Reply from Cheryl Brown, Director at Brown Bears Nursery - Palmers Green
We have a fantastic nursery that has been operating for over 10 years and this is a review from a parent whose children had only been in our setting for a total of 9 hours - 2 settling in sessions totalling 4 hours and 5 hours without their parent. We pride ourselves in the parent partnership by having an open-door policy, informing parents of what goes on the nursery before they start and termly meetings. We use an app as a way for parents to have an insight of the care that children have on a daily basis. As stated in the EYFS (2024) is it not a requirement for staff to do as many observations on activities as there used to be as we are focusing more on the interaction between staff and children. When parents start, we ask that parents fill out an All About Me and provide as much information about their children as possible and parents are invited into the room in which their children are settling into across 3 days and provide staff with more information about their child/ren. We ask that parents label their child/ren clothing and shoes especially if they are twins and wear identical shoes/clothing. We always work within ratio or over ratio, we also have a lone working policy for when staff would have to leave the room for a brief period time such as nappy changes, collecting resources and toilet breaks. Each room has CCTV cameras as well as cameras in both of our gardens. Children who attend Brown Bears Nursery are loved unconditionally and always comforted especially when they are upset. Ratio as of September 2023 is 1:5 not 1:4 for 2–3-year-olds. We have a robust Safeguarding policy which we adhere to and is emailed to all parents at application stage as well as having access to it in the office. We have a fantastic diverse menu which is changed twice year depending on the season. We have also invested heavily in our ICT equipment by investing in a £5000 large interactive board which both children and parents adore. Key persons are assigned to children once they have established a strong bond with a member of staff which does not happen during their settling period, as this would more than likely be their first experience being away from their parents. Please note that at Brown Bears Nursery we do not tolerate any form of abuse from parents to any member of staff, especially those that have been in the setting for a total of only 9 hours!

The Review Score of 7.5 (7.529) out of 10 for Brown Bears Nursery - Palmers Green is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 3.979 for Brown Bears Nursery - Palmers Green is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 3.979
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 3.55 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brown Bears Nursery - Palmers Green is based on 3 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 = 3.25
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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.3
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.
