Monkey Puzzle Walton-on-Thames has been wonderful. Our son enjoys his time and I know he has been well cared for. Our son has learned so much since starting Monkey Puzzle and the direction has been amazing, especially during such difficult times.

We are having a really positive experience with Monkey Puzzle Walton. Our daughter loves it there and gets excited when we drop her off in the morning. She is our first child and this is her first nursery, but the team have made us feel really welcome and relaxed, thanks to their great settling in process
and lots of transparency. Hugely friendly service, that feels very personal. Plus our daughter brings home arts and crafts almost every day, so clearly its a very fun and nurturing environment.

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.461)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.461) out of 10 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Walton-on-Thames is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 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 4.896 for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Walton-on-Thames is calculated as follows: ( (43 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.896

  • 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 3.565 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Walton-on-Thames 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 105 number of registered child places is 21. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 21 = 0.19

  • 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.

My name is Annoo and I am the proud mother of a teenage son. I changed my career into early years 19 years ago after the birth of my son. From that moment child development has been a passion and has stayed with me ever since.

In my 16 year successful career in Senior Management and Consultant roles in Early Years Childcare; I have always been driven and committed to provide high quality childcare. I have played an active role in Ofsted inspections and successfully achieved a number of ‘Outstanding’ and ‘Good’ grades for the nurseries. I am very passionate about providing outstanding care and learning opportunities to children in a safe and thriving environment, work closely with families, members of the team, local authorities, early years support teams and the local community. I am currently working towards making Walton-on-Thames a Hygge Accredited Nursery. I have taken my inspiration from the Danish concept of Hygge (successful Scandinavian approach). The Hygge approach aims in creating a greater focus on calmness, joy and simplicity into our environment to improve wellbeing and mindfulness of the children and team. We bring more nature, cosiness and simplicity into the environment and give it a more homely feel. At our nursery, we will look at children taking the lead in their learning and how we can effectively support this by setting up meaningful enhancements and provocations.

I am very pleased and overjoyed to join hands with award winning “Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries” to begin a new chapter towards my dream of having my own nursery. I look forward to bringing my wealth of knowledge, family-oriented values, and experience in making this nursery a huge success and a significant addition to the local community.
