Review from Anna D (Mother of Child) published on 25 April 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since joining Little Angels Nursery, my son has had a very happy and positive experience. He looks forward to going into nursery every day. I'm very pleased with the Little Angels Nursery, due to the fact our son has bloomed at the nursery and he is more confident in his abilities. We put much of this
down to the warm care, attention and support he has received at the nursery.

Thank you for this lovely review Anna. We enjoy having your son with us and look forward to seeing him as much as he looks forward to seeing us.

My son has been attending the Grove site of Little Angels since the beginning of 2015. I find the setting to be absolutely fantastic.
The staff are friendly, welcoming and above all very caring.
The staff have helped my son develop his confidence and he always has lots to tell me about his day.
Would
recommend highly.

My little girl has been attending Little Angels Day Care since Jan 2018 and loves it. She has come on leaps and bounds and is happier here then she was at her previous one!
Will be sad come July when she leaves for reception.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Limited experience so far due to son only just starting and just doing one session a week.
The best indicator is that my child can't wait to get in the door and is very happy.
Staff are appropriately affectionate and obviously really value the children they work with.
My child has some additional
needs.
Staff have been very keen how to best support him whilst always welcoming and valuing him as a little boy, not a diagnosis!

My daughter was not sure at first about Little Angels but after a few sessions she now really enjoys it and shouts 'school' whenever we drive into the carpark!
The staff are lovely and couldn't help you enough - they are very accommodating and if I need anything extra at the last minute they are very
helpful.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.683)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.683) out of 10 for Little Angels Day Care is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.683 for Little Angels Day Care is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Poors x 2) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.683
  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 Little Angels Day Care is based on 13 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 38 number of registered child places is 7.6, which has been reached with 13 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.
