Our son has attended the nursery full time for over a year and, despite it being tough leaving him for so much of the time, we have always felt he is in good hands. The staff are always friendly, happy and caring and I certainly think it rubs off on the children. They do all sorts of fun crafts and
activities. Our little boy particularly loves going out in the amazing big garden. He’s often coming home having learnt a new song or skill that surprises me and he’s often buzzing when he gets home after having a great day which is lovely to see.
Thank you to Christopher Robin for doing a fantastic job looking after our son and I look forward to a couple more years with you before he starts school.

I would thoroughly recommend Christopher Robin Burpham. Throughout the entire ‘settling in process,’ we felt well informed and comfortable with the level of personal care provided for our daughter. As a teacher, I know just how important safeguarding is and reading through the excellent procedures and
policies provided me with all of the information I could ever need to know. Since starting, our daughter has been made to feel so welcome by the whole team, but particularly from her key person. Being one of the youngest children, it was heartwarming to see special toys and equipment introduced to the Piglet classroom just for her. Returning to work is difficult for any first time Mummy, and I can’t thank the team enough for making myself and my husband feel completely at ease. I know that our daughter is happy, safe and cared for. From the first nursery tour to picking up our bubbly little 11-month-old tonight, the team have made us feel like part of the family.

I have just had a very tearful farewell to Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham. After 6 years of seeing both our children through their nursery years, as a family, we have come to regard the nursery and the staff as family, so it feels strange to be saying goodbye. Both children have been at the
nursery from 5 months old. Leaving a baby this old to have to return to work is not easy, but the nursery and the amazing staff made this so much easier to bear. Both children enjoyed and looked forward to attending, and would come home happily discussing their day's activities. The nursery is incredibly well managed and we have valued their flexibility and approach, particularly when our second child had unexpected and serious health problems. The facilities, in particular the garden, are fantastic. I have been handed the most beautiful book of the nursery memories in pictures, and it shows just how much fun has been had. Thank you so much.

Having your first child is full of unknown amounts of worry. So more so than when we put our 1yr old into nursery and we were obviously anxious. We needn't have burned the calories worrying. Christopher Robin has been amazing from helping our little boy settle into making us feel comfortable to information
sharing. It's been incredibly impressive. Even more impressive is the rapid development we have seen in our boy's cognitive skills, speech and general problem-solving skills. This has all been in the first 3 weeks! The team there are awesome and work hard to give all the kids love and support to grow. We're so happy we chose Christopher Robin Burpham and the team.

The nursery has a very child-friendly setting. It's clear that our daughter enjoys her time here. It took her only one session for her to become comfortable with her key person and the setting. Compared to the previous nursery I hear fewer kids crying when I'm doing dropoff and pick-up.
The nursery
has a very nice garden and I like that the kids are exposed to the elements in every season. The inside area could be bigger, but I don't think the kids notice it. I notice that my daughter has learned a lot here quickly, she understands language much better, and I like that there is a nose-wiping corner.
Areas, where I would like to see improvements, is technology. The nursery does offer an online portal to view a child's progress, but the experience is limited. Also, the entrance to the nursery could be enhanced with a key fob.

My daughter started in the piglets room in September 2019 and she is so happy there. Very well fed (5* compared to home!), watered, nappy changed and I can tell that the staff are nice to her because she is very happy with them. We had a nappy rash issue and they were happy to work with me to try to
resolve it. Nice indoor and outdoor space. I'd highly recommend. We still are yet to have a review with them in terms of my daughter's progress but I feel as if they are monitoring her well so far.

Our overall experience of the Christopher Robin Day Nursery, Burpham has been extraordinarily good. Staff are excellent, very positive and caring to the kids. We really appreciate how they transformed our little girl over the period and helped to build quality characteristics and great personality.
Our girl seems to love her time at Nursery and always eager to go there in the morning. She seems to be very close to the staff. We would definitely recommend to others.

My little boy has been in Burpham Christopher Robin Day Nursery since 2016, where he started in Piglets. He absolutely loves nursery. He loves the nursery staff and speaks fondly of all the staff that work in his class. My son has grown in confidence and is ready for reception. He has been given all
the skills needed to do well in the move into a new school and reception. We have full confidence that our little girl who is now in Piglets will be given the same care and taught the same skills in preparation for school readiness.

All the staff at the nursery know my little one by name even though she’s not directly under their care. The staff make you feel so welcome and you can tell they enjoy what they do and that comes out tenfold when you see how happy the kids are!!! My little one always comes home telling me of her adventure
of the day! I have cherished the time my little one has spent at Christopher Robin as the staff have really helped make her the little person she is! Thank you!!

Our daughter loves coming to Christopher Robin! There is a low turnover of staff which means the children get to know the staff well. Our daughter has bonded with her key worker and many of the other staff too. She gets to do lots of different activities and a particular strength of the nursery is the
huge and well-equipped garden.

My daughter has been at this nursery for nearly a year and is preparing to go to school in September - we have been very impressed with the care given and cannot recommend this setting highly enough. She has access to lots of creative activities and learning opportunities, also access to a wonderful
outside space. "I love it" she says! Despite being a fussy eater, there has also been a wide range of foods for her to try. The staff are lovely, caring and attentive and the manager highly organised. I have always felt 100% comfortable leaving my daughter in their care.

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.
