Our daughter's carers are great, personable and really care about what they are doing. More updates for the Monday and Fridays would be appreciated as it feels like most activities and updates are on Tuesday to Thursday. We haven't been best pleased with the constant change, be it in staff, management
or the rooms/groups. It's been all over the place. Lastly, the code on the doors has been the same for at least two years, which might be a risk?

My son is still fairly new to Dicky Birds, Durham Road however I am already so impressed with the staff and facilities. The team in the Puffins room in particular are wonderful. They are kind, compassionate and nurturing and their communication has been excellent. I always appreciate their honesty on
how my son has been each day and feel like they really care about him and how they can give him the best experience while attending dicky birds. After only 2 sessions, my son and I had a day off together and I asked him what he would like to do that day. He said ‘Go to nursery mummy, to see the ladies and the children’ - I think that sums everything up perfectly really. Thank you Puffins team, you guys are brilliant at what you do and we’re very grateful for all your hard work and care.

Our daughter has been at the nursery since we moved to the area about 12 months ago when she was one. She’s always been happy to go to nursery, has a close relationship with the staff, and seems to be progressing through her interactive learning with the team well. We’ve always been happy with the nursing
staff, and the facilities, and would more than recommend the nursery to other parents.

Very happy with the level of care my son receives at Dicky Birds Durham Road. He has been with them for over a year and loves going to nursery. He regularly chats to us at home about his little pals and his room team. It’s so hard to leave your little loved ones in the care of others, but I feel 100%

Used to be the best nursery in the area with many months long waiting list. Had two kids there between 2019 -2023. the biggest asset is the baby room where team seems to be stable and genuinely caring.
Pre- school room known as Pelicans is the one where both my kids were unhappy. Limited outings,
high turnover of the staff. There is just no excitement from staff in the morning what so ever. Over all standards dropped ever since Grandir took over. From my point of view, it very much depends on what room is your child in and who is the key worker. There are some fantastic carers who do care about the children and equally there are those who could not look more bored and uninterested. Staff deserving shout out is Amina, Shannon, Shaunie, Hannah and Julie.
Offsted closed nursery for more less a week last year, followed by unsatisfactory report. that makes you wonder.
10 hours a day is a long day for the little ones, choose carefully where you put them.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Our dedicated nursery team are expected to be warm and enthusiastic in the care they provide.

Following Ofsted’s most recent inspection on 14th November 2023, Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Durham Road was awarded a Good rating across all four categories.

My child moved to Dick Birds Durham Road in April 2023. He settled in quickly and is really happy there. The assistant manager is great - always available to answer questions. His time in the puffin's room has been fantastic. The staff in there are so caring and fun! He is currently settling into Pelicans,

We had 2 children at the nursery covering the period of Sept-2019 to May 2023. The nurturing environment we joined in 2019 is no longer there, the feel of the nursery completely changed.
Staff are overstretched and demotivated. The nursery now does the bare minimum for the children. Previously they
would go to local parks every day with staff, now there is limited outside time and only weekly trips out at best. Previously there were sports lessons, swimming classes and forest school for preschool classes, this has all been cut back.
The nursery was sold to a larger organization and no surprise the standards have slipped whilst simultaneously the fees and profit margins have gone up. Parents raised concerns a number of times with Management and got little engagement or improvement. The recent OFSTED poor reviews are the final straw for the nursery. Needless to say, we moved our children to a better, more outside-focussed nursery.

The nursery has unfortunately fallen well below standards expected.
We have been with this nursery for 5 yrs. It is currently a different nursery altogether from the nurturing and developmentally focused environment, where our older daughter spent her early years.
Rooms are understaffed, with the
assistant manager often having to attend to the children by herself at dropoff. Parents are asked to stay well into opening times to wait for room staff to turn up. Temp staff provide minimal attention to the children and often leave within weeks, putting perm staff under tremendous pressure.
Our child came back with unexplained injuries on numerous occasions. Sometimes injury reports were not provided, as they hadn't even noticed the large bruise on his face or open wounds on his hands. It also took 2 months for the team to complete an allergy care plan for our child's cow's milk allergy when he first joined.
Daynurseries need to update their scoring system as we'd give 0 stars if we could.

Both our children attend Dickybirds and we can’t speak highly enough of the staff in the Pelicans and Signets rooms. The boys both love their respective key workers and have formed a real and lasting bond with all the staff in their respective rooms.
Our only negative comment relating to our experience
at Dickybirds is that the communication from the nursery’s management team is almost nonexistent. They’ve been stretched far too thin and are barely able to reply to the simplest enquiry. Also, Kiddy Carru has raised the nursery fees multiple times in the last few months with very little explanation or justification.
The staff in the rooms are fantastic but they are let down spectacularly by their managers and employers.

We are very happy with Dicky Birds Durham Road.
All the staff we know seem to deeply care about the children. We think a few of them are like an extended family. Our children have strong bonds with them. They go there all day every day, and we can see how much they learn. The activities are varied;
they do baking, drawing, painting, messy play, reading, singing and dancing, and they go to the park a couple of times a week.
The food is cooked on-site every day, and the menu is varied.
We are very happy overall.
On the slightly negative side: It would be good to have parts of the building/rooms refreshed as some parts are old now.
The communication/emails from management are not regular, and the fees increased twice lately: once in September once coming up in April. It’s becoming very expensive, and we don’t have a choice but to accept these fees. We are not businesses ourselves, so increasing the fees twice within eight months during this period of inflation is very difficult for us.

The team are doing well despite being under significant pressure and a crisis in the sector. Short staffing leads to a rise in agency staff who do not know the children as well and therefore cannot help children with their ongoing development needs in as significant a way. The long-serving team are
to be commended for their engagement and dedication, and this can be seen in the passing down knowledge to you get staff.
The nursery feels safe, is well-resourced, and children are cared for. The provision of phonics has changed, and I would say this is not for the better. There is less structured play than previously and less detailed observations, which all point to a lack of resourcing and support for nursery staff across the sector as they are expected to do the same with less money relative to the cost of living.

I have full confidence in sending my son to Dicky Birds Day Nursery because of the hard work of the people that run and support his room (Pelicans). In particular, I am continually impressed by his room leader for her ingenuity with activities and commitment to every single child. Most recently we received
thoughtful Mother’s Day gifts that would have taken a huge amount of work and planning.

Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool is a wonderful nursery. The love and care they show our son is genuine and constant. He was quite socially anxious when he started nursery, but the staff went to such great efforts to make him comfortable and happy, his confidence has grown immeasurably this past
18 months. Every day, my son comes home saying he’s “had fun”! The range of activities and the experiences offered is amazing, and my son has learnt so much through playing and exploring - trips to the local park to play football is a particular favourite of his. The food offered to the children is incredible, I feel very confident that my son eats tasty, balanced, varied meals and snacks, and portions are generous with second helpings given when wanted. The bond my son has with the staff at Dicky Birds has blown me away and exceeded my expectations. We don’t have family close by, but Dicky Birds have filled that gap and become extended family, a home-from-home for my son. I couldn’t recommend the nursery more highly.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.889)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.889) out of 10 for Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Durham Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.1 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 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 4.089 for Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Durham Road is calculated as follows: ( (118 Excellents x 5) + (58 Goods x 4) + (35 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Poors x 2) + (14 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 235 Ratings = 4.089

  • 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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Durham Road is based on 16 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.8

  • 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.
