Two Aberystwyth nurseries have been rated among the best in Wales.

Parents have rated Plas Gogerddan and Little Angels as two of the top 20 nurseries, out of 386 early years settings in Wales.

The top 20 nurseries in Wales received an award from the leading day nurseries reviews site, daynurseries.co.uk

The awards were based on the nursery’s reviews from the children’s families and carers.

The nurseries were rated on overall standard, facilities and outside space, learning, resources and equipment and ICT, care, activities, staff, food and nutrition, management, cleanliness, safeguarding as well as value for money.

Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of daynurseries.co.uk, said: “We would like to congratulate Plas Gogerddan Nursery Gogerddan Childcare and Little Angels on being rated by parents as top nurseries in Wales!

“Being chosen as one of the best nurseries by family and carers of children that attend the setting is a huge achievement."

Emma Healey, managing director of Plas Gogerddan Nursery, said: “We are very excited to be named in the top 20 nurseries in Wales.

“This means so much to us at Gogerddan Childcare as we are very proud of our reputation and the strong relationships that we build with the children and families. 

“Every staff member works so hard each and every day and on so many occasions go above and beyond their job role."
