The manager and her whole team are absolutely fantastic. My son transferred from another nursery where he had been really unsettled. We started in December, the settling in process was fantastic our key worker is lovely and we have a very happy little boy. Communication from the nursery has been excellent
every step of the way. And the children go outside all the time which is great to see.
I couldn't recommend this nursery enough!

We moved our little one from another Bright Horizons nursery as we hadn’t been very happy at all. He’s only had three full days there and the staff have been amazing. Our little boy comes home talking about what he has done and is happy at drop off and pick up, rather than racing to the door to go home.
The staff clearly have a deep passion for the job that they do and this comes across through the way they interact and get to know each child. In the short time we have been here, observations have been exceptional, it is clear that they really know our son and want the best for him. We can not recommend the nursery enough.

My little boy absolutely loves the nursery, and it is definitely the best in the area. I think some levels of expectations are unachievable for a building full of very small children (cleanliness etc) but they do an excellent job of keeping everything spick and span whilst not compromising activities
with the kids. I've recommended the nursery to many of my friends.

My daughter has attended the nursery for nearly three years and has had a wonderful time. The staff have always known everything about my daughter, including her little quirks. Her daddy is in the army and so is away a lot and the staff have all made sure that she is supported and given extra hugs when
needed.

A fantastic nursery, clean and bright with a great outdoor playing area for the children. The staff are so professional, kind and attentive to the needs of the children. All the staff members know my child so every time we go in he is welcomed by name which is so thoughtful and makes my child feel very
important. I am so happy that I chose this nursery for my son as I feel that he has grown so confident from the shy toddler when he first started to the smart, funny and sociable little boy that he is now. They really look at each child's individual needs and work on the skills that they require to start school comfortably. They always keep the parents updated every day with how their child was in class that day and always inform you of their goals and achievements. This nursery is exactly what every parent would want for their child's first steps into education.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We currently have our 2nd son at the nursery, and can’t rate it enough. What appealed to us was the great flow it had. As a mother of 2 boys, we really wanted a nursery that understood how they need to move and feel free, whilst also helping them to learn to sit and learn and listen. Both my boys were
late talkers and they helped give them confidence to express themselves and build up vocabulary. When my now 6-year-old started school, he was so confident and rounded and didn’t find the jump that big as he had been preparing for it the last year at nursery. My youngest is now entering his final year at nursery- and already I can see him growing and gaining in confidence and independence. I can’t recommend this nursery enough- my boys only do/did 2 full days a week and both run/ran in on nursery days. They build such strong relationships with the staff that my 6-year-old still loves it if he is able to come to pick his brother up to get hugs and tell his favourites what’s going on in his world

Our experience of the Nursery has been fantastic and we would definitely recommend to others. The nursery itself is a fun and bright environment. Since joining my son has developed in so many ways. He is more confident and balanced and looks forward to going into nursery every day. I would like to thank
the Nursery team for the outstanding care they have given to my son over the past years. Every Team member is kind, thoughtful and professional! I am grateful for their efforts and I'm sure this is over and above anything I could find elsewhere. Thank you.

We have chosen this nursery for both of our daughters because it is a safe, caring and stimulating environment which benefits from fantastic access to the outdoor garden, encouraging all children to free flow. When we viewed it we ‘just got that feeling’. All members of staff are approachable and have
a clear love of children and their learning. All nursery staff know all of the children by name and each room that my children have been in all staff have ‘got my children’ and their quirks. I will be so sad for my eldest as she leaves nursery to begin school, as she has thrived at this nursery.

We recently moved our daughter to Bright Horizons Church Crookham and have been really impressed with the organisation and general attitude of all the staff we deal with. The manager was fantastic at making the process easier to comprehend in what was a daunting time moving our little one from a nursery
where she could settle at all. She now seems much happier and if I am honest, I feel she is more stimulated and talkative about what she does during her days. I love the fact that the children can use the garden at any time and can 100% recommend this to parents thinking about nurseries.

It’s clear that the staff all love their job and they have always made me feel that my child is very special. We did try another local pre-school but I just didn’t feel that they were that interested in getting to know my child. Since joining this nursery, I have never had to worry about my little boy
as I know they look after him as if he were their own. The nursery is one of the only ones I’ve visited that utilises it’s garden to its full potential. Children can flow in and out as they wish, in all weathers. The nursery manager is fantastic and so understanding. Everyone is always smiling and I can never get my son out at the end of his session so it’s obviously five stars from him!! There is a reason why the entrance hall is full of awards and accolades. Each one of these is 100% deserved.

We have had two children attend this nursery, our eldest nearly 6 years ago and our youngest now recently moved into his final room "Graduators". We love the dedication and commitment that the manager and her team have provided to our children over this time and the continuity of staff has felt like
they have all become part of our family. Feedback from the staff on the day to day activities is great and if the experiences of our eldest starting school is anything to go by, I have every confidence that our youngest will be well prepared to start school next year.

The nursery is clean and has a homely feeling as soon as you walk into the building. The staff are friendly and always willing to give advice and are always professional and friendly. The children adore the nursery and staff. This is evident in the just the short time that we spend in the room at drop
off time. Thank you to all of the dedicated staff for making the children so happy.

My daughter has been at Church Crookham for 2 1/2 years. She has always settled in quickly and loves going each week. She does lots of exciting activities and learns lots of exciting new things. She has moved up each room with ease and has also built great bonds with her key person and the staff in
the room. The staff keep me up to date with what she has been doing in the day and with how her learning and development is progressing. They have also just introduced Intergenerational care, which I think is such an amazing opportunity for my daughter to be part of.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.827)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.827) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Church Crookham Day Nursery and Preschool 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.827 for Bright Horizons Church Crookham Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (315 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 371 Ratings = 4.827

  • 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 Bright Horizons Church Crookham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 31 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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4, which has been reached with 31 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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Hello, I am Chloe, the Nursery Manager.


I grew up in the local area and started my management career at this nursery back in 2013. After being promoted from a room leader, to then the Deputy Manager and the Acting Manager, I wanted to advance my career, so I left Bright Horizons to work for a nursery attached to a school.


This is where I have gained lots of skills and experience, being a team leader and striving for positive change, which resulted in the providers offering outstanding care and education.


Working with children is all I know and after graduating with a degree in Early Years and Education, I knew I was ready for a lifetime career in the sector. Watching children grow during their most fundamental years is the most rewarding job.


Myself and my two children are extremely excited to join the Church Crookham family and can't wait to welcome you at our nursery.


Gracie

Gracie

Job Title: Deputy Manager

After a career change, I went back to university and achieved my PGCE in Primary Education in 2014. I then taught in the Early Years for nearly 10 years.


In May 2023, I decided to step sideways into the day nursery setting, a new challenge with lots for me to learn and an opportunity for me to share my teaching experience. I love working with children and what I love about Bright Horizons is the family feel and care we have for the children and families.


I started with Church Crookham as the Third in Charge and loved being part of a team that worked hard to ensure all the children were loved, had fun and excelled in their learning. In October 2023 I was promoted to Deputy Manager and I am excited to continue to work with the team to grow stronger and to continue to learn from each other.


Having my twin girls come to the nursery is an added bonus and they too get to experience the wonderful day-to-day activities and learn from a truly special team. I feel very lucky.
