Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Great experience! My daughter loves to go to the nursery. Overall everything is smooth. The only thing that I don't like- the staff changes quite regularly. Everybody is very nice and competent but my daughter is quite attached to her key person who is leaving! Other staff left as well but overall great
facilities, great food, great staff.

I highly appreciate the care provided to my son who is 13 months at this nursery. They helped my son settle and he is a happy toddler. He does not cry when we drop him in the morning and is a happy chap when we collect him in the afternoon.

My little one absolutely loves coming to nursery. All the staff are very friendly and caring. My daughter always talks about the staff and children in her room and always asking when she is next in.
You get a very welcoming feeling which is the thing you want when you walk into the nursery.

Review from Alice (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My little boy started at Asquith as a 10-month-old and remained until he started primary school. It is a beautifully equipped nursery site and the garden renovations made a real difference. The best thing about the nursery was that I always felt my little one was given affection, supervision and care.
There were particular "stars" over the years, all of whom went out of their way to challenge and teach as well as to care. Areas that I felt could be improved included quality of written communication, the degree of education and structure as children got older and above all, staff retention and contact as to when they moved on. But overall it was a good experience albeit poor in the first six months and I was grateful to many there.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.436)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.436) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Finsbury Park Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 11 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 4.902 for Bright Horizons Finsbury Park Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (121 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.902
  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 4.534 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Finsbury Park Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 11 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 103 number of registered child places is 20.6. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.6 = 0.534
  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.
