Review from H L (Mother of Child) published on 21 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Merry Go Round @ Greencroft has been nothing short of exceptional in their care of our daughter since August 2024. Every interaction we have had with every member of staff has been positive, they truly care for both the children and the parents. Our daughter absolutely adores coming to nursery. She
has been supported so beautifully in making new friends as well as academically in all of the Early Years areas of learning. The Emilio Reggiano approach is such a fantastic way for early years children to learn, we love seeing all the updates of her learning journey through the app. Nicki and Lisa have been amazing at supporting our family throughout our daughter's time at Merry Go Round. Dawn, Clare, Karley, Sylvie and Emily to name a few, have all made such wonderful relationships with our daughter. We would highly recommend Merry Go Round to anyone looking for nurturing and educational childcare for their children in Hereford.

Review from Lauren S (Mother of Child) published on 26 October 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been in the snuggler's room for a year now and we love it. I love their room with natural and realistic things to play with, and his teachers are great. He always has a good time, they share daily photos and updates with parents. He's happy to go in and happy when he gets picked up, and always
seems well cared for.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.072)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.072) out of 10 for Merry Go Round @ Green Croft 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 Merry Go Round @ Green Croft 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 3.072 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Merry Go Round @ Green Croft 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 69 number of registered child places is 13.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.8 = 0.072
  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.
