Very happy with the transition to the next room, child settled quickly and development and growth noticeable. Staff do all they can to accommodate e.g when our child was struggling to sleep extra measures and use of blanket from home was welcomed and encouraged. The staff in the room have a lovely connection
with the kids and make the room a fun happy learning environment. We have however experienced a number of key worker changes and room manager changes difficult to get continuity and a feeling that one single person is concentrating on our child.

Since my daughter has been at Kids Unlimited her development and confidence has been remarkable. She started at 9 months old and is now two and a half. Her transition from room and key person has been remarkable and since moving into investigators, her communication has come on leaps and bounds and
she now has a relationship with all the workers and isn't phased when someone new comes into the room. Her bond with her key person is valuable and communication to myself is also fantastic.

Church Crookham Kidsunlimited is a lovely place for children to be. My son enjoys his stay and activities here every day. They have free access to the garden which enables them to explore the outside whenever they want. The staff here are very friendly and helpful. My son established relationships with
his key persons very quickly. They are very pro-active at solving problems as well. My sons key person made books for us to use at home to help with meal and sleep routine and Christmas period as well. I feel very comfortable dropping my son here every day knowing he will enjoy his day here.

Our child has been at this nursery since a year old. He's now 4.. The staff's nurturing care is excellent. They not only put your child at ease on their early days of attending but the put the parent at ease too. Contact at any point during the day is encouraged. As our child has grown and developed
he's moved up through each class and we see the nursery as extended family. He's also an excellent learning environment. Group activities inside and outside, one to one learning and attention, P.E and French too! Thank you all the staff for your love, care and constant attention.

Very caring and friendly atmosphere with lots of new ideas all the time on how to delight the children. For example leading up to Christmas there was a naughty elf who came out each night and left a trail of paint/flour/etc for the children to discover the next morning.

This nursery is lovely! From our first visit where there was a welcome sign on the door to my daughters first day where I was given a little care package they could not be more thoughtful. The staff are so friendly and polite and the nursery itself is amazing! Great facilities for all ages and everything
has been well thought through.

Our little one loves this nursery. She has been going since 5 months and cannot wait to go every day. All the staff are lovely and they know every single child/baby which go there full or part time, even if they don't belong in their respective age groups. The whole set up of the nursery is geared to
make the kids confident and learn whilst having fun. Our little one has just started French lessons in addition to her weekly "stretch and grow", both which she thinks is great. She comes home most weeks with a culinary achievement. The nursery are very charity focused and hold many events throughout the year and encourage parents to get involved. The nursery has accommodated our wishes concerning our little one's routine and have helped us through the usual rough and tumbles. Our child's development is key and we genuinely believe she wouldn't get much better anywhere else.

Our oldest child started at this nursery when he was 7 months old and it had only just opened - the moment we walked in we knew that we wanted a place, lots of light, cleverly designed with lots of free flow into the garden. Three years on and our second child has also started and we didn't hesitate
to put their name down. Whilst the building is fantastic, all on one level for a start, the staff are outstanding. The relationships and interactions with the children is amazing and the atmosphere is one of encouragement and development. Changes to the way the preschool works at the nursery have been positive with children having PE and Show and Tell days to help with the transition to school and a great idea to implement. I will be very sad when my oldest leaves but happy in the knowledge that the time spent here will have set them in good stead for school. I would strongly recommend anyone wanting to send their children to a nursery to put the names down as soon as possible.

I have two children at Kids Unlimited Church Crookham and both absolutely LOVE it there. The teachers are all top class and the facilities and range of activities planned for the children are wonderful. There is never a morning my two don't want to go to nursery. I would highly recommend the school.

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.
