My child has been in the nursery for the last three months and she enjoyed every minute in the nursery. The staff are all very friendly, professional and caring. My daughter is a fussy eater but the staff makes sure that she eats something. Both the staff and facilities are exceptional. I would highly
recommend this nursery.

I have been sending my son to this nursery for almost 2 years now and his improvement is unbelievable. He was a lockdown baby so used to be very shy and scared of people he didn't know. Now his confidence has grown so much that sometimes I am shocked. The teachers at the nursery played a big part in
this. I love how he loves coming to nursery. The staff has always been super helpful and welcoming and never ever had a problem with them. They are all absolutely amazing.

First of all, thanks to everyone. I am very grateful for my child who got a very nice nursery. All are very gentle in the nursery. My child is learning lots of things. He has improved very well now. Now he can understand things and do things by himself.

I have a food experience in nursery. My son enjoys going to nursery. All staff are very helpful and supportive. They always help us, as my first language is my son learns so many new things and learns his language.

Reply from Divya Vaghela, Owner at Christchurch Kindergarten @ Queensbury Children's Nursery

English as an additional language is supported by visual aids. Children pick up the English language very quickly.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.994)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.994) out of 10 for Christchurch Kindergarten @ Queensbury Children's 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.994 for Christchurch Kindergarten @ Queensbury Children's Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.994

  • 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 Christchurch Kindergarten @ Queensbury Children's Nursery is based on 15 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 15 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.
