My little boy has been attending Rock a Tots since June 2021. He absolutely loves it.
I have always loved how homely it feels in each room and how each room grows them.
The activities they do daily are varied and I love the home crafts he brings back. It’s so lovely when you’re a working family
to get little gifts made by your little ones.
The updates on Tapestry mean that I can keep up to date with his progress and I love seeing posts on there. They definitely deserve a new camera so that the photo quality will match their quality care!
The staff are very friendly and informative. The care diary and face to face collections mean that I can be personally informed of his day.
My little boy is now 2 coming up 3 and is changing all the time, and I’m confident Rock a Tots will continue to support him as they always have.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since 2020 and my son started last September. Both love going and they have big smiles for the nursery workers. They have made lots of friends and have a great time! The staff are very friendly and keep me up to date with what they have been doing that day.
I also receive updates on the app of what they have been doing. I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

This is a fantastic nursery and one where my twins have been very settled from starting in cooing cubs and moving through to pre-school. They have great focus on child development through play whilst also balancing time for phonics and learning life cycles of animals etc. They get children involved
in baking which is a fantastic life skill to start learning at a young age. Dedication to produce a Christmas play involving the children which was lovely to see and a moment to cherish as a parent.
The food is of a great variety, cooked on site and allows children to have a good balanced diet.
They are always looking to develop/initiate new things whether this be outside activities such as a giant abacus for example to aid child development or making a wormery.
There is a pet rabbit which the children support caring for.
I couldn't ask for more and my twins are always excited to go to nursery and see their friends.
I am so pleased I found Rock a Tots, Crownhill.

The nursery have been brilliant with my little one. The space is a good size, modern, clean and I thought I wanted a smaller nursery but actually as soon as I visited I changed my mind. The workers are lovely, I feel they’ve really taken the time to get to know my little one and they have good communication
with us as parents. The hours are flexible and they always try to cater for adhoc days where I’ve needed.

Both our children have attended Rock a Tots nursery and I don’t have a bad thing to say. They both loved their experience at the nursery. The staff are amazing, knowledgeable about the children, interested and so friendly and happy. I’ve felt since day one that my children are cared for. There are lots
of different activities across the year giving a good variation for the children. The setting is lovely, they make the most of the space. Highly recommend!

Three of my kids were/are at Rock a Tots and, despite now living in Cornwall, we've chosen to keep our kids here because we love it. The staff are brilliant, they really get to know the kids and their home set-up, and they really form bonds with the kids. They do really fun, imaginative activities (my
4-year-old loves baking at nursery) and spend time outside which is really important to me.
They support them so well in their pre-school years so our eldest felt really ready for school.
I fully trust them with my kids and my kids love it.

We have been with this nursery for over 7 years with our son and then our daughter currently attending the nursery. Rock a Tots continues to grow from strength to strength, continuously improving the activities and regular updates to the nursery itself.
My children, with very different personalities,
have both equally flourished at the nursery. Staff are patient and caring and supportive. This was very evident with my youngest who has a food allergy.
If you’re looking for a warm atmosphere where children are treated with a lot of love and respect then you will love this hard-working nursery.

Both of my kids attend this nursery and they both love it. You can see how much their staff care for kids and my eldest one who's 3 came out of her shell so much and leant so much. Always love learning what they been up to and all new stuff that she learnt.
My youngest took a little while to settle.
He only goes once a week but now he's walking in himself without any tears. Always love seeing updates and pictures of their day as well.

Both of our daughters attend the nursery, our eldest has attended for 20 months and our youngest has been there for just under a month. I have not a bad thing to say about the nursery or the staff. Our eldest has absolutely thrived since attending nursery and loves going, both she and we as a family
have built good relationships with the staff. I visited several nurseries when looking, and when visiting Rock a Tots something just felt right and it has been that way ever since. A safe and happy place for both of our girls to learn, grow and play whilst we are at work. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Thank you all at Rock a Tots.

My son has been attending this nursery for about 8 months now and I am so happy with the friendly staff and general atmosphere of the Nursery. I went to see 6 nursery’s and out of the 6 I chose this one as something just felt right and I’m so glad I did! My son always runs in with a beaming smile and
the staff are so happy and welcoming. The nursery is very accommodating and keeps you updated and I couldn’t recommend it enough!

The staff at Rock A Tots have always been fantastic, with both my eldest and now my youngest daughter.
They're very engaging and encouraging in the activities that they do with the children, but also personalise and adapt to the child's needs and development.
Their communication is brilliant too,
they always ensure that the parents are kept up to date, both daily and with future events and activities.

My daughter really enjoys all the activities and we have seen her grow from strength to strength since being there. We will be very sad in September
when she goes off to school, thanks Rock a Tots for supporting the first part in my daughter's journey.

Both my children have attended this nursery and my daughter is in her final year since attending since she was about 7 months. Both children enjoyed / enjoy attending and have great bonds with their key workers. Staff always have time to discuss issues and management are on hand if you need them. There
is outdoor space and my daughter tells me of various activities such as baking. They’ve recently had new security installed which is reassuring for parents. I am happy with their service.

My son has been attending nursery here for nearly two years and absolutely loves it. He settled in really well which made me feel at ease. The nursery has always been so accommodating and happy to take calls if needed to check-in. They've supported each developmental stage really well for example potty
training, weaning from dummy etc. My son is always so excited to go and comes out smiling at the end of the day full of stories about what he's been up to. The practitioners are all lovely and you can tell they really care about the children and the level of care they are giving. Highly recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.944)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.944) out of 10 for Rock a Tots Crownhill 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.944 for Rock a Tots Crownhill is calculated as follows: ( (355 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.944

  • 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 Rock a Tots Crownhill is based on 31 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 79 number of registered child places is 15.8, which has been reached with 31 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.
