Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The manager and her team have always been so welcoming and understanding.
The manager herself has been so supportive with us and our situation. Always going that extra mile.
We are really going to miss going to the nursery most mornings.

Thorncliffe Park Day Nursery offers our daughter excellent care and flexible hours. The staff are very friendly and have always made us feel at ease. Our daughter comes home from nursery after a session to tell us all about her day. Our daughter learns through play and is becoming an independent, caring
and polite child with thanks to Thorncliffe Park nursery. All routines and requests have always been followed, giving stability to our daughter - thank you.

I have been using Thorncliffe Park Day Nursery for just over 9 years as my eldest went to nursery here. I have always found the staff to be caring, professional and very approachable.
I would recommend this nursery to family and friends.

Review from Carl (Father of Child) published on 5 December 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
When we first took our son here, we were very happy with the quality of care that he was getting, and he always loved being there. Unfortunately, this changed when the nursery was taken over by Cornerstone Nurseries.


There were changes such as no longer giving a sheet at the end of each session with

details of his meals and what he had done during the day. Also, everything seemed to be about the money, with extra charges introduced for lots of little things, and a whole host of 'supplements' when paying by childcare vouchers.


We used the nursery for 2 days a week, from 8.30am to 6.30pm, so obviously, this included meals as well. When using childcare vouchers, they can only be used for core hours, and not over lunchtime. For our hours, this was £390 per month. We have since moved to another nursery, for the same hours and we are paying £75 per month.

I'm sorry to hear you were not happy with the pricing structure during your child's time with us. We are normally known for our fantastic flexibility of sessions, healthy home cooked meals and value…read more

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.751)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.751) out of 10 for Thorncliffe Park 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.751 for Thorncliffe Park Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (143 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 4.751
  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 Thorncliffe Park Day Nursery is based on 16 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 73 number of registered child places is 14.6, which has been reached with 16 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.
