Review from C B (Mother of Child) published on 10 May 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery is excellent and I am always confident that my daughter is going to be well cared for. Communication between home and nursery is good and on occasion, I have raised concerns about things at home (e.g tendency to tantrums) the nursery have helped follow up and manage. The menu has recently
been changed and has not gone down as well but again the nursery has been quick to address this and make changes to the menu. I could not recommend this nursery highly enough.

I regularly collect my niece from nursery and can see the huge difference attending nursery has made to her. She is an extremely sociable, kind, caring child who seems to thrive on the lovely activities and interactions with staff. Her nursery is amazing and I would recommend it to anyone.

I am very happy with the nursery. The staff are friendly and approachable and my daughter has settled in very well. I enjoy knowing what she has done and am well informed of meals, sleeps and the progress in development she is making. The activities and equipment is excellent and looking forward to
what ladybirds has to offer.

My daughter has recently started at the nursery having moved from another nursery. I could not be happier. The staff in the Butterflies room have been fab and made my daughter feel so secure and happy.


The level of care is far better than at the old nursery and daily routine is brilliant.


I have

no negative comments.

I am very happy with Knowle Green Day Nursery (Staines). I find the standard very high. My daughter's key worker is fantastic and has really helped her to settle in. My daughter's key worker should be rewarded for her fantastic attitude and care.

My experience has been nothing but outstanding at Knowle Green Day Nursery (Staines). My daughter started October 2017 and she is quite wary. After a few weeks, my daughter was relaxed and happy going in and this was down to the staff in caterpillars. They have the best interest in our children. I got
great feedback daily. Fantastic variety of meals. They do excellent activities and my daughter developed a lot from it. It was reflected in her photo's and comment on parent zone app. Highly recommend this nursery. Great leadership and management.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have been at the nursery over the last four years. Going to work is so much easier knowing that they are safe, happy and loved by the staff.


They both learnt a great deal, particularly in preschool and have/will start school well equipped.


Thank you to all the staff and management

team for our excellent nursery experience!

The nursery organised a trip to a pantomime for my son's class. He was very excited to tell us all about the princess and the witch. Also how they had to hold hands to get on the train. I was very pleased the nursery had gone to such effort to organise a fun day trip. A lovely memory for their last
Christmas at their nursery.

Both my children (aged 1 and 3) years attend Knowle Green Day Nursery (Staines), they are both extremely happy and love nursery days. They both love the staff and come home well fed and worn out from a day of fun.

My son has been at Knowle Green since he was 11 months old and I have seen him grow and develop at every room move. He enjoys his time at nursery, which is what you want to see. The staff are great, always receptive to feedback and open and honest.

I continue to be very pleased with the support my two children are receiving from the nursery and particularly the help of their keyworkers in assisting them to settle in after we spent time living abroad. I am also really pleased with the development they have shown already after just being back for
a month. Thank you!

Knowle Green nursery is wonderful, set in scenic environment, with enthusiastic, passionate staff. I am impressed with the level of service and care provided to my daughter who started at 14 months. She has now settled well into the Ladybird class. As a part-time working mother, the transition to the
life of nursery has been eased by the professional manner conducted by all at Knowle Green Nursery.

My son is being cared for in the nursery very well. He has been happy from the start. We started nursery when he was seven months and I must say that the staff are very friendly, caring and have always made sure they tell us what happened during the day (no matter how many times you call them when you
are worried). I strongly recommend Knowle Green to any parent. Also, they have many activities that encourage them to explore the world around them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've used this nursery for the last six years for my three children. The kids have loved every minute of their time here, and I think that reflects on the staff who are excellent and happy to go the extra mile for the kids. The management team also deserve praise for their leadership of the nursery,
and their desire to see that each child achieves its potential.

The staff at Knowle Green Day Nursery (Staines) have been amazing with my son settling in. They have contacted me a few times throughout the day to reassure me that he was fine. I have found ever since my son started nursery he has become more social with other children and adults and his speech has
progressed and has become more confident.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Knowle Green Day Nursey 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.859 for Knowle Green Day Nursey is calculated as follows: ( (332 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 383 Ratings = 4.859
  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 Knowle Green Day Nursey is based on 32 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 133 number of registered child places is 26.6, which has been reached with 32 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.
