  • Bright Horizons Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool, Milton Keynes
Bright Horizons Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool is surrounded by wonderful gardens giving it a cosy and homely feel. There is a four-week settling in period which is free of charge and the nurseries own nutritiously balanced meals cooked on-site.

The baby room is a cosy and quiet area with lots of wooden toys to keep babies entertained. There is a 'no-shoe' policy in the baby room to ensure that their play area is kept to a high standard of cleanliness.

In the nursery and toddler room, children participate in messy play, ICT and learning about personal hygiene with toilet training and hand washing.

The pre-school has a wide range of resources such as an interactive whiteboard to teach lessons and key skills to help your child prepare for school.

The large garden gives access to hours of fun with a climbing frame, sandpit and bike track.

The nursery has gone above and beyond to cater for my child who has to have a no-dairy diet. My child has settled well and the staff, are really caring. Management will put you at ease as soon as you go for your show-round.

Everything as expected. Great nursery. My son really enjoys himself here and he will be sorry to leave when he starts school. He always talks about the great food and how much fun he has with the staff here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A wonderful nursery in a lovely homely environment. Both of my children loved their time here. We have found the staff to be very kind and caring. Communication with parents through email, mail and detailed discussion is great. The nursery manager is fantastic. Our children's learning journey books
are treasured by us. My 7 year old son still loves looking back through his. I thoroughly recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.140)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.140) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 8 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 Bright Horizons Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 96 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 4.265 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Wavendon Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 8 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 = 3.65
    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 65 number of registered child places is 13. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.615
  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.
