Day Nurseries Owned by Curious Explorers Day Nurseries and Pre-Schools in Hampshire

We started our son at Curious Explorers at 10 months old, the staff are so caring and lovely that it just made me feel comfortable taking my son each day. In the baby room you get constant updates throughout the day and pictures which helps to put you at ease! The activities they provide are great, especially their mother's day and fathers day. I would definitely recommend the team at Curious Explorers.

Our son was a Curious Explorer from 11 months old until the week he started school so we have experience of the baby room, toddler room and the preschool. I am so glad that we were able to secure a place at Curious Explorers and my son had the most wonderful 3 years there. We knew from our initial visit that this was where we wanted our son to be cared for and learn. All of the staff were warm and friendly and all of the children looked so happy and were clearly having a wonderful time! Having looked at other settings i really felt that the level of engagement between staff and children and the warm homely friendly feel really set Curious Explorers apart from other options. My son bonded well with staff, made lovely friends, ate super home cooked food, learnt so much and enjoyed so many experiences, activities and opportunities. I would highly recommend Curious Explorers to others, we really miss being there!

My daughter has been here since a year old and just graduated from pre school she has loved it all, the staff are fantastic and the children go out regularly to forest school. She loved the cows in the fields behind and was very happy to go to preschool, she built great connections with the staff. I really can't fault this nursery and preschool. The manager is always quick to reply to emails and tries her best to accommodate additional requests. My daughter always comes home and tells me about so many activities, her learning has come on such a long way with the teaching they do and support they provide.

My daughter has just finished preschool having started with Curious Explorers Crookham Village when she was one. I can't speak highly enough of the care, support and kindness the Nursery has given over the last three and a half years. The Nursery itself looks out onto fields and the garden between the main building and the preschool cabins is great- full of play equipment and activity zones. The rooms are all bright and welcoming and full of books and toys to entertain and introduce the kids to learning. The meals provided are nutritious and varied. Finally the staff are all wonderful- warm, friendly, professional and experienced. There is also a real culture of supportive learning and development- making sure the children are as ready as they can be for big school. I always felt so happy leaving my daughter in any of the staff's care. I can't recommend Curious Explorers highly enough.

Would recommend to any local parents.

In summary, we can't recommend Curious Explorers highly enough!!

We couldn't be happier with the care our daughter received at Curious Explorers. She spent almost three years progressing from the baby room through to pre-school and she is now thriving and ready for school. The staff are all professional, caring, and fun and the nursery itself is well equipped in a lovely homely setting. I would highly recommend it!

My son attended the baby room of this nursery and absolutely loved it! It is a lovely home-from-home environment which was a great transition for my baby. The staff members were so kind and caring, I always felt at ease when dropping him off. The staff keep you really up to date with what they are up to during the day. Would definitely recommend it.

Thank you, he will miss you all lots!

Wonderful, caring staff characterise this nursery. They must have a low turnover because some of the staff also cared for my eldest several years ago. The baby room is well run with a fantastic range of activities and the garden provision is a highlight. I would not hesitate to recommend Curious Explorers.

My son only attended Curious Explorers for a term and I was worried if it was the right thing to do putting him in a setting for such a short time. The team were fabulous in helping him feel settled and he found lots of new friends to spend time with.

The team were very aware of his interests and playmates and allowed him to transition between two rooms and outside so he could be with his friends.

I really appreciate the effort the owner made to make a space available for my son to attend. She was always a constant face in the nursery and ready with a warm welcome for parents.

My son will be attending school soon and it’s lovely that some of the friendships he has established in the nursery will hopefully continue.

We feel our child has benefitted greatly from attending.

Our daughter has been attending Curious Explorers for the last four weeks and she has settled in very well. The staff are very caring and flexible ensuring that our daughter's individual needs are catered for. The nursery is very clean with great spaces for all ages and the garden is very large and well used which was a key consideration of ours when deciding on a nursery. The staff do all sorts of different activities with the children to deliver a varied and interesting day for them which was another important factor when we were deciding on a nursery. The nursery uses an app called Daily Connect to keep you up to speed with what your child is doing during the day and it is so lovely to see pictures and know what your child is doing and much easier than papers or books at the end of the day.

We are very impressed with the nursery. The staff are friendly and helpful and our children are always keen to attend. There always seems to be a variety of activities each day and both our children are flourishing. We would certainly recommend it.

Both of my boys are extremely happy at Curious Explorers. This is no surprise as the management, staff and environment are outstanding. My boys have flourished and grown in confidence within the caring and positive atmosphere provided by them. I would highly recommend this brilliant nursery and preschool!

We now have our second Child at Curious Explorers, both have been very happy and content. From a parent's perspective, the nursery offers excellent flexibility and is always happy to take on board and action any comments you make. The owners and staff are friendly and professional, and we have seen a consistent effort to improve the nursery and it's facilities. We would recommend the nursery to any of our friends or family.

I have sent my son to Curious Explorers for nearly 2 years now. I would highly recommend anyone in the area to send their children here. The staff are absolutely fantastic! My son has blossomed into such a wonderful child with the help of Curious Explorers. He has learnt a great deal through the activities and genuinely enjoys nursery. 100% recommend.

An outstanding nursery. My son loves going, is happy, well stimulated and continues to develop both socially and mentally. The staff are kind and caring and communicate well. The setting provides everything my son loves and needs! The garden provides great space for playing and even growing their own lunch! Meals are home cooked and even my fussy eater loves them!
