Our two children went from the nest to preschool 2 over a total seven year period with a small overlap in 2021. We've been delighted with the fantastic career, education and flexibility that Tops have offered over this time. Of particular note are the messy play and on hot days, water play that they have really enjoyed. Their preschool time has prepared them for school really well and they have had a thorough grounding in letters and numbers which complements what we are practising at home. The bonfire night party and graduation ceremony are special memories with lots of staff effort to make them fantastic. Thank you! Forest school also brilliantly ambitious and adventurous!

Both of our children have graduated with Tops in the last couple of years, having both been in their care since 9/10 months old. What a wonderful experience they have both had! The kind and attentive staff have supported them to thrive. Our children have enjoyed learning through play that has been targeted to their interests and have always been so excited to tell us about their day. Throughout the years they have loved trips out to the Oceanarium, Yoga, Boogie Mites and Forest School - so many opportunities to grow. Our children have both left confident, writing their names and ready and excited for reception. The biggest of thank yous Tops - we will miss you!
