Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son left this nursery in the summer and was very sad to leave the staff and friends he had made. My son was always happy to go to nursery and would always come home full of knowledge of what he had learnt in preschool that day. Great nursery.

My son attended this nursery last year and wow was it amazing. Working in a early years setting myself, I needed a nursery of high standards and professionalism and Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Bexleyheath certainly fitted my criteria. The staff were very knowledgeable in the Early Years Foundation Stage
and very supportive of my sons ASD. Would highly recommend this setting.

My daughter joined Bexleyheath Nursery in January 2021, I was so nervous as she was only 8 months and I very clingy, but I needn’t have worried as the team in the baby room, made everything so relaxed and were amazing with my daughter, making sure she had all her home comforts her blanket when she naps
and keeping to her routine, it has made leaving her much easier knowing that she is been cared for a stimulated and encouraged to explore and play, I would thoroughly recommend Monkey Puzzle absolutely outstanding.

My son is 1 year old and started at Monkey Puzzle 5 months ago. At first I was a bit nervous as he is my first and with everything going on.
However, the manager completely reassured me about how safe he would be and put my mind at ease.
The staff are so caring and passionate about the care they give
him, it's like a second family for him. I feel so safe and reassured and I would recommend them to anyone.

My granddaughter attends the nursery and has so much fun there. Whenever I pick her up she loves telling me about her day and what she has been doing. The staff are helpful and caring, the management team have done wonderfully during the covid 19 crisis ensuring she is kept safe and well. My daughter
and myself are very happy and she loves going, always talks about her teachers. keep up the good work!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been at Monkey Puzzle for nearly 4 years and I don’t have a single complaint about her entire time there.
Staff are warm, caring and welcoming, the management team know the children and parents well and respond to any queries you may have. My daughter has flourished in her time at
Monkey Puzzle and I recommend it to anyone who has young children.
Facilities are excellent, and constantly changing to keep the children entertained. Outside space is limited, but the MP team have worked to ensure there are lots for the kids to do. My daughter eats incredibly well at nursery, and all food is cooked on-site by their kitchen team.
For anyone looking for the people to entrust your children to - I cannot recommend the owners and their team enough!

My son moved from another Monkey Puzzle to Monkey Puzzle Bexleyheath. I must say the same amazing standards and caring staff in both nurseries. Facilities are clean and my son loves the Spanish lessons and the football classes. It’s great to have somewhere to put your child knowing they will be looked
after well. I am very grateful for the care they give my baby!

My younger 1-year-old daughter loves attending with her sister and has done so from around 6 months. She loves the sensory room in the baby area and now the climbing area now she's on the move!! I love that my 2 children can see each other through the glass which separates the 2 rooms! The staff all
show great care for the babies and always have their best interests at heart.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (10.000)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (10.000) out of 10 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Bexleyheath 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 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 5.000 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Bexleyheath is calculated as follows: ( (503 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 503 Ratings = 5
  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 Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Bexleyheath is based on 42 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 140 number of registered child places is 28, which has been reached with 42 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.
