Staff are lovely and take a genuine interest in the children. They seem to do lots of different activities with them. My son certainly learns a lot at the nursery. Perhaps more time could be spent outside in the garden when the weather permits.

Our toddler started at the nursery when she was 11 months old and since then we have been very happy with the care she has been given.
All the staff we have met are really lovely and good and we feel reassure that she is in good hands.

The Corner House Day Nursery has been a 'home away from home' for both our children. Knowing our children are safe, happy and achieving is of great importance to us, and we are very confident that this is the case to us, and we are very confident that this is the case at Corner House Day Nursery.
Our
children are known by all the staff, not just the key worker. Upon arrival each day it is so reassuring to experience such a welcoming environment. The staff are actively engaged in delivering a varied programme of activities each day. There are a range of cultural experiences celebrated and our children are encouraged to be responsible citizens. The manager is exceptional - always putting the needs of the children first!

Corner House is to me personally the best place for my child to be at. Staff are fantastic, attending to his needs so carefullt. Hew always has something nice to say about the teachers when he comes home. What impresses me the most is the fact that they are always ready to go the extra mile to support
with his development (customising activities and rewards to meet certain expectations).
He feels loved by the teachers and tells us different staff are his best friends!! When he has difficulties due to a new sibling in the family, he was being offered extra care and support to help go through this chapter. On a day off he will ask to go to nursery! Says it all to us!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.569)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.569) out of 10 for Thrive Teviot House Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.788 for Thrive Teviot House Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.788

  • 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 4.781 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Thrive Teviot House Nursery is based on 10 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 64 number of registered child places is 12.8. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.8 = 0.781

  • 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.
