Review from Lynsey G (Mother of Child) published on 8 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is simply the best! having to leave you baby to go to work is a massive transition, but the staff are amazing they support you through out. I Couldn't wish for better care for my baby. I can go to work knowing that she is well looked after and her ever growing needs are met. My little girl
has settled beautifully here. My eldest daughter came here 3 years ago so when we found out we were expecting again there was no doubt where we would take her to nursery.

Our daughter loves Kids 1st Wynyard. She waves us goodbye on a morning with the biggest smile. Staff are very professional and give us lots of detail about her day at nursery. We made the perfect choice when choosing this nursery and would recommend to anyone.

We have been visiting Kids 1st Wynyard for 8 years, it is an outstanding nursery, led by an extremely caring, professional and hard working manager. The children are always loved and well cared for and we feel this is the most important aspect, particularly in the baby room.
Behaviour and good manners
are taught from a very young age and this is evident throughout the nursery. The children thrive and are happy and the senior staff go out of their way to support and care for each child to the best of their ability.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent nursery, my grandson loves it. Staff are all very committed and focused on the wellbeing of each child. No hesitation in recommending to anyone looking for a first class nursery. Food very good the only questionable dish was salmon curry which my grandson definitely didn't like but usually
eats everything else.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been at Kids 1st since he was 6 months old and he is now two. We have always had complete trust in the staff and have been fully confident that he has been well looked after in their care. Each time he is in nursery he is excited to visit and is happy when he comes home. We love the range
of healthy and tasty food that he eats (some of which we would never be able to get him to try at home) and the variety of activities he takes part in is great. Overall fantastic service with wonderful staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.753)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.753) out of 10 for Kids 1st Wynyard 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 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 4.966 for Kids 1st Wynyard is calculated as follows: ( (199 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.966
  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 4.787 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids 1st Wynyard is based on 17 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.787
  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.

Megan Goodman

Job Title: Centre Director Joined: 2009

Hello, I am Megan and I hold a Level 3 CACHE Diploma qualification in Childcare & Education, which I earned in June 2009. My journey with Kids 1st Wynyard began in October the same year as a nursery assistant and over the past fourteen+ years, I have progressed through various roles and I am now proud to be the Centre Director.

I am deeply passionate about working with children and am dedicated to helping nurture them in their formative stages, giving them a solid foundation for their future. We work closely with parents to help meet their child's needs and am both saddened and delighted when they formally "graduate" and move on to mainstream education.

Over the years I have pro-actively participated in organising numerous fundraising activities and I am currently Wynyard's designated Charity Champion. I am proud to say that we have raised tens of thousands of pounds in support of the local community.

In my social life enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends, going for walks, and more recently have developed an interest in nature photography.
