Review from N S (Mother of Child) published on 19 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been going to Keham Island for over six months and we couldn't be happier - she always has a wonderful time and is always beaming when we pick her up and blowing kisses to the staff as she leaves, and gets excited when we drop her off. We also really love the varied food they get to
eat (that they somehow convince her to try - magic!) and all the nice activities they get up to every day - so many fun seasonal activities. Staff are also highly accommodating of our ever-changing schedule (extremely appreciated as someone who is freelance.) We would definitely recommend it.

Review from Bronlie R (Aunt of Child) published on 16 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Couldn't recommend enough. From day one, the team have been so warm, kind, and genuinely caring. You can really feel that the children's happiness and wellbeing come first in everything they do.


The environment is calm, welcoming, and full of lovely activities that clearly have real thought behind

them. It's been amazing to see how much confidence and independence has grown, and how much joy there is around learning.


Communication has also been fantastic. We're always kept up to date, and the staff are approachable and happy to chat if we ever have questions. It's very refreshing!


Would absolutely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a caring and supportive setting.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.307)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.307) out of 10 for Kelham Island Day Nursery 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Kelham Island Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (23 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 5
  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 3.307 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kelham Island Day Nursery is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 55 number of registered child places is 11. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 11 = 0.182
  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.
