Review from A W (Mother of Child) published on 9 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been going to Hopsctoch Preston park since she was 6 months old. The staff continue to show such care and compassion towards my daughter and have always made me feel at such ease throughout her time there. As a very anxious parent, the nursery staff have made me feel at ease and comfortable
with all aspects of my daughter's nursery life. My daughter has an allergy so although I have to provide her own lunch and tea, Hopscotch have made every effort to include her in crafts and other fun activities, providing her with many alternatives at snack also which is so lovely. My daughter loves to come to nursery and gets super excited on her nursery days, we travel from Newhaven to get there so the travel is definitely worth it! Alongside the nursery practitioners, the managers of this setting continue to support me and my daughter which have made life changes more easy to manoeuvre through. Thank you all for the support and love you continue to give my daughter

Hopscotch provides a wonderful environment for our little boy. The variety of activities, and the blend between learning and play, is perfect for him. The team in Red Room are also fantastic, and have developed a genuine bond with our son.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have two children in Hopscotch Preston Park, I am so happy with the care they both receive.
My eldest was very shy and found it difficult to be away from me, the carers in each room have helped her gain confidence and have contributed to the bubbly little girl I see every day.
If there is ever
something we need support with as parents, the teams are so supportive and are always forthcoming with solutions!

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.347)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.347) out of 10 for Hopscotch Children's Nurseries - Brighton 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 3 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 4.944 for Hopscotch Children's Nurseries - Brighton is calculated as follows: ( (34 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.944
  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 3.403 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hopscotch Children's Nurseries - Brighton is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 98 number of registered child places is 19.6. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.6 = 0.153
  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.
