  • Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School, Winchester
Finkley Weeke Nursery are huge believers in learning through hands-on experiences and play. Not only do children have access to the excellent facilities at the nursery, but they also visit local attractions regularly, such as Finkley Down Farm, Winnall Moors, local woods and parks to extend their learning through fun and practical activities.

The fun does not stop there! Back at the setting, the children's curiosity determines how the nursery is created every day. The setting is fortunate to have a huge amount of green outdoor space, which features its very own mud kitchen, sensory pathway, messy play, bug hotel and parking garage for the young motorists. There is a range of options for children to choose from indoors too, such as making crafts, cooking, playing, reading and building.

The ethos at Finkley Weeke is ‘Happy Children, Happy Parents, Happy Staff’, which creates the foundations of their nursery.

My daughter has only been at Finkley Weeke Nursery since April, but it feels like she has been going for a lot longer as she absolutely loves it, and we have been welcomed as part of their little family.
We love the stay-and-play sessions; it is so nice to see what the children do, get involved with
their activities and meet other parents and have a chat. They are always so much fun!
Finkley Weeke provides such a nurturing environment and enriching experiences for the children they care for. My daughter really enjoys the trips to the farm and going out and about, and absolutely loves taking part in the fitness classes. It is so nice to hear her tell me about her days out with enthusiasm and excitement.
I also think the trips to the nursing home are such a great opportunity for both young and old to connect. My daughter loves visiting.
I could not recommend this nursery enough.

Reply from Tanisha Kenway, Deputy Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

My daughter started Finkley Weeke in September 2022. The nursery is so friendly with lots of different activities happening throughout the day. It is fantastic that the children get to go out and about on local visits and also have the opportunity to go to Finkley Down Farm as well. We get a daily update
with lots of pictures so we can see what the children have been doing. Thank you to all the staff for all their hard work and care for my daughter.

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We love being able to offer the children all the fantastic opportunities that we do and seeing the children enjoy themselves and learning! We pride ourselves on having great parent communication and am so glad that you appreciate this.

Our son started at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School last November when we moved to Winchester from London. We have been continually impressed with the experience he has had since starting due to the care and kindness of the staff and the wonderful opportunities that they provide each day. Communication
is always effective with daily observations and plenty of opportunities for parental involvement, such as the Mother’s Day coffee morning, Christmas show and the sparkler evening for Bonfire Night, which we have found particularly inclusive as a new family in the city. We have already signed our younger son up ready to start next year and would recommend the nursery to everyone. Thank you for all of your continued hard work!

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your amazing review! We are so thrilled you feel so included in our Finkley family and that this has welcomed you to a new city! We love having you here with us and can't wait for little one to join the fun too! Thank you again for your kind words!

My son started attending Finkley Weeke in Jan 2022, he was 2 at that time. He had a few settling-in sessions and settled in very well. He is always excited to go to nursery. He loves the outdoor space and loves going to the farm. We are very happy with the nursery.

My son has been going to Finkley Weeke since turning 2 years old. He has settled in so well! He loves going to the farm and he is always singing nursery rhymes when he’s back home. The staff seems to really love what they do and go the extra mile to make every day special for the little ones.

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased to hear that he loves singing at home as much as here with us! We are so pleased you can see the love and commitment our team bring to every day at nursery.

My little one has always been very attached to me. I was slightly worried about how he would settle but he went straight in which just shows that he was very comfortable around all the staff members. I can’t fault them at all and my little one absolutely loves it.

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your review! We are beyond happy that he has settled so well with us and that you are so pleased with us all! It is so important that not only your child but you as a parent, are welcomed and comfortable with us! We are so glad to have achieved that. Thank you again for your lovely words.

After recently moving to the area we discovered this nursery and as soon as we had our walk around we knew this was the place we wanted to send our son. The staff have been amazing. They are all attentive, friendly and overall caring. Finkley Weeke Nursery really engages with the children and develop
them in a very individualised way through a variety of activities. Everyone here is really committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment and I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough.

Our daughter has been at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School since January and is very happy there. She does so many fabulous activities and speaks very highly of the lovely staff that work there. She loves having the outside providers come in each week and has definitely grown in her independence
since being at Finkley Weeke.

