Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A lovely nursery, and the staff are wonderful with my 2 year old. I would highly recommend Squirrel Nutkins to all my friends and family. My daughter comes home everyday and tells me something knew about what she has learnt, and she absolutely loves coming everyday x

Review from Amanda C (Mother of Child) published on 26 August 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended this nursery since it opened. She is now 3 and loves going to nursery. Every evening when I go to collect her there are activities set out on all the tables for the next day. She says she is never bored, there is lots of outside play too. Her ability to count, write her name
, recognise letters, solve puzzles etc is amazing and she has learnt most of it at nursery. She is now in the last year before she starts school and I have seen the nursery prepare others for school and am sure my daughter will be more than prepared when she is leaving. She loves drama class , reading books, painting, the mud kitchen and all the friends she has made. The staff are great and know the children well as individuals, likes and dislikes and always inform you if your child has done something well or they have any concerns, they have parents evenings but are approachable at any time. I am really pleased my daughter has been able to attend this nursery as she has developed so many skills in a lovely, friendly environment.

Squirrel Nutkins is an amazing nursery. The staff are all highly knowledgeable, well trained, approachable and friendly. You can tell they love their jobs and genuinely care about each and every child. The nursery is really well run and everything they do is about helping the children experience new
things and reach their potential. Quite often when you leave your child at a nursery you worry about if they're having fun or upset but at Squirrel Nutkins it's like leaving your child with family so it takes away a lot of the stress. I love all the extra little things they do like drama, football and yoga and the way they make the effort to get to know each family and integrate nursery and home learning.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.870)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.870) out of 10 for Kids Planet Clarence 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.870 for Kids Planet Clarence is calculated as follows: ( (195 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.87
  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 Kids Planet Clarence is based on 18 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 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 18 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.
