Carisbrook is a very good place for my child. He enjoys being there and has lots of fun. We are happy for him to be there. He comes home clean, happy and looks forward to the next day. It is definitely a good and safe environment for children to both learn and have fun.

My daughter is always excited to come to nursery and I've noticed her speech is clearer and when I come to pick her up she is neat and I am given a review of what has happened during the day. The nursery is very clean and the staff are lovely. The nursery is amazing and I know my daughter is in good
hands.

Prior to my child joining Carisbrook Nursery, the manager had a meeting with me and explored what Carisbrook is all about. This made me feel valued and listened to as the manager was able to answer any questions I had.
Daily handover of how my son is doing ie meals eaten, activities, nappy change and
sleeping pattern informed. My son has blossomed since starting. He is now able to say words, make sentences which he hadn't done before and was a big concern for me and health visitors

I think this nursery is extremely on point. The way in which the children learn and grow together is absolutely amazing. The staff take care and look after each of the kids as if they were theirs and this is absolutely phenomenal. My little brother enjoys coming here every morning so this makes the
whole family happy about the place.

My daughter does 1 day a week and loves being there. The staff are all lovely and welcoming. Everyone in the baby/toddler department is very smiley and amazing with my daughter. I do feel security could be better eg. who picks up a child. The nursery is wonderful, I couldn't of picked a better nursery.

Very accommodating and outstanding service provided by Carisbrook Nursery, and the entire staff. The staff, are very flexible and caring. Every staff member that has worked with my son for the past 3 years made an effort to work, learn and adapt to my son's needs (he has limited communication and mobility).
Due to this conducive environment, my son has blossomed and has greatly improved in all his weak areas. He has greatly improved due to the hard work and personalised learning curriculum provided by Carisbrook. Would highly recommend to every parent, even for parents with children with special needs.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.924)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.924) out of 10 for WMB Carisbrook Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.968 for WMB Carisbrook Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (152 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.968

  • 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 4.956 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for WMB Carisbrook Day Nursery is based on 13 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 68 number of registered child places is 13.6. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.6 = 0.956

  • 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.
