Review from Carla V (Mother of Child) published on 17 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Crystal Early Years is a fantastic nursery and it's incredibly convenient as it's over the road from Anerley Station. We're lucky to have it on our doorstep. My son has been going there since he was around 8 months old and seeing how happy he was there, straight away, really put my mind at rest. He
always smiles when he's dropped off in the morning and we always have a nice chat with his carers for the day when we pick him up in the evening.

Review from Rob M (Father of Child) published on 17 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our little girl (30-months-old) has been going here for well over a year now and she loves it. The team are great, their investment in the kids is genuine and there's consistency which has allowed the relationships to grow between child and carers and helped our child feel secure. Lots of home-cooked
food/and food choices and there's a good energy about the place.
I'd recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely five star care and provision. The staff are amazingly caring, positive and knowledgable about the interests, personal development and well being of our daughter. It was the same for our son. Both kids adored the setting; loved going. Can’t recommend it enough!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sending my son here was the best choice I’ve made, his previous nursery didn’t have the correct learning materials in place than Crystal Early Years does. I am delighted to say that this is an outstanding nursery and I guarantee my son will learn much better and quicker as you can tell they focus well
on the children. My son also comes home with dry clothes as they pay great attention to his potty training which I’m also glad about.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.547)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.547) out of 10 for Anerley Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 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 4.647 for Anerley Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (54 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.647
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Anerley Day Nursery is based on 16 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 = 3.9
    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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8, which has been reached with 16 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.
