- Overall experience is good. Staff love the kids.
- The organisation could be improved. In spring and summer they supposed to have some outings to visit different places, but often they didn't happen on the announced day.
- Kid enjoyed her time at nursery. Variety of activities can be improved.
- Embrace different culture/festival/theme-based activities.

My son has been at the nursery since he was 2, he is now 4 and ready for reception. I have been overly happy with the nursery and all the efforts of the staff. They have always gone above and beyond with the kids and work really well with the parents to maintain good behaviour and routines moving forward.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

I love this nursery, the kids are well-engaged in activities, and they learn things at the same time. It's just difficult to make payments during off-terms, that's the only thing I am struggling with.

"All of my children have attended this nursery, and we couldn't be happier. The staff are always friendly, helpful, and truly care about the children. It's been amazing to see how much my kids have learned and grown during their time here. This nursery has played such an important role in their early

My experience with Medua Bilingual Nursery has been excellent. The staff have been very patient, caring and supportive of my son's progress throughout. It had been a difficult adjustment period for my son at the start of his tenure and Medua Bilingual Nursery. I am very thankful of the effort and hard
work they have displayed to support my son. My wife and I have been updated of my sons progress every time our son has gained more confidence, knowledge and social skills that is vital of his growth. Thank you so much Medua Bilingual Nursery! Thank you so much to all the staff for all your effort!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am incredibly grateful to have found Medua Bilingual Nursery for my children. My 18-month-old son has been attending this nursery for 8 months, following in the footsteps of his brother, who started there at 10 months old and continued until reception class. The care and attention my son receives
here is exceptional. The staff are warm, nurturing, and genuinely invested in the well-being, education, and communication of the children. My son always comes home happy and content, which speaks volumes about the environment and the quality of care provided.
The facilities are clean, safe, and filled with engaging activities that promote learning and development. My son's progress in his development and socialization is amazing.
I highly recommend Medua Bilingual Nursery to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring nursery for their little ones.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I couldn't be more happy with the service provided by the manager and her team. They go above and beyond for my two boys and it's truly appreciated.
As an example: last summer, she set up sessions on Saturdays to help children with speech difficulties, including the parents in the activities, and made
it fun for everybody. By the end of the series, my child's speech had improved tremendously. The kids are also well prepared for reception: my oldest knew all his phonics going out of the nursery and is now an avid reader and is also very good in French and asks about them often.
The little ones are also taught the importance of kindness, respect and teamwork. The nursery also organises fun activities such as trips to the sea, amusement parks, the library and swimming.
They also give regular updates on my child's progress and make a work plan with specific milestones to be achieved by the end of a certain period. In short, I am very pleased with Medua and highly recommend them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending Medua Bilingual Nursery for nearly two years, following in the footsteps of my older son, who was also enrolled there. I must say, this is the best nursery we have found in our area.
The teachers at Medua Bilingual Nursery are outstanding. They genuinely care about the
well-being and development of my children in every aspect, from behaviour to academics. The bilingual program has been incredibly beneficial, and I have seen significant progress in my children's language skills and overall growth.
The nurturing environment and dedicated staff make Medua Bilingual Nursery a wonderful place for children to learn and grow. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring, supportive, and effective early childhood education experience.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.735)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.735) out of 10 for Medua Bilingual Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.735 for Medua Bilingual Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.735
  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 Medua Bilingual Nursery is based on 16 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 16 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.
