Our little one has been there from age one to three years. Not a single complaint from my child, me, or my wife over the two years. My child is always happy at drop-off (after settling in) and at collection. Staff are always kind to my child, helpful with our requests, accommodating and provides good
feedback. Little to no staff turnover over the two years. Owners actively involved in helping. Lots of activities outside when the weather is good. Good website showing activity pictures and details of progress. Overall our experience was simply excellent. Five-star recommendation.

An excellent family-owned and run nursery, where my two sons thrived during their four years at Rainbow Smiles. The care, energy and warmth of the team towards my children was impressive and the boys were so happy to attend. Thank you.

I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. Right from the initial settling in days, the staff at Rainbow Smiles have made the process easy and reassuring. Our son settled quickly and the warm, caring, and attentive staff has always kept us up to date on his progress at nursery and their online portal
has been a very helpful touchpoint and form of communication. The staff ensures a wide variety of activities for the children to participate in. Rainbow Smiles offers excellent value for money in a wonderful, caring environment.

I regard Rainbow Smiles as a first-rate nursery. Everyone from top to bottom has been extremely welcoming, helpful, and have always gone above and beyond what has been required. I cannot mark the Rainbow Smiles team enough for the years my daughter has thoroughly enjoyed here!

Rainbow Smiles has been a fantastic nursery for our little boy. From day one the staff was reassuring, caring, and attentive. As a family-run business, it felt there was a much closer connection with every member of staff, knowing every single child. We are sad to be leaving Rainbow Smiles and hope
that our next nursery outside London will be as good an experience as Rainbow Smiles. We particularly valued the online portal and communication each day with staff, which gave transparency and comfort that he was in the best possible hands.

Rainbow Smiles is a special find. The setting is a warm and welcoming environment, without being overwhelming. My son has matured emotionally and developed so many new skills thanks to the team. Staff are engaged, kind and fun. We really miss our Rainbow Smiles days.

We have had two children attend Rainbow Smiles from under the age of one to leaving for school.
It is a family run business, so the owners are familiar with your children and adapt well to the expressed needs of your family.
They were the only nursery in the area which provided a dark sleeping room
for babies to nap in. We were also impressed with the level of attention and care shown to our children.
The team at Rainbow Smiles genuinely love the children, they look after and look to support you as a family.
I have recommended the nursery to friends who moved their children there, and they have been very happy too.

We went with Rainbow Smiles for our child because of the welcoming and friendly atmosphere we experienced during the visit, and this has continued throughout her time there. It was reassuring to know that a number of staff had been there for a good number of years and they seem to enjoy their role and
responsibilities.
We really like the fact that they provide a live online platform for updates on your child, including photos of them doing activities and live eating, sleeping and hygiene information - although this can be slow to update. You can also view the child's learning journey and developmental milestones, although it is not clear how this is as observations are not often added for you to see.
The management team and the staff have been really supportive to parents and children, particularly during the COVID-19 restrictions and are always willing to help out with the odd emergency extra day etc.
Would be happy to recommend the nursery to others.

Rainbow Smiles is absolutely first class, our son and daughter have loved it. The staff are attentive and caring and the focus on early years learning is amazing. Our daughter will often say 'is it Rainbows Smiles tomorrow - YAY!' They have both developed and learnt so much during their time at Rainbow
Smiles (and eaten so well too!) Thanks to the management and staff for such dedication, professionalism and making it a great environment for children to learn and grow.

We sent our children to Rainbow Smiles on the recommendation of a friend and we're so glad we did. The kids love it there; the staff, the activities and the overall experience have been great! We have also been really impressed with the management; their professionalism and attention to detail has been
excellent and given us confidence in the high quality of care the children receive. I'm always excited to hear about what our daughter (3) has learnt, experienced and enjoyed each day!

Rainbow Smiles is an amazing family style nursery. I was unfortunate to lose my childcare under very short notice the manager has been so supportive and helpful. My daughter on just visiting jumped right in and didn't want to leave. I really liked the fact they had there own chef that came in and cooked
the children's meals. In this Covid time the team have communicated so beautifully with so much information and updates and even online classes so the children don't miss out. Fantastic team and fantastic nursery, I can't thank you enough for all the support and help you have provided for myself and my daughter.

So sad my daughter is leaving to go to Big school but she has had an amazing time at Rainbow Smiles. Staff are amazing and have taken care of her a lot. She loved all the Spanish classes in preschool, she loved all of the chef's food and the fact it was halal. My daughter also enjoyed the activities
and trips out as well. Thank you Rainbow Smiles.

A very organised, fun and engaging developmental experience. The staff are well trained and experienced but most importantly they love what they do and want the best for the children. Communication is excellent and they take time to get to know each child and then help them to excel. Children are introduced
to different things and rich experiences daily.

An excellent nursery. My son attended from 12 months to 2.5 years old and we didn't proceed to preschool as we moved out of the area. The keyworkers were extremely impressive and gave my son the attention and affection he needed to thrive. He is a lively boy and the staff were more than happy to engage
him in all activities. I have been particularly impressed with his language, letters and number development and his increased love of books.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Rainbow Smiles Ltd 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.917 for Rainbow Smiles Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (143 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 Rainbow Smiles Ltd is based on 13 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 13 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.
