Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has settled in quickly. The staff and the management team are very friendly and helpful. The nursery itself is very spacious and inviting. Communication and feedback from key persons is great if key person is not available there is always someone to give feedback at the end of the session.
Overall, very satisfied and definitely recommend it to friends and family!

Review from Emma S (Mother of Child) published on 22 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can not recommend Child First enough! My little girl has been attending for a year (since she was 9 months old) and she has developed so much in that time. The girls in all the rooms are friendly, hard working and have a genuine care for all the children, not just those that they are specifically
assigned to. She has been nurtured and loved as much as she would have been at home and she loves going to nursery every day. As well as the nurturing side of the nursery, she has also developed so many skills since joining. She has social skills that she would not have developed at home on her own with me, and she is a really independent little girl, happy to feed herself, entertain herself and play with others. I can't thank the team enough for making leaving my little girl every day to go to work an easy and pleasant experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the moment we first made contact, through to day by day attending nursery, all the staff have been friendly, welcoming and helpful. We received all the information we could need prior to joining and we always receive a full account of our child's day from our key worker! It is a happy, fun and
safe environment and we are so happy we chose Child First as our nursery. I go to work with peace of mind that our child is in the best care!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son is 18 months and he really likes it at Child First. He is happy to go in the mornings and is always happily playing when I come to pick him up. The staff are fantastic and form a real bond with each child. They keep an excellent record of his progress complete with photos and artwork he has
done. They have a range of different activities that I would be unlikely to do with him at home (mainly the very messy stuff!) so I know he is getting good stimulation and playtime when he is there. I feel very comfortable leaving him there during my working day and I'm really happy with the level of service that I've received from all of the staff there. I would highly recommend Child First.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.149)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.149) out of 10 for Child First Aylesbury Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.360 for Child First Aylesbury Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (18 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.36
  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 4.789 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Child First Aylesbury 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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.889
  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.
