Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
From the first point of contact with Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Poole I was very impressed with the organisation. Both the manager and staff were very informative and friendly when we made an initial visit and on my sons settling in days. My son took some time to settle down but with the right
guidance from the staff, he now enjoys the afternoons he attends. I have an excellent rapport of what he has achieved during his attendance what he has eaten etc. The excellent toys and equipment have been a great help to him. The nursery also ensures he has a milk free diet. The cleanliness of the nursery is excellent.

Very friendly and professional staff. They have been very accommodating to our needs at very short notice. Children spend as much time outside which is lovely.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Friendly and happy staff, very welcoming, always helpful, my daughter had an off morning and was upset leaving me which got me very emotional, but with the help from one of the teachers, I walked away very reassured and calm. They afford me to ring them on my break at work if I wanted to check she was
ok, just for a piece of mind. Great menu for the children as well, would recommend this pre-school to everyone!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.869)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.869) out of 10 for Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Poole 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.869 for Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Poole is calculated as follows: ( (240 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 274 Ratings = 4.869
  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 Happy Days Nursery & Pre-School - Poole is based on 23 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 81 number of registered child places is 16.2, which has been reached with 23 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.
