Our little boy has attended The Red Brick Day Nursery since May 2019 and he leaves next week. His experience has been amazing and we can not fault the staff, any issues have been addressed. The nursery has a caring ethos and throughout our son's time, he has been cared for and nurtured. We feel the
environment is safe and stimulating which has encouraged our son to be curious, explore and learn about the world around him. Outdoor play happens come rain or shine. Thank you Red Brick for all you have done.

A wonderful nursery with excellent staff, and friendly teachers with great skills to prepare the children for reception.
I have my opinion because my child is in every day and very excited to fo to the nursery because he knows what he will achieve. New skills, new aptitudes and gain new friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended this nursery from 9 months until the age of 2. Placing her at The Red Brick Day Nursery was one of the best decisions I have made. With their support, my daughter has developed into a confident and happy little girl. All the staff at Redbrick are amazing and truly care for the children.
They provide a safe, nurturing and positive environment where children can explore and develop their independence. There are great indoor and outdoor facilities at Redbrick as well as a huge variety of scheduled activities throughout the week.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 9-months-old. She is now 4. My daughter has a dairy and soya allergy, and they have adapted their menus to suit.
The staff are very friendly and approachable, and my child is extremely happy there.
I believe the staff care very much for the
children.
I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery has been amazing to my little girl. I couldn’t recommend them enough to anyone I encountered. I’m so sad to be withdrawing my child as they have been so lovely and understanding for the last year. My child has had an amazing experience and made great connections with the staff. After returning
to the nursery after 6 months away due to COVID lockdown they have been so amazing at settling her back in. Thank you to everyone at the Red Brick for being so kind and accommodating.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Red Brick at 8.5 months old and has now left for school, my daughter still attends the nursery. It has been a brilliant experience in all age groups, the setting has allowed them to learn and explore while feeling happy and safe. They have made friends and adore their teachers. I love
seeing what they get up to and how they are developing on Tapestry. Highly recommend this Nursery.

This nursery has gone above and beyond for my daughter. After having to switch nursery’s I was extremely worried regarding the transition but all the staff members made my daughter feel so welcome and attends to her every need. They are extremely helpful even with home queries they are always eager
to give me tips. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since joining this home from home environment and I could not fault it in any way. They are constantly upgrading the nursery’s decor to include new activities. I would 1000% recommend.

The Red Brick Day Nursery have gone above and beyond for not just my child but to suit the needs of our family. Not only are they incredibly flexible and accommodating, but my child who has always been a fussy eater now also enjoys fresh homemade meals whilst at nursery and at home. My child has been
attending the nursery for 7 months now and the whole team has become a second family to us, we couldn’t recommend them any more!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.910)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.910 for The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road is calculated as follows: ( (296 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.91
  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 The Red Brick Day Nursery - Welford Road is based on 27 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 27 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.
