A HOMELY AND INSPIRING NURSERY IN ABERDEEN

You and your child will love the spacious and nurturing Treehouse Early Care and Education Centre. Situated onsite at Robert Gordon University, they offer childcare to university staff, children and the local community. The experienced and highly skilled staff offer enriching activities to support children’s development from the age of 3 months to 5 years.

It is a purpose-built setting that has a large Under 2s space that can be split into separate multifunctioning rooms. This allows them to change up the space depending on the interests and developmental stages of the children. Younger babies love learning about the world through sensory activities, discovering new textures, sights and sounds. They use their natural curiosity to improve their gross and fine motor skills as they learn how to interact with the world around them.

The rooms have lots of natural light and space to play, discover and investigate. The nursery's educational resources provide a broad range of learning experiences, from exploring and reading in the cosy book nook, to learning about the world through IT and STEM activities.

Outside, the beautiful Treehouse nursery has garden areas focused for each age group. The Under 2s’ garden provides the younger children with a safe space to explore and learn. Older children have freeflow access out to a large space with lots of unique learning opportunities including a mud kitchen, balance equipment and tricycles.

The staff would love to meet you and your child, so book a visit today and the team will show you all that the nursery has to offer during your own personal tour.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Staff are very helpful and since moving rooms they have been very supportive. I enjoy looking at his JPLS as shows me what he has done and how he is progressing especially with problem with walking (July) the staff supported him and how at 2 years old he can walk unaided. My oldest son attended this
nursery too he also enjoyed it. My youngest son really enjoys his room and runs to the door and to the member of staff he made a bond with.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.515) out of 10 for Bright Horizons The Treehouse Early Care & Education Centre 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 4 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 4.938 for Bright Horizons The Treehouse Early Care & Education Centre is calculated as follows: ( (45 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.938
  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 3.577 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons The Treehouse Early Care & Education Centre is based on 4 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 20 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 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.375
    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 99 number of registered child places is 19.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.8 = 0.202
  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.
