My daughter started attending the Christopher Robin Day Nursery in Burpham in November 2021. She has settled in very quickly and really enjoys her time at nursery. I've been impressed with the number of activities she has been doing. They all seem fun but are also good for her development. The facilities
are great and she loves playing in the garden. She seems to always eat all the food that is given to her, which is healthy and varied. I love the updates we receive via the parent site. It's so lovely to see what she's been doing during the day. It's also nice to be given tasks we can do with her at home. All the staff are excellent and friendly. They are clearly great with children. We could not recommend this nursery more highly and I am really excited for my younger daughter to start soon.

Both of my children have been extremely happy and settled at Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham. All of the staff are really lovely, and my children look forward to seeing them each day. The nursery is managed really well, and parents are well informed and engaged with the children's time and progress.
My son still attends, but my daughter left for school in September; we have come to realise how well she was prepared for her time at school and how much that has helped her to adjust and be fully ready for her next stage of education.

Both of my children have been to Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham, my son from age 1-school age and my daughter who currently attends. I couldn’t fault the nursery in any way and have always been highly impressed by all staff. Both my kids love it at the nursery and my son was very sad to leave.
I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone. The garden is also incredible.

Our son has been at Christopher Robin Day Nursery since August and has thoroughly enjoyed it from the outset. He settled in far quicker than we could ever have hoped for. The staff, in particular the manager and deputy manager, have made the whole experience a very easy and happy transition for our
son.
The activities organised for the children are very varied and the children always seem very engaged while also having fun. The portal, providing daily updates on our son's activities and progress, is really insightful and lovely to see. Communications are always easy and prompt. I can’t recommend Christopher Robin Nursery highly enough for anyone considering sending their child there.

My daughter started at Christopher Robin Day Nursery last September, and we have been very impressed since. The staff are so lovely and caring, and her key worker has been great. I feel like my daughter loves nursery and enjoys going every day, which is lovely. She is due to move up rooms now, and I’m
sure she will miss her time in the younger room but we are excited to meet the team in the next room up! Would highly recommend the nursery.

Our son (age 2) has been going to Christopher Robin Day Nursery for the last year and loves it! There is a lovely, friendly atmosphere. His key worker has been brilliant and really took the time to understand and get to know him. They plan a wide range of activities and our son is always very excited
to bring home his latest crafting creation. He recently moved up from Piglets to Kangas and the staff worked hard to ensure the transition was as smooth as possible. Very happy we chose Christopher Robin!

Sending your firstborn to nursery is so daunting, finding the right place is so important. My little girl started in January 2020, you know when you have found the perfect nursery when your little girl runs in each morning without even looking back and greets her key worker with the same enthusiasm
as she does family members. At pickups, she is so happy and sings all the way home which is a great sign. The nursery staff are very friendly, and the care for your child is very important as they make sure they meet their individual needs. The days are packed with a variety of activities for the children to choose from. Our daughter has thrived, her speech is very good, she is confident with naming a variety of things and confident in counting. The garden is a great space with lots to do and they spend lots of time outside which my daughter loves. We highly recommend Christopher Robin Day Nursery, Burpham. We plan to send our little boy soon.

We were recommended Christopher Robin Day Nursery by a friend for our eldest and we weren't disappointed. She (4) adores it there. We settled our younger son (15-months) in September on my return to work and I'm so thrilled with how he's settled in. He has made a fantastic bond with his key worker and
really enjoys the variety of activities. We particularly like the large outdoor space available at Burpham because both our children love being outside and the staff make sure they play outside as much as possible.

Our little boy started at Christopher Robin Day Nursery in the middle of lockdown so he had to begin his nursery journey without the usual induction visits. Despite this, from day one he was happy and settled, testament to the care and attention he received from the staff there. He has built up wonderful
relationships with the adults in his room, particularly his key worker who he talks about all the time! The planning and resourcing of activities each day is fantastic and we’ve been so pleased with the progress he’s made over the last ten months. We would highly recommend this nursery and are so grateful to everyone at Christopher Robin for giving our son such a good start!

My little boy (2.5 years) is at Christopher Robin Day Nursery (Burpham) and he completely loves it! The manager and her team are amazing. We are currently potty training and their support with this has been more than I could wish for. It means that I am not at all concerned about consistency and my
son is well looked after when I am not there which has made the potty training a fairly smooth process for us all.
I recently attended a 'stay and play' at the nursery where I was able to see my son at play in his classroom. This was the first time I had been inside the nursery since the start of the pandemic. I really appreciated the invite and the chance to do this and found it to be a great insight into how my son is doing in the nursery environment. Seeing the kanga's team in action was really reassuring and I now can see for myself why my son always comes home beaming after his nursery days.
I have no hesitation in recommending new parents to check out Christopher Robin - Burpham.

Both my daughters thrived and loved Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham. The staff were caring, engaging and documented plenty of photos showing them doing all sorts of fun and educational activities. I love that they use a website for messaging and documentation of the day from photos to menus.
We found communication easy and timely. I like the setup of the nursery and they have a great garden filled with entertainment for the children.
My family couldn’t recommend this nursery highly enough! Thank you so much for looking after my girls so well.

I cannot speak more highly about Christopher Robin Nursery. Both of my children attended over the last four years with my daughter just finishing her last day today prior to heading off to school. Looking back over the last four years I can honestly say that there really could not have been a more wonderful,
warm, friendly and safe environment for my children to grow and develop. The calm leadership of the manager and the enthusiasm, pride and care that all the staff put into their every working day is exceptional. They all should be so proud of what they have achieved. To any new parent looking at childcare options then I cannot speak more highly of Christopher Robin Burpham.

My son joined the nursery at the age of four and spent there nearly one year, which is enough time to gather sufficient experience allowing me to write this review. First thing, which comes to my mind is, amazing place! Personally as a parent you always worry, "how is it going to be?", "will my child
be happy?" - all those feelings/thoughts also came through my mind at the beginning of our journey, but already on day one we knew it: this is it! Our son settled very quickly, always - really always, came back home happy. The staff are very helpful, the management always there if you need them, kids are kept busy during the day with a good balance of indoor and outdoor activities (very important to me; note: spacious garden available) - all you need for your child in their early years. I would highly recommend them to anyone searching for a nursery for your child. A nursery you can trust!

I can’t rate this nursery highly enough. My 2-year-old son has come on leaps and bounds developmentally since starting here, as did his older sister when she attended the same nursery previously. The staff are amazing with the children and the facilities are wonderful - my son particularly loves the
huge outside space which was also one of the reasons we chose this nursery, which a lot of other nurseries don’t have. The children get to do so many different activities and to be able to log onto my son's page and see photos of what he has been doing is great!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.898)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.898) out of 10 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham 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 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.898 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham is calculated as follows: ( (469 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 512 Ratings = 4.898

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham is based on 43 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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 43 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.
