My twenty-one-month-old boy has a milk protein intolerance and they have been wonderful about it. He loves the range of activities and he eats better than I do. I love that they have men as well as women working with the kids, to give a range of role models. My son loves a particular playworker in his
room. He just seems to totally get my son. I love that he mixes with a range of children at different ages, but still does age-appropriate activities and they let him get messy, stimulating his creative side without trashing my house. They do so much. Just did a Halloween dress up and did black history before this. Great.

The staff have been wonderful with my son. They are happy to see him in the morning, ask about his night, give a report about his day when I collect. The encourage him to try new things (eg feeding himself, walking) and are concerned when he gets hurt. He seems happy when I leave him in the morning
and is playing contentedly in the afternoon.

I really like the nursery. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and my son loves it here. My child started this nursery when he was around 6 to 7 months and he loved it so I brought him back. I would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

My daughter has not long been at the nursery but the ladies in the baby room have been fantastic and helped settle her very well. She is always happy when leaving the nursery and is always tired like she has had a very busy day.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.554)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.554) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Mount Carmel Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.661 for Bright Horizons Mount Carmel Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.661

  • b) 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 4.893 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Mount Carmel Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.8 = 0.893

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
