Review from Lucinda T (Mother of Child) published on 23 November 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son loves attending the nursery, he’s always happy to go in and is never reluctant. All the practitioners are lovely and welcoming. They will happily tell me about my son's day at nursery even though they fill out all the information about his day on the my family app. Always answer the questions
me or my partner may have. It’s a great nursery and glad we picked it for our son.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.073)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.073) out of 10 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Cambridge, Grange Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 9 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 4.832 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Cambridge, Grange Road is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.832
  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 4.241 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Cambridge, Grange Road is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 132 number of registered child places is 26.4. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 26.4 = 0.341
  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.

Thulie

Job Title: Nursery Owner and Director Joined: 2020

My name is Thulie and I am a mother to three beautiful children. I spent a considerable amount of time in Sweden and I was very impressed by their take on nursery and pre-school learning, which focuses on child-led learning and creativity, in addition to using the outdoors to encourage exploratory learning. I believe this helps the children at this tender age to develop in leaps and bounds, compared to their peers who are not actively exploring and utilising the natural spaces around them.


I have worked in the City specialising in Finance roles, within multinational companies. Prior to that I worked and managed settings in Social Care, supporting young adults with Autism and Learning Difficulties. The experience I gained in this sector has given me a solid understanding of the importance of Safeguarding, Health and Safety and Compliance within a setting as well as providing a caring and stimulating environment for the people we care for every day.


My promise to parents, who choose to entrust us with their children, is that I will personally work with our very experienced manager and team to create a home from home environment for their children and can be confident that their children are getting the best care, cuddles and comfort.
