Review from Lou (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son settled in well and most of the staff have been supportive. Issues have been resolved quickly and for the most part, the written recording of activities/incidents have been to a good standard. Management has been very good when dealing with minor issues and my son's key worker is a dream! Most
of the pre-school staff engage well with my child and myself during handovers.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at Hopscotch at Lee on Solent for 6 months. Even though he only goes 2 days a week, he loves it. He has a strong relationship with his key worker and a positive relationship with all the staff. Always greeted with a friendly face when I collect him.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter loves coming to this nursery. The staff are so friendly and have such good relationships with the children. I feel so relaxed that she is safe and happy when I am at work. Her routine has been kept to by the staff and she has had amazing support with her potty training. She also eats better
that I do!!! Very much recommended.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have used Hopscotch Day Nursery Lee-on-the-Solent for a total of 6 years. Both of our children have loved their time there. Our youngest son currently attends and has the best time. He loves the activities they do. He also loves the food. He's well looked after and adores all of the ladies. He has
made lots of friends too.
We enjoy receiving the updates through Tapestry.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have been using Hopscotch Day Nursery Lee-on-Solent for about 4 years for both my children. I have always felt that every member of staff looks after the children like they are their own. My children have always been happy to go and I think they really look forward to it because of all.the different
things they get up to. They help in all different ways with behaviour, making new friends, eating different foods etc.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended for 18 months and has really enjoyed making friends and taking part in fun activities. She has had a regular keyworker who has identified her strengths and new goals. All staff are enthusiastic and have taken the time to get to know my child as an individual. My daughter is
always smiling when I collect her and she obviously has a close relationship with the staff. I have been very pleased with the care my daughter has received.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.967)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.967) out of 10 for Hopscotch Day Nursery Lee-on-Solent 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.967 for Hopscotch Day Nursery Lee-on-Solent is calculated as follows: ( (290 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 300 Ratings = 4.967
  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 Hopscotch Day Nursery Lee-on-Solent is based on 25 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 83 number of registered child places is 16.6, which has been reached with 25 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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2007

I joined Hopscotch in 2007 while studying at college. I very quickly found my own beliefs fell in line with Hopscotch’s ethos and began my journey as a Nursery practitioner in our Titchfield setting. After some time away travelling, I came back to Hopscotch. For 5 years I was based at our biggest setting in Botley as the Deputy Manager and gained my Level 5 in Leadership and Management in the Early Years.


I work closely alongside my Deputy Managers, Aimee Lewis and Maddie Stevens, together we share the same goals of delivering the highest quality of childcare. We know how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your child on the first day and my team and I will work closely with you to help that first day back at work run as smoothly as possible! I would love to show you around our beautiful nursery, so please contact me today if you would like to come and visit.
