The Review Score of 9.2 (maximum of 10) for Daisy Day Nursery - Barry is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 6 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Daisy Day Nursery - Barry in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 6 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.819 for Daisy Day Nursery - Barry is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.819
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 4.39 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Daisy Day Nursery - Barry is based on 6 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 4
Target of 15.4 positive Reviews (77 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 6 Reviews ÷ 15.4 Target = 0.390
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

My eldest son started nursery in Daisy Day in 2011, he remained there until he left for full-time school. Now my other son goes to Daisy Day Nursery, he started 2015 and will leave for full-time school in September this year. Daisy Day Nursery staff are caring, enthusiastic, helpful and always there for the children and parent. It has a home from home feeling when you are in there. I would definitely recommend Daisy Day Nursery.

What to say. Well, when my son joined in January of this year I was very reluctant to place him in nursery. I previously had a childminder for my eldest but was let down very last minute by her so had to find an urgent care provider.
To say I was pleasantly surprised by Daisy is an understatement. I never feel uneasy about leaving him all day. He loves all of the girls, his key worker in particular and has them all wrapped around his fingers. My eldest loves to come in at the end of the day to play for 5 minutes and they are all amazing with him too.
I cannot thank you enough.

As a first-time mum, I was really overwhelmed with the fact of leaving my kid with strangers but the staff at Daisy Day Nursery - Barry is great! The teachers at Bluebells are amazing, I love how much they care about my little one and how much they care about every child. My little one has been there for a month and can’t describe how happy I am about choosing this nursery, would recommend it 100%

It’s such a daunting task choosing who to leave your baby with whilst you go back to work when family is not an option due to geography and I must admit I was despondent after visiting my first couple. They all had routines and ways my child had to become overnight and having a particularly strong-minded and not easily adaptable son I knew it would be a challenge but when I visited Daisy Day for the first time I couldn’t believe how great I felt. When I asked when he would be expected to sleep they simply said ‘when he’s ready’ and ‘we’ll do whatever it takes it just look after him’ it was that kind of family like care that I wanted. The staff in the caterpillars room are wonderful, understanding, non-judgemental and seem to take everything in their stride. Daisy Day is clean and purpose built which means the children have the space they need. I feel lucky to have got it right the first time with my choice of nursery and can’t thank the staff enough, bend over backwards for my child.

My son has been through the baby room so far and I have been extremely happy with his time there. The staff are always lovely caring and communicate well with parents.

Such a bright, clean and friendly nursery, my son absolutely loves nursery and the amount of love given to him by the staff makes me happy to leave him.
The settling in sessions were tailored to mine and my son's needs which was a big concern for me with a clingy baby. Leaving him at Daisy was like leaving him with family and 2 years later the warmth continues.
I can’t recommend Daisy highly enough - thank you.
