My little one has been attending S4YC @ Northwich since 2022 and has various things they have needed support in and the staff have helped them so much to reach milestones, develop speech and so much more, I couldn't have asked for much more with the support we have received as a family. My little one
couldn't be any happier and loves ( asks to go to ) nursery.

My daughter has been attending since April 2023 and we initially had a lot of separation anxiety however through the loving care and guidance of the team she absolutely loves going to nursery each week, telling me all the names of the staff and her friends on the way! My daughter has made it very clear
to us at home that her favourite person in the world is her key worker. Being a vegan with allergies, I was apprehensive about sending my daughter to daycare but can honestly say that the team go above and beyond with her food choices and she eats better at nursery than she does at home. It’s always nice too, to see the manager mixing with the children and knowing all their names, it goes to show what a lovely team they are!

I enrolled my daughter here in July 2023 and being a first time mum was worried about leaving her to go back to work, but thanks to the lovely, amazing and caring staff at S4YC @ Northwich, they made this transition for my daughter and me a breeze. My daughter loves going to nursery and I can’t believe
the development she has made since she started. I also love the fact they get to go out on little trips every now and again to the local parks or to go and feed the ducks etc. I can’t recommend this nursery enough, they do anything they can to accommodate your child’s needs and the staff are always so welcoming and friendly.

I can't rave about this nursery enough. My son has settled in so well and loves attending. He loves to tell me about all the staff and his little friends who he is going to see. They put on amazing stay and plays and other activities. They have gone above and beyond for the month of December and made
it really magical.

Since my daughter has been attending S4YC @ Northwich Nursery she’s absolutely thrived. She once was a child who never left my side at playgroups and was always too shy to play with other children however since starting in February 2023 till now she’s a completely different. I cannot thank all the staff
at S4YC @ Northwich Nursery enough for caring and providing support for my daughter. The facilities are amazing the meal plans for the children are excellent and overall it is an amazing nursery and I could not recommend it enough to all my friends and family. I have never once had a problem with anyone or anything! The manager and everyone at S4YC are the best team. I cannot wait for another year of my daughter exceeding expectations at nursery.

My son has attended here since he was 9 months old. I was extremely anxious about sending him to nursery at such a young age but the staff there are absolutely amazing. He has the best time there and he absolutely loves it. The staff are always so friendly and approachable and the bond they have with
the children but also the parents is just lovely. The fees are really reasonable to say you get everything included and the amount of activities, fun days and experiences they provide for the children it really is fabulous.

I have enrolled my son for daycare from May 2023.
After coming from India, we moved to the area and started with daycare.
The staff are well organised with a very positive attitude. I can see an immense difference in my child.
I would recommend S4YC Northwich to anyone looking for daycare in this
area.

The S4YC Northwich nursery is an incredible environment for toddlers. Our child has been attending for over a year now and we've noticed significant positive changes in their overall development. The staff members are both friendly and highly professional, making it a nurturing place for kids to thrive.

My son has been attending since he was 11 months old and is now 2.5 years old, and loves it here! The staff are lovely and supportive and follow the children’s routines, where possible. The nursery environment is fab, and there are lots of great resources to support learning and play. The outdoor space
isn’t the biggest, but it’s enough and again, has great resources! The nursery includes parents regularly in events, and staff keep us informed of how our son is getting on. Would highly (and have!) recommend S4YC @ Northwich.

My daughter has been attending nursery since she was just under a year old (now 3). She is so happy there, it feels like a second home to her. All of the staff are nurturing and supportive and they provide her with care, attention and positivity. She is greeted every morning by a friendly staff member
who makes her and me feel welcome and comfortable. The key workers are communicative and update us with any changes and relevant information. My daughter is always excited to tell me about her day when she comes home from nursery and I love to see photos of the exciting activities and experiences that the nursery provides for the children. I would recommend S4YC to anyone looking for a nursery in the area and I feel lucky to have found such a warm, wonderful and happy environment for my daughter.

This facility is by far the best! I have had 3 children all go to various different settings and couldn’t recommend this one enough! My youngest absolutely loves going and adores the staff, even ones that don’t work in his room. Outside of the setting if we see anyone out and about my boy will run to
them and give them a big cuddle! They build such a brilliant relationship with the children that just helps settle them and makes them feel so safe when going to nursery (my older 2 wish they went here).
Over the time of him being here, we have had a few complications, the management and staff are so helpful in every situation, they have listened to my problems and we have come up with resolutions quickly. They’re willing to change things around to suit the child’s needs. I could go on but by far one of the best nursery’s around!

Great Nursery. All the staff are lovely. I like that they treat you more like family rather than just a pay check like some bigger nurseries do. There are plenty of things going on all the time for both children and parents. Early start also is a bonus as it works well with my job. Overall I would definitely
recommend this place.

I am delighted to express my satisfaction with the exceptional care and support provided by S4YC @ Northwich. From the moment my son enrolled, it has been a truly positive and enriching experience. One of the standout features of S4YC @ Northwich is the outstanding commitment and support demonstrated
by the staff members. The recent parents' evening was both informative and a testament to the staff's keen observation and dedication to my son's developmental progress! The atmosphere at the nursery is also wonderful. The indoor and outdoor spaces are thoughtfully designed, providing a safe and inspiring setting for children to explore and thrive. I recommend S4YC @ Northwich to any parent seeking a nurturing, educational, and enjoyable experience for their child. The professionalism, care, and commitment shown by the staff make the nursery truly exceptional, and I am grateful for the positive impact it has had on my son so far.

Daughter enjoys the nursery and looks forward to going to nursery on a daily basis. All staff have been supportive of every need of my child. My daughter comes home on a daily basis having enjoyed her nursery meal cooked by the chef and always has extra if wanted. My daughter enjoys the daily activities
and making new friends, this has been the perfect space for her to do this.

My daughter has been enrolled at Northwich since she was 8 months old and is now 13 months. All the staff are very welcoming and so friendly. The nursery is always clean and there’s always fun themed activities going on. The staff are fantastic if I’m in need of advice (being a first time parent). There
is always clear communication too. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting too!

Staff are amazing and caring. Management is great! I couldn't imagine her in any other nursery at all. Always looked after her like she is their own. Never less! Toddler's review: plenty of toys to play with and the chef is a great cook. Lots of snacks to go around. My child also likes the activities
they do, they can get messy and loud.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.906)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.906) out of 10 for S4YC @ Northwich 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 44 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 44 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 4.906 for S4YC @ Northwich is calculated as follows: ( (476 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 524 Ratings = 4.906

  • 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 S4YC @ Northwich is based on 44 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4, which has been reached with 44 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.

At nursery, my favourite thing to do is singing and dancing, or read a story with the children.
