Review from Jonathan D (Father of Child) published on 3 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Really happy with every aspect of this nursery. The staff are always extremely helpful and professional with whatever needs we have. Every member of staff I have come across is friendly and welcoming. My son really enjoys his time and continues to take big steps forward in his development thanks to
the nursery. The food is excellent; interesting and healthy (he eats everything!). I also really like how well informed with updates of what he has been up to during the day with pictures and comments on the online eyLog system. The nursery has also been incredibly helpful with altering bookings and adding extra days at short notice which has made life so much easier. Really happy with every aspect of the service.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son has been going to Tops Nursery Wareham branch for more than 18 months and he loves going to nursery. The staff are very professional, friendly and helpful. They have helped him to settle very quickly into nursery.
The snacks, lunches and tea are delicious and my son always finishes off his
plate. I will definitely recommend this nursery to anyone who needs a safe, happy, caring and great learning environment for their child.

Our son has attended Tops for the last 2 years, graduating from explorers to investigators. The staff are fabulous, blending fun with learning and emotional development. He looks forward to the activities and spending time with his group of friends. We very much welcome the flexibility offered by
Tops, which supports modern family life.

Review from Tatiana (Mother of Child) published on 17 December 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved my daughter to this nursery in 2014 mostly for logistical reasons, were happy with her previous nursery and so were slightly nervous. However we are so pleased we did move her. The staff are warm, friendly and excellent with her and us. Occasional family days out enable us working parents
to get to know the wider group and our daughter has flourished in the smaller, calm environment. Initiatives like football and forest school are superb. We wholeheartedly recommend Tops in Wareham.

Review from Steve P (Father of Child) published on 16 December 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is an outstanding nursery.
My daughter is 15 months old and in the explorers unit. The staff are welcoming, friendly and always go out of their way to welcome us into the unit with a smile on the face.
The room is a calming environment but the activities are bright bold and fun!
My daughter
comes home in clean clothes (messy clothes in her bag) but this always shows me she has had a good day!


I love eylog with the observations, photos, videos and daily reports all telling me about my daughter's day!


I would never hesitate to recommend this nursery school to a friend!

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.030)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.030) out of 10 for Tops Day Nurseries: Wareham Nursery 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 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 4.792 for Tops Day Nurseries: Wareham Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (58 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.792
  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 4.238 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tops Day Nurseries: Wareham 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 47 number of registered child places is 9.4. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.4 = 0.638
  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.
