Review from Steve R (Father of Child) published on 20 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Nest Nursery Pype Hayes is an excellent nursery and both of our children have had a brilliant time there. The staff are very friendly and great at dealing with both children and parents. The nursery offers Forest School expeditions to the local nature reserve and our children have really enjoyed
these as they give them a great opportunity to get out and about and be independent. The outside play area at The Nest is excellent, with a wide range of things for the children to do and the staff are always keen to get the children outside, even if the weather isn't great. The food is of a high quality and the staff are really good at getting the children to try different things.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child loves going to nursery he has formed excellent friendships at the setting. The staff are highly professional and are always very welcoming. My child enjoys forest school the best. My child has been at the nursery since they were 1 years old and the care is fantastic. I cannot praise the nursery
enough, it is an amazing place where my child has learnt so so much over the last 3 years. Keep up the good work, the Nest is a great place.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.779) out of 10 for The Nest Nursery Pype Hayes 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.979 for The Nest Nursery Pype Hayes is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.979
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Nest Nursery Pype Hayes 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 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 = 3.8
    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 32 number of registered child places is 6.4, 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.
