My son has just left this wonderful nursery, the staff are amazing and so chatty, they all keep you updated on everything. My son had trouble settling in at first (he's a mummy's boy) but he soon was rushing to get through that door. While at Dunsbury Way, my son was diagnosed with a brain tumour, and
wow I have never seen a workplace come together like they did for my family, nothing was ever too big to ask for, they were at the other end of the phone if I ever needed anything. We did take some time to get back into a routine after my son was fit and well to return back to nursery, and nothing was ever too big to ask for, everything was done on our terms and when we wanted to add more hours it wasn't a problem. I highly recommend this nursery and I will 100% be sending my daughter here when the time comes. Well done ladies at Dunsbury Way Nursery.

My daughter has just graduated from Dunsbury Way Nursery and the change we have seen throughout her journey with this nursery team has been remarkable. The staff have been so helpful and supportive getting her from a shy recluse with speech and hearing issues through to a bouncy, eager and outgoing
rocket ready for school.

My daughter went to Girls & Boys Dunsbury Way from age 2-4. I couldn't praise them enough. She has flourished since joining the nursery. The staff have gone above and beyond to support her with speech development, potty training and gaining confidence with everything. They put up daily posts on their
group page so parents can see what activities the children have been involved in. They are easy to approach in person but also very quick to reply to emails as well. My daughter started there very shy but it's amazing how much confidence she had gained due to all the support she has received! Thank you Girls & Boys!

This nursery is just simply amazing and the best in the area by far!
I enrolled my son into this nursery as his previous nursery couldn't accommodate my new work hours and Girls and Boys Nursery made this such an easy process and it was all done so quickly. My son looks forward to going into nursery
everyday with a smile on his face I don't even get a goodbye he's too interested in going in and playing with all his friends! All the staff are brilliant and so friendly, they work so closely with the children and it's lovely to see and if the parents have a question or worry they are quick to help and resolve. I would 100% recommend this nursery to anyone, 5 stars from me all around!

My son goes to Girls and Boys Nursery and he really enjoys going and looks forward to it, the staff have been amazing with my son. I could not wish for better staff than they have there. What amazing people/staff. They have helped my son come a very long way and I would highly recommend them to any
parent. It's so safe, I was not worried once I saw my son going there and there is a system where you can have a password so only certain people can pick up your child if they know the password. My son got really upset one day and they phoned me as they tried everything to calm my son down but nothing worked, that is what makes me highly recommend the nursery to Mums and Dads who have children or stepchildren. I really could not be any happier with the nursery, really couldn't be, it's an amazing nursery.

Would highly recommend this Nursery to anyone they will always help if needed. They have good communication, letting you know about the child's behaviour and how they are getting on in the nursery. Easy to phone through if you do need to phone into the nursery.

This is the best nursery in the area by far. They have helped me and my daughter through so much. Two of the teachers are the best workers there, my little girl loves them and is so upset to start her new chapter without them.
When my little one started she was shy and below on development, but now
is outgoing; she has made so many friends, other than her cousin, and she is helpful to everyone. I've even sent my boy here, as I know and trust them with him. Highly recommend this nursery.

I cannot recommend this nursery enough.
My daughter came here 8 years ago and she thrived from a mummy’s girl that wouldn’t leave my side to an independent little woman. The staff bend over backwards to help in any way they can and every one of them are a delight. My son started last month and has
been struggling with attachment issues but they have gone above and beyond to try and get him to love nursery and leave without me staying in the nursery with him.
They’ve broken hours down and we’ve gone at a pace my son agrees with and he’s finally starting to spend time here without me and being happy which is massive!
If anyone is looking for a nursery I’d say this is the best one within the Havant area.

Well, I've visited a few nurseries, and none appealed to me for my son. He's been going here since last April, and he loves it, and he loves all the staff; they are always so helpful. I've never had any worries about leaving my child there. I love picking him up and seeing all the kids laughing and
playing. We drive past on closed days, and he still asks to go see his friends and the staff. 10/10.

Thank you for the lovely review. It means so much and knowing your child loves it so much to want to come when we are closed. Thank you for the kind words, it really does mean a lot.

My twins absolutely loved this preschool. They learnt to be more independent, and their speech improved drastically. The staff are so caring, bubbly and supportive. Twins always came out with a smile, and I had peace of mind knowing it was a safe environment for my children. I would recommend the preschool
to anyone. The staff kept me updated on their days, what they ate, and how they were and listened to me when I spoke to them. Thank you all for a brilliant year!

Reply from Tracy Dallimer, Nursery Manager at Girls & Boys Nursery Dunsbury Way

Thank you for the lovely review; it means a lot to us. We do miss their cheerful smile and caring nature. Hope they are settling into school well, making new friends, and creating many happy memories.

Both my children went to this nursery, and it has been an absolutely amazing journey for all of us! My son went here just before lockdown in 2019, and when everything returned to "normal", I opted to keep him home purely because of a lot of change, but that didn't mean they stopped contact. The manager
personally rang at least once a week to ask how he was, which I thought was a really personal touch in such a worrying time. Thank you! In September 2021, my daughter started here and again welcomed us like old friends, and my daughter felt comfortable and secure for her whole learning journey. As a cloth nappy parent, I was anxious with her starting as disposables were not an option for us, but as normal they took it in their stride and, after a few hiccups, became cloth nappy experts. They also helped with potty training and fussy eating habits. I would 100% recommend this nursery to any parent as they are so calm and understanding of any circumstance. I cannot thank them enough.

Reply from Tracy Dallimer, Nursery Manager at Girls & Boys Nursery Dunsbury Way

Thank you for the kind review. It has been our pleasure to have had both of your children, and wish them well for the future that awaits them. Thank you for putting your trust in us to care for both of your children; it means a lot - thank you.

A brilliant nursery - highly recommended to anyone. The staff are lovely, so easy to talk to, and most importantly, they are amazing with the children. My daughter started when she was two and left this year to start school. She absolutely loved nursery - never had any problems, and she learnt so much.
They always made her days exciting and fun. Thanks for everything you have done!

Thank you for your kind review. It seems strange not seeing that cheeky smile every day, but I'm sure she is now sharing her smile/knowledge and opinions with many others. She is greatly missed, as are you.

My son has been at this nursery since he was two, and he is nearly four now. He has flourished into such a clever, cheeky and happy little boy. The staff there are so lovely, kind, caring and welcoming; we wouldn't change a thing, he absolutely loves going into the nursery, and as a mum, that's so reassuring.
Would highly recommend.

My child has recently left Dunsbury Way nursery. The staff are amazing and are very nurturing when my child was upset. All the staff help with my child's development and speech and has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are very knowledgeable and very approachable with any worries or problems and also
very professional. I would definitely recommend this nursery; the staff are amazing, the setting is very good, and my child absolutely loved going to the nursery. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Thank you for your kind words. We loved watching the confidence grow in your child, and the smile when entering the nursery was infectious. It has been our pleasure to have had your child and to have met you. We wish you both the very best as a new chapter begins.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.987)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.987) out of 10 for Girls & Boys Nursery Dunsbury Way 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.987 for Girls & Boys Nursery Dunsbury Way is calculated as follows: ( (153 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.987

  • 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 Girls & Boys Nursery Dunsbury Way is based on 13 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 13 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.
