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.
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!
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!
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.
We are very happy with Tops nursery. The lovely staff have helped my son to settle quickly. He has gained a lot of confidence and knowledge and also made some friends. Additional activities like cooking and forest school are great. Ladies are always helpful and friendly. The hamster is a nice addition too! I would recommend Tops Charminster nursery to anyone.
I'm so pleased that I chose Tops. My son has absolutely loved attending and always looked forward to going, even got upset on weekends when it was closed. He has made good friends. All the staff are very friendly, professional and helpful. Thank you for all you've done whilst looking after him.
Right from our first visit, we felt very welcome and could see the lengths the staff go to to look after the children, engaging and encouraging them and giving them independence and opportunity to explore.
I will say it's not the fanciest of nurseries but it is homely, nurturing and safe.
I'm so happy my daughter gets to experience everything they do, which helps her learn more about the world. I would recommend you visit and see it through your child's eyes.
Very friendly staff, happy environment. Plenty of toys available, many activities, good variety, outdoor activities are great.
My girls love it here. Learnt so much. You guys have helped them develop and have an excellent team.
Thank you to all the staff!
Nursery's manager is always very helpful with any questions. She is really nice. Staff are very lovely, professional and caring.
The only negative thing I was advised that parents still have to pay minimum 6 hours a week regardless if government funding some (after 3 years of age) which will be the only factor of changing it.
Especially the lady who worked with my son a lot.
Wish I sent all my children here gutted I didn't know about this school sooner. Highly recommended.
I entered my daughter into the Mini Beasts Club over the Easter half term; she thoroughly enjoyed the learning activities they did and the staff were very professional and caring. The rooms were spacious and the security at the nursery was excellent.
My eldest has attended Tops Day Nursery - Charminster for over a year and loves going. The staff are so friendly and she feels comfortable going to any of them. Her younger sister has recently joined too and although in separate rooms they are close by. I really have never had any doubts about not sending my girls to the right place.
My son highly enjoys coming to nursery and loves the outside activities and trips. He starts school in September and I feel confident that he is more than ready for the transition due to the support and care he is receiving at Tops.
My daughter has been attending for approximately 1 month and he has loved his time there which for first-time parents is a big relief. The staff are attentive and engaging ensuring they know what he likes and his speech has come on well already since starting. The staff are also very friendly and helpful and communication is excellent when we have questions. This nursery is a good place for parents who work shifts with 15-minutes start/end times.
My little girl is excited every morning before nursery. She talks about each staff member by name and what she has been doing that day. I am always warmly welcomed as I walk in and am told how my daughter has been that day and what she has been up to. I get along with all the staff who are always happy to listen and answer any questions. Highly recommend this nursery.
I occasionally use 'The Minibeasts' club for my daughter, aged 7. She always has lots of fun, with many different activities on. The staff look after her well and make sure she is settled in well. She will often not want to come home!
She is clearly showing signs of being ready and her speech and reading development is brilliant for her age. She loves coming to nursery and I know that the friendly staff are the reason behind this.
My daughter can be headstrong but the staff deal perfectly with this and I truly feel she is safe and cared for in their hands.
The care given to him and the time the nursery has taken to get to know him is invaluable. My son enjoys nursery and learns so much.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone.
