My daughter started early this year, the team have been very supportive during the settling in period, reassuring us when needed and making every effort to be flexible to her personality and routine. The app is very easy to use and communication is great.

Absolutely fantastic nursery. My little boy has been going since he was 6 months old. The staff always reassure me and keep me updated. I honestly can not recommend this nursery enough. The food they give the children is also fantastic.

My daughter started at DVLA nursery in May 2024 and she settled in very well, she vary rarely has any upset episodes when we drop her off and her development has come on leaps and bonds since she started. Me and her dad get regular updates via the App which is very important to us to know how she is
doing during her days in nursery. My daughter has developed a very close bond with Nursery Team however all staff are absolutely amazing with her. We are confident in leaving our daughter in a happy and caring environment and I would highly recommend them to everyone.

Our daughter has been attending since July 2023 and even though she still has her moments at handover, she loves it there. We're able to track her day and see her progress on the app, which is great. The staff are really quick to respond to any queries or concerns you have and really put your mind at
ease. Our daughter has just starting interacting with other children, which is so nice to see. She knows the nursery staff by name and is coming on so lovely. We do believe the nursery is a big part of how well she's developing. We've recently started potty training and this has been made even easier with the help of the nursery.
The meals/snacks are assorted and healthy, which again is great, as we're keen for her to have a balanced and varied diet. She always eats well when she's in the nurseries care.
We intend to keep out daughter at the DVLA Day Nursery as long as possible.

My son started attending DVLA nursery at the start of February and we could not be happier with how well he has settled. He is yet to get upset on drop off and for us that just tells us everything.


I get regularly updated on the app with photos or a track of his eating/drinking/nappy changes/naps..

which was really important to me as I knew he was doing ok and I could try and keep a similar routine on his days at home.


The staff and management are honestly outstanding and from the initial tour we just knew that we would be happy and it was the right environment for our son. Everyone is just so kind and informative, wanting to ensure they have the right routine for your child.


The staff are incredibly caring and considerate. They create lovely relationships with the children which reassures us as parents, as you know you are leaving them with someone they trust.
It's a genuinely lovely environment which I would recommend to anyone looking for childcare in the Swansea area.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.121)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.121) out of 10 for DVLA 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 8 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 4.990 for DVLA Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.99

  • 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 4.131 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for DVLA Day Nursery is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 121 number of registered child places is 24.2. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 24.2 = 0.331

  • 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.
