Review from Amanda M (Mother of Child) published on 8 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are really glad to have found Hungry Caterpillars. They have an excellent staff and a great array of activities. I love when my son comes home teaching me the French he has learned that day. The staff go above and beyond to do special things with the children. My son is so at home at Hungry Caterpillars.
Everyday he wakes up asking if he gets to go to "school" today - so they must be doing something right!

Happy with everything! I would highly recommend to all I know this nursery. My child can't wait every day to attend and see his friends, he has grown so much since he started. I love all activities they come up with, children are happy to engage.

Review from B P (Mother of Child) published on 4 January 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very happy with this nursery. My son has only been attending approximately 8 weeks and there has been a big improvement in his behavior and listening - which used to be a cause for concern at his previous nursery.
Staff are very friendly and polite.
My son is also eating and trying new food which
his previous nursery found to be a problem.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I've been attending to the nursery with my son for a week and can see my son is happy going to the nursery and playing and singing with the other children. In the place is a lot of educational games for the development of the kids and a nice warm feeling inside. I would recommend the nursery to other
mums as well.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.795)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.795) out of 10 for Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Perivale 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.795 for Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Perivale is calculated as follows: ( (125 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 151 Ratings = 4.795
  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 Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - Perivale is based on 12 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 20 number of registered child places is 4, which has been reached with 12 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.
