Our children have been attending Summerhouse for over a year now and we can honestly say it's the best nursery we have used. All the aunties are amazing, helpful and make us feel at ease. The kids are all smiles on the days they go and even ask to go when they aren't booked, for me that says it all!
Thank
you Summerhouse for all you do.
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Manager at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments. I will pass these on to the team. It is a pleasure to watch the two of them grow and become so confident.

My daughter has been coming to Summerhouse Out of School Club since last year and she’s so happy here! She always asks to go and meet her friends. All the aunties are amazing and dedicated, they are doing lots of activities together, learning and playing. The playground is very well-organised and all
the children have something to do, either playing football, going on the slide, climbing, playing in the wood house or cooking in their special little kitchen, there is always something for everyone. My daughter is a very fussy eater but she started to try new foods and this is just “wow”. Summerhouse is the best nursery with very high standards and quality and I feel fortunate to have my daughter here. Thank you!
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Manager at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments. It is a pleasure to watch her grow and to explore and try new things.

My daughter loves attending the setting, she’s happy, healthy and thriving and I feel that Summerhouse plays a big part in that.
I’ve been really happy with the care she’s received and the team are knowledgeable, caring, fun but also runs a tight ship. She’s learnt so much from their early years programme
and I would recommend them to anyone with a child aged 2 plus. The only negative is children can’t start until they are 2 years old.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Summerhouse and all the aunties. Our son has come on leaps and bounds since he's been going for 30 hours a week. A friend recommended them and we are so pleased they did. Our little one is really happy and excited in the mornings to go there. Their flexibility
has been outstanding and they've been so accommodating to our needs as my shifts can change from week to week. We also love the little handmade things he comes home with they are so thoughtful. Thank you everyone for your hard work.

My little boy has been with Summerhouse for nearly 2 years now and he absolutely loves it. He is very well looked after when he’s there and I don’t worry about that one bit, he’s always so excited to go and always kept busy with different activities and plenty to do. The staff are amazing at their jobs
and it really shows. Couldn’t be happier with this nursery.

My little boy absolutely loves it here. They really have exceeded my expectations. Having had previous experience with his older sibling at 2 other nurseries I can honestly say this place goes way above and beyond other settings. The staff seem to really enjoy looking after and teaching the children
and that shines through. Their outside area is phenomenal and the activities and imaginative play encouraged are just brilliant.
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Manager at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments; we love our outdoor area for the children to play and explore and this helps with their learning. It is a pleasure to be able to be part of your son's early years and watch him grow.

My youngest son has attended the nursery for a while now and has always been really happy attending. Since starting nursery class he has developed attachment anxiety and the aunties at Summerhouse have gone above and beyond to help ease his anxiety and mine!
The nursery is a genuine home-from-home
kind of setting, the staff provide an exceptional level of care and compassion. I only wish I’d found the setting while my oldest was younger!

I often drop off and collect my 3 grandsons to and from Summerhouse. I must say how happy they are when they know they are going and also when they have been. They have lots of exciting stories to tell me about their time there. They also love the food they are given which is brilliant as they are fussy
eaters.
It is obvious to me in seeing them so relaxed and content that they are looked after very well here which in turn makes an old worrier like me very happy!

Our son has been attending this nursery/after-school club for the past eight years and they have always been so caring, compassionate and professional. Our son tells us every week how much he enjoys going and he talks very highly of all the aunties and uncles. We would highly recommend it to anyone.

My child has been with Summerhouse for over four years now and I cannot recommend them enough. Summerhouse and all the aunties provide a home from home environment for the children, they create memories for the children to last a lifetime and always go that extra mile, ensuring the care the children
receive is person-centred at all times. My child adores his time at Summerhouse and is always asking to go. It's peace of mind for every parent, knowing your child is happy and well cared for. Thank you for everything, you're the best.
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Manager at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments. It has been a pleasure to watch your son grow and develop into the person he has become. I will pass on your feedback to the Aunties.

My son is really happy at the nursery, and that is all that counts to me. We moved him from another nursery when he was old enough, and every one was fantastic trying to settle him in. All the aunties are always friendly, yet professional, and my son always seems to have had a whale of a time!

My son has been coming to Summerhouse for the past five years. He is always happy to attend and we have always found the staff caring, fun and approachable. As one of the older groups now, there are always activities available for him that he enjoys. He has really enjoyed being involved in some recent
community charity work and learning that Summerhouse won an award for this.
Reply from Amanda Dickin, Manager at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments; we are really pleased that the older children have a dedicated Auntie and activities are based on their age group and feedback. They really love the opportunity of the community engagement projects we have engaged in within the local community.

An absolutely fantastic nursery, week after month after year. This service and standards are 10/10. The little one loves the nursery and all of the staff. They're incredibly kind and always willing to chat.

Our son has been attending Summerhouse for just over a year now, and he absolutely loves it there; all of the aunts are amazing and treat the children like they are their own family.
The food the children receive is always good quality and nutritious, and they try and spend as much time outside with
them as possible (weather dependent).
I wouldn't think twice about recommending this nursery setting to anyone looking for childcare for their child.
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Manager at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you for your lovely comments. It has been a pleasure watching your little one become more independent and confident. We love seeing his happy smiley face.

A brilliant setting for my girls. They love going,g and the place is just perfect for them. All staff are professional, and nothing is too much trouble. My girls have been in different nurseries around the area, and this is certainly the best! One child has been at Summerhouse since it opened and, in
a few years, will be in high school.

This nursery is exceptional - the level of care is impeccable. Both our foster children have been here, and one is still here. The aunties are like family; they have not only helped our 5-year-old with his speech development, as he wasn't talking when placed with us, but they have also brought confidence
in our 3-year-old. They have helped us in our transition as kinship carers. I can not recommend the staff and the nursery enough; they go above and beyond with every child - the kids love it here. If I could give ten stars, I would - thank you.
Reply from Heidi Crompton, Owner at Summerhouse Out of School ClubThank you so much for these lovely comments - the Aunties were tearful when I read them out to them. It has been a pleasure to care for both children and to see how much they have grown in confidence and independence.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.976)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.976) out of 10 for Summerhouse Out of School Club 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.976 for Summerhouse Out of School Club is calculated as follows: ( (243 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 249 Ratings = 4.976
  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 Summerhouse Out of School Club is based on 21 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 34 number of registered child places is 6.8, which has been reached with 21 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.
