Review from Stevie (Mother of Child) published on 1 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Little Diamonds for 2 years. I have always been happy with the care she received there - staff are warm and fun, and deal reasonably with difficult situations. She has particularly enjoyed her time there since entering their preschool-age group- the activities she takes part
in during the day are varied, creative and support her development. I receive detailed feedback daily giving me a good sense of what she has been up to. Their focus on providing high-quality nutritious food is something I value, particularly as my daughter is such a picky eater at home! My daughter was recently seriously injured (not in the nursery, but over the weekend) and the staff were brilliant. Once she could return, they welcomed her back, providing closer attention to ensure her bandage did not get wet or dirty. They also spent lots of time with me understanding the detailed steps required to redress her wound if required. I always feel confident in leaving her in their care.

Really happy with the care my daughter is receiving at Little Diamonds. Brilliant settling in period, so she was able to transition happily. The staff are really attentive, welcoming and friendly. They seem to be very passionate about their jobs, so we feel really comfortable leaving our daughter with
them. I would recommend the nursery wholeheartedly.

Review from James H (Mother of Child) published on 28 February 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An amazing nursery with great staff and excellent leadership. My child is well looked after and have developed a lot from when he first started. There have been lots of new changes and developments to the nursery which has made the nursery 10x better.
I feel safe leaving my child in the hands of Little
Diamonds staff as they have never let me down. They are always welcoming and always there to help if needed. The management is very visible, hands-on and communicates very well with parents and the children.
The activities they carry out are excellent, as it allows the children to learn and enjoy at the same time. They have outside play which is encouraged throughout the year. This is really important for me and my wife. Some of the things they have at the nursery which I found really good was the mud kitchen in the garden and the water tables.
They also promote healthy eating which is one thing my family and I are trying to achieve. I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone.

Review from A K (Mother of Child) published on 19 September 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I can honestly say that the people who run and work at Little Diamonds Ltd are miracle workers. I was very nervous leaving my daughter, who was then 9 months old, with people she didn't know and in a nursery with other children. The staff at Little Diamonds supported my daughter and I right from the
start, helping to settle her in and then to support her with her early development. I was still breastfeeding when she started but there was no problem at all with me popping in to feed her or with me feeding her in a private room when I collected her after work.


The staff are committed to the babies, and the baby room is outstanding in my opinion. My daughter is now almost 2 and should be moving into the toddler room soon. I expect that she will be given the same amount of attention and her development has been great since starting at the nursery. At 22 months old she is a confident speaker and her physical development is also very good. I do credit the nursery staff with this.

My daughter started this nursery at 11 months, now aged 28 months. Staff are great, she loves the staff, enjoys cooking in the mud kitchen, playing dress up in the sensory room and learning activities. I can see the distinct progress attending this nursery makes to her social development.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.667)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.667) out of 10 for Little Diamonds Ltd - Forest Gate 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 4 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 4.875 for Little Diamonds Ltd - Forest Gate is calculated as follows: ( (42 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.875
  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 3.792 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Diamonds Ltd - Forest Gate is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.417
  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.
