Review from Katherine A (Mother of Child) published on 6 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Feeling slightly nervous about leaving our first child at nursery, we were struggling to find somewhere that we really liked. Orange Tree has been amazing in helping us all settle into our new routine. Our daughter loves her key workers, and often talks of them when she's not at nursery!
We love the
fact that there is plenty of inside and outside space for her to explore and play in, and she seems to have so much fun! Thank you for making a stressful choice so much easier.

Review from Sally F (Mother of Child) published on 6 January 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is a brilliant setting with brilliant engaged staff. Both of my children went here before starting school and absolutely loved it, so much so that they always want to go back in the holidays! The garden is amazing and indoors there is always lots going on. The staff take the time to get to know
your child so you get really good personal feedback. I can't recommend this nursery enough, I have never had any problems with them, and when my son was seriously ill they did so much to accommodate him and were so helpful. Definitely the best nursery we looked at in the area, there was no comparison which made our decision to chose it for our children very easy!

From the moment we first visited The Orange Tree Nursery we knew it was where we wanted our son to go to nursery. Everything about the nursery is excellent. Great staff and an amazing outside space are just two of the best attributes.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.529)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.529) out of 10 for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Mickleover 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 10 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 4.904 for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Mickleover is calculated as follows: ( (104 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 114 Ratings = 4.904
  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 4.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Mickleover is based on 10 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.625
  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.
