The Cedars have provided first class care for my daughter for over a year and a half. She loves the staff and has made lots of friends.
The environment has enabled her to really grow and develop and now she is ready to progress to school nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter left the nursery to start school in September and she still talks about the staff and her friends from Cedars nursery everyday. I couldn't be happier with the level of care and encouragement my daughter received in the 3 years she was there. Her love of the outdoors and desire to learn was
more than met and the life skills she has gained when there have given her an excellent start in school.

My 2-year-old accesses provision here and I could not be happier. Staff are warm and welcoming. The nursery-home communication is good. Facilities and safety are excellent. My little one always seems to have enjoyed their nursery sessions. The variety of meals and snacks is great. I am very pleased
with the range of activities planned in order to support my little one's development. My little one is always able to tell me what they have done at nursery and comes home happy. I am glad I chose to enrol my little one here.

A wonderful nursery. I moved my little girl to this nursery from another nursery and have seen instant amazing results. A huge amount of support with speech development, toilet training, confidence and imaginative play. A warm friendly and calm nursery where I know my little one is happy content and
loved. They are helping to shape my little girl into the funny confident and independent person she is becoming. The range of activities she is doing daily is also fantastic. A huge thank you to all of the nursery nurses.

My daughter loves coming to nursery. As well as feeling she is well cared for, it is also lovely to hear about what she has been up to. She comes home singing songs, a great preparation for school and the routine that it brings.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.904)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.904) out of 10 for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 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 4.978 for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.978
  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 4.926 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Cedars Nursery - Sunderland is based on 15 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 81 number of registered child places is 16.2. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.2 = 0.926
  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.
