Review from Laura C (Mother of Child) published on 11 November 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter started at Westhill Nursery in the summer and she loves it. In a short time, I have noticed her confidence grow and her language and development flourish. I have been especially impressed by the teachers who are so kind and nurturing and have got to know her really well. The activities
are planned around themes and we receive updates on an app so we know what she has been doing and can talk to her about it at home. She often comes home with things from her day such as paintings, crafts, a new library book, cakes she has helped to cook or flowers, acorns and other treasures she's collected during rambles. The nursery building is beautiful with a large garden and the children also use the facilities on the school campus. We also appreciate the freshly cooked food and snacks and holiday club provision. I am really happy that we chose Westhill Nursery and so grateful to the teachers for creating a wonderful, nurturing and fun environment where I feel she is thriving.
Reply from Sian Hickmott, Nursery Manager at Westhill Nursery at Ryde SchoolDear Laura, Thank you for your lovely feedback it is greatly appreciated. We are very fortunate to have access to the Main school facilities which we utilise to the full. When planning activities we follow the EYFS framework and also place great emphasis on language and speech development. We are lucky enough to have the most beautiful bespoke library with hand-painted murals on the walls. The children find the room calming and enjoy the experience of choosing stories to read with their parents at bedtime. I'm pleased that you are enjoying our Holiday provision.

My child literally runs to nursery, he enjoys all the activities and looks forward to see all the staff. He always talks positively about Westhill and we have never regretted choosing the nursery. Every week there are new activities and challenges for him.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.973 for Westhill Nursery at Ryde School is calculated as follows: ( (257 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 4.973
  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 Westhill Nursery at Ryde School is based on 22 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 22 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.
