I cannot be happier with Rainbow Day Nursery West Wickham. My little boy (2) has been attending for two weeks and absolutely loves it.


We had a rather unpleasant experience at another nursery, so I was quite nervous. But from day one, my son has been enjoying his time there and making new friends.

We had no tears. None.


The staff are wonderful and very supportive. I love all the natural toys and objects and imaginative activities they put together for the children. I especially love the outdoor space and curiosity approach and how confident my son seems within the setting.


I’m absolutely thrilled that my son is happy and I highly recommend Rainbow Day Nursery.

Our daughter was 11 months when she started nursery. The open days and settling in days were amazing. Considering she has had a sheltered year and hasn’t seen too many people on a regular basis, this was an amazing way to help her adjust. All the staff have been fantastic and reassured us along the
way.


Every week we are updated by the ParentZone app with new creative activities. Making bath bombs, finger painting and so on. Some weeks are themed with festivities such as fireworks night! The food is healthy and tasty. Again they update us on the app about food etc.


The care is very individual for each baby and she has created strong bonds with the team.


Evey one has been fantastic. Thanks team!!

My daughter started at this nursery a month ago. She absolutely loves it! Rainbow Nursery is caring, nurturing and fun! My daughter goes in exciting and happy and comes out smiling. The staff are lovely and friendly, the nursery is so clean, the food is fantastic to the point where my daughter asks
for seconds and she has a small appetite!
I would highly recommend this nursery, I’m so glad I found them.

Rainbow Day Nursery West Wickham is brilliant. My husband and I have been so impressed with the care and kindness the nursery has shown our child. The communication is fabulous, I always have multiple updates throughout the day and beautiful photos at the end of the day. The staff create a magical learning
environment where my child has gone from strength to strength. We can't thank or recommend West Wickham Nursery enough.

Lovely nursery and set up, staff are brilliant, amazing activities.
I love all the photos I get of her playing and having fun.
My girl has loved nursery and all of the food (she’s not fussy!) and loves exploring everything they have to offer there. It’s a new nursery in the chain and she went to
a previous Rainbow Nursery and loved that too, very happy with it all! Well done everyone.

I can’t recommend West Wickham Rainbow Day Nursery enough. From beginning at settling in days to now with my daughter attending 3 days a week the communication has been excellent, keeping me updated on what she’s been up to each day. My daughter started as a nervous child but has come on leaps and bounds
since being there, I can see a huge improvement. They have a large variety of things to keep them busy and entertained.

We were very apprehensive at first about finding the right nursery to suit our child’s individual needs and personality. So far we have found the team welcoming, professional and attentive to all children. There is a fantastic range of freshly prepared meals on offer along with a very creative variety
of learning and play. We have felt so warmly welcomed and it is a breath of fresh air knowing our daughter loves to visit every day. Thank you Rainbows!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.450)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.450) out of 10 for Rainbow Day Nursery West Wickham 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 9 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 4.907 for Rainbow Day Nursery West Wickham is calculated as follows: ( (98 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.907

  • 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 4.543 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Rainbow Day Nursery West Wickham 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 70 number of registered child places is 14. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 14 = 0.643

  • 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.
