The Review Score of 8.8 (maximum of 10) for Magic Roundabout Nursery Walthamstow is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 8 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Magic Roundabout Nursery Walthamstow in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.604 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Walthamstow is calculated as follows: ( (61 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.604
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.208 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Magic Roundabout Nursery Walthamstow is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 24 positive Reviews (120 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 5 Reviews ÷ 24 Target = 0.208
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

I am extremely pleased with everything the nursery offers. My child is extremely happy here and I have keenly watched all areas of his personal and academic progress knowing that the staff are the key to all of this. I cannot recommend the nursery enough.

Our daughter has had a very happy and positive experience at Magic Roundabout. We are very happy with the teaching she has received and her learning experience. She loves the teachers very much and the teachers are very approachable for parents. She has developed in so many ways. She is more confident and balanced and looks forward to going into the nursery every day. Our experience of the Magic Roundabout has been fantastic and we would definitely recommend to others.
Regards,
Satisfied parents.

Both my boys attended this nursery and have now left as they are at school age. The staff are absolutely amazing and both my boys loved it there. I highly recommend The Magic Roundabout Nursery to any parent. If I was to have another child I would definitely be returning.

On the whole, my daughter really enjoys attending the nursery. The staff are great, really accommodating and friendly.
Dietary needs are well accommodated for. I'm always informed of goings on in the nursery. The security measures in place for picking up and dropping off are very good.
My daughter has been going there for 3 months and at this stage I couldn't ask for much more. Would recommend.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Sasha J (Mother of Child) on Sunday 4 June 2017. Relates to June 2017.
My decision to change my child's nursery wasn't easy and Magic Roundabout was the second nursery I visited during this time. But as soon as I walk in and felt comfortable with sending my daughter here. All staff are approachable and friendly on all occasions. They hold endless activities internally and externally during the whole year e.g. Visiting the local library, Park or supermarket. Making the whole time an adventure for my daughter. Arts and crafts is a constant and we always have interesting bits and pieces to take home. There are so many good points I could go on longer.
Just visit the nursery to see for yourself. Will be very sad in August to leave the nursery more so than my daughter herself.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Chloe C (Mother of Child) on Friday 11 November 2016. Relates to November 2016.
My son has been attending the nursery for nearly three months and has settled in well, staff are attentive and caring, and my son enjoys his time there. Sometimes it feels and looks like its organised chaos but I think that is generally a nursery environment. The nursery has a huge amount of space and activities which is one of the key things that attracted me to the nursery. The only negative is some of the toys are rather old and dirty, the nursery does feel a little dated and could so with a lick of paint and a thorough clean although with so many young children it can't be easy keeping it clean, however, my son enjoying his time and learning at nursery is important, happy baby happy mummy and daddy right .... keep up the good work ...

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Grace (Mother of Child) on Tuesday 8 November 2016. Relates to September 2016.
My son started attending the nursery in September and he loves it there.
The nursery tour was very well organised and the place is so clean.
The management there are very easy to approach and am over the moon with their opening and closing time as it takes me about an hour to travel to work and back and this fit perfectly.
Am very happy and satisfied with their teachers, curriculum, and my son loves it there.
Very spacious, clean and Reasonable fees.
