Review from Stephen F (Father of Child) published on 18 June 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From our first visit with the Manager to every contact with staff when dropping daughters off, both me and my wife have been amazed with this place. The manager was very flexible with induction visits and it was nice to see there was a progressive element to this (time with us there, short time alone,
longer time than building up to full day). Both our daughters have attended and we have seen both come on so much through spending time there. Both always asked to go and were excited about it. I would fully recommend this nursery to anybody considering childcare in this area.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has attended ever since he was 1 (now 4) and it has been amazing watching his confidence grow within Spring Nursery Layfield. He has learnt and developed so much and this has really helped him as he is now using this knowledge in school and doing so well because of the effort and time
that Spring Nursery Layfield have put into helping him become such a confident and polite young man. He still attends now before school and during holiday club, and he loves it, he has made so many amazing friends and is always happy, I’m always really confident that they do a fabulous job in such a safe and friendly environment.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have attended this setting from 10 months to school age and thoroughly enjoyed it, my little girl has just left for school nursery.
The ladies who work here are very accommodating, welcoming and enthusiastic in every thing they do.
I would highly recommend this nursery to my friends
and family.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My little girl enjoys her days at nursery and so did my son who used to attend. He now attends the after school and holiday club and loves it.
The staff are very friendly and willing to help in anyway they can. Communication is excellent and so is flexibility where possible.
Extremely handy being
in the school too.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.887)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.887) out of 10 for Spring Nursery Layfield 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 12 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 4.887 for Spring Nursery Layfield is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.887
  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 Spring Nursery Layfield 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, 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.
