they are completely child-focused and always look for ways to encourage and support the children. The facilities encourage learning and development and they all benefit
greatly from the upgraded outside play space. Would highly recommend to all.

My child has come on leaps and bounds since joining the nursery, its like a home from home. Every staff member takes the time to know my child and support her in the best way. She always comes home happy and loves going into nursery. She has never cried from day one. The garden is fantastic such a
lovely space for all the children to access. I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone.

I have had dealings with the nursery for 7 years now (with 2 children). Both of my children have had fabulous experiences and my son’s transition to school was seamless due to the confidence he had gained from Rogers Burrow. My daughter is currently in the toddlers room after yet another seamless transition
from the baby room. Both kids loved going especially to the party and dress-up days. We can not thank the nursery enough for their help and support and we have recommended the nursery to both friends and family as a result.

My little boy started in the baby room in July 2020, and I can't thank the staff enough for what they have done for my little boy, he has grown in confidence. They support every child and have different fun activities planned for each day which also helps them learn. They also give you feedback at the
end of the day, and also send out daily diaries with what your child has eaten and what they have done during the day. They send out pictures to you of what your child has been doing.

My 2-year-old has been at Roger's Burrow full time since he was 6 months old and is absolutely thriving. Right from the start, the wonderful staff have been so kind and caring to him and create a friendly, fun and imaginative environment. The new garden facilities are brilliant and it is great to see
the children outside regularly. The communication is excellent and we are very happy with every aspect of the care our son receives.
The morning excitement of arriving at nursery and running into the fun without so much as a backwards glance says it all to me.

Both my children have attended Rogers Burrow nursery, and I would highly recommend them, especially in the earlier age groups. The babies room and toddlers were so attentive with my children and celebrated every milestone with them. I know my youngest is in the safest hands there, and they delight in
watching her grow and develop. The garden makeover has made a huge difference to the nursery and is a wonderful place for them to play outside safely in the summer.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for only a couple of months and she loves it, always comes out happy, laughing and confident. The staff are very welcoming and understand how hard it is when leaving your baby for such a long day. You get a report of how your child’s day has been, i.e. eating,
fluids, toilet checks etc. I would recommend to anyone or close friends.

Our daughter has been attending the nursery for 4 months now and has settled in very well. The nursery offers settling sessions which are a great way for the parent and child to get to know the staff and nursery.


I feel our daughter is flourishing from being in a caring and stimulating environment

and I’m always amazed how much they can fit into one day! The staff truly care about the children and no matter who answers the door, all the staff know our daughter by name.


Our daughter has a food allergy and this has never been an issue and she has always been provided with a healthy and varied diet.

My daughter has been attending RB now for over 2 years and she is thriving. They do so much throughout the day and due to its small size she mixes with all the different ages of children and still sees familiar faces even though moving up in classes. I look forward to sending my son there in the next
few months.

My little one joined the nursery back in September 2017. As he is our first child we were extremely nervous about leaving him with people he hadn’t met before.
Rodger Burrows nursery were a huge support through this transition, offering settle in sessions and providing us with regular updates.
Many
months on, our son absolutely loves going to this nursery. He is exposed to a large variety of activities and given all the attention and compassion we could ever hope for.
They truly have our best wishes at heart, for example, supporting our preference to pursue baby led weaning.
We feel privileged to have such amazing staff looking after our son.

My son has attended this nursery from 11 months until he leaves for school this summer. He loves going and is always very chatty about his day on the way home. The staff know the children well and were very accommodating for his milk allergy. I'm always contented that he eats well there. The activities
the staff put on for the children are great they always have something on the go. Now he is a preschooler, having the classroom is great for getting them ready for school. The outside space the children love and they even make use of the play courts. I've been to a few nurseries with my other son, and I really couldn't recommend this one enough. The staff's efforts are fab.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for Pixieland Day Nursery - HMS Drake 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.873 for Pixieland Day Nursery - HMS Drake is calculated as follows: ( (124 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.873

  • 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 Pixieland Day Nursery - HMS Drake is based on 12 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 12 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.
