My Mother highly recommends Jack in the Box Nursery. My daughter has almost grown up there. Very friendly and approachable staff and management. She still follows manners she has learned from the nursery. Thank you.

My daughter has become so much more confident and outgoing since starting nursery at 11 months old took a long time to settle but all the staff were so helpful and knew how to help her settle, she was an extremely clingy baby. Now she loves nursery and always looks forward to going and seeing the staff
and her friends, the staff are all outstanding.

The baby room staff are extremely caring and helpful. My son settled in very well which was only possible because of the interaction the staff had with him. They observed what his favourite toys were and would mention those toys during drop offs which distracted him and made drop off much easier.

My older child has attended the nursery since she was a baby. We were so happy with the nursery that we decided to send our younger child too, although it is quite far from home. The staff are fantastic, every day I get feedback on my child's day and we discuss any issues such as behaviour to keep continuity
at home and in nursery. My child is cared for well and looks forward to going in every day. I highly recommend this nursery.

We have sent three of our children here over the years. Have always found the nursery to be warm and welcoming. Lots of committed and long term staff (which is a positive reflection in itself). Would highly recommend the nursery to any prospective parents.

Our daughter has been at the nursery since she was 6 months old (she's almost 2 now) and she loves it! We also feel very pleased with the quality of care at JiTB. We both work in education and are very aware of how important a safe and stimulating environment is and the staff at JiTB are amazing!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.853)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.853) out of 10 for Jack in the Box Nursery 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.

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 4.853 for Jack in the Box Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 191 Ratings = 4.853

  • 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 Jack in the Box Nursery 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 78 number of registered child places is 15.6, 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.
