Review from Pamela L (Mother of Child) published on 7 September 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can't say enough about how excellent this nursery/pre-school is! From the moment I walked into the premises, the staff were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. They're caring and it's genuine! They all have individual traits and areas of expertise which compliment each other and the personal touches
they add such as 'firsts' photos, plays and the pre-school nativity really capture and create lifelong memories. They know my children inside out, even though they are only in part-time. They offer a really good balance of education and play and the food offers great variety, and is nutritious and plentiful! The staff always have time for you (as a parent and for your child). They have really prepared my son for primary school, mentally, socially and by focusing on skills and routines to make the transition smooth. It feels more like an extended family than a business. It was recommended to me and I would go on to recommend it to others!!!

Review from Chris R (Grandmother of Child) published on 7 September 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having been a teacher in Cheshire for 40 plus years I was excited about the prospect of visiting nurseries with my daughter in law to look for a placement for my lovely granddaughter. We visited Chrysalis last week and I was extremely impressed and amazed at the quality of provision at this setting.
The
managers were welcoming and experienced, the key workers were engaged in the care and support of every baby and child there. The children were happy and involved in all their activities. The environment, both indoor and outdoor was stimulating and rich in every aspect of the early years curriculum.
I had no hesitation in recommending this setting to my daughter in law and I'm sure my granddaughter will be happy there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.904)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.904) out of 10 for Chrysalis Day Nursery 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.904 for Chrysalis Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (218 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.904
  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 Chrysalis Day Nursery is based on 20 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 20 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.
