Great staff, great environment! My daughter loves it! They're all so understanding They genuinely care about the children. My daughter has come along so far since being there. She's been there almost a year now and never wants to leave at home time.

My daughter recently left Clarence House Barns, Ely having been a full-time attendee for over a year. The staff have always ensured she is well, happy and well-fed. They are sensitive to her needs when in need of an extra cuddle. tThe new staff have injected new life, enthusiasm, and order to the nursery
and the weekly updates are great. My daughter has now started school but I would not hesitate to use the nursery's services in school holidays if need be.

My son has been attending this nursery since he was 13 months old. He loves it and we are extremely happy with the facilities and care provided. It is a very warm and inviting place and the staff are well-trained, enthusiastic and caring. The activities are stimulating and varied. The garden is large
and well equipped and the children are encouraged to go outside regularly. The staff are always thinking of new ways to engage the children, for example exploring colours with colour boxes and providing chattersacks for use at home. I am confident that my child is well looked after and, most importantly, happy when he is there and that there will always be support and cuddles when he needs them. Compared to other nurseries it is also exceptionally good value for money and offers flexible sessions which is incredibly helpful to working parents. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to others.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.895)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.895) out of 10 for Clarence House Ely 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.895 for Clarence House Ely is calculated as follows: ( (180 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 200 Ratings = 4.895

  • 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 Clarence House Ely is based on 17 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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 17 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.
