Staff are very friendly and polite, they always have a smile on their face when I go take my youngest and when I pick her back up. My daughter has only recently started and she's already settled in really well.

Incredible nursery for children of all ages within the age groups they cater for. Every day a wide range of stimulating exciting activities catered for all ages and stages of development. My child’s holistic needs have been met to the highest of standards always. The nursery provides a warm comfortable,
home from home environment which meant my child settled in very quickly and now asks daily to go to the nursery to see the staff. The nursery provides a wide range of healthy snacks and drinks for the children throughout the day. The staff always keep the parent/staff app updated so you get to see pictures and updates of your child throughout the day, this allows you to feel confident in knowing your child is in a fun stimulating environment and that they are cared for at the highest standard. I could not be happier with the care provided by every staff member for my child. The nursery has an incredible range of facilities for the children to use. Would definitely recommend.

My daughter really looks forward to going into nursery. Since attending her confidence and speech has grown in leaps and bounds. The staff are very friendly and keep regular contact with parents using the Famly app or a phone call. I had a discussion with my daughter's key worker around potty training
and this was implemented straight away and all staff have supported this which has been fantastic. Staff have worked really hard during the covid pandemic to ensure the safety of children by keeping the nursery clean and encouraging the children to wash their hands.

Brilliant setting. My boy is happy enough to go every day, he’s eager to get through the doors. The staff treats all the children like they would they’re own and are always happy to help with any questions I have. Can’t thank any of them enough for the way they look after my boy.

The staff within the setting are amazing with all ages of children. My kids always come home happy and with lots of things to talk about. They always have fun and enjoyable things to do within the classes/groups. My son's speech has come along way since attending.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.974)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.974) out of 10 for Penywaun Nursery - Little Inspirations is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.974 for Penywaun Nursery - Little Inspirations is calculated as follows: ( (114 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 117 Ratings = 4.974

  • 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 Penywaun Nursery - Little Inspirations is based on 10 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 24 number of registered child places is 4.8, which has been reached with 10 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.
