Since moving my eldest daughter to this setting she enjoys going to nursery every day. My youngest child joined soon after and immediately settled. Both children have great relationships with the staff and speak fondly about them. The flexibility the nursery offers through shift bookings is very helpful
as shift workers. A great nursery all round.

Reply from Funke Olotu, Marketing at Tops Day Nurseries: Bearwood Nursery

We're so delighted to hear that your eldest daughter and youngest child are enjoying their time at our nursery! It warms our hearts to know that they look forward to coming here every day. We're glad they've settled in so well and have formed wonderful relationships with our caring and dedicated staff. Our flexible shift bookings are designed to accommodate the needs of busy families like yours, and we're thrilled that it's been helpful for you. Thank you for your kind words about our nursery, we strive to create a great and nurturing environment for all the children in our care!

My child is well looked after at Tops Nurseries and all the staff are very friendly and engaged. He is learning lots here and is supported with writing and maths because he shows an interest!
My only criticism would be that soup seems to feature on the menu a lot.

Reply from Ellen Wentworth, Marketing Assistant at Tops Day Nurseries: Bearwood Nursery

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a lovely review, we will make sure to share your feedback about the soup with our catering team.

My daughter has attended the nursery since it opened just over a year ago (when she was 10 months old). She has developed and grown so much thanks to the staff at Tops Day Nurseries: Bearwood! She loves attending and gets sad when leaving, which just shows the bonds she has created at the nursery. The
staff are always kind, polite and tell us about her day. We look forward to enrolling our new daughter with this nursery when the times comes. Thank you.

Our son absolutely loves nursery. He has come on so well since starting Tops Bearwood. He's such a happy little boy coming in and out. The staff are very supportive, kind and nurturing. He has been having additional speech therapy input by the staff to aid his learning goals and it's having a positive
impact on his development. Thank you Tops Bearwood staff, you are all amazing.
Thank you for caring for my little boy so well.

My daughter is very happy at the nursery and regularly comes home with evidence of activities they have conducted throughout the day. We are happier as a whole at this setting, having moved from Bournemouth Tops. They also played a very large part in her potty training, for which I am very grateful.

I started my foster daughter here due to the facilities and the forest school/outside area. Since she started here she has become a more interactive little girl, talking and joining in whilst building bonds with children and staff. They cater to her dietary requirements and update me on any information
I need to know. Moving her to this setting was the best thing I have done for her. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to her and all the other little ones.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.259)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.259) out of 10 for Tops Day Nurseries: Bearwood Nursery 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 7 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 4.798 for Tops Day Nurseries: Bearwood Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (68 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.798

  • 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 4.461 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tops Day Nurseries: Bearwood Nursery is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 46 number of registered child places is 9.2. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.2 = 0.761

  • 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.
