Removed our daughter after 3 months. Would have left sooner but had to give 6 weeks' paid notice. Not happy with the management/owner team. Very aggressive. Not for us. We have moved our child to another setting, where we sent our eldest for 3 years without issue. The new setting is slightly further
away but happy to drive for a happier experience.

After many positive reviews from people within our family, we are disheartened to read this. We are sorry we were unable to accommodate your views on our policies and procedures surrounding the circumstance that lead to you withdrawing your child from our setting. However, as per our conversations with you, these policies and procedures are in place to ensure we offer a safe environment for all the staff and children within our care.
We wish you all the best for the future and hope your little one enjoys the new setting!

My daughter absolutely loves coming into nursery, she always has a smile on her face and the staff are very well-tuned into her likes and dislikes. The activities are wonderful and you can see how much fun they are having every day. It has an amazing homely feel and all the staff are extremely caring
and passionate. I couldn't rate this nursery more highly. I'm so glad my daughter has this experience setting her up for her school life later on.

We started our son at Dawneys when he was 3 years old just before his baby brother arrived. I was anxious about nursery due to covid and not being able to enter the setting however the staff put my mind at ease with regular updates and the use of the watch camera. Whenever I call the staff are wonderful
and our son seems to really enjoy the activities set up. The ladies in his class are always so friendly.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.865)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.865) out of 10 for Dawny's Nursery & Pre-School 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.893 for Dawny's Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.893

  • 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 4.972 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Dawny's Nursery & Pre-School is based on 14 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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.972

  • 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.
