Our boy has had two and a half very happy years at Burpham Nursery, watching him grow and develop in the capable hands of the Christopher Robin team has been a genuine joy. We are delighted to transfer from one Christopher Robin Nursery to another, following a house move. Thank you to the wonderful
team at Christopher Robin, would highly recommend.

My daughter settled well. I love the photos and observations. The staff are very friendly.
Unfortunately, my daughter was given food containing food that she has an allergy to. The initial problem was with the caterer but staff still need to make sure they double-check the meals before being given
to the children with allergies.
The manager is always super helpful and positive.

Reply from Christopher Robin Day Nurseries, Manager at Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham

Thank you for submitting a review; we appreciate your feedback and comments regarding our staff team and nursery manager.
Please accept our most sincere apologies for the error made with your daughter's dietary requirements; we know that the nursery team were extremely upset to have made this error and have personally apologised, however, we fully accept that this is something that should not have happened. Since the incident, we have made changes to our nursery food/dietary check procedures to ensure that as far as we are able the probability of human error is mitigated. These procedures have also recently been reviewed, updated and are in place across all our settings.
Once again, we apologise; thank you for being a part of our nursery community and we wish you and your family the very best for the future.

Our daughter joined Christopher Robin Burpham when we moved to the area aged 20 months. She couldn’t have been happier over the last 2.5 years, making lots of friends. The team have supported her every step of the way with a wide range of educational activities and play making sure she is ready for
the transition to school. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

I was apprehensive about my daughter starting nursery at eight months, however after all those sleepless nights of worry I should not have worried. We are now two months into the journey and they have made both me and my daughter feel completely at ease. The girls in piglets are kind, caring, friendly
and genuinely care about the well-being of you, your family and most importantly your child. I have noticed so much progression in my daughters development and she is really striving! I would not hesitate to recommend!

We decided we wished our daughter to start nursery from 6 months old. The team at Christopher Robin Day Nursery couldn’t have been more helpful to prepare us for our first sessions and they helped us prepare for dropping our very little bundle of joy off with them. Our daughter has really thrived in
this nursery setting and now she is a bit older she reaches out at the door of nursery each morning and can’t wait to go inside.

Our daughter has been at Christopher Robin Day Nursery for the last few years and our younger child is due to start. The standard of care has been fantastic. Our daughter loves the staff and has really grown in confidence. There is an impressive range of activities each day and she gets plenty of time
outdoors. She always looks forward to going each day and has made lots of friends. The nursery has been brilliant at helping accommodate her allergies as well. I can definitely recommend this nursery.

My son settled in beautifully at this nursery, the staff got to know him very quickly and helped so much in the transition into a nursery setting for him. Amazing facilities, great food and the staff are just wonderful. This means I go to work with complete confidence that my son is having a great time
and allows me to focus on my role. The nursery always provides lots of different activities to stimulate and they have a really good time. The communication is great and the online snapshot of their day is a lovely addition so you can see what they have been doing as well as their sleep/food intake etc.
Would really recommend this nursery to anyone.

My son has just left Christopher Robin Day Nursery after spending a year there. Unfortunately, we had to move to a different area otherwise we would never have left!
We can't thank the manager and all the staff of Piglets and then Kangas enough.
My son has come on so much in the year he spent at
Christopher Robin. I can't recommend this nursery setting highly enough. He has improved in every aspect of development.
This was the first time my son was cared for by someone out of the family. My wife and I were apprehensive at first but our son settled easily and the communication from the staff and other facilities they have available where you can check in helped put us at ease straight away. After a while, they all felt part of our family. Thanks again all.

Our son started at Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham when he was 9 months old. I cannot sing their praises enough, from the start they have been nothing but brilliant. The last two years have been incredibly testing for everyone but especially the childcare industry and I was hugely impressed
at how well the nursery managed to cope during bouts of staff and child sickness, all the time remaining open. Throughout this time, the utmost care has been given to our son and he has flourished in a wonderfully nurturing environment. I'm confident that he is the character he is today in large part due to the great team here at Christopher Robin - Burpham. Thank you all - cannot recommend this nursery highly enough!

My daughter has been at Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham for two years. We absolutely love this nursery and she feels so happy there. I always pick her up with a big smile on her face. All the team are so friendly and always willing to help. She developed many skills and her speech is so good
now as we speak a different language at home. Her little brother is starting soon as well and we are very excited about it!
Fantastic place for kids!

Our 18-month-old son has been at Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham since April and has settled in really well. The staff are all lovely and he happily goes to each of them every morning, waves us goodbye and heads straight in for breakfast. We get photos each day of what he's been up to - which
always varies and an update on how well he has eaten, naps and nappies. The team are always happy to discuss his needs at pick up or drop off, be it a new nap schedule or encouraging him to use a spoon. Since joining we have attended one stay and play session where we got to go into the Piglets room and see what a normal afternoon looks like and also attended the summer family day. Would highly recommend.

When my wife and I first looked around Christopher Robin Day Nursery Burpham back in early 2019 we immediately felt that it was the perfect nursery to send our child. Over the past two and a half years, it has been lovely to watch our daughter grow into a confident little girl with such energy and passion.
We very much understand and appreciate that her being at Christopher Robin with the incredible staff, has helped her flourish and grow.

My daughter joined Cristopher Robin Day Nursery aged 1 year and 2 months and finished it this month to go to school in September. We were very happy with the nursery. It is flexible on drop-off and pick-up times, staff are always very friendly and caring, my daughter loved her teachers, the outside
space is great and I was always amazed at the number of activities they did from drawing to baking, building and creative play. There is a lot of good messy stuff going on that I would never do at home, but kids really enjoy it. My daughter learned a lot of things in the nursery: counting, colours, basic table manners, French and recently how to write her name. A very good and reliable nursery through Covid and all, I would recommend it, especially if your child will then go to Burpham School as they will already know half their class.

Both of my children have been through the nursery from 2018 to 2022, and I highly recommend it. From my eldest's first day to my youngest's last day, we felt part of a wider family. The staff are excellent, friendly, caring and very knowledgeable. I had complete trust that my children were well cared
for whilst having great fun and learning a lot. The garden is wonderful and an amazing space for the kids to burn off energy. A lovely start for my girls before school.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.922)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.922) out of 10 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.922 for Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham is calculated as follows: ( (456 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 489 Ratings = 4.922

  • b) 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 Christopher Robin Day Nursery - Burpham is based on 41 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 41 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
