I wish I had full visibility of their policies on screens and video games. The upside of Little Gems is the in room staff are very friendly and kind.
Reply from Audrey McCracken, Nursery Director at Little Gems Private Day Nursery
We apologise for any miscommunication regarding our screen time policies. All of our policies are provided to our parents on induction but we are happy to address any concerns regarding these policies with parents. Television time is not a regular part of our timetable in the nurseries and is used for downtime to help give our staff time to tidy and allow for breaks – this TV time would never go on as long as an hour. Thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback, as it helps us continually improve our services and better meet the expectations of our parents and children.

My older son has also attended Little Gems after-school and loved it. He was picked up from school (always on time) and spent the afternoons having great fun with friends, doing homework or activities, or just relaxing! It really was a home from home.
We would highly recommend Little Gems to anyone!

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.865) out of 10 for Little Gems Private Day 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 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 Little Gems Private Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (267 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 297 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Gems Private Day Nursery is based on 24 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 103 number of registered child places is 20.6, which has been reached with 24 Positive reviews. Points = 1
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.
