Review from Shelley H (Mother of Child) published on 21 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The staff at Sunshine Day Nursery are wonderful. My youngest currently attends 2 days a week and he absolutely loves every minute of his time there. The range of play activities on offer is fantastic and the outside play space has seen significant improvements recently. Playing outside is his favourite
time of the day - rain or shine.


My eldest also attended the nursery until recently and the pre-school is exceptional. Staff are caring and friendly with the children but take an approach that encourages independence and gets them ready for school.


I can't praise the staff of the nursery enough and thank them all for caring for my boys so well over the years.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.034)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.034) out of 10 for Sunshine Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 9 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 4.821 for Sunshine Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.821
  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 4.213 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Sunshine Day Nursery is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 144 number of registered child places is 28.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 28.8 = 0.313
  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.
