Review from Wendy D (Mother of Child) published on 22 March 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent facilities being that it is purpose built and relatively new, it feels modern, bright, clean and great flow between indoors and outdoors from all rooms. Good segmentation of children by age/development. The staff on the rooms are without exception excellent, friendly and attentive. They strike
a good balance between being patient and supportive, but also educational. nice range of activities on offer, and great weekend events at Xmas, summer fayre, etc. Quite a few daytime opportunities too, like Valentine's breakfast, Mother's Day tea party.
The only constraint is that the nursery is so over subscribed that getting an occasional day when required is next to impossible. Very frustrating when work is busy and you have no family on your doorstep.
I am also surprised that they do not offer 'parents evening' like other nurseries. That said, I know I can ask for a review at any point so not a major concern. Maybe it happens with later age groups than my 2 year old.

Review from Laura M (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Very happy with the transition to the next room, child settled quickly and development and growth noticeable. Staff do all they can to accommodate e.g when our child was struggling to sleep extra measures and use of blanket from home was welcomed and encouraged. The staff in the room have a lovely connection
with the kids and make the room a fun happy learning environment. We have however experienced a number of key worker changes and room manager changes difficult to get continuity and a feeling that one single person is concentrating on our child.

Since my daughter has been at Kids Unlimited her development and confidence has been remarkable. She started at 9 months old and is now two and a half. Her transition from room and key person has been remarkable and since moving into investigators, her communication has come on leaps and bounds and
she now has a relationship with all the workers and isn't phased when someone new comes into the room. Her bond with her key person is valuable and communication to myself is also fantastic.

Church Crookham Kidsunlimited is a lovely place for children to be. My son enjoys his stay and activities here every day. They have free access to the garden which enables them to explore the outside whenever they want. The staff here are very friendly and helpful. My son established relationships with
his key persons very quickly. They are very pro-active at solving problems as well. My sons key person made books for us to use at home to help with meal and sleep routine and Christmas period as well. I feel very comfortable dropping my son here every day knowing he will enjoy his day here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our child has been at this nursery since a year old. He's now 4.. The staff's nurturing care is excellent. They not only put your child at ease on their early days of attending but the put the parent at ease too. Contact at any point during the day is encouraged. As our child has grown and developed
he's moved up through each class and we see the nursery as extended family. He's also an excellent learning environment. Group activities inside and outside, one to one learning and attention, P.E and French too! Thank you all the staff for your love, care and constant attention.

Very caring and friendly atmosphere with lots of new ideas all the time on how to delight the children. For example leading up to Christmas there was a naughty elf who came out each night and left a trail of paint/flour/etc for the children to discover the next morning.

This nursery is lovely! From our first visit where there was a welcome sign on the door to my daughters first day where I was given a little care package they could not be more thoughtful. The staff are so friendly and polite and the nursery itself is amazing! Great facilities for all ages and everything
has been well thought through.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little one loves this nursery. She has been going since 5 months and cannot wait to go every day. All the staff are lovely and they know every single child/baby which go there full or part time, even if they don't belong in their respective age groups. The whole set up of the nursery is geared to
make the kids confident and learn whilst having fun. Our little one has just started French lessons in addition to her weekly "stretch and grow", both which she thinks is great. She comes home most weeks with a culinary achievement. The nursery are very charity focused and hold many events throughout the year and encourage parents to get involved. The nursery has accommodated our wishes concerning our little one's routine and have helped us through the usual rough and tumbles. Our child's development is key and we genuinely believe she wouldn't get much better anywhere else.

Review from RL (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our oldest child started at this nursery when he was 7 months old and it had only just opened - the moment we walked in we knew that we wanted a place, lots of light, cleverly designed with lots of free flow into the garden. Three years on and our second child has also started and we didn't hesitate
to put their name down. Whilst the building is fantastic, all on one level for a start, the staff are outstanding. The relationships and interactions with the children is amazing and the atmosphere is one of encouragement and development. Changes to the way the preschool works at the nursery have been positive with children having PE and Show and Tell days to help with the transition to school and a great idea to implement. I will be very sad when my oldest leaves but happy in the knowledge that the time spent here will have set them in good stead for school. I would strongly recommend anyone wanting to send their children to a nursery to put the names down as soon as possible.

I have two children at Kids Unlimited Church Crookham and both absolutely LOVE it there. The teachers are all top class and the facilities and range of activities planned for the children are wonderful. There is never a morning my two don't want to go to nursery. I would highly recommend the school.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.908)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.908) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Church Crookham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.908 for Bright Horizons Church Crookham Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 239 Ratings = 4.908
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Church Crookham Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 20 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 87 number of registered child places is 17.4, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.

Danielle

Job Title: Deputy Manager

After a career change, she returned to university and achieved her PGCE in Primary Education in 2014. She then spent nearly 10 years teaching in the Early Years.


In May 2023, she decided to step sideways into the day nursery setting—a new challenge with much to learn and an opportunity to share her teaching experience. She has always loved working with children, and what she values most about Bright Horizons is the family feel and the genuine care shown to both children and families.


She began her journey with Church Crookham as the Third in Charge and enjoyed being part of a team dedicated to ensuring every child was loved, had fun, and excelled in their learning. In October 2023, she was promoted to Deputy Manager and is excited to continue working with the team, growing stronger together, and learning from one another.


Having her twin girls attend the nursery is an added bonus, allowing them to experience the wonderful day-to-day activities and benefit from such a truly special team. She feels very fortunate.
