Review from Claire S (Mother of Child) published on 4 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has attended First Class since he was 1 and is now 4 years old and preparing to leave for school. The team have been fantastic through his whole journey and we are so happy we choose them!
He loves going and has made some lovely friends. All of the First Class team know him and his character
and he is comfortable with them all.
The team are friendly, caring, and so approachable and always happy to help.
The skills he has learnt whilst with First Class are astounding, they led him through potty training which he mastered without issues. And as he prepares to leave he will be leading with valuable skills such as being able to do basic reading, writing and sums. It blows us away that he is 4. The classroom learning is such an invaluable tool. The team always put lots of thought and effort into making crafts at key events such as Christmas, and provide regular updates on how your child is doing. Overall we couldn't be more grateful for the team at First Class!

My daughter settled brilliantly into the nursery and is thriving. Staff members are incredibly helpful and the communication is brilliant. We love seeing observations of what she's been up to and we look back at the photos together and she enjoys telling us all about her day!

Review from Stacey H (Mother of Child) published on 3 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child started attending just before she turned one and has made such amazing progress thanks to the love, dedication and care of the staff at First Class. She has moved up to the next room, and the transition was done in such a seamless way that there was no distress or confusion. My child actually
stands at the front door (even at the weekends) and asks to go to school. Staff are aware of the child's needs, and interests and strive to help them develop in line with the Early Years standards. I am so pleased to have found this nursery.

I have one child in the nursery currently and one who has now moved to school. This is a fantastic nursery. We moved during the pandemic and they managed my son's integration into a new setting perfectly. Both my children are very different personalities and their key workers have always encouraged
them in different ways - really tailoring to the individual child. All the staff are super caring and lots have been there many years. They are also awesome at getting them ready for school.

I cannot fault this nursery. My son thoroughly enjoys his days in the nursery. Pricing is very reasonable in comparison to surrounding nurseries. Communication is great and all done via an easy-to-use app which is a godsend. Sent updates on his progress and photos of activities he has taken part in
on a regular basis.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
First Class is a lovely nursery. The staff are really friendly and place the children at the heart of what they do. My child settled in really well having started at 11 months in August 22. The nursery nurses take time out to spend with each child and this is really evident in the way my child has developed.
The management team are awesome. They respond to queries really quickly and are always happy to help.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been going here since around 8 months old, he's now just two years old and absolutely loves it. The staff are amazing, warm, friendly and honestly like a 2nd family for him. He talks about them at home and says 'I had fun' and 'I'm happy' and we couldn't wish for any more than for him to
be happy. His speech is amazing for his age, he can count to 10 and is thriving. Highly recommend this nursery. We get regular updates and staff respond quickly to any queries. Great work by all, Thank you!

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.940)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.940) out of 10 for First Class Day Nursery Ltd 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 7 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 4.893 for First Class Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.893
  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 4.047 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for First Class Day Nursery Ltd is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 101 number of registered child places is 20.2. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.2 = 0.347
  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.
