The Review Score of 8.1 (maximum of 10) for The Chase Nursery Holland-on-Sea is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 1 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 4.884 for The Chase Nursery Holland-on-Sea is calculated as follows: ( (227 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.884
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 3.167 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Chase Nursery Holland-on-Sea is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 = 3
Target of 6 positive Reviews (30 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 1 Reviews ÷ 6 Target = 0.167
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

We couldn't be any happier with how well our daughter is progressing at The Chase in Holland.
She has settled in so well and likes all of her teachers.
The change in her is notably positive, she is growing in confidence and forming good relationships. We could not have picked a better nursery to send her to!

My son loves nursery. He is always talking about the staff and children and is excited to go. When he was emotional starting, I found the staff happy to comfort and support him, which put my mind at ease. I could call and it was no trouble to check in.
He comes home, singing and saying so much that he has learnt. He maintains his manners and kindness. Overall, very happy with the care and comfort of The Chase.

My daughter and son have both benefitted from being at the wonderful Chase Nursery and so have we as parents. The team are supportive and caring. Managed by excellent people who are continuously improving the service and never loose sight of the most important aspect - the child. A great place to start your child's formal education, they cater for everyone's individual needs and help your child to develop at the right pace for them. I wish everyone could have the opportunity to be a "Chase child".

We found the staff friendly and caring towards the children, and noticed my daughter's improvement throughout the term, also when we approached the staff about what we found worked at home they seemed receptive to approach. Although as I was not present during the school time, I felt there wasn't as much progress with my daughter after being diagnosed with autism and the fact she was then being given sole teacher, so to speak as one to one? but we do understand the difficulty retaining my daughter's very active mind :)

The Chase Nursery Holland-on-Sea is a safe, caring environment, where my daughter is thriving and learning something new each day. She is full of excitement every afternoon when collecting her, about her day, adventures and learnings. The staff are very dedicated to their jobs and the children. I feel very comfortable leaving my daughter all in their care and I am more than happy with all that she is learning and how relaxed and happy she is when I leave her.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by Harriet A (Mother of Child) on Wednesday 5 October 2016. Relates to September 2016.
Both my children have attended The Chase, one is now at school. I have never had any issues or problems regarding anything at The Chase. I feel confident and happy leaving my son at the nursery. The staff are all friendly and reassuring. They know my son and his character and his likes and dislikes.
I think the setting is fantastic, plenty of activities and fun is had each time. I think the fact that staff take the time to get to know each child/family is what gives me reassurance, they make you feel involved. My son has lots of fun and support and I couldn't have asked for a better nursery experience.

The Chase Nursery Holland-on-Sea is a breath of fresh air, as an NNEB nursery nurse myself I thought I would never find a setting to the standard I expect. Staff are friendly, helpful and go that extra mile to be warm, welcoming and caring to staff, parents and children. Parents are welcome to call/view at any time as long as safeguarding measures are met, a relaxed environment where children learn through play with excellent resources, snacks, stories, singing provided and all my boys love coming here, the only improvement there could be is a cold store area for packed lunch or a kitchen on site for meals. Keep up the outstanding excellent work and thank you so much :)

I am extremely pleased with both my boys progress whilst attending nursery.
The staff are welcoming and always helpful.
The garden area is exceptional, providing a variety of outdoor activities. The boys are always happy to go into nursery, they even want to go on weekends!

My son always comes home and is happy. He always talks about what he has done. The outdoor area and resources are brilliant! My son brings home pictures he is proud of which you can see he has done. Lovely staff who are very friendly and experiences.

What a brilliant nursery! After my first son was so well looked after here, there was no question that my second son would also attend. Welcoming staff who are all knowledgeable. I feel confident every day dropping my son here to enjoy various activities and have lots of fun!

My third child now attends The Chase. All of my children have been very happy here. I feel they are very well cared for and I always feel happy to leave them. My daughter always comes out telling me she's had a fun day at nursery when I collect her!

Staff always welcoming and all know my child's name straight away. My child, if on an off day is always assisted and made to feel at ease. I have noticed a big improvement in my child's confidence and learning abilities since joining The Chase. She always leaves full of energy and very happy when I go to collect her I have no worries over her safety/ well being when she is at The Chase. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Anna A (Mother of Child) on Friday 30 October 2015. Relates to October 2015.
My son went from childminder setting to nursery setting pretty easily due to the outstanding nursery it is! The staff are amazing they are very supportive to children of every ability friendly and professional. Everywhere is immaculately clean - well organised and very engaging for the children with different work and play areas. I loved the fact that the older children aren't separated so my child with speech delay has learnt so much from mixing with the older children. They also help children get school ready which is a brilliant head start. Would recommend without a hesitation. Welldone Chase staff x x

We decided to move our daughter from her original after school club and try The Chase as it was nearer to her school. We have never looked back! The staff and facilities are great they provide and our daughter is very happy there. I don't think much learning goes on at the after school clubs but that doesn't bother us as our daughter likes to have a play after school.

I think The Chase is brilliant, my daughter is a little unsettled at the moment when I leave her and the staff are brilliant at getting her involved and reassuring you she will be fine. I think the facilities within the nursery are brilliant too - lots to do in the garden! I think my daughter will be very happy here and shine. I have no worries as far as the learning goes, I can see they teach very well and I look forward to her coffee morning with her key worker to see how she has been getting on.

The Chase Nursery has been an amazing nursery for both of my two children. The care had been second to none and they both come home so happy at the end of the day. They have both learnt so much and cannot wait to go in each morning. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this wonderful nursery.
