The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Little Cherubs Nursery & Preschool - Shortlands is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.891 for Little Cherubs Nursery & Preschool - Shortlands is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.891
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 Little Cherubs Nursery & Preschool - Shortlands is based on 16 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 46 number of registered child places is 9.2, which has been reached with 16 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.

Job Title: Area Manager
Joined: 2000
I have worked in the childcare industry for 23 years, having started my career at a preschool nursery as an assistant. I joined Little Cherubs back in 2000 at the Sydenham nursery and during my time there achieved my Level 3 qualification in childcare. Over the past 20 years I have steadily worked my way up to Manager at the Shortlands nursery since 2004 and now am the Area manager of both nurseries.
I love developing the children’s understanding of their world by using role-playing scenarios such as: re-enacting tea parties for the Royal wedding, taking singing sessions and cooking activities and making an inclusive environment in which all children are able to participate.
My career highlight has to be attaining the Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ firstly at Shortlands in 2017 & then followed by Sydenham in 2018. The delivery of childcare has changed so much in the last 21 years and I believe that Little Cherubs has a good balance between providing first-class‘ family care’ and quality learning opportunities for children in order to develop the skills necessary to move on to the next phase of their learning.
