Into-Play @ Barnwood opened in October 2015 and was previously the old Barnwood doctor's surgery. It is perfectly situated to provide childcare to Barnwood, Elmbridge, Hucclecote and Abbeymead.

The nursery has been carefully designed to provide all age groups with superb equipment and activities to suit their developmental stage. They have an under 2's room, 2-3's room and large pre-school unit, which is complemented by a huge outdoor space to allow the children to get out in the fresh air and enjoy mud kitchens, reading teepee and the outside playroom, known as "The Shed".

A super nursery. My daughter is two and loves the days she spends here. I am now in the process of introducing my second daughter here before I return to work. I would recommend this nursery to anyone and the staff are super, they ensure that your child gets plenty of settling in sessions so that they
are happy and ready when the time comes for you to leave them and go to work. Excellent management, the manager is very open, friendly and accommodating with all your needs.

All three of my children have very much enjoyed their time with IntoPlay. Perfect start to school life. I will be sad when my youngest finishes pre-school this year. I can't thank the staff enough. Barnwood is a great addition, excellently managed.

We are delighted with the work that into play do. They make sure it is a happy, safe and rich learning environment for my son. The staff are brilliant and always go the extra mile. We are very pleased with his development since attending nursery.

My son appears happy, confident and keen to engage with all aspects of his day in nursery. He surprises me with increasing evidence of socialising skills and polite behaviour (he is only 3). The nursery staff communicate well and engage with my husband and I to optimise care and the learning journey
my son is on. As a parent, I am pleased with my choice of nursery and I would definitely recommend IntoPlay Day Nursery @ Barnwood to any parent.

Lovely staff. Great activities and feedback. Daughter settled in very quickly. Nothing is too much trouble and work with parents in partnership to overcome any difficulties. Non-judgemental and helpful advice given. Daughter always happy when she comes home and loves going in the morning.

My son attends this nursery and is enjoying it very much. He loves all the staff and has already built up a great rapport with them. He doesn't even look back when I drop him off! He has only been going a few weeks and has already brought home a vast variety of things he's made. I am very happy that
he is safe and secure. He's had a great range of meals and is utterly content with being there.

Very pleased with the nursery. They are very helpful and my son loves it there. He couldn't talk much but since hes been going there he has come out on his own and they are very understanding. All the staff are lovely and kind and they care of your children and they always want what best for them and
to help them improve. I would differently tell my friend about the nursery to take their children there
Thank you keep up the hard work xxx

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.924)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.924) out of 10 for IntoPlay Day Nursery @ Barnwood 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 46 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 46 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 4.924 for IntoPlay Day Nursery @ Barnwood is calculated as follows: ( (510 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 550 Ratings = 4.924

  • 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 IntoPlay Day Nursery @ Barnwood is based on 46 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 46 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.
