We have had such a positive experience with the team here at Head Start. My daughter loves coming to nursery and always talks about her friends and the staff. Would highly recommend the nursery to anyone.

My son has been with Head Start for over 3 years and has had the best experience you could ever want for your preschooler. His confidence and social skills have all been expanded through his interactions at nursery. The staff are brilliant and will be sorely missed when he leaves for school.
Reply from Harjit, Digital Marketing Executive at Little Garden The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-SchoolHi, thank you for leaving a review, great to hear your son has grown in confidence.

We've been so happy with how our son has settled into the nursery. He's been here now for a year and absolutely loves it. We can't recommend the staff enough - they are lovely and the nursery has such a family feel.

Review from Joseph L (Father of Child) published on 20 June 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My two children are both at Head Start Barnet. They have recently had a refurbishment of the garden and they have said they are going to do a lot more which is great. My children are extremely happy, my son is thriving in the baby room and I am very happy with the new management so far.
Reply from Andy Morris, Chairman at Little Garden The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-SchoolHi Joseph, thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review. I'm glad you like the refurb of the garden, we are looking forward to sharing photos of the work done inside the nursery as well.

Many thanks.

Review from Hywel C (Father of Child) published on 25 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son is very happy here. His key workers seem attentive and have formed a strong relationship with him. They have pushed forward his learning in all the key academic areas such as math and language, as well as socially. The staff have helped come up with plans to work on behaviour problems when they
occur, which has really worked to help him grow kinder and gentler. Their communication about what he's learning is regular, thorough and he loves sitting down at the end of the day to see the photos they've taken. I'd strongly recommend Head Start Day Nursery Barnet.
Reply from Andy Morris, Chairman at Little Garden The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-SchoolDear Hywel. Thank you so much for your lovely comments about Head Start nursery. The team are doing a fantastic job, their care and nurture for all the children shines through and I am very proud of each and every one of them, particularly during this last, very difficult year. It is of great comfort to me that you are extremely happy with the care we provide for your son and that he feels safe, happy and healthy everyday in the nursery. With warm and safe wishes for 2021.

Review from Brayner F (Father of Child) published on 25 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have had three children attend Head Start Day Nursery Barnet for the last seven years, having looked at competing nurseries in the Barnet area, I am happy to have selected Head Start Day Nursery Barnet. The staff are great and at the end of the day that is what matters, so you know that your children
are being well looked after, fed and entertained. Meaning that when you pick them up they are shattered but happy at the end of the day. You can always find a place with more rooms, purpose built or with a bigger garden. However, Head Start Day Nursery Barnet use the space they have effectively and they have crucially key people that care and care passionately about child care. As a parent you know when your child is happy and I have no hesitation in recommending Head Start Day Nursery Barnet to anyone looking.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having put my older son, now seven through Head Start Day Nursery Barnet and I am still so happy with the care and education that my daughter receives! All the staff are always smiling and welcoming, no question is too big! Both my children loved going there and learnt so much socially to prepare them
for school! Being a key worker, I found the nursery extremely supportive to me and my child through both lockdowns. I felt assured my child was safe continuously, a lovely nursery and great first step!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.811)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.811) out of 10 for Little Garden The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-School 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 16 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 4.911 for Little Garden The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (176 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Garden The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-School 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, 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.
