My son has attended Tops Winchester since he was 9months old. The staff at Tops have been encouraging, nurturing and so very caring since day one.
Not only do they provide excellent care for the children, they offer advice, guidance and reassurance to parents too.
I have never felt anything but
happy to leave him in their capable hands.They have helped him to grow into a fun, adventurous, confident young boy and encouraged him to foster some wonderful friendships with his nursery peers.
Tops Winchester is....well....TOPS!!!!!

Since my son has joined Tops Nursery, he has come on in leaps and bounds. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Tops. They are brilliant, they listen to you and are always on the same page as you. They are so caring and nothing is ever too much trouble. My son loves going into nursery and never
wants to leave!! Thank you to the girls at Winchester Tops for helping my son progress so much.

Tops nursery in Winchester is a fantastic place. I've entrusted my son to them since he was six month old (he's now 4) and he's always happy and content. I love the parent-led care they provide and have recommended it to many of my colleagues who have taken me up and found the same. Safe, caring and
yet a place to explore and develop.

Our son has been with Tops Winchester since September this year and has both enjoyed himself greatly and been looked after by expert carers. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff and they are excellent at communicating what's happening with our son and making observations that are useful for us
to know. It has been a real pleasure engaging with them and we can see that our son is very happy and settled in the environment. We are very grateful for all that the staff have done and would have no hesitation in recommending the nursery to any prospective parents.

This nursery is brilliant, my daughter was welcomed with so much enthusiasm and a lot of thought and care is put into stimulating her, helping her development and ensuring she's happy. I am kept in touch regularly throughout every day with photos, videos and updates, and even when she was ill and absent
for a month the nursery kept in touch regularly to say they missed her. I feel really happy and secure leaving her here every day as she is so happy and cared for.

My son started Tops when he was 6 months and quickly settled in. He is now in explorers and really enjoys and looks forward to nursery. The staff are fantastic and full of energy making it a fun place for him to learn and play. Each day his activities seem to be adapted to meet his personal preferences
as well as one-on-one time with his key person. I couldn't be more pleased with his experience and development there.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.662)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.662) out of 10 for Tops Day Nurseries: Winchester Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 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 4.842 for Tops Day Nurseries: Winchester Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (103 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.842

  • 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 4.82 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tops Day Nurseries: Winchester Nursery 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 61 number of registered child places is 12.2. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.2 = 0.82

  • 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.
