Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My great grandson enjoys coming to nursery and has developed leaps and bounds. The staff are very friendly and my grandson runs into play without looking back! We get good feedback every day about the activities he's done and what he's eaten. He has a key worker who sends us regular updates about his
progress. Thank you for taking such good care of him.

Mama Bears is a great nursery. The staff are all friendly and excellent with the children. My child has been there for 18 months now and really enjoys going.
The outside area is great for all weather and the quality of food is great too.

My son really enjoys going to the nursery and he loves his practitioners too. They are very friendly and always smiling. The food must be good as my son, who is a fussy eater, almost always finishes his lunch. The garden is a good size and they are always doing some activities. Highly recommend!

The staff at Mama Bears Crews Hole are fantastic, my little girl loves them. Always lots going on and will be disappointed when she leaves this summer. They've brought her on leaps and bounds and she's such a confident little girl.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mama bear's day nursery (Crew's Hole road) is a fantastic nursery. The staff are very friendly, professional and receptive to each child's learning needs. The activities set by the nursery are varied and most importantly fun which engage the children and encourage them to learn and develop.
Mama
bear's are very open about what they are doing with the children and are keen to involve parents. As such we receive regular updates throughout the day on what my children have been doing and a full handover at the end of the day. As a parent I find this very reassuring and is indicative of the openness and inclusiveness of the nursery.
I have two children at the nursery and both of them really enjoy their time there and look forward to going each day and I feel that their development has been enhanced by their time at the Crew's Hole Road nursery.
I would highly recommend this nursery to relatives, colleagues and other parents.

The whole nursery and staff is very good. Very clean nursery always polite very secured very welcoming. You can see your child's progress though eylog where you see pictures of only your child on your login detail. After your child has left, within three months it gets all deleted off so make sure you
get all photos prints before end of year term.

Mama Bears have been our families nursery for over 4 years, for 3 children. Excellent & happy staff = happy children. Absolutely no criticism of staff, care or premises. The only area/suggestion for improvement would be simpler invoices & a pay rise for your staff!

My child has grown so much by attending nursery, it has developed her more than I could of hoped. I am always pleased to hear the activities they have been doing and the meals are always healthy and filling. The staff are always friendly and it makes me feel at ease leaving my child with them.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.718)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.718) out of 10 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool Crews Hole 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 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 4.909 for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool Crews Hole is calculated as follows: ( (122 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.909
  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 4.809 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kiddi Caru Day Nursery and Preschool Crews Hole is based on 11 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 68 number of registered child places is 13.6. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.809
  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.
