The facility is amazing and very personal to the kids. I love everything the children get to make and learn in the nursery and really are nurtured.
The staff are fantastic! Take the time to learn about your kids. Interact with them well and really bring the best out in your kids. It is so obvious that
the staff enjoy playing with the kids, and don't mind getting messy with them.

I have two kids at the nursery, one preschool and one at school - both of them love going. The staff are great with kids, always friendly and doing lots of activities with them. Very flexible with sessions providing different session times and also having holiday club/after school club for older children!
I have used several nurseries now and this one has by far been the most convenient.

My daughter has been going to Little Flyers since she was 6 months old, she loves it and she can't wait to get there in the morning. It has given her so much confidence, the staff are really friendly and she feels at home.

Both our children absolutely love the nursery and after just less than two months we can already observe it's great for their development, the time spent at the nursery has been. The staff are absolutely fantastic, the building is very spacious, very safe, clean and very well equipped. It's absolutely
crucial for us that we know our children are safe and have a great time when they are there. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place.
The nursery is lovely, bright and welcoming.
The staff have created a great environment with absolutely everything to keep your little ones entertained throughout the day. Staff update you on everything your child does throughout the day. My child who is 5 loves going and really
enjoys her time here and I feel relaxed that she is in safe hands whilst I am working.
Keep up the great work Flyers.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.878)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.878) out of 10 for Little Flyers @ West Calder Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 6 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 4.722 for Little Flyers @ West Calder Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (53 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.722

  • 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 4.156 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Flyers @ West Calder Nursery is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.556

  • 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.
