The nursery staff are all very friendly, helpful and great with the children. My child has been attending for the last year and there has been no problems at all. They've gained so much confidence and learnt so much also. The resources the nursery have are fantastic and they take the children to the
park/town occasionally. They cater towards the child's interests. There hasn't been a day where my child has not wanted to go and it's been a fantastic journey with Noah's Ark.

My son tried two different nurseries before this one. But he settled at Noah’s Ark. Staff are very friendly and responsive. Room arrangement and design of building is good. Pick up and drop off space is good.

My daughter has been at this nursery for a while and today is her last day. They have been so supportive through her ASD, for her and myself. My daughter is always so happy to go and is banging one the door to get in! Her speech and social skills have came on amazing here. This nursery has been amazing
and I am so sad to see my daughter leave.

Noah's Ark Nursery is amazing! I was a very anxious mummy about my little boy starting nursery, as I had tried one and had a bad experience so it made me even more anxious as my son going, as he had only ever really been with myself or his nanna and grandpa. He was very upset when he first started the
settling-in sessions but they made him feel safe and they engaged with him with the things he likes to do!
The staff are so kind, understanding, friendly and professional and I can say that they have made me also feel relaxed and reassured that he is safe and well cared for while he spends his time there!

Noah’s Ark has been such a fantastic nursery for our daughter. They are amazing at communicating, sharing photos and progression with parents, and giving all the children opportunities to develop. Our daughter completes educational activities that are also fun. She returns home with beautiful drawings
and stories about her day, that include dressing up and playing outside. She has made great progress and she only leaves with a smile on her face. Thank you to the whole Noah’s Ark team and a special shout out and thanks to her key workers in the Ocean Room!

My daughter has loved her time at this nursery. She always comes out really happy after a fun filled day. The staff are fantastic with the children. The rooms are spacious with plenty of toys. They have great preschool educational activities. My child has thrived here. I highly recommend this nursery.

We have used this nursery for the last 5 years with our 3 youngest children.
The staff are absolutely fantastic nothing is EVER too much trouble for them. My daughter was selective mute when she first started there and within 6 months of her being with her key worker she was chatting away like there
was never an issue.
All 3 of our kids have always loved going there and always have a smile on their faces.
We cannot thank the staff enough for the best possible start our kids could ever have had to their school life.

Noah's Ark nursery is by far the best nursery I have come across since moving to Thanet - we have tried several. I have absolutely no doubt in recommending this nursery to any new parent. The staff are in the main parents themselves, have a caring attitude and a very structured system which works well.
The staff turnover is minimal which is always a good sign of a well managed team. Both my son's have attended - one of which was very anxious about being left, the staff made this transition as simple as possible and worked with me to ensure he settled in well. Don't be fooled by fancy buildings with hanging baskets, this is a no frills nursery that delivers first class childcare with no smoke and mirrors.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.394)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.394) out of 10 for Noah's Ark Nursery School 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 8 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 4.927 for Noah's Ark Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (89 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.927

  • 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 4.467 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Noah's Ark Nursery School is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.667

  • 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.
