Review from Ildiko F (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are incredibly grateful for our child's wonderful experience at the nursery. My son was always welcomed at the door in the morning and went happily into the room. The staff are professional, knowledgeable, caring and attentive to each child's needs. They offer various activities that foster creativity,
learning, and social interaction. We clearly saw what he learned through his time there. We particularly appreciated the regular updates and photos, which kept us connected to our child's daily experiences. It was always lovely to see what a great time our son had! He went to this nursery for 11 months, the only reason we left, was because we moved out of the area.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended Alexander House since she was 16 months old, she is now going to reception in September and we are very sad to be moving on. Alexander House has been an exceptional place for my daughter. The staff supported her in communicating as a child with English as an additional language
and offered her so much love and affection. My daughter is confident, has many friends and talks about all of the creative and exciting experiences that the staff provide. Her primary school teacher is impressed with her ability and knowledge so far and this comes down to Alexander House ensuring she is ready for school. Thank you AHN!

My son and daughter have been really happy at Alexander House. They look forward to going and I know they are loved and looked after their. We particularly enjoyed the family events they've organised such as the zoo trip, football morning, sports day and Christmas party. We can see how the children
are learning and developing and would definitely recommend the nursery.

Such a lovely nursery! Our son absolutely loves going in every morning and adores every member of the staff. He's learned so much, comes home singing songs he learned there, has made lots of friends. I really love how the parents and families are included in lots of activities and gatherings, giving
a real community feel. An amazing place for little ones to grow and learn.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Sending our daughter to Alexander House was one of the best decisions we made as parents.
From day 1 all the staff were amazing - they gave her all the attention she demanded and helped her grow into a confident little girl.
Knowing that she was being cared for made my return to work so much easier
and seeing her beaming smile on pick up made it easier dropping her the next day!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I could have not asked for a better nursery for our son. The teachers are unbelievably loving, caring and nurturing and what stood out to me the most is how they embrace the child's needs at any given moment. Additionally, I love that this nursery is just so very creative when it comes to daily activities.
He learned a tremendous amount there and truly loved his time. The nursery has a great size and feels like a little home.

Lovely nursery, caring teachers and lots of great activities. Our son was 12 months old when starting at Alexander House Wandsworth. He can be shy but completely blossomed at the nursery. We are extremely happy with the care our son has received at Alexander House.

Our daughter has been attending Alexander House Wandsworth for 5 months now and we could not be happier with our choice of nursery. The teachers and staff are so thoughtful and caring, and she can't wait to see her teachers and friends every day, so it feels as if we are leaving her with family when
we drop her off. Although they do not have outdoor space, they venture to the park every day and the staff take care to ensure they enjoy the outdoors. She has also made incredible strides in her development, learning, and confidence since joining. We also appreciate the daily updates on the app and at pickup, as well as the numerous activities that are planned to keep parents involved.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved our daughter over to Alexander House a few months ago and she is just so much happier now compared to the previous nursery she was attending in the area. The teachers are kind, full of life and so friendly! The nursery school is full of fun bright colours and toys and they take the kids out
on exciting adventures and outings often, updating us with photos on the app. I am very impressed with this little school and the warmth from all the staff at every drop-off and pick-up! Since starting at Alexander House my little one toilet trained quickly, stopped using her dummy and has been making friends easily!

My daughter attend Alexander House Nursery for 1 year now and couldn't be happier. Great teachers who really care about the kids, my daughter feels loved, like at home! She is learning so much and doing so many activities like painting and crafts. Every day they go for a walk in the park. Always ready
to help with extra sessions in case of needs and good communication with the management!
Highly recommended!

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.683)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.683) out of 10 for Alexander House Nursery Wandsworth 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 4.9 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 4.783 for Alexander House Nursery Wandsworth is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.783
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Alexander House Nursery Wandsworth 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 9 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.
