One of the best nursery's! My son has gone from being 8 weeks old, as for most mums it's a huge worry, this nursery completed put my mind at rest and to say he is the most clever, independent and caring little boy is an understatement and I believe a huge part is him being at this nursery from such
a young age. Not only do the nursery look after your child but their support and care for your child and the support for parents to is also remarkable. My little one loves going and loves all the staff and children, such a happy place and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery!

They also have a family app that tells you what your child gets up to while at nursery nappy changes, naps and also food diary of what your child has eaten at nursery. My son loves going to nursery and has flourished and developed so well since being at Daisy Daycare.

Daisy day care is an amazing nursery full of happiness laugter and love. Children are definitely not just a number here and are valued as individuals learning to grow independently and confidently. My little girl will be leaving to start school in September and I can't thank the staff enough for all
their care, attention and enthusiasm that has helped her grow. My experience of staff has always been friendly and professional and the whole team work together so well it's very family orientated and personal. Communication of care and activities are always updated daily in the app and I've always had great communication about fees and all my messages are always responded to in a timely mannner. Over 3 years of my daughter attending I have never had any issues what so ever. Thank you to each and everyone of the daisy day care team My daughter will miss you so much and I so will I. Fantastic nursery!! I would recommend it to anyone.

Daisy daycare is a home from home setting and has a cute cosy feel. My little boy has excelled massively since starting here last September! The children are happy and content each time I drop my son off which as a parent is so nice to see. The care provided by Daisy Daycare is next to none, when my
little boy became ill while in their care they acted amazingly and provided not only support to him but to myself and his dad too. We will be forever grateful of the girls at Daisy daycare!

Amazing nursery, couldn't ask for more!
My daughter has come on so well since attending and I can see how happy she is via updates on the app throughout the day.
Different activities are great and regular feedback on her development and achievements are great to read.
Room workers seem to really
take an interest in each individual child and get to know their personality and uniqueness. Highly, highly recommend.

I always love collecting my granddaughter from nursery. It's such a lovely place. The staff are so warm and welcoming. I love seeing all the displays with the children's art work. There are always lots of new things to discover. My granddaughter loves showing me what she has done and the staff are so
lovely and always have time for questions and tell me everything that my granddaughter has done and had to eat.

Sent my little girl to Daisy Daycare as an extremely anxious Mum who held onto her baby as long as possible due to a difficult start to her life. She had a very upset start at Daisy Daycare due to being upset leaving me- as was I leaving her. The girls was amazing with her- patient and did everything
in her best interest to help her settle. There was no rush at all in how long it took. I now have a little girl who wanders in and i'm lucky if she says bye! She has an amazing time every time she goes. I don't trust just anyone with my little precious girl- but these girls I really do. It takes very special people to win her round and for her to feel comfortable- all the girls do this. She is absolutely thriving there, and we are so so happy with her progress. The girls are great at keeping in touch and sending messages through the day. They're great.

Our daughter fully enjoys her time when at nursery. Lots of planning and effort goes into the activities that staff do within the room. And it doesn't go unnoticed by parents. The staff are really approachable with any question you may have also.

My grandson loves his time at nursery. He has learned and developed so much. The staff are fantastic with him and have taught him so much. The staff put lots of thought into the activities, which my grandson always enjoys and he loves his regular trips out. The meals and snacks are excellent. It's reassuring
to know how well looked after he is.

Our son was orginally in a different nursery but as a family we decided to move him to daisy day care in September 2024. It's 100% been the best move for our son. His speech, confidence and his overall happiness has greatly improved as he's almost unrecognisable.
He has a speech delay for his age
but with the support of his key worker and staff he now confidently chats away. He loves the staff and talks about them at home. They help me when I have needed it and the communication is excellent. They go on trips into the community and at Christmas they went to the panto.

Possibly the best nursery I've ever come across. It's such a difficult time leaving your baby and going back to work Daisy daycare and the staff make that feel so easy even to sending you away with a parent pack on the taster day with cups of coffee, tissues and a biscuits showing their understanding
of parents feelings. Everyone in the nursery from the cooks to the nursery staff to management are so caring and really put their all into the children. It hasn't been an easy transition for us with my little one having so many infections and illnesses and requiring surgery daisy daycare care and the staff where so supportive throughout this time. The cooks have also catered to his needs in terms of foods and make him his own separate meals when he can't have what the other children are having. The staff are wonderful and really look after the children as though they're their own I really can't praise them enough and I feel so at ease leaving my child in their capable hands.

My son loves this nursery. The staff are great and he has formed lovely bonds with many of the staff members. They always have fun learning activities planned and my son loves to come home and tell me what he has learned. They have helped him grow in confidence as well as learning ready for school.
I can't fault them - I am so grateful I have such a safe and fun environment in which to leave my son.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.963)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.963) out of 10 for Daisy Daycare 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 46 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 46 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 4.963 for Daisy Daycare is calculated as follows: ( (526 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 546 Ratings = 4.963

  • 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 Daisy Daycare is based on 46 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 49 number of registered child places is 9.8, which has been reached with 46 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.
