Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Orange Tree is an absolutely fantastic nursery. After a bad experience and moving our son from another nursery nearby, The Orange Tree has been our saving grace. The staff are wonderful. From the moment we walked in to look around they were welcoming, friendly and so professional. They have put
so much effort into getting to know our son and making him feel safe and happy. If our son has had a wobble at drop off in the morning, the staff have gone out of their way to calm and distract him and have really put my mind at rest. The staff make excellent use of the EYlog and we use it regularly at home too. I can’t explain how lovely it is to receive photos and videos of our son having so much fun at nursery whilst we are at work! Our son loves the environment, staff and routines at the nursery. The most important thing is that he absolutely loves going to nursery. We can’t recommend The Orange Tree enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little boy started at The Orange Tree Day Nursery this month. He's just turned 1 and has never spent more than an hour or two away from me so naturally, he was very upset to start with. However, within a week he was happily going over to his key worker on arrival. Three weeks in he's settled enough
to nap there (something we even have difficulty with at home) and I cannot praise the staff enough. Dad does all the drop offs and pick ups so I love having the daily diary and eyLog - it is great being able to see how he's getting on and communicate with the staff, even though I don't see them. They have also catered brilliantly to his dietary requirements. Overall, a fantastic transition to nursery and we couldn't be happier!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.693)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.693) out of 10 for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Derby 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 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 4.964 for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Derby is calculated as follows: ( (163 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.964
  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 4.729 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Orange Tree Day Nursery @ Derby is based on 14 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.2 = 0.729
  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.
