This is an outstanding nursery. I couldn't feel more reassured leaving my 2 girls here aged 3 and 2.
The manager is amazing, so friendly, caring and super helpful. Nothing is too much trouble.
The staff in all rooms are all equally as fabulous in every way. It's evident that they are passionate about
children and their work at the nursery. They are caring, patient, helpful, informative and so nurturing if any of the children are upset on arrival. I feel very reassured leaving my girls here, I know they are safe and well-loved by all of the teachers. Lovely nursery because of great leaders and an amazing team. I really appreciate all the work they do and love getting pictures of the children throughout the day.

My little boy has been going to West Looe Nursery since he was 8 months old. He absolutely loves going to nursery and comes home telling me all about his day and how much fun he's had with his friends. The ladies that work here treat the children like they're their own kids which is so lovely to see.

My daughter has been coming to this nursery for about 6-7 months.
She started in the baby room and they transitioned her to 2-3 room without any fuss or noticeable behaviour changes, she’s had no issues. She’s thriving, she loves coming into nursery without any problems.
5 star, I recommend it to
anyone who has children - newborn-4 years old.

Both of my children have attended West Looe Nursery over the years, my son is currently there, he enjoys going to the nursery and what they provide with learning, and engaging things to do and play with.
I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a place to put their child for
child care.

Caring, friendly and very professional. Both my children went here (now just the younger one) and I go to work knowing they are in safe hands and will be happy. They are always thinking up new ways to keep the kids busy and active.

They are all very welcoming and kind! The management and staff have always been very accommodating with any of my requests.
My daughter loves going to nursery, playing with the other children and the childminders. I believe that is a good sign!

My two girls love nursery. I love how kind the staff are, I feel like they genuinely care for the children and I feel very safe with my children being in their hands.
I love the flexibility of the times, the communication between staff and parents and the feel of the place.
Starting nursery my youngest
has cried going in, but within 10 minutes I usually get a picture or a message telling me she's settled and happy- that means a lot that they are thinking of not only the children but the parents too.

Thank you so much for your comment, having a strong relationship with our parents is so important to us and for the children in our care and we strive to develop those relations.

Brilliant nursery, great staff in a wonderful setting. The nursery are great with every single child, as well as great at keeping all the parents up to date on what your little ones have been up to during the day. I wouldn’t put my children anywhere else.

West Looe Nursery is a lovely friendly environment to be in. My children have gone here for a few years now and have always been so settled and happy. I am always reassured too by the friendly caring staff and feel so comforted that my children are always safe and happy in the staff’s hugely capable
hands.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.916)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.916) out of 10 for West Looe Nursery 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 West Looe Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (145 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 154 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 West Looe Nursery is based on 13 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 13 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.
