I feel content when he is here as the staff are amazing and really pay attention to the little things about him. The updates and photos are really good and I can
I would recommend this nursery to anyone, the facilities are great (especially the garden). The food is varied and healthy, and the staff care so well for the children.

Thank you for your review and the others you also posted on several other sites which were removed! We are rather shocked that you have given us one star in several categories, as all of our previous reviews from parents past and present have been very positive. Before joining Munchkins every parent signs a contract which states that there is a six week notice period, which you also signed, it is not written in small print, but bold and obvious. In your email trail re your daughter's sickness, you state that you do not blame the nursery for this and this is to be expected due to children getting bugs and because of Covid many children have not built up their immune systems. On one occasion your little one had gastroenteritis which no other child had, therefore this was not picked up at nursery. You also stated in your emails that our team were amazing and gave exceptional care to your little one, therefore we are surprised at the above review. We wish you and your family all the best.

Thank you Sarah for your review. Lockdown was such an unprecidented time, but we made sure that on their return our Munchkins felt happy, safe and secure in familiar surroundings, with very little change to their routine, whilst making sure that our parents were confident with all the procedures we put in place.

My daughter loves it here, she is so happy and has learnt so much more than I thought she could at her age. But this learning happens through the huge amount of playing they do.
The activities are forever changing and keep the kids interested. The outside area is great for all weather and I know my daughter is safe.
One of her favourite things is when the nursery manager plays his guitar and sings with the children.
Absolutely amazing nursery and I will be sad when my daughter graduates in the summer!
Reply from Liz Makins, Owner at Munchkins Nursery & Pre-School Somerset Rd
Hello Keely, we will also be very sad to see your Munchkin leave in the summer, but we hope that we have given her a wonderful early years experience and we have enabled her to have developed the skills to prepare her for her next adventure.

The feel of the setting and ethos of bringing the outside in is appealing, as well
All exploratory play is relevant to the time of year and fitting to the overall feel of the nursery and the daily photo journal is a great way for me to check-in and continue the learning at home.
Reply from Liz Makins, Owner at Munchkins Nursery & Pre-School Somerset Rd
Thank you, Anouska, for your wonderful feedback. We are so glad that you and your Munchkin love the activities we provide for our outdoor learning.

There are lots for the children to do, with regular arts and crafts coming home with my child. A large outdoor area and the nursery has a very high level in respect to the food it provides to the children.
I am very happy with the nursery and looking forward for my child to attend a second day per week!

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.881) out of 10 for Munchkins Nursery & Pre-School Somerset Rd 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.981 for Munchkins Nursery & Pre-School Somerset Rd is calculated as follows: ( (106 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.981
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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Munchkins Nursery & Pre-School Somerset Rd is based on 9 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 = 3.9
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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 9 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.
