  • Mother Goose Day Nursery, Aldershot
Mother Goose Day Nursery has a warm and inviting atmosphere, recreating a home from home environment where the children in their care will feel secure and happy. They are open from Monday-Friday throughout the year except for public holidays and one week during Christmas.

The nursery is open for 51 weeks of the year catering for ages 2 years to 5 years where there is an option for full days (8:00am-6:00pm) or half days (8:00am-1:00pm/1:00pm-6:00pm).

The Nursery consists of one main playroom which includes the extension of a conservatory giving more space for the children to explore. The nursery also has plentiful outdoor space so that learning, and development can be taken outside. The rooms have maximum numbers of children and the right staff to child ratio according to the guidelines set out by OFSTED.

The main rooms hold a maximum of 33 children aged 2 years -5 years. The ratio for this age is 1:4 for 2 years and 1:8 for 3 years plus. The children in their setting are starting to become more independent and are encouraged to develop their self helps skills more widely.

The children help to prepare their own snacks and take turns in serving snacks out to each other as a way to build on their self-confidence. Weekly diaries on ey-man are used as a way of communicating with parents and carers.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It's a new nursery but has experienced staff and management. The nursery has good facilities and kitchen, loads of toys. All staff are very friendly and has a personal approach. It's a well-managed nursery with brilliant staff.

Review from Beverley P (Grandmother of Child) published on 29 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very caring staff, helpful and friendly, they have made my granddaughter very relaxed about going to playschool, they are nurturing and kind. There are plenty of activities and the meals are nutritious. My granddaughter loves her food and is encouraged to try everything, and seconds, and sometimes thirds
are available to her! She used to hate playschool so much but being here will make the transition to infant school so much easier! She has made lots of special friends and loves her key worker.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.926)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.926) out of 10 for Mother Goose Day Nursery 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.926 for Mother Goose Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (265 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 284 Ratings = 4.926
  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 Mother Goose Day Nursery is based on 24 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 33 number of registered child places is 6.6, which has been reached with 24 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.
