I'm very happy with the care my children receive whilst at nursery, they really like the staff and are always excited to go (sometimes they don't want to leave ??) and I love the fact I can see what they have been up to on their learning journals, and they provide balance healthy meals and snacks.

I am very happy with the care my child receives at nursery, the staff are always friendly and welcoming.
My son talks about all the staff and enjoys going into the room to learn and play with his friends.
I love being able to see my son's development on Tapestry it gives you an insight into what
he does throughout his day.

It's great to know my children are happy, safe and secure whilst I am at work. My children love going to nursery and always talk about what they have done during their day, which is great to hear! All the staff are welcoming, supportive and friendly which makes me feel at ease.

My child loves coming to the nursery, he has great fun and enjoys his time there! I have previously used the nursery for my two older children and they are flourishing at their school.

I'm very happy with this nursery, my eldest used to go to this nursery and now my youngest has just started here and loves it. She settled very quickly no tantrums or upset just runs in due to all the staff being so lovely. My eldest loved going to this nursery and now my youngest loves going, so one
happy mother. Staff are always happy and welcoming they are just wonderful can't fault them in any way.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.266)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.266) out of 10 for Seashells 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 9 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 4.897 for Seashells Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (98 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.897

  • 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 4.369 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Seashells Nursery is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.2 = 0.469

  • 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.
