Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely lovely nursery! The staff are friendly, helpful and supportive. My child has enjoyed himself immensely and has come along in leaps and bounds.
I’ve had support through all aspects of weaning and development and the whole experience has helped build my child’s confidence.
I’d highly recommend
Kirby Muxloe Day Nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son joined the nursery in November 2019 after having spent over 2 years at another nursery full time. The staff have made him feel very welcome and settle in quickly. He talks about both of his teachers and looks forward to seeing them. He has made lots of new friends. He has learnt new things, his
learning journey is always up to date and his observations very detailed and a pleasure to read.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has been attending the nursery since he was 11 months old and will be starting school in a few months. I have nothing but praise for all of the staff at the nursery. My son looks forward to going to nursery every day and always comes home feeling excited about the activities he's taken
part in. The staff genuinely care about him, show him affection and treat him fairly and consistently.
The meals at the nursery are very good quality and he has always enjoyed the variety and trying new things. They always ensure that the children get plenty of outdoor play and he is regularly outside when I arrive to collect him in the afternoons.
The managers are very approachable and helpful and have good relationships with all of the children. There are regular parents evenings held during the year, where we can find out what he's been doing well at and what he needs to work on. I would confidently recommend the nursery to any of my friends and family.

The staff are extremely welcoming and excellent. My daughter sometimes goes in unsettled and doesn't want to leave me. But the staff comfort her and she has an amazing day. She comes home talking about the staff in her room and is very happy.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
All the staff are very welcoming and friendly when I see them on a Thursday when I take my little boy. They are also on hand to give advice if worried about anything. The nursery itself is very bright and plenty of different things for all children and babies to enjoy.
Just an all-round lovely nursery
and not have to worry about leaving my little boy for the day they are also available on the phone when I call to check on him.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son has attended this nursery for the last 3 years. I viewed a number of nurseries before choosing this one. We received a brilliant welcome and I got an instant good feeling. The staff are lovely, I like that everything is included in your fee and there is a big lovely garden. My son has been very
happy there and I’ve seen his confidence grow and learning develop since attending more regularly. I have recommended this nursery to friends already and my daughter will also be starting later this year.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.512)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.512) out of 10 for Kirby Muxloe Day Nursery 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 8 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 4.823 for Kirby Muxloe Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (80 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.823
  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 4.689 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kirby Muxloe Day Nursery is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 45 number of registered child places is 9. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 0.889
  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.
