Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Stars & Sparkles Day Nursery is a lovely place for our 4-year-old to come. There are plenty of varied activities for all the children to play, to get creative and to learn.
Each morning my child happily heads through the door excited to get started, and at the end of the day, is keen to show me what
she has done.
The place is bright, fun and secure, with a good indoor and outdoor space for them to enjoy and explore.
The staff are very friendly and keen to work with the parents to help the children learn and grow. They are also always happy to listen and help with any concerns or questions you may have.
I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parents thinking of bringing their children here.

Review from Samantha B (Mother of Child) published on 1 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Very friendly staff and welcoming setting. My daughter enjoys going into the nursery. There are open activities to keep her entertained and interested. I really like how the nursery staff have a theme based on a book each half term. My daughter has enjoyed this, and she has been able to recite parts
of the book studied that term. Staff are also very informative; each afternoon I am given detailed feedback on what my daughter has been doing and how she has been throughout the day. With our report from her key worker, it was very detailed and accurate. I'm happy with the service we receive!

My child has settled in lovely. He is happy for his (school day). The staff go above and beyond for him. The staff are very good with working with us as a family as well as our child and professionals that are involved. They are easy to contact, and they communicate very well about what they have done
during the day. We are always greeted with a happy smile. We are very happy and thankful to all of the staff for all they do for our child.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.874)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.874) out of 10 for Stars & Sparkles 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 34 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 4.874 for Stars & Sparkles Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (355 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 405 Ratings = 4.874
  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 Stars & Sparkles Day Nursery is based on 34 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 34 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.