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your kind words! We adore having her as part of our Finkley Family. She is one of our little helpers and has grown so much in the last few months! Thank you again for such a lovely review.

My daughter started at Finkley Weeke after a few settling-in sessions in August 2022. I was so worried and full of mum guilt about moving her nurseries after being so settled, but due to a nursery closure, I had no choice. I am so thankful for all the staff making the transition so easy and being so
friendly and loving. The set-up and activities in the nursery are so well planned and really focus on the children's development areas. My daughter also loves going on the nursery bus to the farm! I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone within the area.

Our 3-year-old has been at Finkley Weeke Nursery for several months now and we are all so happy with the setting. Our son is always so excited to be going into nursery on the days he attends and runs the whole way in! They offer so many wonderful activities and trips out, no day is ever the same. The
staff are always so caring and clearly passionate about the children, we always receive a detailed handover at the end of each day. We have recommended Finkley Nursery to lots of people as we are just so impressed. Thank you Finkley Weeke Nursery!

Wonderful nursery and my son loves going. He often puts his ‘welly boots’ on at the weekend and asks to ‘go to Finkley Weeke Nursery please’.


The staff are friendly and attentive and take great care of the kids. My son, who is my third child, is the only one who has not had any nappy rash while at

nursery.
The trips are also excellent. Highly recommended.

My daughter started at Finkley Weeke Nursery in February as part of our move from London. We were obviously slightly nervous for her but by the end of Week 1 our fears were completely alleviated - she absolutely loved it! I find the staff are universally excellent and transmit the right values and mindset
we feel are important in our daughter's development. The exposure they give the children to the real world via trips to the farm or the supermarket I feel are already shaping her into a more rounded child. I already have complete trust with the team and she genuinely skips her way there. Well done all for creating a fantastic environment for the development of the children lucky enough to go there.

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Deputy Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Wow! What a wonderful review. Thank you so much! We are so proud of our staff here and all they do and are delighted in how confident and happy they make you feel. Thank you again for your kind words, we feel very lucky to have you all as part of our Finkley Family.

My daughter has been going to Finkley Weeke Nursery since January 2022 and always comes home telling me how much she loves it there! This nursery stood out to us because of the lovely big outside space and the trips the children get to go on. We get lots of updates and photos of what the children have
been doing during the day which is really nice. There are so many different activities - they even have Spanish lessons! I would thoroughly recommend!

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Deputy Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

Thank you so much for your great review! We are so pleased to hear we stood out for you! We know how much your daughter enjoys all the extra activities we do here and are so glad she goes home talking about them! Spanish is definitely a favourite! We are so glad to have you all as part of our Finkley Family!

My daughter started at this nursery at the end of February (having moved from a London nursery) and she absolutely loves it! She settled in immediately thanks to the wonderful staff for making her feel at home. She loves all the trips out (farm, woods, playground, supermarket!) and I feel these really
help with giving her confidence and hands-on knowledge of the world. The staff are really incredible and they provide lots of updates (both written via the app, photos and verbal at end of the day). We could not be happier with the nursery!

My daughter loves going to this nursery. The staff are always warm, and caring and communicate with the children in an inclusive, playful way. The children always look happy when I see them in the garden and the place always has a calm feeling to it, unlike many other nurseries I have seen. Since my
daughter has started Finkley Weeke Nursery, her confidence has grown and she has made some wonderful positive relationships with staff and other children. The activities they do involve all ages, and they do trips out in their minibus which I think really benefits the experience of the children and my daughter always enjoys them!

Reply from Lottie Frogley, Deputy Manager at Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School

What a lovely review, thank you very much! We are so glad you have been able to get a feel for our wonderfully happy and calm environment and that is helping your daughter's confidence flourish. We love having you all as part of our Finkley Family!

My niece absolutely loves this Nursery! She has only joined recently but Is thriving. I've noticed a development in her language skills since starting. The care and love the staff offer are outstanding. My niece is always welcomed with a warm greeting from the lovely staff. She loves going on trips
to the farm and enjoys the amazing activities provided, such as making a birdhouse, painting, playing in the mud kitchen and many many more! Would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.974)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.974) out of 10 for Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.974 for Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (338 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 346 Ratings = 4.974

  • 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 Finkley Weeke Nursery and Pre-School is based on 29 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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2, which has been reached with 29 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.
