My child started Hamis Daycare when she was 10 months old and couldn't have chosen a better nursery! They were aware of how nervous I was with a clingy child who could not cope in crowds and put a plan in place to ease her in gradually. Since then I have never looked back! The staff were so supportive
and tried quite a bit of 1-2-1 which made a significant difference, they are just so caring and attentive. They ensure I have full detailed feedback of the day. They have amazing activities and the kids thoroughly enjoy it. My child looks forward to going to nursery and this brings contentment to parents. 2.5 years later my child has turned a new leaf and can speak fairly clearly, and is able to cope independently in various situations. I can't thank the Hamis and the nursery enough for all the support and help we have had, it is practically like a first home for my little one and I love how the nursery has a home feeling to it so kids feel reassured- she doesn't want to leave some days!

It's been a really good experience. My daughter enjoys preschool very much. Staff go above and beyond to ensure the children make the most of their time with learning through play. She has forged good relationships with all staff and her peers too. She enjoys coming to preschool every day.

Hamis Daycare have gone above and beyond for my child. He has settled in so well and even on his ‘bad days’ I don’t feel overwhelmed or anxious, as I know he’s in the best of care.
The staff at Hamis regularly update me on his progress and the activities they undertake, as well as how these meet the
EYFS standards.
They ensure he has eaten well, is clean, inform me of any incidents that have taken place and have called whenever there has been a concern.
They have excellent communication with parents and are very accessible through the app, so it is a lot easier to raise any concerns or queries which are always answered promptly.
I honestly feel like I am dropping him off at a family member's house as opposed to a daycare. I will forever be grateful to the staff at Hamis and can’t wait to see how much more my child progresses during his years at the nursery.
Could not recommend Hamis enough, especially to those mums that will be returning to work after maternity.

Whilst looking for a nursery Hamis Daycare really stood out, a definite home away from home, the kind caring nature of all the staff, the level of interaction with the children, the delicious meals, the outings and the day trips were always great and well organised. My son always enjoyed going to nursery
and made some lovely friends. Would definitely recommend Hamis to any parent looking for daycare, they always really do go above and beyond.

What a wonderful setting! My child has thoroughly enjoyed his time at Hamis Daycare. Fantastic staff who show genuine care and affection. His progress and development have been incredible to witness. So sad his journey at Hamis has ended. Would highly recommend it to all!

Hamis Daycare really are a home away from home for my little one!
The care for the children is very visible as they have their needs and best interests at heart which is at the forefront of what they do. The staff are always very helpful, informative and responsive and the manager is always welcoming.
My
son is in the baby's room and you can really see his progression on a daily basis with his motor skills, confidence and social skills! His key worker really knows my child and I am always appreciative of the encouragement they bring towards his development!
There's always something new and exciting happening at Hamis Daycare which shows they are passionate in what they do! Which is assuring for any parent.

My daughters have been at Hamis for over a year. They are very happy and love going to nursery. They have come on in leaps and bounds over the year and are now school-ready. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The manager is very accommodating and communication via email is excellent. Thank you
to all the staff for all your help and support.

Hamis Daycare & Preschool have gone above and beyond to settle my niece. I often pick up and drop off and can see how much she enjoys it. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, feeding back to us about her day and always positive. It's a large setting with plenty of space which is utilised well!
Always something exciting to do on the day. At this point I think I want to attend! Thank you to the team for all you do.

This nursery is a home away from home for my little one and the staff are family to him. The work, care, and dedication they put in is noticeable every day. He comes back happy, energetic and full of new knowledge. My son wants to come to nursery on days off, this shows me that he really does enjoy
nursery.
This review is as much a sincere thank you to the wonderful staff who show up every day for my son as it is an encouragement for new parents who are yet uncertain about choosing to be reassured that their little ones will be much loved here.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.844)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.844) out of 10 for Hamis Daycare & Preschool 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 4.9 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 4.944 for Hamis Daycare & Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (102 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.944

  • 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 Hamis Daycare & Preschool 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 35 number of registered child places is 7, 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.
