  • Little Learners Day Nursery - West Croydon, Croydon
Little Learners' Day Nursery in West Croydon, established in 2009, cares for children aged 6 months to 4 years.

The children can have access to the garden directly from their room so that they can play outside whenever they want. The garden is used all year around in all weathers and the children are provided with rain suits and winter and summer hats.

The nursery uses an online observation and development tracking system which parents can access and make comments on. A nursery sports day and barbecue is held once a year for parents, children and staff to enjoy. Parent questionnaires are sent out twice a year to ensure that the nursery is providing a good service.

Children enjoy meals that reflect a multi-cultural society. The menus are planned to encourage good healthy eating habits and an awareness of where food comes from. The nursery accommodates children with dietary requirements e.g. vegetarians, those with dairy intolerance.

Review from Miriam B (Mother of Child) published on 14 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff are very professional and my daughter really enjoys going to nursery. She's also learnt a lot and is still learning. She knows her teachers' names and talks about them at home all the time. She loves nursery.
As a parent, I am so happy to see my child happy and the fact that she is so
excited to go and begs me to take her there, what else can I ask for? I would definitely recommend Little Learners Nursery to everyone.

Review from Shanice S (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a great nursery and I am very happy with my choice to send my son there. He was shy initially and really quiet but now he has made lots of friends and has come out of his shell a lot since being there.
The children all get along well with each other. The staff are very friendly and welcoming.
I
feel content leaving my child at this nursery and no that he is being well looked after.
Great team all round and happy children.

Review from Hana I (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child's key worker was very helpful and provided me with important information about my child's behaviour, improvement, weaknesses and also advice on how to improve it. What I found very helpful was a list of what a child must be able to do when attending a reception class.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.300)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.300) out of 10 for Little Learners Day Nursery - West Croydon is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 3 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.514 for Little Learners Day Nursery - West Croydon is calculated as follows: ( (19 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 35 Ratings = 4.514
  2. 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 3.786 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Learners Day Nursery - West Croydon is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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 = 3.25
    2. 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 28 number of registered child places is 5.6. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.6 = 0.536
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
