Thank you so much for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear how happy you are with the care your daughter receives at Poppies. Managing allergies is something we take incredibly seriously, and it's wonderful to know she's thriving with our nutritious meals. Our outdoor space is a favourite with the children, so it's heart-warming to hear she enjoys it too. We're especially glad the family engagement events have brought you joy-seeing families come together for events like Fathers' Day play or Carnival Day makes it all so worthwhile. Thank you for being part of our Poppies family!

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.442) out of 10 for Poppies Day Nursery Maidenhead is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 10 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 4.748 for Poppies Day Nursery Maidenhead is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.748
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 4.694 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Poppies Day Nursery Maidenhead is based on 10 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 + 0.1 = 4
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 72 number of registered child places is 14.4. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.694
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.
