My child has been here since a baby and absolutely loves it, the staff are extremely friendly and always welcoming. The nursery looks amazing and very inviting and my child is happy to leave me every morning. Very very highly recommended.

My son started preschool in September '20 after turning three in August. This was also his first time at a nursery. He attends during school hours two days a week which I think is perfect in order to get him ready for school next year. It took a couple of months for my son to fully settle but even with
this he would talk non stop about nursery when he would be home. You can ring up as many times as you like to check on your child, the ladies always inform you about how they have been and you are kept up to date on the app on daily activities, the food they are given and how much they have eaten which is brilliant. I honestly cannot fault this nursery, the rooms are so spacious and bright with natural light with access to a large garden filled with lots of toys. My son asks every morning if he's going to nursery and comes home with a big smile on his face. He has learnt so much already too as they do structured activities. They are also brilliant with my son's dietary requirements.

Spotty Zebra Day Nursery is a welcoming, professional setting with very friendly, caring staff. Children's needs and development are at the heart of this setting. Staff are approachable and accommodating. We are pleased to have found such a happy, friendly environment for our grandchild to spend time
at in these vital early years of her development.

I cannot praise this nursery enough. Following the short-term closure of another local nursery I was on the hunt for a new one, but none of them stood up to expectations until I walked in here. I knew almost immediately that it was where I wanted my daughter to attend. Warm, friendly, very spacious,
fresh food cooked on site. Plenty of toys and activities for the children. They have employed an app so that you can keep track of your child's progress throughout the day, including pictures.
My daughter was always funny with new people and had a few false starts, but settled in very easily within a week or so. She now runs to the door when we leave home and tries to get back in when we leave the nursery!
Thanks girls, keep up the good work.

We are so glad we were able to offer you a space and how well your little one has settled.

I have been impressed by this nursery from day one. The facilities, the staff, the nurturing of my son are all excellent, I never have a need to worry when he is at nursery. I know he is well looked after and his development has been noticed by everyone since he started at Spotty Zebra. The staff and
management are extremely approachable, the app that is used to show the daily activities and information is really easy to use and tells me everything I need to know. The rooms are bright, well decorated and full of lots of fun things to keep children of all ages engaged. The meals are all freshly prepared. He is never poorly and needing days off. There are lots of events scheduled throughout the year. I have been able to go back to a stressful job without the added worry of how my little one is managing at nursery, he is very happy and so am I.

My son started here at the start of September and already loves it! He gets excited when seeing the nursery and goes happily into the room. He attends Babies but all staff are very friendly and will make us feel welcome. Couldn’t recommend enough... great choice!

My granddaughter now enjoys going here. She took time to settle in, being a mommy's girl and got upset when Mommy left but is now fine and really enjoys going.
She has lots of friends and always talks about her day when Nanny goes and picks her up. She loves the staff and they are all very good with
her. Can highly recommend this lovely nursery for any child. We viewed quite a few nurseries and none were as nice as Spotty Zebra.

My son settled in lovely, made friends well and when does get upset from time to time they allow me to comfort him until he's ready, which is reassuring rather than having to leave him upset. The building and space itself is beautiful and spacious. The staff are very friendly and go above and beyond
if needed. Would highly recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.916)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.916) out of 10 for Spotty Zebra Day Nursery Ltd 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 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 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 4.916 for Spotty Zebra Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (430 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 466 Ratings = 4.916

  • 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 Spotty Zebra Day Nursery Ltd is based on 39 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 39 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.
