Review from Nike P (Mother of Child) published on 4 May 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My boy enjoys coming to Hampstead Gate Day Nursery, he looks forward to going every time with excitement. I like how staff engages with him as this is evident when he comes home talking about what happened in his day and how exciting it was. The nursery setting is fantastic, rooms are well stocked and
flow well into one another. Personally, I won't hesitate to recommend Hampstead Gate Day Nursery to family and friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hampstead Gate Day Nursery is a beautiful new nursery. It is modern, bright and my daughter loves it. She has settled in so well since starting four months ago. Although the nursery is new, the team make it seem like it has been running for years. I can already see how much my daughters confidence and
character is building whilst being at Hampstead Gate Day Nursery. She loves all of the team members and nearly always gets very excited to see them.

Brilliant and friendly staff, which is always a great start. I always feel happy my little boy is in good and safe hands. He's always happy there and settles really quickly. Fresh cooked meals.
Secure, safe and clean place. I would highly recommend this day nursery.

Hampstead Gate Day Nursery has been a fantastic place for my son over the last two months. The setting is immaculate and full to the brim of all things a three year old could ever want or need! The staff are always so friendly and accommodating. My son is always so happy and wants to talk about his
day with us. Brilliant nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.947)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.947) out of 10 for Hampstead Gate Day Nursery 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.947 for Hampstead Gate Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (248 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.947
  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 Hampstead Gate Day Nursery is based on 22 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 97 number of registered child places is 19.4, which has been reached with 22 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.

What is your favourite feature of Hampstead Gate?
I love the layout of the building; it has a beautiful flow and access to individual gardens from each room. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow lots of natural light and an open feeling. The benefit of the art and woodwork room and the library is also a bonus.


What are you most proud of about your nursery/team?
Hampstead Gate already feels like an established nursery, and the team is like a family. The nursery has a very warm and welcoming feeling.
