Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very friendly, vibrant, nurturing staff and nursery environment is a very good use of different spaces being used for creating lovely areas for the children to use. My eldest son also comes here, and he thought the staff were a family and lived here, so when they weren't there, he would say 'they've
gone to work'. My youngest is currently there, say its not nursery, its nursery house. They love their nursery.

Both my girls have come to this nursery. They have both blossomed and learnt so much. Staff are amazing, and both my girls have had really good relationships with all staff. Love that I can look on the camera to see what they are up to for reassurance. It's, also good, all observations are on the app
for parents to see. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Review from Christiana A (Mother of Child) published on 8 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The decision to make my son attend the Home from Home nursery was the best I have made for him so far. His developmental and learning needs were immediately identified, and supports were put in place to help him. The staff are very warm and welcoming, they are always ready to listen and work in partnership
with you. They have the best interest of the children at heart. The staff are continuously supportive, and they keep communication open with you. My son always looks forward to going to the nursery every day. He is comfortable there and happy. It is extremely likely that I will recommend Home from Home nursery to other people.

This is the second time using Home From Home - Parkside. Six years from my eldest attending, now my youngest. The same staff is so welcoming, caring, loving, and helpful. I could not ask for any more for the care they provide.
I would recommend this nursery to new parents.

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.
