Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter loves Kids & Co Nursery and so do we. The staff are amazing and many have been there for a long time so they know all the children well. Our daughter gets wonderful personal care and the children are encouraged to play well together as friends across the age groups. Kids & Co encourages
a friendly and family orientated atmosphere, and many of the parents know each other as a result. I am delighted at the daily activities they do, from their wonderful forest school to baking, to drama and football and learning how to make sandwiches. The children are happy, stimulated and very well cared for. I highly recommend Kids & Co.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attends kids & co and absolutely loves it. They do a lot of different and imaginative activities with the kids, often based on the children's interests. The outdoor space is good and they make full use of it. The settling in process was absolutely brilliant. We moved to the area and had
to leave our previous nursery which was also excellent. We tried to settle my daughter in another nursery at first, but it was a terrible experience and after a few days I decided that wasn't the right place for my little girl. Fortunately, this coincided with a place becoming available at kids & co, but I was quite nervous about going through the settling in process again. In the end, it was straightforward, the staff was really kind and patient and very soon my 3-year old felt safe and confident. Every morning she looks forward to going to nursery.

Review from Katharine K (Mother of Child) published on 8 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Kids & Co Day Nursery is the second nursery we have used. The first was fine but Kids & Co has been excellent. The setting is really homely and the staff are all very warm and caring, but also extremely focused on helping the children to learn a variety of creative ways. Our son had some behaviour problems
when our new baby arrived and the staff dealt with it excellently. They were calm, kind and positive, and solved the problem. Our son is very interested in space and the staff devised all sorts of space activities and involved all of the children, our son was thrilled. The forest school area is really educational. The children spend lots of time outside every day, which is unusual for London. Overall a brilliant nursery. We could not have found a better one and look forward to sending our daughter there.

Kids & Co is a great nursery. My daughter is very happy and settled and has progressed massively since joining, gaining skills to become more independent and learning to be curious about the world. The activities are imaginative and the children all look very happy. The staff are absolutely fantastic
and they happily engage the parents with information on the children and their day. I am so happy with the nursery I am not sure I want her to leave to go to primary school!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.699)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.699) out of 10 for Kids & Co Day Nursery 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.947 for Kids & Co Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (89 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 94 Ratings = 4.947
  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 4.752 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids & Co 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:

    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 = 3.8
    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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.952
  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.
