Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
RAFA Kidz Medmenham has provided the perfect environment for my daughter. She started at the nursery a year ago and her confidence and development have continued to flourish month after month. The staff are exceptional and go out of their way to provide the children with a place where they feel safe
and cared for, it really is like sending my daughter to her extended family and she can not wait to put on her shoes and go to 'school' every day.

Review from S G (Mother of Child) published on 7 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I absolutely love our RAFA Kidz Medmenham nursery! My daughter loves it too and has only cried recently when I’ve tried to take her home at the end of the day! She loves all the staff and her new friends and I am genuinely delighted to leave her in their care. Beyond the team, the nursery space itself
is very special, with plenty of varied activity, a wonderful outdoor space and special events run from time to time. The recent charity bike ride means Martha now loves her balance bike at home! My only request would be to have more sight of menus and greater detail on what the children have eaten for each meal made available on the app. It’s sometimes very difficult to gauge how much and what she has eaten during the day (all three meals) and I sometimes waste a lot of food offering a snack in the evening. More updates on the app would save asking every time.

Review from H S (Mother of Child) published on 7 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A brilliant nursery that supports the military family and provides wonderful care, activities and facilities in which my children have thrived throughout their nursery experience. The staff really do put their heart into caring for the children and go above and beyond to ensure the children are well
cared for and have experiences and activities which are fun, educational and interesting for them. The nursery has recently changed ownership and this has really made a big difference with fair pricing for military families and, in my opinion, better support for the staff and facilities for the children than under the previous owners. Really really pleased with the care they have provided for my children over the last 3 years.

Fantastic staff, amazing facilities, and a magical place for the children to play and learn. Everything from the children’s reports to the quality of the food, from the outdoor space to the overall management - it's all first class.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.786)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.786) out of 10 for RAFA Kidz Medmenham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.986 for RAFA Kidz Medmenham is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.986
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for RAFA Kidz Medmenham is based on 12 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 = 3.8
    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 53 number of registered child places is 10.6, which has been reached with 12 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.
