Review from Bryony I (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely amazing nursery with lovely staff. My daughter spent just over two years here and my son for about six months, sadly we’ve moved house and it was too far to travel to and from, otherwise I wouldn’t hesitate to have kept my children in their care up until school age. They were also amazing
at catering to my daughters' needs as she has eczema and allergies. If you are looking for a good nursery in the area choose Cornerhouse.

Review from Samantha S (Mother of Child) published on 9 July 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have been going to the Cornerhouse since they were 9 months old, my eldest is soon to go into year 2 and my youngest is enjoying his last few months at this Nursery. For 7 years, the girls have been absolutely amazing in helping shape and nurture my boys and they have loved them
like their own. I know that my boys wouldn't be the amazing children they are today without the care and support they have received from all the staff here. They always have interesting and engaging activities for all the age groups and I love hearing about all the things they have done each day. Both my boys have incredibly different personalities and the girls here have always handled both their best days and worst days with nothing but patience and kind words. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough and I know my family will miss the girls and this nursery a lot when it is time to leave in September. Might be time to have another baby to send him/her here!

I cannot speak more highly of the management and staff. My daughter is completely prepared for reception in September, thanks to the dedication and support of the staff. She has developed both academically and socially with structured activities and behaviour boundaries as well as fun. Every day my
daughter says can I go to preschool today.
As a parent the support I have received in her development, any question or concern raised by myself or the staff is always dealt with professionally and in a supportive, friendly manner. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff.

Review from Nichola (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We now have 2 children at Cornerhouse Nursery. I was worried about my younger daughter starting at Nursery on my return from maternity leave when she was 11 months old as she was rather clingy at that stage. However, she took to Cornerhouse immediately and I need not have worried at all, she has bonded
well with her keyworkers. All the staff have been very caring. The facilities, particularly the updated garden, are great.

Both of our children really enjoy going, and choosing Cornerhouse Nursery was one of the best decisions we have made with regards to childcare.

Our 3 year old loves his time here, he has been going since he was 10 months and each room transition has been smooth. The staff are all lovely and thrive on having a great relationship with children and parents to make it the best experience possible for all. So many wonderful activities to do and
our little boy is very tired after a fun-filled and educational day! Thanks, all!!

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.324)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.324) out of 10 for The Corner House Day Nursery 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 7 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 4.976 for The Corner House Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (82 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.976
  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 4.348 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Corner House Day Nursery is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.8 = 0.648
  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.
