Our son started at Brown Bears just after he turned 1. Communication with one member of staff in particular was excellent and she quickly responded to any query I had. The staff were very kind in helping to settle my son in and you are kept updated in an app on what they are eating/sleep patterns etc.
The premises are clean and tidy and there seems to be a good range of activities for the children, who are happy and contented. Overall a friendly and welcoming nursery, that I would recommend.

My daughter has been at Brown Bears for a year and thoroughly enjoys her time there. She is always happy to walk through the door and the staff are extremely friendly and supportive. The progress she has made and her love for learning has been great. We really value the level of communication and the
approachability of staff. Keep up the good work!

Brown Bears Nursery is an outstanding nursery with staff that take their time to care and nurture your child. Friendly and very informative aswell as compassionate towards each individual child’s needs. My child has excelled since attending the nursery.

We couldn’t be more happier with Brown Bears Nursery - Green Lanes. The genuine care and nurturing they give our girls is incredible. Since enrolling our youngest daughter we have seen her skills, understanding and behaviour improve significantly and our older daughter (a former student) is always complimented
on her manners and intelligence which we wholeheartedly believe is due to the help we have had from the Brown Bears team in her early development.

We love Brown Bears and recommend it highly. Our child has been there for 2.5 years and we have been happy throughout. Other parents we speak to, share these views and have the highest praise for the nursery. Children identify strongly with staff and are nurtured and developed outstandingly. The nursery
is reliable, but also very flexible.

Our toddler has been attending Brown Bears for the past two months. We have been really happy so far, the staff are caring and clearly enjoy their jobs. Our child has quickly developed a relationship with her key worker and is comforted by her. The baby room is large, but there are not many babies in
there so there's plenty of space for them to toddle about. The food seems to be varied and the babies all sit and eat together around a table. Communication is via an app and email and that works well. The outside space is small, but there are trips out to the local parks etc. Would recommend Brown Bears, seems to be more value for money than other local nurseries.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.684)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.684) out of 10 for Brown Bears Nursery - Green Lanes is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 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 4.833 for Brown Bears Nursery - Green Lanes is calculated as follows: ( (40 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.833

  • 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 3.851 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Brown Bears Nursery - Green Lanes 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.476

  • 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.
