Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It's good to hear you believe our children are well-cared for and that your child enjoys their time at nursery. We are saddened to hear of your concerns though. We do pride ourselves on our communication and make efforts to ensure we are consistent despite any staffing changes. Our food and nutrition are of huge importance to us, and I would like to reassure you there have been no budget cuts to impact this. However, we take your concerns very seriously and our Nursery Manager would be happy to speak to you directly in more detail about what we can do to resolve these. If you would be happy to speak to us directly it would be much appreciated so we can continue improving the service we offer for the families of our community.

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.527) out of 10 for Doodle Do Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 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 4.597 for Doodle Do Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (163 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) + (4 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.597
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 4.93 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Doodle Do Day Nursery is based on 16 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 86 number of registered child places is 17.2. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.2 = 0.93
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.
