Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Just got home from an incredible event hosted by Crafty Wizards at Avery Hill. It was a carnival themed event held on a Saturday, and when I say the staff there pulled out all the stops to ensure the children had the best possible time It was incredible!
I took my two children and my nephew along for
the event and to think that something like this is free to attend and the nursery provide everything there, is just unheard of.
The energy and enthusiasm from every single Crafty wizard member of staff, the communication and conversation flowed beautifully. And the way each and every member of staff interacted with my children and my nephew was just heartwarming.
Each and every member of staff working at the event today deserves a huge applaud of appreciation because a lot of fun was had! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

My daughter has been attending Crafty Wizard for 2 years now and absolutely loves it. My son also attended Crafty Wizard 5 years ago and has developed so well at school from his early years at Crafty Wizard. I highly recommend this nursery. The staff are friendly and so caring with the children. My
daughter is being well looked after everyday.

I would highly recommend Crafty Wizards Pre-School. My child took a while to settle and the staff worked so hard to help my child feel comfortable and confident. I feel they have listened to my child's interests and needs and in return I have a child who is happy and wants to go to nursery. The staff
are very approachable and easy to talk. They make themselves available at both and drop off and pick up. Thank you Crafty Wizards!

Fantastic pre-school, amazing staff, they are accommodating and very kind. They have helped my son's speech a lot. They have helped boost his confidence and his sharing skills, he absolutely loves pre-school and looks forward to going. Couldn't recommend Crafty Wizards Avery Hill more than I already

Cannot recommend this preschool enough! My son has attended for the past 2 years and is leaving to go to Primary School prepared and ready to take it on. My son loved attending all the trips to the park, forest school, library, sports day, and bus trips. The staff have been amazing, nothing is ever
too much trouble and the communication has been great through the app and email.
Sad for my son to leave but know I will be sending my youngest when he is old enough!

As soon as I visited Crafty Wizards I felt immediately comfortable that my son would be safe and happy here. The staff are very welcoming and are aware of how it feels to be a parent to let your little one go for the first time. All of the staff have gotten to know my son and have shared observations
that I, as his mother, have also noticed. I love that I get to see social media photos of him during the day. They set up lots of activities and have a large selection of toys children can access and make their decisions about play. Highly recommend.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.917)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.917) out of 10 for Crafty Wizards Pre-School - Avery Hill Park 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.917 for Crafty Wizards Pre-School - Avery Hill Park is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.917
  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 Crafty Wizards Pre-School - Avery Hill Park is based on 13 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 25 number of registered child places is 5, which has been reached with 13 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.
