Review from Beverley C (Mother of Child) published on 8 December 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have nothing but positive comments about Banana Moon. Our days are Tuesday/Wednesday, and our daughter is really happy there. The staff are always so helpful and friendly. They really care and support our daughter. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the staff, and the app is a great way of keeping
track of our daughter's day/progress. We would highly recommend Banana Moon - 3 of our friends have moved their children to the nursery!

Review from Lyndsey E (Mother of Child) published on 17 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter moved to this nursery when it first opened from another nursery who I lost trust with. Since starting my daughter has grown in confidence and has come on immensely. When first starting, my daughter had a milk allergy which the nursery took seriously and I never had any issues or slip-ups,
unlike the previous nursery. I will be extremely sad when my daughter moves on into nursery in September, but I am truly happy all the staff have given her the skills she needs to succeed in the future.

Review from Sana (Mother of Child) published on 12 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at Banana Moon Davyhulme since it opened practically and has transitioned from being a Baby Moon to now being a Full Moon (preschool). The nursery has provided a home away from home environment with the intimate setting they have and also the staff who are warm, friendly and approachable.
It’s very reassuring to see those even at management and director level take an interest in the children despite not being involved in their care on a day to day basis. Any suggestions and comments are acted on immediately and I have not felt concerned about leaving my son in the care of the nursery as I did at his previous nursery. The nursery has gone through many changes as is expected for any new enterprise but is emerging as an organised, educational, friendly atmosphere for children to be. The food is all cooked on site and they cater for my son who has a Halal diet without hesitation. I have no doubt that any future child of mine will also attend this lovely nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery has been fantastic with my son. He has come on so much within the last couple of months. Being a working mummy, I found it hard to leave my son until I came to the nursery and saw how fantastic the staff are with the children. I would highly recommend the nursery to all my family, friends
and work colleagues.

The nursery setting and the staff are very welcoming. My daughter has so much fun here and is extremely happy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter loves it here. The staff are welcoming and have helped us settle into the nursery really well. Communication is always brilliant and I know everything she has eaten, drank and participated in that day. It is a big nursery with a lovely outside space. I would definitely recommend this nursery
to other parents.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.940)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.940) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Davyhulme 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 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.940 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Davyhulme is calculated as follows: ( (397 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 420 Ratings = 4.94
  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 Banana Moon Day Nursery Davyhulme is based on 35 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 51 number of registered child places is 10.2, which has been reached with 35 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.
