Review from Ashleigh M (Mother of Child) published on 8 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent nursery, my daughter started at Early Learners in September, she took a while to get settled as she is a mummy’s girl and didn’t like me leaving her but all the staff in the baby room worked hard to bond with her and settle her in which I was so happy with, they kept me updated throughout
the day to make me feel better about leaving her. After a few weeks, she now goes in full of smiles and enjoys her time at Early Learners. Overall I am really happy with all the staff and the nursery in general. My little girl is also fond of the food at early learners if she doesn’t eat the main meal they offer her an alternative which I am grateful for.
The nursery is always clean!
Excellent nursery, excellent staff and excellent food.

Review from James B (Father of Child) published on 7 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl started at Early Learners in November 2022 in the baby room and has loved it from the beginning, the staff in the baby room were welcoming and supportive of her settling in. All the staff in the setting are friendly and approachable. She has formed amazing relationships with her key person
and will happily go in. She has come on leaps and bounds at nursery and the staff support is fab when we are struggling with things like sleeping and eating and you can tell they have experience based on their own children or having worked with children for some time. She has so much fun and the weekly social media posts mean we can share what she is up to with family and friends easily. The app is brilliant in keeping us updated on how she is getting on through the day. The outside area is one of her favourite places to be and the whole nursery is welcoming and clean, with well throughout and set-up rooms. We look forward to seeing her progress through the nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Early Learners Eccleston is a fantastic nursery. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. My little girl loves going to nursery.
There is a different theme every week like musical instruments, wizarding book-themed week. It keeps things fun and interesting for her.
She has come on so much since
being there, even though it's only been a few months since she started.
I would recommend the nursery to anyone.

Review from Z R (Mother of Child) published on 6 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely brilliant nursery. My two kids go to this nursery (age 1 and 3). I have witnessed first-hand how good each room is.
You can tell that they only employ the best people.
I feel like they really listen to you about nap times and other things. I trust them and feel comfortable leaving my
kids with them. My oldest has come on greatly since starting nearly a year ago.
They are organised and update the app every day and sometimes upload pictures which is really good. They also respond very quickly to messages on the app.
The nursery is always clean and they have a good range of toys which I know they enjoy and they love the outside area.
Would 100% recommend.

Early Learners is an amazing nursery! My daughter loves her teachers. All Staff are friendly and welcoming and help in any way they can, I couldn’t fault anything since my daughter has started. Lots of indoor and outdoor activities going on each week. They make fun things to do for the children to help
them learn.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.908)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.908) out of 10 for Early Learners Nursery Eccleston 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.908 for Early Learners Nursery Eccleston is calculated as follows: ( (234 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.908
  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 Early Learners Nursery Eccleston is based on 20 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 81 number of registered child places is 16.2, which has been reached with 20 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.
