Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Blue Kangaroo Nursery in August, and it has truly been one of the best decisions I've made for her. She absolutely loves going every day! The nursery staff are wonderful, very polite, caring, and always happy to help. Even the management team is approachable and responsive.
Since
this is my first child, I often have many questions about different things, and the staff always take the time to explain everything clearly and make me feel supported. They really do go above and beyond to make parents feel comfortable.
One small suggestion would be to include a bit more detail on the nursery app, especially about what the children eat each day. At the moment, meal details are usually shared in person, so it would be great if that could also be added to the app.
Other than that, I honestly couldn't be happier. It's a brilliant nursery with a warm, friendly atmosphere, and I can see how much my daughter is thriving there.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.271)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.271) out of 10 for Blue Kangaroo Happy Nursery Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 3 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 4.833 for Blue Kangaroo Happy Nursery Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (30 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.833
  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 3.438 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Blue Kangaroo Happy Nursery Ltd is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.188
  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: Deputy Manager Joined: 2021

Hi, I am Chloe, Deputy Manager at Blue Kangaroo Nursery.
For the past 4 years, I have loved working in early childhood education.
Watching children grow from their first days in the baby room to confident pre-schoolers is pure magic. I treasure the bonds I share with our children, families and team. Every day, I work to create spaces that spark curiosity, laughter and learning.
Because children aren’t just part of what we do, “ They’re the reason we do it”
