The Review Score of 8.8 (maximum of 10) for Aunt Mary's is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Aunt Mary's in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.944 for Aunt Mary's is calculated as follows: ( (67 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.944
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 3.857 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Aunt Mary's is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.5
Target of 8.4 positive Reviews (42 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 3 Reviews ÷ 8.4 Target = 0.357
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Aunt Mary's has a Review Score of 8.8 (8.801)

My children have been going to this nursery for the last four years and both love going. They are always happy to go and have loads to tell me about their day when I pick them up! They love going on walks in the nature reserve jumping in muddy puddles. The nursery staff makes me feel at ease leaving them as I know they are safe and very well looked after. It is also very clean!

I have had 2 children at Aunt Mary's now for almost 18 months, one from only 9 months old and they have had nothing but positive experiences there! My son started at age 2 and his speech has come on so much since then and he is so much more confident and loves going to nursery! My daughter is also doing amazing too! Lovely staff and lovely atmosphere! Great that the kids get to venture out into the dell too!

I've got 2 boys that have been at the nursery since they were 9 months old and they love every second of it. I wouldn't want to send them anywhere else. They are always very excited to share what they have done and what they have learnt.

Absolutely fantastic nursery the staff are brilliant. I was worried about leaving him, but he ran straight in the nursery to play with his friends. Totally enjoyed himself. Plenty of fun, learning and activities. My boy is absolutely thriving. I would definitely recommend this nursery. My son soon settled and now I cant get him out of there when I am going to pick him up.

I would recommend attending this nursery. My son has come on so much sine transferring in April 2015, his speech has come on in leaps and bounds, he never wants to leave at the end of the day and he is also leaving for school this Septemer. He loves nursey the staff are so friendly and welcoming and helpful.
