Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has got on so well at playtime day care. All the staff have been very patient and caring towards him when he turns up upset because he doesn't want to leave me. He now doesn't get upset and has the best time. They always take time out to tell me how his day has been and only a phone call
away if I need to contact them with any questions. From being very scared about sending my child to any nursery to seeing him shine and come out of his shell and so happy learning and playing. Thank you all at playtime daycare!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sons attend this nursery and they absolutely enjoy going. They are learning so much, and I've noticed a big positive change in them, especially how much calmer they are at home. The staff are wonderful-caring, patient, and very attentive to my children's needs. I feel confident and happy with how
the team looks after them every day. I would highly recommend this nursery to other parents.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.509)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.509) out of 10 for Playtime Daycare Dagenham 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 4 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 Playtime Daycare Dagenham is calculated as follows: ( (45 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 48 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 3.592 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Playtime Daycare Dagenham is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 92 number of registered child places is 18.4. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.4 = 0.217
  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.
