As parents who work full time, you only hope for a home-from-home for your child's childcare and Buttercup Corner certainly provides that.
Buttercup Corner always has a positive vibe. They offer support for parents as well as the children, all staff members are happy to listen and offer advice if requested.
My
daughter's confidence and social skills have blossomed within the last 6 months and I feel she is ready to move onto the next step of moving to school for reception, all thanks to the staff members preparing her for that by building her confidence, routines and general discussions on the topic of school.
She enjoys all the meals on offer and the trips to the gym, supermarket and library (to name a few).
I highly recommend Buttercup Corner.

The talk of leaving for big school in this review makes us feel a little sad. It comes around so quickly!
Thank you for your glowing report and for all that you have said about the staff and the nursery itself.

Both of my children have been to Buttercup Corner since they were 9 months old, it’s an excellent nursery with such lovely caring staff.
My children have always been so happy going to nursery every day - and what could matter more than that!

I'm so glad I chose this nursery for the care of my son. They provide personalised care for every child that attends and help each child to become happy, healthy and self-sufficient children. The fact they have a dedicated SEN lead is something that most nurseries do not provide and they were amazing
with my son's delayed speech.
The staff cannot do enough and genuinely love working there - I don't think I have ever seen any of them not smiling!
The children often go exploring the local area including regular trips to the park around the corner and weekly gymnastics sessions.
Food allergies are also well provided for.
The outstanding rating by Ofsted is more than deserved and I would recommend anyone in the area send their child here.

Reply from Kimberley Woodward, Managing Director at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery

Aw, thank you so much for this review - we will make sure our staff all get to read it. You are right, they are all amazing and work so hard.
Smiling is in their job description.

My little girl has attended Buttercup Corner since March 2023. She has loved every single minute of it, settling in was so easy as my daughter was so excited! The staff are amazing, their communication with me has been excellent since day one. My daughter's room is well laid out, she has a variety of
healthy foods whilst there, she adores her key workers and tells me the names of all her friends in her room! She has come on leaps and bounds since starting at Buttercup Corner, her development milestones are all being hit and her personal and social needs are all being met. I cannot thank everyone at Buttercup Corner enough for how amazing they treat my daughter and communicate/involve me each step of the way!

Reply from Kimberley Woodward, Managing Director at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review - we are really pleased with how happy you are with all aspects of nursery life.
We love that your little one talks about her time with you at home.

The best nursery around, no question about it! My oldest son attended Buttercup Corner from the age of 2 until he went to school (now attends holiday club). He has Downs Syndrome along with other additional needs and he absolutely thrived beyond my wildest expectations whilst under the care of the manager
and her amazing team. Whilst at nursery, he learned to crawl, stand, sign, talk and feed himself. The staff poured everything they had into him and his success and he definitely reaps the benefits now he’s at school. The nursery is beautifully set out with each room and outdoor space tailored to the age group it holds. The catering staff provide nutritious meals and snacks and healthy eating is heavily encouraged. The senior management team is one of the strongest I’ve seen! My baby has just started and the positive impact they’ve already had on him is amazing. If I could bottle up the love that this nursery gives every child and carry it with me, I absolutely would!

Reply from Kimberley Woodward, Managing Director at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery

Oh my goodness. What a review. Thank you so very much. We are so pleased you have chosen us again for your second child - we absolutely loved it the first time around. Your review says it all, we had such a great time watching your eldest son grow and develop and can't wait to see your new addition do the same.

All of the girls at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery have made myself and my foster child feel welcome, comfortable and feeling like I am very informed in how my child is throughout the day.
Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, as a whole, and I know that my child is safe, secure and extremely happy
in their care. This makes leaving him much easier knowing that he is well cared for.
My child has had delay in his speech, he is well monitored, encouraged and supported in trying to bring this on and I feel that he has already made huge progress in the short space of time he’s been there.
Buttercup Corner is a wonderful place and I feel lucky that my child has access to such a wonderful environment.

My granddaughter is now 9 and has been at Buttercup Nursery since she was a year old. Buttercup has been the most reliable, dependable and trustworthy nursery. You cannot pay for peace of mind, but this is what we have when my granddaughter is left in the morning for breakfast club and when she is collected
from school for the after-school club. We have seen Buttercup grow and develop over the years, and they really do deserve their recent Outstanding Ofsted rating. The staff work hard and go above and beyond. We are lucky to have such a lovely nursery on our doorstep!

