Both my Children have attended the nursery 5 days a week most week due to working commitments. Having a place where both children were loved and cared for whilst being given the chance to develop through all the amazing activities the staff set up was amazing. Wonderful setting!!

Nursery has been amazing at putting great safeguarding steps in place, has listened to any concerns I have, and has helped my daughter make friends and settle in well as it's her first nursery experience. The place always seems clean (minus the chaos of children with toys) and they make sure all the
snacks are healthy and balanced.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our eldest son started at the age of 2 back in September 2021. He was non verbal and a global delay. With lots of love and support from all the wonderful staff at Kaleidascope he has come on leaps and bounds. Hes now settled at big school where he is meeting or exceeding targets set. From being non
verbal until the of 3.5 years old to an absolute chatter box. I credit a lot of his progress to the support he received during his 3 years at Kaleidascope. Our youngest son started at the age of 2 back in April 2023. He has additional needs and I can't fault the support he has received. The nursery are committed to making sure he is fully supported both at Kaleidascope and when he transitions to big school in September. He loves attending and I love seeing the massive improvements in his development. I couldn't recommend this nursery more if I tried.

My son has been attending nursery since April/May 2024 and I never thought he'd come out of his shell with other children, but he's got a lovely bunch of friends and has learnt a lot since being there. Also, the manager is an absolute star and so lovely. She's helped me with extra sessions when I've
needed them and she's been a listening ear as my family are going through a hard time at the moment. I'm so grateful to this nursery and all the help they have provided and how they look after my son.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.042)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.042) out of 10 for Kaleidascope Childcare Ltd - Dover 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 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 5.000 for Kaleidascope Childcare Ltd - Dover is calculated as follows: ( (48 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 5

  • 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 4.042 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kaleidascope Childcare Ltd - Dover 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 30 number of registered child places is 6. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.667

  • 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.
