Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff at Monkey Puzzle Stevenage have been so fantastic helping my daughter settle in. She's grown so much in confidence and I love that parents are kept included through the app and regular updates. I would recommend the nursery to any anxious parents looking for a supportive setting for their
children.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.968) out of 10 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stevenage 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.968 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stevenage is calculated as follows: ( (244 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.968
  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 Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stevenage is based on 21 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 83 number of registered child places is 16.6, which has been reached with 21 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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager / Director Joined: 2024

Nursery Manager and Director - I am also the owner of our other setting Monkey Puzzle Astwick, which I opened 5 years ago. I have 25 years experience of managing settings for large chains and I also have 3 children of my own that keep we very busy!
I love seeing children learn and grow with us, and supporting them through their early years until they go to school as it is the most rewarding career and something I have always loved. Having the opportunity to create my own setting has been amazing.
I have a huge passion for giving children the opportunity to learn outside too and this is part of the reason I chose the Stevenage setting, due to its beautiful huge garden, for our little ones to explore. I feel children need to feel safe, loved and secure to learn best, and we do this by having fun and engaging them in activities that will ignite their interests and encourage them to get involved. I also highly value my team, as feel you can have the most beautiful setting, but without a passionate, caring and highly qualified team, it will not be a great setting. We invest in lots of training for our team and make them feel valued so we retain the best staff long term.
