So glad I enrolled my baby in the nursery. I had heard good things and it’s lived up to the reputation completely. As a new mum I was worried about leaving my baby with strangers, but after meeting all the lovely staff as I was completely at ease about my baby going there. I love being able to see pictures
of the things she’s been up to.
Wouldn’t want her at any other form of childcare.

Playdays have been amazing with my daughter. I couldn’t recommend them anymore. Anyone that asks about this nursery like family and friends, I tell them how amazing it is. Staff are so friendly and very caring. I feel my daughter is always looked after and very safe.

Our family are extremely happy with the service provided by your nursery. In the short time he has been with you, he has grown in confidence and always has such a lovely time. We particularly love how he is encouraged to be creative and participate in a variety of activities. We were recommended your
nursery by a family friend, and we are so grateful for the recommendation. The staff are so friendly and polite and the communication is great. As full time working parents, it’s such a weight off our shoulders knowing our son is in kind hands, having a wonderful time and learning lots too. Thank you to all the staff at Playdays’, you’re all fantastic.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.848)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.848) out of 10 for Playdays Nursery Farnborough 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 6 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 4.915 for Playdays Nursery Farnborough is calculated as follows: ( (65 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.915

  • 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 3.933 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Playdays Nursery Farnborough is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.333

  • 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.
