We are always excited to see your children every morning, as they develop they have become more assertive and independent. We look forward to another two years with them before they go to school. You are doing a beautiful job in raising them and we know they will make you proud as they achieve all the accomplishments that life has to offer. Thank you for choosing Bluebells.

It must have been hard leaving your son here with us as English was not his first language, we learnt new words and shared them with him, he is so kind and thoughtful. Our aim is to ensure that children here all receive the home-from-home environment to make them feel secure. Your son is always smiling and happy to be heard. We adore him. Thank you for choosing Bluebells.

Three of your four children have been with us, and each of them has been unique in their own way. Each has a depth of character and is a total delight to care for. You are an outstanding parent, and we wish your youngest son every success in his school life. Thank you so much for choosing Bluebells.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.822) out of 10 for Bluebells Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.822 for Bluebells Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (228 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.822
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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bluebells Day Nursery is based on 23 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1
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.
