My daughter has been with Hilltops Nursery for nearly 2 years and was struggling with her speech before starting there, she's now absolutely thriving. I couldn't be happier and they've helped her a lot, definitely recommend.

A great little set-up and a fantastic nursery. The children have always had plenty of choice of things to make, do or play with and more is always available to ensure each child is included, the outdoor space is equally as good as the indoor space and the children are regularly encouraged to do activities
outdoors.
The staff are a real credit to the nursery and make it a comfortable and inviting place for the children, even those who are a little less willing! Each child is treated with kindness and respect, and so are the parents.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone!

A well supplied little nursery, with a lovely little outside garden area, safe away from any roads and very close to a public park. The team are great. My child has attended this nursery for over 2 years. The overall experience has been very positive.

Really happy with how this nursery is run. Having sent both my children to this nursery; I am confident that my child is left in a safe fun environment where they are able to be safe and comfy. All staff are easily approachable and nothing is ever too much for them. Staff keep me informed of how my
child's day has been on pick up. The nursery is full of resources that aid in my child's development.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.122)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.122) out of 10 for Hilltop 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 4 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 4.978 for Hilltop Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 45 Ratings = 4.978

  • 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 4.144 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hilltop Nursery is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 26 number of registered child places is 5.2. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.2 = 0.769

  • 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.
