Lovely run wee nursery and fantastic staff, always greet you with a smile. Prefer the private run nurseries as less children and more staff ratio to children. Love the app, always kept updated regularly.

Very happy to leave a review for Gleniffer Nursery, it is a fantastic nursery and all the staff are brilliant, very friendly, professional and always available for any questions/help when needed. I currently have an almost 2-year-old who attends and he absolutely loves it, I have seen him come on so
much since starting earlier this year. My firstborn who is almost 7 now also attended this nursery and she absolutely loved her time there. They keep you updated on everything daily via the app.

My son has attended Glennifer since he was about 6 months old and is now in his last year. He has had a great experience and loves going.
The whole team of staff are so lovely and supportive.
The Nursery was taken over by the new manager a couple of years ago and she has had a vision and transformed
the place completely, along with her amazing team. Not only does my son feel supported but I also feel supported as a mother. Special shout out to another lady too, who looked after my son from the start. I'll be very sad when he leaves to start school.

Glennifer Nursery is fantastic. A lovely wee gem in the area that our children love and are very happy in. All the staff are so friendly, helpful and professional and they all do a great job in caring and nurturing our children. We have seen many positive changes over the past few years. Parents are
kept well informed of all the new and exciting things that are happening in the nursery. Great communication from staff on the daily updates on my children and I feel very involved in all aspects of my children's care. I'm really impressed with just how much this nursery has to offer and the opportunities for parental involvement in various aspects of the children's learning activities. They have a great management team that are so helpful and approachable and they should be very proud of all that Glennifer Nursery has achieved. I'm very happy to send all of my children here as I know it will give them the best start in their education journey.

My daughter attends this nursery and I need to thank them for the time they spend with my daughter learning her things, she makes me so proud every day when she comes home as every day she learns something new, I wouldn't change her nursery as the experience I have seen is outstanding and she loves
going every day, so thank you Glennifer Nursery for everything you do for my daughter.

My youngest son currently attends and my oldest son left for primary school last summer. Both boys love it dearly, as do I.
My children have been and are loved and cared for. They have benefited from a wide range of activities and experiences which adhere to the curriculum for excellence.
Throughout
Covid, the team strived to maintain high standards and managed to avoid any infections for many months and should be praised for this.
The team are currently in a process of improving their already high standards by attending courses and showing an awareness of the current educational climate.
The children are offered a healthy and varied diet and have daily opportunities to play and explore in the outdoor area.
This nursery may be small, it may not have the flashy new equipment that some other nurseries have but this nursery has love, care and nurture and I would 100% recommend this fantastic educational, homely and nurturing establishment.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.142)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.142) out of 10 for Gleniffer 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 6 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 4.875 for Gleniffer Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (66 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.875

  • 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 4.267 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Gleniffer Nursery is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 45 number of registered child places is 9. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 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.
