Purbrook Day Nursery & Pre-school in Hampshire offers a warm, welcoming, and vibrant environment where children can explore, learn, and grow. Recently refurbished, the nursery boasts beautifully designed interiors that create a modern yet homely atmosphere. Each room is thoughtfully equipped with high-quality resources tailored to the needs of each age group, encouraging children to engage in imaginative play and develop a love for learning.

One of the standout features of Purbrook Day Nursery is its specialised baby unit, designed to provide the youngest children with a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment.

Review from Leeanne (Mother of Child) published on 23 September 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our eldest son attended this nursery for approximately 18 months before he left for school. Our youngest son now attends and has done for 15 months since the age of 1. He loves his time spent there, especially when outside in each of their 2 garden areas. He benefits from the range of activities
offered to him, the opportunity to be physically active but also to partake in more relaxing, but still stimulating, activities. The environment promotes variety, creativity, and imagination from the children.


The staff are approachable, kind and caring and have developed knowledge of our son's individual needs over the time he has been attending.


I have recommended this nursery to friends and will continue to do so.

Reply from Beejal Mistry, Deputy Manager at Purbrook Day Nursery & Pre-schoolThank you, Leeanne, for your kind words. We love to have your son here at our nursery, he never ceases to amaze us with all the new words and skills he has learnt!

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.801) out of 10 for Purbrook Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.801 for Purbrook Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (349 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 396 Ratings = 4.801
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Purbrook Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 32 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 32 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
