My review experience was good, with no complaints. My daughter's key worker was good with explaining all areas and answered all questions given. It will be sad not visiting Alphabet House as often when my daughter moves up to school.

I love Alphabet House Day Nursery. Ever since my child started, I have seen his behaviour, social behaviour and confidence improve greatly. The staff are friendly, polite and extremely hard working. I can't commend them enough. My child always comes home happy and fulfilled and I can't wait for my youngest
to start.

My daughter always has a good day at day nursery and plays so much she is tired out by the time she gets home. The variety of her meals sounds lovely and appetising.

The service is brilliant. I am happy with the fact that my son enjoys being at school. It did not take long for him to settle. He is also learning a lot and gaining more.

I am very pleased with the high standard of this nursery, its commitment to the development of the child. I feel that my son is excelling at this nursery, and the availability of extra curricular activities is good too.
The menus are great and full of nutritious food, the facilities are of a good
standard with lots of toys/equipment, etc. to keep my child stimulated.
The staff are very friendly and approachable, and I am fully confident with my son being in their care.
At a recent parents evening I was delighted to hear that with the help of his key person, my son is reaching his targets easily and is now ready for his next step in September to school.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.490)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.490) out of 10 for Kindred White Post Nursery and Pre-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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 15 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 4.865 for Kindred White Post Nursery and Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.865

  • 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 4.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred White Post Nursery and Pre-school is based on 15 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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.625

  • 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.
