  • Gooseberry Bush Day Nursery, Kemble, Cirencester
Gooseberry Bush Day Nursery is situated between Tetbury and Cirencester and provides care and education for children aged between three months and five years.

The warm and welcoming setting is set within a large single-storey building featuring high specifications and facilities to ensure a safe and stimulating environment for all children.

Childcare fees include nappies, meals and everything your child may need during their time at the nursery.

The team of childcare professionals work hard to provide all children with the opportunity to develop their skills and knowledge during their time at the nursery.

They offer wide and varied learning experiences, including extracurricular activities, free of charge, to extend development, taking into account individual interests and needs, placing each child at the heart of the curriculum.

Gooseberry Bush believe all children should be encouraged as individuals and be given the space to develop as creative competent learners within an inspiring space. They work on trying to make the environment different by offering open-ended natural resources for the children so they can add their imaginations and creativity.

They have unique outdoor areas and natural spaces encouraging the children to have positive learning experiences in all weathers. They recognise the impact that being outdoors can have on your child's learning and development.

The on-site chef prepares a rotational menu to ensure that each child has a varied diet that is nutritionally balanced.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son was quite unsettled at first the staff bar non were wonderful. Patient, calm, with advice rather than being bossy and, made me feel that he was in good hands, even if I was upset about leaving him. He has settled now and loves it and I am very grateful to them all.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.959) out of 10 for Gooseberry Bush Day Nursery, Kemble is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 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 4.786 for Gooseberry Bush Day Nursery, Kemble is calculated as follows: ( (67 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.786
  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 4.173 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Gooseberry Bush Day Nursery, Kemble 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 74 number of registered child places is 14.8. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.8 = 0.473
  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.
