From the moment I walked into Sunflower Nursery, I was certain it was the perfect environment for my son’s development. Spotless, secure, and super kid-friendly, it had me at hello. The manager and the crew have this warm vibe that just feels like home. It's been a year and wow, my son's chatting up
a storm and bouncing out the door to school every day. If you're on the hunt for a chill spot that’s safe and fun for your kids, this is it. Big shoutout to the manager and director for making Sunflower Nursery the amazing place it is.

My 3-year-old girl started nursery and daycare a few months ago and we are very much delighted and satisfied about the tender loving care she receives from her home away from home. Day by day she improves her confidence, gross and fine motor skills and many more. Most importantly, we are very pleased
to see she enjoys playing with her friends when we go to pick her up in the evening. The manager, director and the entire staff are simply amazing. Thank you very much for taking care of my child and I highly recommend this lovely nursery for parents who are looking for a safe place for little minds to grow.

I have had a very positive experience with the nursery. In the start, I was worried for my son settling in, but the friendly and trained staff have made it very comfortable for my son to settle in. I really appreciate the way the manager and director involve themselves with the kids.

My daughter has attended Sunflower since June and she absolutely loves it there! The staff are professional but friendly and it does feel like you are dropping off your child with family. The nursery is clean, spacious and very welcoming.
I am kept informed throughout the day of how my daughter's day
is going, such as meals, sleep and nappy changes as well as photos of activities via an app which I find very helpful. I am also given further details when I pick her up. I am impressed with my daughter's development - she is coming on in leaps and bounds being at Sunflower, I highly recommend this nursery.

Would highly recommend. An amazing day care, trusted and reliable care providers. Extremely lovely and caring. The staff take time to connect with each child.
At every visit the staff notify me with a lot of details about my son's day at the nursery. He comes home happy and well fed. He's 3 and is
able to tell me about his day, he is always so excited to tell me that he had a great day and can't wait for the next day to play with his friends.
The day care provides a beautiful garden, a lot of play space and most importantly a beautiful connection with my son. I am so grateful to have such wonderful people to support my child while I go to work.
The prices are affordable and reasonable. The owners are so lovely. Thank you for being part of my son's growing mind and building amazing memories and experiences with him!

As a parent, finding an ideal nursery for your child is crucial, and I am elated to share our wonderful experience at Sunflower Day Nursery. Over the past four years, this nursery has become a second home to my daughters, a place where they feel cherished and integrated. The staff at Sunflower Day Nursery
are not just nice and kind; they genuinely care about each child's well-being and development. What stands out most is the patience and understanding of the staff. My daughters, along with other children, have never returned home upset or unhappy, which speaks volumes about the environment they create. A notable change occurred with the arrival of new owners. They are incredibly helpful and exhibit a remarkable flexibility in various matters, always putting the children's and parents' needs first. For any parents considering a joyful and safe environment for their child, I highly recommend Sunflower Day Nursery. It's a place where your child will thrive, feel loved.

Sunflower Day Nursery are truly amazing! It's wonderful seeing my son get excited about coming to the nursery; sometimes, he doesn't want to leave. Both management and staff really make a huge effort to engage with the kids in every way. Sunflower Day Nursery is really committed to providing a safe,
fun, and loving environment for the children, and I'm very thankful to the manager and the whole team at Sunflower Day Nursery.

My son started this nursery when he was 11 months old. I was so worried about how he would settle over here. But the staff are so good and friendly. My son enjoys his nursery days, and he is always happy here. The staff always help my son in his personal development. Now, whenever he goes out, he is
not scared of new people and plays with other kids. (before nursery whenever he sees new people, he was crying). My oldest daughter has baby play sessions; they were quite surprised to see so much positive changes in my son. The health visitor was so happy with his personal development. I am so happy that my son goes to this nursery, and I am glad I choose Sunflower Day Nursery for my son.
Thank you to Sunflower Day Nursery for being such a friendly and very happy place for kids and for making them feel at home. They always let me know what he ate, play, nap time. They always email me photos of him enjoying his nursery day. The manager and staff are awesome.

My baby has been with Sunflower Day Nursery from the very beginning. I viewed several nurseries before coming to Sunflower, and no one else cut it for me. When I leave my child with anyone, it’s like leaving a part of my heart, and I had to be more than comfortable with who I would trust her with. The
manager and the rest of the staff surpass every expectation. They treat all the children with such love and empathy. The food is all home-cooked and, more importantly, very nutritional. My child has fun, and I love the communication from the nursery, showing me everything else. I wouldn’t ever put her anywhere else.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.950)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.950) out of 10 for Sunflower 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.950 for Sunflower Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (172 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.95

  • 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 Sunflower Day Nursery is based on 15 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 15 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.
