Review from Leighann W (Mother of Child) published on 12 May 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I moved my son to Tops Fawley in June 2019 and I can say it was a great decision.
He settled well and the girls worked so hard building a relationship with my son working on what he was interested in, now I rarely get a good-bye from him due to his love of being at nursery.


I have seen such a development

in his speech, his interests have broadened and he regularly sings me the songs he’s learnt at nursery.
He’s made so many friends and he truly adores all of the ladies at Fawley. The things he does at nursery from bread making, painting, building large scale models, singing, messy play, teeth brushing and exploring in the garden - the list is endless, I love that they adapt activities to meet every child’s needs and abilities so they all have an experience.
I am kept up to date with everything he does so I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything.

My Niece loves it here. Whenever I pick up or drop off she’s always happy and doesn’t want to leave. The staff are also welcoming and happy. It is a very lovely nursery and I love the curiosity approach of it! I feel like this is a really safe and secure nursery with the pin codes and buzzer.

Have been fortunate enough to visit this nursery on several occasions. Found the staff very friendly and approachable. Children were well cared for with lots of interaction. Children were playing, having fun and laughing, which to means they were happy. What more could you ask for?

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I’m very happy with the Fawley Tops days nursery.
The setting is very pleasant the staff are very welcoming and very informative whenever I need to know anything regarding my son.
My son is always very happy when he comes home with stories to tell of his fun day.
The hand over with the staff is always
very professional and informative.
Also the high fives club now he is older is great for fitting in with my career.
I could not recommend a better setting for my child.

My son has only been going here for 3 weeks and already his vocabulary has massively improved and he is a lot more independent. I’m glad we decided to move him here and would recommend Tops Day Nursery to all my friends and family in the area.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Hands down the best preschool I have seen. Very friendly, helpful staff, an excellent range of activities and experiences, a lovely calm area for the little ones to sleep and a great garden with plenty for the kids to do. My little boy has been there only three weeks but his speech and attitude towards
going to preschool has improved so so much I can’t recommend Tops Fawley enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have never seen a nursery like it! The eco-friendly, wooden layout is perfectly arranged with a lovely homely feel to it. When I first walked in, I instantly knew it was the ideal place for my little boy! Sandpits, books, a mud kitchen and easy access to the outside, he’s in his element! The staff
are lovely and welcoming and with many years of working with children, they certainly know their stuff. The nursery offers flexibility to suit your needs which works great for someone working varied hours. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, it’s a beautiful setting to encourage imaginative play and give your child a safe and happy environment to make new little friends.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.034)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.034) out of 10 for Tops Day Nurseries: Fawley Nursery 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.986 for Tops Day Nurseries: Fawley Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (71 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.986
  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 4.048 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tops Day Nurseries: Fawley Nursery is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 67 number of registered child places is 13.4. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.4 = 0.448
  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.