Reply from Kimberley Woodward, Managing Director at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery

Thank you so much for taking the time to write your reply, we are so honoured to have had the last 9 years with you and your family, watching your beautiful Granddaughter grow. Breakfast club consists of dance choreography and constant shows, what a better way to start the day!
Thank you to you and your family for choosing us year after year to provide you with your childcare.

Buttercup is an outstanding nursery.
The staff are all experienced, friendly and amazing with the children. Communication with parents is 10/10 with daily reports, monthly newsletters and regular parent stay-and-play sessions.
The nursery rooms are well planned with all rooms having access to safe
outdoor spaces. The facilities are modern and well maintained and most importantly a safe haven.
My daughter has attended Buttercup since 8 months old and has transitioned through all learning rooms. Her development has flourished whilst at Buttercup and there are so many varied learning opportunities. The nursery activities include weekly yoga, gymnastics, trips to the library, even Spanish lessons!
We are so grateful to have a place for our daughter at this nursery and would recommend to anyone.

Reply from Kimberley Woodward, Managing Director at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery

You gave us 10/10 for communication with parents, thank you so much for this, it is something we have worked so hard on this year.
Providing a safe haven for every child is at the top of our priority list.
Thank you so much.

Buttercup Corner has been a fantastic nursery from the beginning of my child's learning journey right up to the present day. My child is happy going to the nursery and talks about staff there positively which reassures me that sending them there is the right decision.
I can't believe how much my child
has learnt in the years he's been there, the staff put so much effort into supporting them and bringing them on, not just learning-wise, but socially.
The activities that the nursery provides throughout the terms are brilliant! The gym, to the supermarket, the library, and trips out. Not to mention the activities they provide for parents to be involved in; stay and plays, Christmas parties, and parents' evening.
Overall, it really is a nursery with the children at the heart of everything!

My daughter has been registered with Buttercup Corner Day Nursery since January 2023 attending the before and after school club. The environment is outstanding and aesthetically pleasing with ever-changing themes in line with seasonal occasions and diverse celebrations. The staff are consistently professional
and approachable and are happy to accommodate any wishes I have the best they can. My child has only spoken positively of the time spent and is always showcasing her work and activities completed. As a lone parent who is full-time working it is a relief knowing my child is comfortable and content with the staff and the care provided.

My son has been coming to Buttercup Corner since September 2022 and he has loved every minute of it. There is so much for the children to play with and learn from. I do not have to worry when I go to work because I know that he is in safe hands. Every member of staff is attentive and caring towards
every child. The communication between the nursery and parents is faultless. I would highly recommend Buttercup Corner.

All 3 of my children attended this nursery and now the holiday club. The development of the children is exceptional, they really do put the children's needs first. The activities keep them entertained all day and they really enjoy going each day to the club. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Reply from Kimberley Woodward, Managing Director at Buttercup Corner Day Nursery

Holiday club is the best part about the holidays. Endless hours of fun with new and old friends, day trips out and exciting activities in the club room. All summed up in your lovely review - thank you.

Buttercup Corner is an excellent nursery, my child started as a 9-month-old baby and I was instantly made to feel at ease with a look around the nursery and meeting staff. My child had a transition/settling-in period which allowed him time to adjust before I returned to work. The nursery is a lovely
environment and very appealing to children. The staff are so friendly and caring they go above and beyond. The progress my little one has made in the past 12 months is phenomenal and this is mainly down to his time at nursery. The communication with staff and parents is fantastic, daily report cards emailed, telephone conversations, parents evening and the use of the online learning portal allow me to see what he is up to in nursery on a daily basis. I feel completely at ease leaving my little one in such a caring and nurturing environment, where staff care as much about my little one as I do. I could not ask for a better nursery or start to his educational journey than Buttercup Corner.

Our experience of Buttercup Corner Nursery has been amazing. They are always doing amazing things that bring on my child's development.
The nursery promotes healthy eating they educate the children by taking them to the supermarkets and letting them choose fruit and vegetables, this teaches the children
about healthy eating.
The staff are always helpful, going that extra mile to help my child feel happy at nursery. I would highly recommend this nursery to all the parents I know.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.984)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.984) out of 10 for Buttercup Corner Day Nursery 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 67 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 67 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 4.984 for Buttercup Corner Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (790 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 802 Ratings = 4.984

  • 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 Buttercup Corner Day Nursery is based on 67 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 67 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.
