Review from Cristina C (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2023 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Before joining ABC nursery, my son has been at another 2 nurseries facing communication difficulties (as we are bilinguals). At ABC, he started to speak English language and interact with other kids.
Before ABC he was struggling with communication and interaction with other people and kids as well.
The staff are one of the best I could wish for him. He turned 4 in May, but I wanted him to stay in the nursery until year 1, which sadly wasn't possible. I asked, to be honest, that my son is learning this year the nursery, as he started to feel so happy here.
Reply from Maria Botterill, Owner at ABC123 - Home from Home Parkside
Thank you so much; we have loved looking after him.

Our child has had a wonderful experience during their time at home from home nursery. The staff, especially the key workers have been great and ensured our child is well taken care of. It is clear that their approach is very much centred around their experience and as a result, our daughter has flourished
in all areas of development.

Since my son has come to this nursery his development has come on really well. When he first started he couldn't talk, now he's speaking full sentences. If you want your child to come to a fun, loving nursery, then I recommend this nursery. Your child will be truly well looked after.

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
It's a good nursery because my son learns lots of things and it has lovely staff teachers. It has lots of space for the children inside and outside. I love this nursery because it does not feel commercialised, which was really important to me when choosing a nursery. It is a small nursery that is friendly
and very tactile. Every time I have visited, I have never seen children crying alone, and often I have witnessed nursery workers sitting on the floor with children cuddling and attending to them.

Since my grandson has attended the nursery I have noticed a huge change in his behaviour, his learning, his potty training, and confidence. The ladies treat my grandson like his family, they are so friendly and easily approachable. Would highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery has been the safest and most fun place for my daughter for the past one and a half years. She has learnt the English language, and she gained new skills, which are very important for her future development. My daughter has met lots of new friends, and she adores most of the staff. She has
built a very special relationship with one person in particular. She continues talking about the nursery staff and friends even when she's not at nursery. Myself, I am very thankful for all staff that has updated and were taking care of the app. Many thanks for the CCTV access, this helps me and other parents, I believe, with the whole stress and anxiety when leaving my own child for the first time in a new environment. Wish you all the best in the future. We will definitely pop in for a cuddle again.

I find home from home nursery a very friendly and warm place for my child, the staff is very helpful. They cooperate with the parent so all together can work hard and have great results relating to the child’s needs. My little one is happy to go there every day and never cries when I leave her there.
I’ve chosen this nursery for both my children and I don’t regret at all, very happy.

My son absolutely loves going to nursery and the staff in it. He is developing and learning so well! The staff are very friendly and really treat you like family. I especially like the flexibility of hours they allow. So useful for working parents. He is always a happy, cared for, well-fed bubba when
I pick him up. I'm very pleased with this nursery and would certainly recommend them to others.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.901)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.901) out of 10 for ABC123 - Home from Home Parkside 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 78 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 76 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 4.901 for ABC123 - Home from Home Parkside is calculated as follows: ( (882 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 932 Ratings = 4.901
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for ABC123 - Home from Home Parkside is based on 76 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 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 76 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
