Review from J P (Mother of Child) published on 16 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A very welcoming setting, with warm and friendly staff. When you spend time with them you can see that they care for all of the children and know them as individuals. The staff are approachable, and always willing to help and will always answer any questions. The setting is always set up with age-related
activities which are fun and engaging for the children. The nursery has a good community feel, working with local businesses and schools throughout the area. We have regular contact through the app, where we can see pictures, look at progress and send direct messages, no matter what time of day. The staff at Thatto Playdays always go above and beyond for parents and children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I highly recommend this nursery. The building is a beautiful space for the child with lots of toys and engaging activities. The staff are incredible and have amazing bonds with the children. They have helped me with my daughter with referrals, putting things in place and pointing me in the right direction
to get the best help for my daughter. Most of all, my daughter loves going to nursery. As a mum, especially with a speech-delayed child. You worry if your child is enjoying nursery if everything is ok. Although my daughter can't tell me she loves it, the big smiles on her face going in and coming out tell me everything I need to know. 10/10.

Thatto Heath Playdays is a fabulous nursery. It has given my son the best start to his education. All the staff are polite, caring and want the very best for the children in their care. The experiences offered at the nursery are incredible and I haven't seen any other nurseries that offer such a variety
of activities for children. My son has flourished every day under the care of the staff and we are looking forward to another year of him being at the nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is an amazing nursery. All the staff are always on hand for support. I especially love how everyone knows my child's name, whether they work directly with him or not. There is a real sense of family in the nursery and all the children are friendly and considerate. Our key worker and management
are always more than happy to help, whether in an informal conversation or even by arranging meetings to suit us. They freely exchange information and offer input into my child's developmental needs and tailor support to him. I'm so glad this is where my child began his educational journey and built his first relationships outside our family circle.

Our daughter attended Thatto Heath Playdays for two years and absolutely loved her time there. The staff have always been so polite and helpful and are really sad that it is now time for our daughter to leave to start school. I would 100% recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Outstanding in all areas, honestly cannot fault Thattho Heath Playdays staff in anything. My daughter has been going there for one year and is about to start preschool there too. We turned down an offer to go to her school nursery because she is so settled and happy here. We have our second daughter
on the way and we're hoping they will open a baby room soon! All staff provide the kids with love and care, activities are well planned in advance, they have got a good balance of structured activities, free play, physical activities every day. They also go out and about in the neighbourhood including the library for example to help broaden the kids' experience. Parents are updated with pictures every day and there's parents evenings twice a year ensuring that parents and nursery are working together to help the child's development. From the bottom of our heart, thank you for all you do.

This nursery is amazing at keeping everyone involved with the children well-informed and up-to-date with their progress. Communication is very good at all times. The opportunities and experiences the children are given are second to none. They encourage the children to feel part of and have pride in
the community. The staff genuinely care for each and every child and lead by example therefore creating fantastic role models. I could not wish for a better start to education for my grandchild.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.779)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.779) out of 10 for Thatto Heath Playdays 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.979 for Thatto Heath Playdays is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.979
  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 Thatto Heath Playdays is based on 8 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 = 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 39 number of registered child places is 7.8, which has been reached with 8 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.
