Review from C S (Mother of Child) published on 6 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Great nursery with great and caring staff. Our son absolutely loves it there! Although there isn't a lot of outside space, they make the most of the space that's there and the kids will go outside on days where the weather permits it, and they will also occasionally take the kids to a nearby park. I
occasionally walk past the nursery during the day and you can always hear the kids laughing and having a great time. I would definitely recommend this nursery to friends and family!

I'm thrilled with my baby daughter's nursery. Her key worker is fantastic and truly caring, which makes a huge difference. The range of activities keeps her engaged, and it's impressive how much she's learned already. The food is lovely, and the staff are kind and attentive. I highly recommend this
nursery for any parent seeking a nurturing environment for their child.

Review from Beth K (Mother of Child) published on 24 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of our children have attended this nursery. One from baby to school and one from baby until now. Our key workers have been very consistent throughout, the staffing has barely changed since 2020. The Manager is just lovely too. The professionalism of this smaller family run nursery impresses us.
Our children have loved coming to nursery and have been excited with all the activities and well resourced rooms.
We have ways been welcomed into the nursery which is beautiful, calm and clean, being able to go inside was really important to us as we were there since covid and many nurseries didn't start having parents in again after that.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
The care and staff were great but found the management failed to address our concerns and were poor communicators. We felt that the nursery met expectations for the care of our child but that promises made by email weren't kept and there was a lot of contradictions throughout.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.519)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.519) out of 10 for House on The Dials Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 4 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 4.700 for House on The Dials Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (52 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (2 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.7
  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 3.819 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for House on The Dials Day Nursery is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 45 number of registered child places is 9. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 0.444
  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.
