My child enjoys her time at nursery and is excited to go in the morning. Leaving sometimes makes her grumpy. Overall happy and settled at nursery.

Tops Charminster has been amazing. The care and communication are always brilliant. The High Fives club has kept them fully entertained. Tops will always have my full recommendation.

Review from Jemma C (Mother of Child) published on 21 December 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended this nursery for the last 2 years and from the moment he started I've felt confident that he is safe and happy in their care. The staff are simply amazing, friendly and competent and make this nursery what it is. My son is always happy to go in and I know they do a variety of activities and kept up to date with his learning journey and photos via the app. I will be sad for him to leave this amazing team and his friends when he has to go to school next year. Thank you Tops Charminster team for making the start of his education a brilliant one.

Review from Chloe R (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son who is 2 and a half has been going to Tops Charminster Nursery since February 2020. It is a lovely nursery who have been brilliant throughout these difficult times.
My son loves going to nursery and is making friends. The staff are lovely and the flexibility of the centre is a bonus for us.
The outside space is limited however my son still loves it and pre-covid they had forest clubs and more frequent outings which I know he would love too.

They have helped with potty training and I love that they play with recycled items and use their imagination in play.

Review from Karen (Mother of Child) published on 27 February 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I was initially apprehensive in enrolling my daughter at Tops Charminster but now I'm so we did!
She has attended since Nov 18, progressing through investigators into preschool and absolutely loves it! She is becoming a confident, chatty and quick-witted little girl, in no small part owing to the fantastic staff at Tops Charminster!
She is constantly stimulated and takes part in many of the additional activities that Tops offer.
The online learning journal provides a great insight into weekly life at nursery and is updated frequently, showing her progress.

Overall, a lovely setting with lovely staff, couldn't be happier!

Review from Vanessa M (Mother of Child) published on 21 February 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter started at Tops Charminster in September 2019. She was used to a more intimate childcare setting, having been going to a childminder prior to Tops, so I was concerned about how the transition would go. I cannot praise Tops highly enough! My daughter loves going there four days per week and the number of skills she has picked up is amazing. At home, my daughter is often singing new songs she has learnt at Tops and impressing us with new vocabulary.
I love everything about Tops approach to natural play and learning plus their ethos on educating children about our environment and sustainability. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming, and as a shift worker, their approach to accommodating flexible childcare is second to none.

Top marks for Tops Charminster!

Review from Isabella T (Mother of Child) published on 21 February 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child moved from another Tops Nursery and it took a while to adjust, during which time the staff at Charminster did their very best to support the transition. My only hope is that Tops Charminster would be able to update the outside area of the nursery to ensure all ages are stimulated with more varied activities. I have since changed jobs but wouldn't dare move my child to a different tops nursery, even if it would allow for an easier morning commute. I am especially pleased to learn of the new sling method that Tops has adopted, as an African parent this would really support my parenting style and increase the likelihood of enrolling our next child before their first year birthday.
