Also love when they do get together with child and parents e.g. bonfire night. Gives the chance to meet the parents and child in my son's group.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you're happy with the detailed handovers and love the app where you can keep up with your child's day. It's great to know that your child enjoys the days out and park visits - we believe these experiences are so important...
My child loves nursery. There's great care and he has built bonds with many of the team. He loves the variety of activities. He has come on leaps and bounds since joining. The outdoor space is great and he enjoys mealtimes and the great menu.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your child loves nursery and has built such wonderful bonds with our team. It's fantastic to know he's enjoying the variety of activities, and we're so pleased to see his growth and development since joining us. We're glad to hear...
We are very happy with our son's progress so far at Tops. He always goes in with a smile and leaves with lots of cuddles. I will be quite sad when this stage is over and school begins.
That's absolutely wonderful to hear! It sounds like your son is thriving and enjoying his time at Tops. It's natural to feel a mix of emotions as he grows and transitions to the next stage of his education. Cherish these precious moments and remember that every new beginning brings its own set of joys and adventures. We're here to support you and your son every step of the way!
Our daughter has thrived since joining Tops last year, and I cannot recommend the nursery highly enough. The staff, particularly the practitioners in the Explorers Room, are incredible and have helped her to settle in really well. She has become a confident toddler and has learnt so many new skills with the help of the Tops staff (eating better, sleeping better, being able to feed herself independently!), as well as having lots of fun and being able to develop her own interests. The menu is incredible, we get regular updates throughout the day, there's access to a lovely garden, and the opening hours are really convenient. We're so happy that we enrolled our daughter here!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that your daughter has thrived at Tops. Our dedicated staff in the Explorers Room are delighted to have helped her settle in and develop new skills. We appreciate your trust in us and look forward to continuing to support her growth.
Our daughter loves Tops Day Nurseries Wareham and has learnt and grown so much since joining. She loves talking about her key worker and all the staff and other children who are so proud after their trips out, or of her cookery creations. Would recommend it to any local parent.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that your daughter is enjoying her time at Tops Day Nurseries Wareham and that she's been learning and growing so much since she joined us. It warms our hearts to know that she loves talking about her key worker and all the staff,...
Our daughter has just moved up from investigators to preschool and the staff have been amazing in accommodating this change. My daughter loves going and always comes back happy and with a smile on her face, that's a good enough reason for me to highly recommend Tops Day Nurseries: Wareham.
We are thrilled to hear that our staff has been accommodating during this transition, and it warms our hearts to know that your daughter loves...
The staff at Tops Wareham are what makes nursery so wonderful for my daughter. It's warm and welcoming. The balance of play, learning, and activities is excellent. I feel confident leaving her in their capable hands. I can't recommend them more highly.
Creating a warm and welcoming...
Amazing nursery! I have two children who attend Tops Day Nurseries Wareham, one in explorers room and one in investigators and they absolutely love it. Healthy meals, forest school, cooking school, flexible timings. The staff are so amazing and go above and beyond!
Thank you very much for your positive review, we really appreciate it!
My son has been going here for over a year now and has absolutely blossomed from a shy baby into a confident toddler who is willing to try so many new things. The staff are so lovely and genuinely care, it’s obvious that it is more than just a job for them. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to anyone, they are super accommodating, the menu is incredible, they keep you updated on what your child is doing throughout the day and generally help get rid of the mum guilt as he loves going.
Thank you very much for your positive review, we really appreciate it!
We are trying to think of anything to improve and we truly can't. We absolutely love Wareham Tops Nursery and have already sent three friends their way, all of whom praise this nursery too. The staff are what truly makes it extra special. They should be congratulated on creating such a wonderful environment. Thank you all.
Can’t recommend this nursery enough. Initially, I heard from another parent about Tops in Wareham. She was super happy about the hours they offer and the care they provide. They run even through school holidays! For us, as a family with no further family around and two working parents, Tops is a super reliable, flexible and friendly nursery. Both of my kids have been at Tops Wareham from a fairly young age (8 months old.) They settled in with no problem and loved it ever since. The staff are young, super friendly and supportive. Every day they offer freshly cooked food, many different activities to play and new games to explore. Forest School and Cooking school are the highlights of the week. During the second lockdown, Tops was our lifesaver! Thank you so much for all your hard work! It is worth every pound you spend.
The staff go above and beyond for the children. I would recommend the nursery to anyone.
The nursery have been fantastic with my little girl from the moment she joined in January 2021. All staff are kind, caring and passionate about their jobs and really look after the children in their care. The nursery provides a fantastic range of extra activities such as forest school and cooking school. I highly recommend this nursery.
She has so much fun at nursery; she is engaged in all the activities they do, and supported with her interests.
My son also attends Tops, while he was reluctant initially, he now loves going to nursery and enjoys the wide range of activities they do - and the food!
The nursery staff are very friendly and professional. I find the communications on activities almost daily on the system very helpful, so I can see what the children have been doing in the day. The admin staff are also fantastic and will facilitate changes or additional hours where possible.
My child has been attending Tops Day Nurseries: Wareham four days a week since July 2018 and he absolutely loves it. He has made such lovely friends and has close bonds with all the nursery workers. Getting the eyLog observations throughout the week gives me insight into how he spends his time and all the lovely educational activities he takes part in. He has come on leaps and bounds and has turned into such a happy, confident, and cheeky chap. I think his time at nursery has a lot to do with that. The key workers he has had whilst there genuinely care and look after him so well, along with all the other staff. Tops is so lovely and would 100% recommend to anyone with complete confidence.
The setting is unfailing. The staff are caring and provide a fantastic balance of support and independence, for the children to learn and develop through experiences. The extra activities offered by the setting are more than we could have ever hoped for; from exciting trips and fun walks, to cooking and boogie mites which our daughter absolutely loves.
The Tops Team has done so much to shape our daughter into the sparkling young lady that she has become and we would like to give particular mention to everyone in the team who has worked with our daughter, thank you! We are relocating in the coming months and will be extremely sad to say goodbye.
I absolutely love being able to see what she’s up to through the day while I’m at work on the parent app.
My daughter is excited to go inside and see her friends and I can see how much her confidence has grown and her development is amazing. Tops always has new and interesting activities for her to enjoy.
My daughter has nursery lunches which she really enjoys and I know these are nutritious from the menus that are emailed out each term.
Communications from Tops are also fab and very clear. The person that does all the admin is fantastic at her job and is very knowledgeable.
I highly recommend this nursery to anyone that wants to listen.
My son has the best time at Tops Day Nurseries: Wareham Nursery! All the nursery teachers are so lovely and make him and me feel so special! He loves forest school and walking into town! They do some extra special activities with all the kids and create such a lovely and fun environment for them! My second child will be joining them in the summer!
This is now my second child at Tops Wareham and once again the staff are amazing for different reasons. My son has always been more clingy than my daughter but they are amazing at getting him occupied, so it’s easier for both me and him when I drop him off. He has also been a lot slower but his progress in all aspects of learning have just skyrocketed since attending the nursery setting here. I would always recommend Tops Wareham as a must see for a nursery setting, they have all been amazing.
Both my boys have been at Tops Day Nurseries Wareham since they were 1. They settled in with no problem and always have so much fun there especially at Forest school. I can’t praise the staff enough. I feel happy and confident leaving my little ones in their care and they all seem to have a genuine affection for the children. It’s great that the nursery is so eco-friendly and teach the children the importance of looking after the environment. They also provide excellent meals so I know they have eaten a hearty and healthy meal there. 10 out of 10.
