I pulled my child out of this nursery after a month. I didn't feel that the care was given to individual children's needs and frankly that the place needed a good clean. Lots of very young junior staff. Felt the children were not the priority.

Reply from Maureen Crandles, Director at Melville Street Nursery

We have a designated cleaning company who are very thorough. We also have a onsite maintenance manager. The staff are a committed professional team of mixed ages who are extremely fond of their key children. We totally refute the comments in this review. The reviewer refused to meet with us to discuss concerns and CCTV does not verify the comments.

Current Review Score: 1.3 (1.250)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 1.3 (1.250) out of 10 for Melville Street Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 1.3 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 0.0 out of 5 from 0 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 1.250 for Melville Street Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (10 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 1.25

  • 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 0 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Melville Street Nursery is based on 0 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) =

    • 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. 0 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0

  • 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.
