I would never send my child to any other nursery. This nursery has been a blessing to my daughter and myself. My daughter started in the baby room just over a month ago. She has loved it and the teachers are great. All the nursery nurses in Baby room seem to pay a lot of attention to the children's
likes and dislikes and tailor their care around this! It seems like the staff genuinely enjoy their role and truly care for the children. My daughter still cries sometimes when I drop her off however I feel so reassured by the staff that shes okay so I never feel worried and every time I pick her back up, my daughter happily says "more nursery". It feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders by finding this nursery as prior to this my daughter started a different nursery which she did not settle well in. I commend the girls in the baby room for their efforts, truly an amazing team and nursery.

Our daughter has been with this nursery since the start of September, the experience so far has been amazing. They communicate fully, which is what we need especially being new parents. Our daughter loves the girls, she is laughing and having a great time in all the photos! The nursery is clean, tidy,
and very supportive of our daughter's day requirements.

My son has been attending learning journeys for nearly two years and our experience has been exemplary. My son has built caring and warm relationships with nursery staff and he comes home enthusiastic and eager to tell me about his day. His development in all areas is excellent and communication is
fantastic. Would recommend to anyone.

My son has been attending Learning Journeys Daycare since April 2024. He is currently in the Toddler One Room and absolutely loves it. He has a great relationship with his key workers (especially one in particular.), and the care and education he is receiving have been amazing. I'm very happy to choose
this nursery and I appreciate all its staff, especially two teachers in particular.

My experience with Learning Journeys Daycare has been wonderful since my daughter started attending in September 2023.
She has grown in confidence, skills such as demonstrating how to cook, the role of a doctor.
The staff are very supportive providing feedback each day about my daughter.
The environment
is also very neat and indeed Learning Journeys Daycare is the toast of the area and on a scale of 10, I will rate her 10/10 over and over.

Really good nursery. Lovely staff. My young boy attends the nursery and his older sister spent 3 years there. We've never had any problems. My boy loves going there. He comes out with a big smile on his face.

Both of my children attended from baby room right up until preschool, they had so many different learning opportunities every single day and the staff were amazing. They all went above and beyond to care for both of my children, the managers were great too and nothing was ever any trouble!
Also, a
particular member of staff is great! She cooks some great and healthy meals for the children!
100% recommend Learning Journeys if you're looking for childcare!

I just want to start off with I was struggling to find somewhere for my daughter to go for government-funded hours and this nursery accepted her at such short notice.
Also I just want to add since my daughter has been coming to this nursery her confidence and her speech has come on so well and the
staff are really lovely and the communication is great.
I cannot fault this nursery they were absolutely brilliant I would 100% recommend this nursery as it's brilliant.

An amazing nursery of very high standards from all points of view. I don't think 200 words will be enough for my positive feedback, but will try to summarise. Staff are truly, genuinely caring and very knowledgable, and it's easy to see that they are truly invested in and passionate about child care
with everything this entails. These days (and due to previous negative experiences with a different nursery) it is not something I take for granted. My child needed additional support, and it has been spotted and addressed promptly, with loads of advice, encouragement and support available for both my child and myself. My child is thriving in this setting, and I trust Learning Journeys 100% with her care. To see my little one happy at drop-off and pick-up, as well as her positive evolution means everything.

My daughter has attended Learning Journeys since she was 9 months old. We then decided to place my daughter into a childminder and school nursery when she turned 3. I was soon let down by the childminder and was left without childcare.
The manager was so happy to help and showed she really cared.
I was so happy that my daughter could return and she was so excited to see all her old teachers.
The staff are all amazing! They are loving, kindhearted and genuinely care for the children. They keep you updated with the fun activities they are doing during the day. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.
Since returning my daughter, her confidence and development have been growing in huge leaps.
Thank you for being an amazing nursery with exceptional caring staff!

My daughter hadn't really had any previous experience with a nursery except for two play and stay sessions so I expected a difficult transition, but she loves her time here. The staff (especially the owner) are very friendly and approachable and are very child-led.

Great staff, and caring mindsets, it is a comfort to see my child happy to go to nursery. The nursery provides a fun-loving environment whilst safety is always a priority. The teachers are amazing. The facility is clean. There is never a day my child comes out unhappy. The staff are professional and
deal with any concerns promptly. I love this nursery and most importantly my daughter does. Would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.948)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.948) out of 10 for Learning Journeys Daycare 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.948 for Learning Journeys Daycare is calculated as follows: ( (240 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.948

  • 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 Learning Journeys Daycare is based on 21 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 57 number of registered child places is 11.4, which has been reached with 21 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.
