Review from Amy (Mother of Child) published on 12 May 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Tops for four years, from the age of six months. The staff are always caring, kind and keen to build on his development. They really treat him as an individual and have come up with an individual care plan to stretch him beyond the normal early years curriculum. He has become confident and sociable and has been prepared well for starting school. The flexibility in booking hours and support that Tops has provided for keyworkers during Covid has been amazing. I would highly recommend Tops to anyone.

Overall Experience

A big thank you to all the staff at Tops Winchester for taking such good care of my daughter for the last 3 years. It was a weight off my shoulders knowing that she was safe, happy and looked after by people who genuinely care. She has made many friends and learned a lot whilst being there - I was in fact very impressed by her number recognition the other day which I know was down to the staff at Tops taking the time to teach her. The manager and his team are wonderful.

My daughter loves it there. The staff are fantastic and really care. There are constantly changing different activities for the children to take part in and they go on lots of trips and visits out. The hours are extremely flexible which works well for us and they are so accommodating.

The staff are excellent and know my daughter really well. She is so happy there. We couldn’t be happier with Tops Winchester and plan to send our younger child when he’s old enough too.

Review from G Mc (Mother of Child) published on 27 February 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Tops Winchester is a wonderful nursery with a team of amazing people both in the childcare rooms and behind the scenes in the office. Many of the staff have been there since my son started in 2015 and my daughter continues to enjoy the care and support they offer now. There is always something fun going on at the nursery. The children are continually learning, engaged and enjoying themselves.
I highly recommend Tops to anyone but particularly those who need flexibility with hours. I'm not aware of another childcare setting that offers the range of hours and services that Tops do.

Keep up the great work!

Overall Experience

My son has only just started going here yet his bond with his key worker is amazing, they are easy to speak to in handovers and always trying to help. The nursery is easily flexible to our needs and always willing to make thing easier for myself. My son's speech has improved massively and he's always happy to go off to play.

The staff are so attentive, patient and understanding that deciding on a nursery and leaving your child in their care is such a big deal for parents! Nothing is ever too much trouble and I can relax at work knowing my child is happy, content and his needs are met (with lots of lovely cuddles!). Thank you, Tops Winchester.

Tops has helped my son develop greatly from a child who couldn't talk. Now he loves talking and exploring. He is very clever and they help him in many different ways.

Since my son has been going to the nursery he has come on in leaps and bounds with his development. All the staff go above and beyond for him and are always happy and willing to help if needed.

My son has attended Tops Winchester for the last two years and I cannot praise the staff highly enough. He loves it so much and has developed a strong bond with all the staff there, making many friends. The activities are varied, he loves Forest School. Updates via the parent app are fantastic. Communication is excellent between staff, management and parents.

Overall Experience
Tops Day Nursery (Winchester) has been just amazing for both my daughter and I. My daughter absolutely loves it, the staff are incredible, so kind, caring and creative, my daughter has grown such a lovely bond with her key worker as well as the other staff members. They are always coming up with new activities for the children and the cooking school is one of my daughter's favourites. My daughter is always telling me new things she has learnt and I get updated regularly with pictures/videos or messages to show me what she’s up to.

I would highly recommend this nursery.

Winchester Tops Nursery are fantastic. They are always so understanding and flexible in terms of hours and payments which makes my job as a parent much easier. My son absolutely loves it at Tops Winchester and has progressed all the way through to pre-school now. Tops Nursery has been integral to his development and we are looking forward to the next couple of years with them.

Overall Experience

Incredible nursery, friendly welcoming staff and wonderful sustainability plan. The staff always greet us with a smile, friendly and thoughtful. They always go the extra mile to help when needed. My daughter fitted straight in - runs in without even saying goodbye now. They encourage outdoor play and interaction, the key to a balanced day away from screens. Simply outstanding.

Review from Christina P (Mother of Child) published on 24 September 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started at Tops when she was ten months old and I went back to work. She developed great relationships with the adults there and also made great friendships. Being at Tops made her very sociable and she has easily adjusted to big school because of it. As working parents, we really appreciated the flexibility provided at Tops. Our daughter loved the activities on offer, such as cooking school and forest school and day trips out. Would highly recommend to working parents who want peace of mind.

Overall Experience

I cannot recommend Tops Winchester enough. They have been absolutely amazing taking care of our daughter. The 15 minute time slots worked really well for me with my work hours and I found them to offer better opening hours for our circumstances than other nurseries. Staff were always friendly and accommodating to our needs. My daughter loved going to pre-school and is really missing all the staff and her friends now that she is in big school.

Review from Susie N (Mother of Child) published on 24 September 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both our kids thrived at Tops Winchester. The staff were always friendly, involved, concerned and responsive - always on the same level as the children and supporting them to learn and grow in a safe and caring way. Flexible shift booking hours mean you pay for only what you need - which worked really well with our flexible jobs, saved a lot of money compared to the strict half day/full day policy you find everywhere else. Progress report notifications through the online App made me smile at work every day!

Diversity policy is great - encourage different languages/gender equality from an early age. Environment Focus - through Forest School and outdoor activities in the garden made happy kids. They support independence (combined with encouraging kind attitudes and good manners), learn about healthy eating, make their own food through Cooking School, brush their own teeth after lunch etc.

I cried when my youngest left - it gave our kids the best start. Would whole-heartedly recommend.

Review from S K (Mother of Child) published on 19 September 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both our girls were at Tops from six months and we were always very happy with the care and education they received. The staff are dedicated and approachable and have a very can-do attitude. The flexible hours and booking system was a godsend as we work irregular shifts, and I never worried about the children while I was at work. They were both happy and safe. I have recommended Tops to all our friends with similar childcare needs. The food was great, healthy but appealing and with a wide adventurous variety. Forest school and cooking school are well worth the small extra cost, I would highly recommend both.

Overall Experience
Our son has just left, having been at Tops for over 4 years. He has been so well cared for and has learnt so much during his time here. From the very start, we always felt like he was safe with you and he has been extremely happy. You should all be very proud of Winchester Tops and the way you look after the children.

The staff are lovely, kind and caring. They smiled and made our son feel at ease every time we dropped him off. And he developed such a close bond with his key worker. Thank you so much for looking after him. We will miss you!
