I could not wish for a better nursery for both my children to go to, they have thrived and developed so much here. It has been the best start to their education. All the staff are amazing and friendly, they will help and support you with anything you need. Thank you for making my children so happy.

We are very pleased with our choice of nursery. Our child has attended since September 2023, and all the team have been incredibly supportive of his first year and a bit. They have made real efforts to know him, his likes and dislikes, his routine at home, and communicate with us daily about his day
and experiences. The outdoor space is wonderful, and they make full use of it throughout the year. Inside, they always come up with creative themes and ways to develop the children's skills, and the photos they give us daily as updates are great too! My child is a picky eater at home but does well to try lots of different foods at nursery.
I highly recommend Harestock Nursery and the whole team and am very grateful for their support over the past year and a bit.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.550)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.550) out of 10 for Harestock 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 5.000 for Harestock Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (36 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.55 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Harestock Nursery is based on 3 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 = 3.25

    • 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. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.3

  • 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.
