My son has been attending Daisy Fays for approximately 18months and he loves it. The staff are all kind, caring and totally professional and are always available and happy to discuss any concerns I may have. It’s lovely to feel he is happy and in a safe environment while he’s there. I’m always recommending
Daisy Fays to any friends looking for a nursery.

The nursery is bright, very clean, and inviting. My little boy absolutely loves his 3 days a week here. He settled in straight away because the staff were very friendly, calm and caring. They have different themes and do lots of activities. The menu is varied which means he gets a good balance of food
throughout the week. We were impressed when we initially looked around and when he started it certainly lived up to my expectations.

I am extremely happy with DF (Daisy Fays) because my two girls are so happy there. They are always very happy to be left and they come home with good crafts. They are very happy eaters at the nursery and I think the staff show very good examples of care, hygiene, and above all manners and smiles.

Daisy Fays is a welcoming and friendly nursery - my son has been settling in over the past few weeks and every member of staff has gone out of their way to ensure he settled as quickly as possible - it's a lovely warm and caring environment, I have already recommended Daisy Fays to friends! I can't
praise you enough for the care and attention you give my son. Thank you!

Staff at the nursery are excellent. My son has multiple food allergies and I was impressed with how seriously this was taken by the staff and the robust management plan of his allergies that were put in place. I feel confident in leaving my son in their care and he thoroughly enjoys his time there.
Fully recommended this nursery.

My 2-year-old has been at Daisy Fays Chiverton Cross for just over 7 months now and she's settled so well. All the staff are brilliant and have made my daughter feel so relaxed and comfortable in her surroundings there are times when I think she'd rather stay and keep playing! Overall I feel it's a
great environment for babies and toddlers. Lots of fun and games and she's definitely learning lots as she comes home talking about the things she's done and singing songs she's learnt ( twinkle, twinkle little star cutest thing ever). Fantastic nursery, smart, safe and I genuinely feel like they care about my baby (she went to another nursery for a few days where it felt like she was just a number). Would definitely recommend both of Daisy Fays nurseries.

My son's face lights up when we arrive at Nursery, and it seems (he is only one so cannot tell me) that he has a wonderful time there. I was very impressed with the purpose built facilities, and standards adhered to ensure that the personal and educational needs of each child are met, whilst allowing
them to have a really lovely and fun time. The little report sheets at the end of the day are really thorough and I love knowing what my son gets up to on the days I have to work and cannot be with him. The staff are all so friendly and caring, and the things he is given to eat sound delicious. Good job Team Daisy. Thank you.

I am so pleased that I chose this nursery! I have been really anxious about leaving my daughter at a nursery but from the first time of viewing the nursery, all of the staff have been amazing! Everyone is friendly and started to put my mind at ease from initial viewing.


My 10-month-old daughter

has only been there a few weeks but she is always happy when I pick her up and well cared for. They give me a form with details about what has happened during the day, what she's eaten, nappy changes, what she's enjoyed playing with, etc, which I really wanted so is great!


Everyone has been really supportive of trying to maintain a similar routine to what we do at home.


I feel confident that whilst we're at work our Daughter is being looked after by a fantastic nursery. I would definitely recommend Daisy Fays!

My child is always happy and well cared for, this says all I need to know. Staff are friendly and helpful if I have any questions, but don't always offer up info on feedback such as what she has done or eaten, so I am not always sure.

My son has now been at Daisy Fays a year and loves it. There have even been occasions he hasn't wanted to leave when I arrive to collect him! The staff are all warm, friendly and professional and provide a happy and safe childcare setting.

Daisy Fays is an excellent nursery. Our son loves attending and really looks forward to his nursery days. He does a huge range of activities, he particularly enjoys playing on the balance bikes and doing messy play. He plays outside every day and comes home with tales of all the exciting things they
have done. His favourite activity recently was making a space rocket and learning all about the planets! The staff are always warm, friendly and professional. They take an active interest in our son and he clearly enjoys spending his time with them.


Our son has a good routine at nursery and the staff were really flexible to fit in with what we usually do at home. He loves the food and snacks that he gets and really enjoys sitting down with his friends to eat.


It makes such a difference to us to know that our son is happy and well cared for while we are at work. I would thoroughly recommend Daisy Fays to anyone looking for a nursery for their child.

The staff at Daisy Fays are always friendly and approachable, our little one settled in very well and we were supported as apprehensive parents. The nursery is such a lovely, clean environment and we always look forward to hearing about what our little one has been up to while at nursery.

Lovely new nursery, immaculate (unlike the previous nursery), friendly staff. Our little daughter has been so happy here and we can't fault the lovely care she has. Her health has improved beyond belief since starting at Daisy Fays 1st class, easily the best around these parts!

I was so nervous about my 8-month-old starting a nursery, I knew the benefits but I was so anxious. I took my baby for a look around and was straight away put at ease. We were welcomed by a confident, caring team of experienced practitioners who made us both a lot happier. The nursery has a lovely atmosphere,
its clean, fresh and has so much for the children to do.
My baby has settled so well and enjoys his 3 days a week there. The team are supportive and very understanding towards myself and my boy.
I especially like the age appropriate outdoor area which is full of things to look at and do.
I'm so glad we picked Daisy Fays Chiverton and the main reason for our choice was the good reputation of their Carnon Downs nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Daisy Fays Nursery Chiverton Cross is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 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 4.833 for Daisy Fays Nursery Chiverton Cross is calculated as follows: ( (317 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 371 Ratings = 4.833

  • 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 Daisy Fays Nursery Chiverton Cross 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4, 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.

I have been working for Daisy Fays for over 6 years now and I am now the manager of Daisy Fays Chiverton Cross.


I enjoy all aspects of my job from the organisation to the nurturing of the children who come through our setting.

Watching them progress from babies to then graduating is such an amazing opportunity for us all and knowing we have given our all to the children in preparation for school is a huge proud moment for me within Daisy Fays.


I love to spend time with my family and our favourite thing to do is to go away in our newly renovated motor home. We love to explore different parts of Cornwall, but we still haven't managed to see My family all enjoy clay pigeon shooting and my husband shoots professionally- so again we love to go away on little adventures with him and explore.


I love to cook for my family and friends and love nothing more than a BBQ with all my family!!!

Job Title: Assistant Manager

Joined: 2019

I have been at Daisy Fays for almost 4 years. I am now the Assistant manager and Room lead to the Happy Hens.
I love the age group I lead so much as they begin to further their vocabulary and their little characters begin to shine so much.


I thrive from watching the children progress through the setting and then flourish as they leave for their school journey.


I am a busy mum to three children so at the weekends you will normally find me out and about exploring the beaches of Cornwall. I love a sun lounger and a holiday abroad with all my family making beautiful memories.
