Best pre-school in town with experienced, warm hearted, children loving team like the manager plus all the others too. It's a fantastic place for children.
Safety is brilliant, constant communication from the management, flexible around your schedule.

My daughter has been going to Skamps since she was 9 months old. She was a very unsettled baby away from me and Dad but Skamps helped me settle her into their setting and took her emotional wellbeing into consideration.
All the teachers who work at the setting are loving and friendly and make you feel
like your child is safe while in their care.

My daughter has been attending Skamps since October this year (2022.) Since she was 8 months old. In the short space of time, she has flourished lots! From not being able to sit up well alone to now sitting alone unaided much better, developing skills, interacting with other children, and overall has
come on lots as there are so many activities for the children to do in order to help them develop. The nursery is so helpful and friendly, and the staff are lovely, very knowledgeable and supportive. I feel happy and content when dropping my little girl off at Skamps; she now attends four days a week. I love how they communicate so well and keep all parents up to date. I am so happy I found this lovely little nursery so local to ourselves, and most of all, so glad my little one also enjoys attending. Thank you all at Skamps.

Skamps is such a friendly, enthusiastic, fun place to go to. All staff go above and beyond for the children, also the parents too. Children are taken on visits to local parks etc and when inside have the equipment/toys to keep themselves learning and occupied. It's a safe environment and most of all
a fun and comfortable one.

Absolutely brilliant nursery. The last of my 3 children have all come here. My first born - his speech wasn't very good when he first started but came on leaps and bounds within weeks and is now at school, my second has a severe milk allergy and they have looked after him extremely well, checking every
ingredient label in the building and if they didn't know they asked me - especially when they do cooking - all ingredients checked before and even ensure he is not left out by doing recipes that are milk free. My 3rd child has only started this academic year and has come on leaps and bounds too, she is so independent. I could not ask for a more supportive team. thank you

My son has settled in well back at the nursery for his last year he has only been back a week and comes back talking about what he has been doing every day. They make learning enjoyable making him want to learn and has lots of friends. There is a lot of praise encouragement stickers and certificates
which makes him want to try hard and it really has an impact to him trying his best!! It is clean and very child-friendly with all staff being welcoming and easy to talk to.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.233)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.233) out of 10 for Skamps Pre-school Day 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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 4.708 for Skamps Pre-school Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (17 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.708

  • 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 3.525 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Skamps Pre-school Day Nursery is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 25 number of registered child places is 5. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 5 = 0.4

  • 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.
