A brilliant nursery with great facilities. The staff are really friendly and are great with my little one. The regular updates on the app are helpful and really informative to see what they have been up to in the day and what they have had to eat etc.

I can't fault the staff at Rock a Tots Crownhill. My little boy had been there since 7 months old and is so happy.
Always informed us of the things going on, he's learning well and we are both very happy with his setting!
Thank you.

Would highly recommend Rock a Tots Nursery. My daughter has been going there for over a year now and loves it. The staff are always so lovely and are really interested in the children. My daughter also has diet restrictions and the staff have been so lovely and helpful and have made an extra effort
to make sure she has the same foods as everyone else. I love getting the daily updates about my daughter, as well as the learning updates on the app. Thank you, Rock a Tots.

Good experience all round and plenty of fun activities. Our daughter is very happy here and hope to be for other kids, as good of an experience, as it has for ours. Definitely recommend the place.

Rock a Tots and its staff is like family. Our son has been there since he was nine months old (almost three now) and he has always loved going. The staff are friendly and truly show their love for the children. Management is great, approachable and understanding. They have a great variety of activities
to keep the kids busy, entertained and educated. You can call them anytime to check on little ones! They keep you updated on their development and even just little things that happen. We could not have chosen a better setting for our son!

My youngest son started in September and we just love it. We knew Rock a Tots was the nursery after our first viewing. The staff are so lovely, friendly, caring and welcoming. The facilities are fantastic, homely and fun for these little ones. My son is only 10 months and when we arrive he gets so excited,
he always has a big smile on his face when the girls come down to collect him ready for his day. I would highly recommend Rock a Tots!

My son has been attending Rock a Tots since he was 9 months old and he has absolutely thrived in the environment. He attends three days a week and is always looking forward to going. My son discusses what he has done during the day and often comes home with pictures he has drawn. The staff are incredibly
well-trained and cater to the needs of the children. My son has shown great academic skill developed through the early years foundation stage (EYFS) curriculum that Rock a Tots make interesting and imaginative.

My child has only been going to this nursery for one month and already settled in so well. I'm so pleased; he's already growing confident and learning so many new things with the help of the wonderful staff.
I feel at ease leaving him daily in their safe, loving care.
Such a friendly, professional
team.

This is an excellent nursery, and I am so pleased to have chosen it for our twins. They are now in their last year of nursery ahead of primary school next September, and I can truly say that Rock A Tots has supported my children's development and continues to do so.
Not only do they do book time, role
play, and creative play/crafts, to name a few, they regularly bake with them, which I feel is a fantastic learning resource whilst being enjoyable. Currently, my children come home singing Christmas songs that they are learning for their nativity.
Communication is fluent about the day the children have had, but also upcoming events etc.
The staff are amazing.

A fantastic nursery, with lovely rooms and a great outdoor space. My daughter enjoys going so much and the staff genuinely care about the children’s well-being. Great that they offer all term care and stretch funding which helps as a working parent. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery.

This nursery really has a family and community element to its environment. The setting is well furnished and homely as well as being very well structured regarding its layout, to support the needs of the children. The staff are really friendly and always happy to help. The manager is always available
to discuss any queries and actually knows all the children. I was so worried how my daughter would settle in as she was only going once a week, the team were really understanding and didn’t mind me ringing about three times initially for the first few weeks to check in on how she had settled. They made me feel at ease and always gave feedback of how she was doing. My little girl loves nursery and is so excited, bless her. This is all down to the great staff and commitment they have to ensure key relationships and bonds are made with the children and for them to fee settled, safe and ready to learn whilst having fun.

Both of my children have attended Rock a Tots nursery over the past 4 years and I could not have asked for a better childcare experience. The management is friendly, approachable and professional at all times. All staff have shown a great interest in the health and well-being of my children and have
nurtured their growth and development. My children have thrived in this environment and have enjoyed their time there greatly.

I was so anxious about my son starting nursery and leaving him in the care of others but I didn't need to be. My son loves his days at nursery here, he actually runs in smiling and always comes home smiling. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. I'm so glad I decided on this nursery. Would
highly recommend.

My son has been attending the nursery since he was just over a year old, he is now 4 and loves the staff as his own family. The staff is so caring and friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them. Their flexibility during COVID has been great, especially with my partner and myself being critical
workers. The environment is one of nurture and love and my son has thrived being there. His development is exactly where he should be and amazes me with the things he has learned. Communication is great, we read the daily updates together when he gets home and it develops into a whole narrative of his friends and what he has been up to. I love Tapestry and the ease we can share developments with nursery and vice-versa. I would definitely, and do, recommend this fantastic nursery to anyone who will listen. My son will be sad to go to school in September as he has such an amazing journey at Rock a Tots.

Rock a Tots is a lovely, friendly and welcoming nursery. My eldest daughter thoroughly enjoys her days and now my youngest has already settled well. During the difficult times we’ve had to date, management at Rock a Tots have been extremely patient, supportive and understanding. We wouldn’t hesitate
to recommend this nursery to anyone.

Rock a Tots is a fantastic nursery. They have always been supportive and accommodating. My little one has always found transitions difficult between rooms. They have gone the extra mile for him at each step to make this easier. Staff are all very friendly. The management team have always been really
helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Would highly recommend the nursery.

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.
