My daughter has settled in so well here. She had a few weeks of finding her feet, but the staff were really nice, supportive and helpful, and now she loves it and is happy! I feel happy and confident leaving her for the day. She has really become a social butterfly. The nursery is clean, and the staff
love what they do.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham)

Thank you for this great review. It is wonderful to hear your daughter has settled into the nursery so well, and the staff team have supported you both along the way. I shall share this with the team.

Fledglings Day Nursery is by far the best nursery in the local area. I have two children who attend full time so have really experienced every room and its staff. The care and compassion shown by the team is genuine, and I feel that my children are well understood. It is a purpose built building so
everything has been carefully thought out from toilets to sleep rooms. My children enjoy the meals, and most importantly, are happy and safe. The management is wonderful and communication is great - I like how they use the app as I am able to keep up to date with how my children are doing throughout the day. Staff are always willing to listen, and if issues arise, management are proactive to work in partnership with families to embed change and encourage growth. I like that there are regular inset days too as it means the nursery is dedicated to upskilling their staff which in turn impacts my children's learning and development. As both a parent and Early Years consultant, I highly recommend!

My son started Rainham Fledgelings in October 2023. He settled in quite well within a few days. Unfortunately, since starting, he has been continuously ill and missed many nursery days between November '23 - April '24, which resulted in him having to essentially resettle. We also had a change in key
person which went smoothly. Despite all of the disruptions for him, he seems very happy there and at times, doesn't even want to leave. The nursery is clean with great facilities. I particularly like the fact that they have a separate sleep room. Thank you to all the team for the care and support to date. A special thank you to a special lady for the kindness and warmth towards our son and for taking the time to ensure his well-being.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham)

Thank you for your review of our Rainham nursery. I am sorry to hear your little one had a wobbly start to his time at nursery, but it is so good to hear that he is now happy and settled and loving his time at nursery. The separate sleep room is lovely and gives a peaceful rest area for the children, while being regularly checked by our team. I shall share your thanks with the team and we wish you little one all the best at Fledgelings.

The care and development of my child are brilliant I always feel 100% confident they will look after my child. They do a variety of activities and my child always talks about what they have done that day. My child is so happy to come to nursery every day. That's all I can ask for.

Great nursery for for my grandson. Lovely friendly happy staff that go out of their way for the children. Fantastic activities that keep the children entertained. Outdoor space is fab too. My grandson is still settling in and is still unsettled but they make sure he has plenty of cuddles and reassurance.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham)

Thank you for your review and it is lovely to hear that the team are doing all they can to settle your grandson into nursery life. It is a big step for little ones to start nursery, and for their carers too! So having friendly staff offering lots of fun activities both in and outside will be a great way to engage children and help them settle in.

Our daughter has been attending Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham) since September 2023. We absolutely love it. She absolutely loves it! It’s clean, very well-resourced. They provide halal food and daily updates on an app with regards to your child’s feeding, nappy changing, accidents, medication etc.
The
staff are very warm, experienced and welcoming. We always feel listened to. They celebrate all sorts of special days, like Christmas and World Book Day, and take them on little outings. We’re so glad this nursery opened up so close to home.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham)

Thank you for a wonderful five-star review. Our Rainham team work hard to provide the best possible care and learning opportunities for the children in their care and your review shows their efforts are so worthwhile. The app used is a great way to keep the parents informed of their child's day at nursery and it's good to hear you have face-to-face interaction with staff each day too.

My daughter started in April when the nursery first opened. She is thriving at the nursery and loves all the nursery staff. All the nursery staff are so friendly and I feel happy leaving my daughter with them knowing that she is in a safe environment. I love receiving updates of my daughter's day or
any developments through the app.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham)

This nursery looks amazing and has such so much to offer, my daughter started at the nursery at 6 months of age and she absolutely loves it here. One of the biggest things I love is the fact that babies benefit from their own garden space. My daughter has made amazing relationships with all the staff
here and the staff here go the extra mile to meet her needs and both my wife and I agree that she is thriving under the care of the staff here.
The organisation the nursery belongs to is prompt with responding to communication as well as helpful and knowledgeable both locally and centrally.
The nursery uses an app, where I can see all of my daughter's intake and output as well as naps and incident reports and also receive updates on not just her progress but fun little messages and images that the staff believe would be of benefit to me as a parent.

Reply from Aimee Hume, Marketing Manager at Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham)

It's wonderful to hear about your positive experience with the nursery! The fact that your daughter started at such a young age and has thrived in the care of the staff at Rainham speaks volumes about the nurturing environment at the nursery.
The dedicated garden space provided for our babies is fantastic. Outdoor experiences are so important to a child's development, and having a safe and engaging garden is a bonus to the nursery.
The proactive communication through the app offers peace of mind to our parents and shows the nursery's commitment to honest and open communication. It's wonderful to hear the staff not only meet your daughter's needs but also go above and beyond to provide you with meaningful insights into her day-to-day experiences.

This was the first nursery setting my daughter attended and she settled into the nursery in no time. The support is so great and the nursery nurses listen to your needs for your child. Fledgelings Day Nursery helped us potty train my daughter from scratch and were amazing in helping us maintain this
at home. I saw a huge difference in my daughter’s development while she attended Fledglings and I have recommended all family and friends to join!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.965)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.965) out of 10 for Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham) 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.965 for Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham) is calculated as follows: ( (139 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.965

  • 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 Fledgelings Day Nursery (Rainham) is based on 12 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 12 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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

I have been the Manager at Rainham Fledgelings since it opened in April 2023. Before then I worked at our Hornchurch Fledgelings. Opening the new nursery has been such an achievement for myself and the team. We have worked hard together to provide a warm and secure environment for our families. I love nothing more than spending time in the playrooms getting creative and messy in activities with the children, and providing one to one support for children with additional needs. I am trained in Safeguarding, First Aid and have recently achieved a Tooth friendly gold certificate for the oral hygiene at the nursery.
