Great nursery, really helped my son with his social skills. Every day, he came home with new phrases and songs he learned.
Two specific members of staff especially took the time to know and understand him.
All the staff really friendly, my son loved them all and special thanks to the cook who gave
him hugs every day.

My son started in August 2021 and will leave August 2025. Not only has he always been safe and cared for, he has also made wonderful friends and been fully prepared for starting school. Staff have always been collaborative and really get to know the child and their individual needs. It's been a great
start for my son and peace of mind for us as parents.

We love Banana Moon, it's the only nursery that we visited and didn't feel that we needed to see anymore.
The staff are excellent and so committed to doing the best for the children. The food seems excellent, my son eats so much more at nursery than he does at home. The only thing I would change is
to have reduced sugar in things like yoghurts and in cakes/biscuits or not to offer them at all.
However, this is a very monir point as a very excellent nursery.

Banana Moon Day Nursery is an incredible nursery! All the staff are so warm and friendly. They all really love what they do, take pride in their work and tailor their approach to each child's need - which is rare!
Both my children started at the same time but in different classes, I love the daily
updates with the learning intentions for the day, pictures, food they get involved in, so many activities.
Thank you for encouraging further development for the kids.

My son has been in this nursery for more than three years and he has been learning a lot. I can't believe sometimes how much he has learned and changed. As very busy parents, we trusted them with him and he spends most of his time during the day at the nursery. I have never felt as relaxed and trusting
of a place as I do here. Now that he is 5, he is going to move on. They organised an amazing graduation, I can't believe how nicely it was done and how proud it made us feel. This nursery is one in a million. Thank you guys for looking after my son very well.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.943)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.943) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Croydon is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.943 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Croydon is calculated as follows: ( (463 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 491 Ratings = 4.943

  • b) 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 Banana Moon Day Nursery Croydon is based on 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 75 number of registered child places is 15, which has been reached with 41 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
