Every child can be sure of a busy, stimulating day at Banana Moon Day Nursery in Mere Green.

As children begin to explore, they engage in a variety of educational and fun activities planned by the trained and qualified staff members.

Lots of fresh air is given to all ages thanks to the nursery's daily outdoor activities and children are offered outdoor experiences in all weathers.

The children can enjoy well-balanced, delicious meals made with fresh ingredients which are prepared and made fresh on site, daily.

Every child has the opportunity to develop their skills and at a pace that is suitable to them.

It is far from unusual to see a child come out of their shell and positively 'blossom' as their confidence and social skills grow and they become more self-assured.   

Highly skilled caring staff can only marvel at the wondrous changes that ensue from a child's experience at the nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started in September and the nursery went above and beyond to ensure that she settled in. They spent lots of time helping her with her feeding and walking.

Review from Kate V (Mother of Child) published on 10 December 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I’m very happy with the care my son receives at Banana Moon! The ladies are friendly, there are lots of toys and equipment to play with and they are there to distract him if he is a bit upset on arrival!
The food seems great and I really like the fact that the fees include all meals.
The Parenta
system is great for keeping me up to date on what he has been doing throughout the day and it is lovely that they put photos of him during his activities.
Thanks, ladies!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.834)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.834) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Mere Green 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.859 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Mere Green is calculated as follows: ( (200 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.859
  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 4.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Banana Moon Day Nursery Mere Green is based on 19 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, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten 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 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.975
    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 74 number of registered child places is 14.8, which has been reached with 19 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.
