Friendly and welcoming nursery in Chineham

The purpose-built Chineham Day Nursery and Preschool is located in Chineham Business Park and provides high-quality care and education for children aged 3 months to 5 years.

The nursery benefits from having a large indoor activity hall for your child to explore, an art studio and a dedicated children's kitchen. With the benefit from the use of a bright, well-lit, building, there is a large garden for children to enjoy. The expansive garden has been divided up to give each room access to their own age-specific green space.

Children also have use of an indoor playing hall complete with bikes, giving them plenty of choice in their physical pursuits.

Safety is their number one priority. All practitioners are First Aid trained and all nurseries have specialist SEND staff for children who require additional support due to special educational needs.
All-inclusive fees mean that you have less to pack on a busy morning, with everything from healthy lunches and snacks to branded nappies and wipes included.

The nursery in Chineham is perfect for both local and commuting families, within easy access of Basingstoke Town Centre, the M3 and the A33.

The long-standing team would love to meet you and your little one, so book a visit today and they will show you everything the nursery has to offer during your own personal tour.

Review from S C (Mother of Child) published on 7 November 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Always been fantastic with my children but my eldest has just started school and both him and the other children from his nursery all seem far better prepared and are doing really well with reading. I really believe the teaching the nursery did at preschool level especially (and particularly the Oxford
Reading Tree books they encourage you to help the kids read too) has made a big difference. The staff all seem to really care and are lovely to boot!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at the beginning of September. She struggled a little to settle in to begin with, but the staff in her room were amazing with her and now she loves going to nursery and names all of her carers as we get ready in the morning. She then goes in really happily, blows me a kiss and says
'bye Mummy' - I couldn't be happier with this nursery.

Such a friendly and loving environment. I love the balance of caring discipline and fun and am so impressed by all the staff. My son loves the nursery and I have great trust in the team. He's been in three 'rooms' over the years and we're consistently happy with all the staff who demonstrate genuine
affection for all the children.

Excellent nursery & preschool with friendly staff who provide a great & safe environment for child development & care.
My eldest child attended from 9 months until 4.5 years (for school) and the whole experience was great for her and us as parents. My second child is part way through her experience
and loves every minute.

The staff have been very good at supporting my requests such as potty training. They have worked alongside me to provide my daughter with the best support as she started potty training at 18 months. They have also helped my daughter's speech as she wouldn't talk but now has the confidence and won't
stop!

My son has been with the nursery for 18 months now and we are very happy with the experience he has had. In the last month, there have been a few changes to staff in his current room, which has unsettled him when being dropped off. Carers have been excellent with him in all 3 rooms that he has been
in.

My daughter attends for three days and always enjoys her time here which makes it easier for me as a parent to know she is happy and safe whilst I am at work. She gets involved in lots of activities whist here and generally eats all her food.

My dealings with nursery have been positive at all times. Install sense of responsibility into the children in their care. Always playing outdoors. Children love show and tell days, ballet and other activities.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.139)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.139) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 8 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.969 for Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.969
  2. 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 4.17 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Chineham Park Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 8 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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 = 3.8
    2. 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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.37
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

My name is Meghan and my Bright Horizons journey started in December 2021. I started working in Nurseries after discovering my passion for early years, exploring how children learn and develop through play.
