The staff within the nursery have been fantastic with my son, he has had a hard time settling and the staff have gone above and beyond to settle him with distracting him with activities to allow me to leave. When he comes home he is so excited to tell me what he has done at the nursery.

Professional service in this nursery, can not rate Little Flyers enough, my daughter loves attending here, loads of different activities for her to do whether it’s inside or out or baking or painting; she just loves it, and also the staff and management go to great lengths to always make you feel welcome.
Would highly recommend this nursery.

This nursery has a very warm and welcoming feeling, and I love the homely setting. It is evident the staff work hard to provide experiences that the children are interested in.
My daughter, who is two really enjoys it and talks about what she has been up to when she comes home, and always asks if she
is going to nursery.
Her speech is also coming along, and it's lovely to see her happy and settled in the nursery. The staff always have time to talk to you, and anything I have asked about has been dealt with quickly.

Sharon.

My daughter has been attending for almost the last 2 years and has enjoyed her time with the nursery. She was apprehensive at first but the open atmosphere, very friendly and caring staff and smaller group sizes have helped her settle well and we have seen her grow in confidence.
In the last few weeks,
she has especially enjoyed watching the process of duck eggs incubating and hatching. It has been lovely to see her so engaged with this activity and she has been talking non stop about the nursery ducklings! Thank you to the staff for giving the children the opportunity to see this and we look forward to hearing more happy stories from her about her activities at nursery.

Thanks Lynne, the children and the staff loved the ducklings hatching and they will soon have a new home up in West Calder, so we will be taking the children up there to visit.

So have you got kids ? Do you have work or other commitments? Well if the answer is yes then you will be very impressed with Livingston’s Little Flyers. The rooms aren’t overcrowded and the staff are great with my child. In fact my child loves it there and he hates the other nursery he attends - he’s
always asking to go to Little Flyers.


I can see the staff really care for him and all the children are great. If you want somewhere that will really care for your child this is the place.


Reply from Sharon Fairley at Little Flyers @ Livingston

David that is such a lovely review. The staff will be so chuffed to read this. I'm sorry to hear that your wee one does not like his other nursery as much us.


Thanks again.

We recently were invited to attend the nursery with our children to take part in a Gruffalo Easter egg hunt. It was amazingly planned out by the staff and the children had the best time! All the staff should be super proud.

Reply from Sharon Fairley at Little Flyers @ Livingston

Aw thanks, Eilidh, don't know who had the most fun, the children or the staff and the weather was just fab.

My son absolutely loves going to nursery and the staff are brilliant with him. It's a very homely and safe environment for the children and they can explore and learn new things every day. I love that the kids are always in the garden when I come to collect my son, it's clear they all love it. Thanks
so much!

We have been with the nursery since it’s previous nursery provider days and have always loved the ‘small family’ feel. Initially, we were reluctant when Little Flyers took over but we shouldn’t have been! It’s retained its family feel and gained so much more. My child loves nursery and is afforded so
many outdoor learning opportunities which we love! The staff are outstanding and their care for your child is more than evident every day.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.717)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.717) out of 10 for Little Flyers @ Livingston is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.917 for Little Flyers @ Livingston is calculated as follows: ( (88 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 Little Flyers @ Livingston is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 8 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.
