Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are so happy with our experience at Home from Home. Our daughter has loved every minute and thrived. The nursery is like a second family and home. The staff are amazing and caring and we couldn't have wished for a better nursery. We are not only nervous as our daughter prepares to start school but
also sad she is leaving such a wonderful environment. However, all the staff at the nursery are so supportive and they have prepared her, and us, so well for such a big change. They have looked after her since she was four months old and we couldn't be happier.

My child has been at Home from Home - Parkside since he was 9 months old. He has learned a lot of new things while being at the nursery. The care he has received has been excellent in many ways. He has enjoyed his time at the nursery and will be sad to learn.
I have felt confident and safe for my child
to attend the nursery.

Our child had a very pleasant experience at Parkside nursery. She has made friends there and it is sad for her to leave this place. Teachers were awesome too, they were very helpful in our daughters progress to learn new things (reading, writing, drawing etc). Thank you all very much.

Review from Michelle J (Mother of Child) published on 30 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are very friendly and interested in each of the children’s progress. They take the time to find out about the parents and stage at which they are with the child and try to continue any developments to the level of the parenting at home. Also, if the child has successes they let parents know
even if it’s simply eating foods they don’t usually like to eat. Very comforting leaving my child with them each time.

Wonderful staff, kind and caring to my child's every need.
The outdoor area is fantastic and offers so many learning opportunities for my child, I love that there is a range of animals here and he can explore them with staff.
A great routine for the children and it encourages my child development
and skills.
The overall standard of the nursery is good, would recommend to anyone especially those who love outdoor spaces.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.907)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.907) 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 83 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 81 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 4.907 for ABC123 - Home from Home Parkside is calculated as follows: ( (942 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 992 Ratings = 4.907
  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 81 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 81 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.
