Review from F K (Mother of Child) published on 11 September 2019 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended this nursery for 7 months. She settled in well and bonded with the staff quickly. The room leader was caring, understanding and provided comprehensive feedback on my daughter's development. They guided me through potty training - constantly reassuring me (as a first-time mother,
this was daunting for me). The staff were genuinely concerned about my daughter's well-being, over and above what was required of their jobs. Recently they advised me on sleep training too! My next child will certainly attend Honey Pot House!

Always had a very pleasant experience, they have been fantastic with my daughter and she has developed in every way since being there. Staff are great and very thorough. Management are very hands-on and also very good. My daughter always has a variety of fresh food, the credit has to go to the chef
they have.

Review from Mr & Mrs B (Father of Child) published on 1 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have only high praise for the team at Honey Pot House. Our first born attended from just 9 months. Seeing how our baby was growing in confidence and ability was amazing and this was purely down to the dedication and support offered by all at Honeypot House. Our second little girl now attends and
we have seen the same great results, which is fantastic to see that the consistency is still there. I would always continue to recommend Honey Pot House to anyone who wants their child to learn and gain confidence from a young age and not just to be child minded. Leaving our children with the team at Honey Pot has always felt like leaving them with a trusted family member. For those who are looking for a nursery we recommend you go and met the Honey Pot House team before making a decision. Well done and keep up the good work Honey Pot House Team.

My son has attended Honey Pot since he was 8 months old. He is now 2. When my daughter was born, I knew that Honey Pot would be perfect for her too. Friendly, kind, helpful and supportive, the staff go above and beyond for the children in their care. Both my children have flourished at this nursery
and I have nothing but praise for Honey Pot. I love knowing that my children are not only looked after but safe, educated and loved. Thank you Honey Pot.

Review from Nicola B (Mother of Child) published on 8 November 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little girl has been since she was 9months old and absolutely loves it. As a teacher myself, I spent months trawling Ofsted reports and there was no need. I knew on the first visit this was where I wanted her to go. The staff are absolutely brilliant, kind, warm and have caring hearts. Not only
to the little ones but to the parents too. They always help and advise you whilst always leading care, lead by the parent's wishes.


The range of activities our daughter does amazes me and are fantastic. The food is brilliant, all made fresh on site and it offers a healthy balanced menu in which my daughter has tried things she hadn't at home. Parent communication is outstanding with written and verbal feedback given daily, with the use of an app and tapestry, where you can view photos and videos of your child, seeing what they have been up to day to day. There isn't enough space on this to truly give Honey Pot the endless positive comments we have, so we advise to go and see it for yourself, you won't be disappointed.

My little boy is two and has loved going to Honey Pot House Day Nursery since he was 9 months old. I always feel guilty working fulltime but seeing how much he loves going to nursery really helps. The food's freshly cooked every day. Staff are like a little family and the kids get up to so much fun
every day. Couldn't be happier.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our child has been attending Honeypot since she was 13 months old. The staff are kind, friendly, approachable and great fun and you can tell they share a special bond with the children they look after. She also gets to experience things at the nursery which she cannot do at home. She has made lots of
friends and is always telling us all the fun things she has done at the nursery. We are thrilled in how she has come on and is developing. Her speech and new phrases/words amaze us. Our child has thrived in this very well-resourced nursery and makes rapid progress in all areas of learning and development due to the well-planned activities and enthusiasm provided by staff. One thing I would like to emphasise is the flexibility this nursery offers which other nurseries may not provide. When there are times we need to swap our child's nursery days or request additional days, the owner has always tried her best to accommodate our request.

The manageress and staff work extremely hard to ensure that the nursery is run well and ensure that a loving and supportive environment is maintained. My daughter has flourished at the nursery!
The staff who work there are caring and provide fun, stimulating and an educational environment.
Great

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Honey Pot House exceeded all my expectations. It was clear to me from when I looked round that it was extremely well run and a wonderful environment for children. The range of activities provided for the children is varied and excellent - so much so that my older child wants to join in when we go to
pick up my younger child. The food is all made on site and also excellent - this is a big bonus for me. I am so glad I chose this nursery.

This nursery is a wonderful nursery and they always listen and try to make your child comfortable and attend to their needs. My daughter attended for 3 years and now my son has been there for a year so far. They also ask if there is anything they can do to help your child with any concerns you may have.
My children have learnt a lot and my son has even learnt a little sign language and french! The managers are great and the nursery staff are lovely. It's a homely nursery and the kids have fun as well as learning day to day.

We are very satisfied with the care all the staff at Honey Pot House give to our child. it is clear that the staff are thoroughly committed to their roles and our child is very happy in a warm and caring nursery environment. We chose the nursery based on a visit and also reading online reviews and the
positive Ofsted report.
We are confident we made the right choice and we are impressed by the range of activities and continuity of staff. Our child is treated as an individual and the staff have helped them to blossom and develop. Our child is inquisitive, happy, confident and Honey Pot staff have contributed to this.

Honey Pot House is a fantastic nursery. As well as great activities to keep children entertained and help with their learning and progress the best and most crucial part of this nursery I feel is the staff who have a genuine care and interest in the children. My daughter has been coming to this nursery
for over 2.5 years and has a real fondness of the staff. The nursery has lots of space and a great outside area, plus the food they provide is another great attribute to the nursery.

Our son spent a wonderful 3 years at this homely and caring nursery. The staff are very approachable as are the owners. They made the transition to the local school very easy and equipped our son with all the social tasks to cope with his new adventure.

Honey Pot House Day Nursery is an amazing environment for a child to grow and develop. All staff are fantastic. They create a safe and friendly space for children. Our son loved every day at Honey Pot House Day Nursery and it was very difficult to say "goodbye" once he was ready to go to "big school".
Facilities and outside space are very good, children have many toys to choose from and all activities are planned ahead to make sure children have fun and thrive becoming more confident. Thank you, Honey Pot House Day Nursery.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.056)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.056) out of 10 for Honey Pot House Day Nursery (Shirley) 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Honey Pot House Day Nursery (Shirley) is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5
  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 3.056 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Honey Pot House Day Nursery (Shirley) is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.056
  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.
