It's been an incredible journey for our son since he started attending the nursery. We've seen growth in his language skills, as he's now babbling more and saying some real words, showing a keen interest in books. He's also become more independent with his eating habits.
What's more, the staff has
been exceptionally friendly and cooperative, making us feel like part of a family. We're truly grateful for the nurturing environment and care that the nursery provides.

Reply from Stacey Cordner, Nursery Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery Edgbaston

Thank you for your kind words, we are glad to hear your son has been developing well and that we help him to do that.

Nothing makes me happier and allows me to go to work with peace of mind than seeing my little girl so happy in the morning to go to nursery. The entire staff is definitely doing an excellent job, and I can't thank them enough for the care they provide to my daughter. Keep up the great work!

I couldn't praise all the staff at Banana Moon Nursery enough, they do everything and more for my little boy. They really did get me over my fear of leaving him with strangers. They keep me in the picture about everything they do with him. My son absolutely adores all the staff at Banana Moon so a big
thank you to everyone.

Our daughter attended Banana Moon Edgbaston for two years and has just left to go to primary school. When she first started, she was very anxious and upset about being away from home, and the staff welcomed her so kindly, gave her cuddles and affection which was what she needed, and helped her settle
in so well. She's grown hugely in confidence since attending and has learnt to deal really well with socialising and friendships. This is hugely to her teacher's credit, they've met her where she's at and always kept us well informed as parents about progress or issues and how we could support her at home. Overall, great staff team, really caring with all the children, you can tell they love working there. The setting is good, with different age groups in different rooms, and lots of outdoor space. Kids are encouraged to play outside every day. There's a range of activities every day to encourage learning, and a great varied menu each week for snacks and meals.

Thank you for your kind review this means so much to the entire team. We hope you have all settled well into school life.

The nursery has helped my son to settle in.
He was struggling to learn English, as it's not his first language, and was really distressed because of communication issues.
The nursery helped him along his journey. Now he loves to read, has made a lot of friends and can speak in English with confidence.
We
are really pleased with the outcome and couldn't recommend it more.

A friendly environment for children with kind and active instructors with good management, it is complex that children are eager to go there every day. Unfortunately, we got to know this complex late but in this short time, I express my satisfaction.

Reply from Stacey Cordner, Nursery Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery Edgbaston

Thank you for your kind words, we are glad that the short time you had with us due to your child going to school was a good experience and that you and your child were delighted to come daily.

All round very accommodating, warm and supportive.
My child has been very happy and has progressed very well over the last 2 years and 7 months. My child has a medical condition which has been dealt with by the nursery very appropriately and sensitively.
Great daily feedback and support from all
staff.
Thank you Banana Moon.

Parents evening was a great experience. Staff (as always) were welcoming and joyful. Children were included in the reviews and feedback was all relevant and constructive.
Little one moves into full-time school in September and I could not have chosen a better place or staff to help him through his
pre-school years.
An amazing team!

I can’t rate this nursery highly enough. My little boy loves going every day to see his friends and play in the garden.
The staff are all lovely and clearly dedicated to supporting the development of all the children. My son is constantly surprising me with new skills and words he has learned while
at nursery.

Amazing nursery. Get updates daily through the app and the staff are really friendly. Also, the food the kids are given looks better than I make at home. My daughter is excited to go every day and clearly has a lot of fun. She has a huge grin every time I pick her up.

My son has been attending this nursery since he was 15 months old, the staff were great in helping him settle in. He is starting school this year and we have seen him grow, make friends and become more independent with time owing to the environment provided at the nursery. I like the range of activities
offered.
The nursery provides frequent updates of the daily activities which is easily available to view through the app. The staff are very supportive and we have peace of mind when we are at work as we know our son is well looked after at Banana Moon Nursery.

My son attended the nursery in the preschool group and we were very happy about the environment. When our little daughter reached the age of one we decided to take her to the same nursery and it looks like it was a good decision. She looks extremely happy to go to nursery every day and has a big smile
when we pick her up which is such a relief.

Very good nursery and great staff with good communication with children, since my son started going to Banana Moon Day Nursery he has really been developing in his speech and behaviour and his confidence as well.
This nursery really helped him with socialising skills and educational activities and
I am glad that my son is in this nursery.

Nice breakfast morning for Father’s Day. Welcoming visit and the staff were chatty to make us feel welcome. Was nice to see my child play and have breakfast around other children and the nursery staff interacting with my child on things he likes. Lots of visual stimulation and activities for my child
to keep himself occupied. The garden is a plus on nice days which today is, so they are going in the garden later which my child loves.

Very good nursery and all the staff have been very kind since my son started going there, even knowing that he was struggling with the language, and also presenting some behaviour problems because of that.
He seems to like the food, staff, and activities, enters and leaves the nursery with a big smile,
every day.

My child has had a wonderful 7 months at Banana Moon. She settled in just 3 weeks and is very close with the staff. She loves going to nursery and has really been developing at a tremendous speed, her speech has come on so fast and her confidence has increased so much. We are just happy to see that
our daughter is happy and looks forward to her nursery days. Thank you, everyone, especially to the 3 members of staff in particular who are always warm and welcoming.

My son has been at the nursery now for six months and loves it. The staff all work so hard to keep him well looked after, entertained and happy. We get regular updates on what he’s up to and can see how all the activities help his development. As a first-time mom, I was worried about choosing the right
nursery but couldn’t be happier with my choice.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.911)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.911) out of 10 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Edgbaston 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 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.911 for Banana Moon Day Nursery Edgbaston is calculated as follows: ( (216 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.911

  • 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 Banana Moon Day Nursery Edgbaston is based on 20 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 20 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.
