Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter first started the nursery in August 2017, she took to the staff really quickly and even stayed in one of the rooms to play whilst we had a look around the rest of the nursery, all the staff are really friendly and go above and beyond for the children, my son then started in 2018, he absolutely
loves going to nursery, he loves all the staff I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

It’s a great nursery that cares so much for my child. The introduction of the Famly app has been great and it is fantastic to see what my son is doing throughout the day. Would highly recommend!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started attending Dunkey's Day nursery 12 months ago. I can't even begin to write the endless list of how much she has developed, the staff are doing all they can and sometimes even more. The management is fantastic, making me feel like a part of a big family. I am sad and heartbroken already
that my daughter has to go to reception school from September 2020.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have used this nursery for nearly 12 months. The nursery is always clean to high standards. All staff are very welcoming and caring. My daughter's key worker is brilliant, I get plenty of updates about the progress my daughter is making. There are plenty of activities for the children and we get
lots of photos sent home and arts and crafts that my daughter has completed. It has a lovely outdoor safe space to play. The management team at the nursery are great and always willing to help with all needs. Couldn't recommend this nursery enough! My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and has built great trusting relationships with staff as well as making lots of friends who she often speaks about at home. She has developed amazingly since attending nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has attended this nursery for a year now and he loves to talk about all the things he has done with his friends and the teachers in his room. He has built lovely relationships with all members of staff and on the way to and from the nursery will talk about how he can't wait to go again! After
been shown around by the manager I came out confident this was the right setting for my child and she really knew her stuff, answering any questions I had. I would recommend this nursery highly!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been going to the nursery since he was about 8 months old, he is now 4 years old. Having had 3 children I can honestly say they are the best nursery I've used, my son loves it, in fact, sometimes takes me a while to get him out to go home. The staff are amazing they give me a full rundown
on what he has done in the day and the new app they started using is good I can see pictures posts, seen what he has eaten and I can message staff members including management about any issues, they keep us up to date with any illnesses within nursery and are just amazing would highly recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.859)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.859) out of 10 for Dunkys Day Nursery (Warrington) 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 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.859 for Dunkys Day Nursery (Warrington) is calculated as follows: ( (205 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.859
  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 Dunkys Day Nursery (Warrington) is based on 18 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 18 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.
