Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very happy. All the staff have very warm, caring relationships with the children. Communication between the staff and parents is wonderful, especially the daily diary and learning journey books. Finally, we find it good value for money, as all meals, nappies, creams etc are included in the cost of a
full day.

Review from Danielle M (Mother of Child) published on 5 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child attends nursery four days a week. He loves attending and gets excited when he sees the other children and staff. Since starting at Home From Home, my son's development has improved greatly and especially his communication skills. I am happy that all staff members ensure all of my son's needs
are met and he is made to feel safe and secure.
Each room is helpful towards the stage of his development and prepares him for his next stage of life. I would highly recommend Home From Home to any parent.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attends Home from Home Children's Day Nursery five days a week for the past year. Since attending the nursery I feel it has helped her develop and become independent. My daughter has an amazing bond with all staff members and Is excited to attend in the mornings. All the staff are lovely
and approachable. The nursery is always clean and welcoming. I feel very comfortable leaving my child at the nursery and would recommend the nursery to family and friends.
Reply from Camille Thomas, Owner at Home From Home Children's Day Nursery Ltd

My daughter attends the nursery one full day every week. From the time she arrives at the nursery her face is full of smiles, especially once she's greeted by the staff. The nursery always feels very welcoming and the staff ar always on hand to deal with any issues. As a parent, I feel the nursery is
very equipt and have age appropriate areas and toys. I would definitely recommend this nursery to friends and family.

Review from Kimberley E (Mother of Child) published on 18 October 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Cannot fully put into words how highly I rate this nursery. Having looked at other childcare providers in my area I was sure I would never feel comfortable leaving my daughter in a stranger's care. Home from home not only dispelled this concern but have gained my complete trust when it comes to my daughter's
care. A lovely, educational, fun environment for my daughter to play and learn in. Friendly, caring, professional and efficient staff who have gone out of their way to make my daughter feel welcomed and happy. Worth every penny knowing my daughter is happy, safe and well cared for in this fantastic nursery.
Reply from Camille Thomas, Owner at Home From Home Children's Day Nursery Ltd

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended for 18 months and still enjoys it as much as the first day. They have helped him grow in every way possible. He has so much fun, loves to get messy, yet comes home spotlessly clean. All staff are so professional and efficient. I really do feel that they actually care about my son
and are not just doing their job. He is very fond of them all. Facilities, play areas and activities are brilliant. All age appropriate and very creative, have seen so many different themes over 18 months its unbelievable. Daily walks with plenty of fresh air is a favourite of mine and he loves the garden activities. Staff numbers are always in excess of the requirements which allow my son to have love and not just care. Really would highly recommend.

I can't praise this nursery enough. As any parent I was nervous about leaving my 2 year old, but the staff made me feel at ease. I love how secure the nursery is. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. My child has come along so much in the time he has been in the nursery. He is always happy coming
from there, telling me about all the fun things he has done in the day.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.990)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.990) out of 10 for Home From Home Children's Day Nursery Ltd 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.990 for Home From Home Children's Day Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (202 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.99
  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 Home From Home Children's Day Nursery Ltd is based on 17 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 68 number of registered child places is 13.6, which has been reached with 17 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.
