The staff are friendly, welcoming and assertive, and all the children are well looked after and cared for with their emotional and physical needs being met. My son's keyworker, who has been absolutely brilliant
with the settle in process, and my son has really taken a liking to her and grown very fond of her. Thank you all at Sparklers Nursery.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our son at the beginning was a bit shy, he cried after his mom every morning and in the afternoon when I picked him up (because he was expecting his mom to collect him). After a while, his behaviour improved and made us as parents feel less stressed. Also, we have noticed his English language improved,
he also recognised numbers, colours and shapes. Additionally, he obsessed his love for singing songs. Thanks to all the staff from this nursery!

My daughter loved her experience at Sparklers Nursery, she started in September 2023. The staff are kind, friendly and very supportive to the children and parents. I have lots of pictures of my daughter's time and development and she does many crafts throughout her time at Sparklers for memories. Also,
I am very satisfied with Sparklers and I do recommend it to anyone.

My daughter absolutely loved her experience at Sparklers Nursery, I’ve had no complaints regarding the team or the environment since my daughter started in September. The staff are kind, friendly and very supportive to the children and parents. The friendships she’s made with the children as well as
the practitioners will be missed dearly. I have lots of pictures of my daughter’s time and development throughout her time at Sparklers for memories. Overall, I am very pleased with Sparklers and I do recommend to anyone.

I want to start by thanking two particular members of staff for the great care and attention that they show my daughter. Also, to all the staff and to the nursery itself for the great place that they have created for our children. I love all the feedback and updates that they give daily. I would not
trust anyone else with my daughter. The place itself is very well maintained and well kept. My daughter has learned a lot and is very happy every day when she sees that entrance door. Thank you!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.726)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.726) out of 10 for Sparklers Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 45 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.726 for Sparklers Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (412 Excellents x 5) + (106 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 533 Ratings = 4.726
  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 Sparklers Nursery is based on 43 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 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 43 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.
