Review from Sara W (Mother of Child) published on 16 August 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son started here in the 1-2 room which he settled into very easily and loved all of the staff. He is now in the 2-3 room which he enjoys each day and is always full of smiles each time I collect him, he loves the food each day too. I have found the staff very helpful with any questions I have regarding
my son and what he has done or been like that day.

Review from Marie (Mother of Child) published on 2 August 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has been going to Bramleys since she was a year old and I truly feel she has benefited from attending the nursery. I feel that my child is safe at this nursery and feel that she gets a huge amount of stimulation through games and playing with other children. She has bonded well with the staff
members and gets to try new foods from week to week. Bramleys is also in a beautiful village location and is surrounded by countryside which is great for walks with the children. My child loves to point out the cows from time to time!

My child has settled in so well and made a lovely group of friends. The care she receives is brilliant and she always comes home telling me about her lovely activities she has done with her carers.

Review from A_D (Mother of Child) published on 2 August 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has been attending this nursery two days a week for 18 months now and he absolutely loves it. He started in the 1s-2s room which he absolutely loved and is now currently in the 2s-3s room and thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery. He was such a shy little boy and since being at this setting
he has gained so much confidence, which is all down to the staff at what a fantastic job they all do with the children. He has learned so much and I look forward to him continuing his time throughout the nursery and preschool. I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parents.
A very happy mummy!

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.712)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.712) out of 10 for Bramleys Day Nursery Ardington is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 5 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 4.967 for Bramleys Day Nursery Ardington is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.967
  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 3.745 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bramleys Day Nursery Ardington is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 102 number of registered child places is 20.4. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.4 = 0.245
  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.
