Review from Oriana B (Mother of Child) published on 21 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of our children attended Buttercups in Ealing and absolutely loved it (as did we!). All of the staff were welcoming, friendly and caring, and played a large part in our children's development and increased confidence. The two kids have rather different personalities, but the nursery easily accommodated
both and allowed each to thrive in their own ways. Buttercups organised a lot of fun activities that allowed us (as parents) to be involved - e.g. the Christmas concert, Valentine's Day party, etc. - and the kids really enjoyed having Mum and Dad along. Our children learnt lots of new made-up songs, many of which taught them about manners, safety, hygiene etc., which is a lovely approach to teaching important concepts to kids!


Thanks to everyone, I highly recommend Buttercups in Ealing! :-)

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended the nursery from just before 5 months until 4 years when she left for primary school - she has had the most wonderful experience here, formed some lovely relationships with the very caring staff and has developed so well that she's easily ready for school despite being one of the
youngest in the year. As well as phonics/numbers, they've made sure she has physical skills, practical ones like dressing/undressing herself and so many creative activities. After a period a few years ago with high staff turnover, the current manager (and deputy) have made sure everything runs really well in terms of early years curriculum and everyday experience for children and parents. I am genuinely very sad that this phase of my daughter's life is almost over and I would highly highly recommend it to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.911)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.911) out of 10 for Buttercups at Ealing 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.911 for Buttercups at Ealing is calculated as follows: ( (340 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 370 Ratings = 4.911
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Buttercups at Ealing is based on 31 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 31 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
