The Review Score of 8.3 (maximum of 10) for Ladybird Nursery - Penge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 2 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Ladybird Nursery - Penge in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 2 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.542 for Ladybird Nursery - Penge is calculated as follows: ( (13 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.542
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 3.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ladybird Nursery - Penge is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 = 3.25
Target of 4 positive Reviews (20 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 2 Reviews ÷ 4 Target = 0.500
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

Our son has attended this Nursery since it opened a year ago. We are happy with the care provided by staff who are friendly and caring. You are kept informed about the day through an app and staff are always willing to discuss the day/concerns etc at the end of each day.
Our son has settled in well and often doesn’t want to leave in the evening because he’s had plenty of fun

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Laura G (Mother of Child) on Wednesday 31 January 2018. Relates to January 2018.
Our daughter has been in the baby room at Ladybird Nursery - Penge for the past 6 months and is only leaving as we are relocating out of London. The staff at the nursery have been extremely welcoming and really care about each of the children in their care. It is obvious from parent meetings and ongoing conversations with staff that they really know and understand my daughter well and I have always felt 100% confident leaving her in their care. Every day there is a range of activities that are set up both in the room and outside and my daughter has a very good relationship with her key worker too and has made lots of progress since she has been at the nursery. If you are looking for a small, friendly and caring nursery then I recommend this nursery without hesitation.
