Review from Sarah (Mother of Child) published on 19 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son attended the nursery from 2.5 years to 4 years and thoroughly enjoyed it. There were different themes and activities each week, although he only went for 3 days he still got involved with everything that was taking place in the week. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and make the children
so comfortable in their setting. My son started school in Sept and we were told he is doing so well and must have had a good basis of learning from the nursery. My daughter has now just started nursery and we can’t wait to see her grown and learn in this fantastic setting.

Overall very good nursery. The fact that the nursery does not provide any facilities for children who need to get some sleep, is the only thing we struggle with. Napping on the floor/carpet? Who would want to sleep like that?

Fantastic facilities run by warm, friendly, consummate professionals who genuinely care about the children's wellbeing and development; our little girl is clearly enjoying her time there. Regular, concise updates on the children's activities are provided and there is good flexibility for parental check-ins.
We are very happy with our choice of nursery!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic nursery. My children are well cared for and their wellbeing is taken seriously.
The pre-school learning from age three is great and I know the nursery staff are committed to getting children ready for school so they are equipped to deal with their new surroundings.
My only dissatisfaction
is the lack of flexibility regarding nursery days and hours. Term time children's holidays are not aligned to public school holiday dates which would be much more suitable for working parents.

I really can't fault this nursery. It is fantastic! It is extremely well run and ordered whilst at the same time the staff are very compassionate with my daughter. She absolutely loves going here and is often sad to leave! The staff are a pleasure to deal with and the building very modern and attractive.
The nursery encourages outdoor play and uses the school grounds to good effect. Highly recommended! Your child will love it!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can’t rate Burgess Hill Nursery highly enough. The staff are so caring and are so inventive when it comes to interesting my daughter in her learning. I’ve noticed a real improvement in her focus and attention span, as well as her knowledge (letters and numbers and writing skills). They have a new
topic each term which is really nice - she now knows all the planet names thanks to the space topic and we’re really looking forward to Spring when the children will get to watch chicks hatching! It’s a nice balance of structure and play which I think will make the transition to school much easier. Their outside space is also really well equipped and they get to go on walks around the school grounds as well, which my daughter loves. All in all, I can’t think of a single thing to improve on and only wish we’d found it sooner!

Both children have been very happy at the nursery. It feels like a great stepping stone between traditional nurseries and school. They learn a lot but have a lot of fun too. The outside space is fantastic as are the light classrooms. Teachers are warm and welcoming too.

A wonderful nursery, my child is very happy, lots of fun toys to play with plus structured learning, her reading and writing has come on so well and lots of outside play as well. The food provided is great, it encourages my child to try lots of different things. They are very adaptable as well and will
listen to your requests. We love it here and hopefully, my next child will be attending as well once they reach the correct age.

We could not rate Burgess Hill Nursery more highly. Our son has been there for 10 months now and has had a wonderful time there as well as learning so much along the way. We have two older children who went to other nurseries in the area and looking back, we really wish we had known about Burgess Hill
nursery for them too! The nursery itself is spacious and light and the outdoor area is very well equipped too. The nursery children also go on regular walks around the grounds of Burgess Hill Girls which our son always really enjoys. The staff could not be friendlier and more helpful, and we feel they have the balance of structured learning and free play just right. A big thumbs up from us.

I could not be happier with the preschool. The staff are consistent, caring and focused on providing children with the best possible learning environment. My daughter talks of wonderful experiences and we have seen her progress with her writing, numbers and knowledge. I love the creative approach the
preschool uses to help children learn including their social and emotional development. My daughter loves her preschool and tells us it’s lots of fun. I will be sad when it’s her time to leave, but confident she’ll be ready for the next stage in her education.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.897)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.897) out of 10 for Burgess Hill Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 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 4.994 for Burgess Hill Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (155 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.994
  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 4.903 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Burgess Hill Nursery is based on 13 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.903
  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.
