My daughter has been attending Banana Moon Stirchley since October 2021 and we couldn't be happier with her progress. The nursery facilities are top class and the staff are wonderful. She loves going to nursery and we feel lucky to have it available to us.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
After a year at a different nursery with our first child, we were keen to improve our experience. Banana Moon Day Nursery Stirchley was a breath of fresh air. The team are so welcoming and allowed us to be very involved with the settling-in process. We have two children with them and both have settled
in beautifully. The staff are warm and friendly and my children are rarely returned to me overly messy, tired or hungry (unlike the previous nursery!). We’re delighted with Banana Moon and happy we joined.
Reply from Charlotte Robbins, Director at Banana Moon Day Nursery StirchleyThank you for a great review. It’s a pleasure having you all at the nursery

All the staff are amazing and understanding, all staff take their time to say morning or goodbye to each individual. My son has been going now for a year and loves every moment, the support he is given as a child with speech delay is amazing.
Reply from Charlotte Robbins, Director at Banana Moon Day Nursery StirchleyThank you for your lovely review. I will share this with our staff team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fabulous nursery! Very clean, modern and has plenty of toys and activities to keep the children busy all day. The staff genuinely care about every child that attends. Even the members of staff that don't work closely with my daughter know her name and take the time to greet her when they see her and
tell me how well she seems to have settled in which is so lovely. My daughter is really happy here and enjoys telling me what she's been up to. She loves playing football and in the sandboxes outside. If the weather isn't too bad then the door to the garden is kept open so she can go in and out as she pleases (obviously under supervision at all times). Another great aspect is the positive changes in her behaviour at home. Cannot fault this place in the slightest! Thank you.
Reply from Charlotte Robbins, Director at Banana Moon Day Nursery StirchleyThank you for sharing the feedback with us, we will be sure to share this with the team. It is wonderful to hear how well the transition has gone.

Review from K A (Mother of Child) published on 22 September 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We chose this nursery because it was perfectly located for the school run to local schools. We've been there for around 9 months and so far it's lovely. In the baby room the staff are so caring towards the children, if they are upset for any reason it's met with lots of cuddles, just as you would at
home as a parent. They really work get to know the children and work to their routine and interests. They are always ready with advice and helpful little suggestions for everything child-related too.
My only down points are that you have to provide your own nappies and wipes (at my eldest's nursery it was all included for the same price) and that on the app I don't see many photos but that might be because we aren't there all week.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Transferred our little boy over at 1 year old after having been with another nursery for about 5 months. This one was closer to us which was the main reason for choosing but we are really happy with the decision overall as fantastic facilities, lovely staff team and always lots of fun activities for
the little ones. Our toddler enjoys his days at nursery and we get good regular updates and news on the app.
Reply from Charlotte Pooler, Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery StirchleyThank you for sharing the feedback with us - we are thrilled to hear it has been a successful transition.

My daughter has absolutely loved it there from the first day I took her. As soon as we get there, she's running down the corridor to see all her friends and doesn't want to leave when I come and pick her up.
Reply from Charlotte Robbins, Director at Banana Moon Day Nursery StirchleyThank You for your feedback - this is so lovely to hear! It is a pleasure being part of your early learning journey.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It's been really good the staff are lovely and my daughter really likes going to nursery it's not a morning drag she looks forward to going and seeing the staff and her friends. She comes home and tells us all about her day which tells me she's mentally stimulated and enjoys the activities the staff
put on. The regular updates and photos through the app are also a fantastic way of interaction for parents to see what the kids are up to.
Reply from Charlotte Robbins, Director at Banana Moon Day Nursery StirchleyThis is wonderful to hear, and we are so pleased that our regular updates help you understand your child's time with us.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.678)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.678) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Stirchley 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 18 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 4.828 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Stirchley is calculated as follows: ( (178 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.828
  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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Banana Moon Day Nursery Stirchley is based on 18 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.95
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.9
  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.
