Review from H C (Mother of Child) published on 30 June 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our son has been at Tops, Lymington for a year now and we have been really happy with the care and attention that he has been given. We have really missed everyone during the covid-19 pandemic but have been really impressed with how the manager and team have dealt with everything. My daughter will be going when I go back to work and we can't wait for her to enjoy nursery as much as our son does. We would definitely recommend the nursery.

Overall Experience

My eldest has been at Tops Lymington since she was 18 months, she comes home every day with new exciting stories about what they did/ate/learnt. My youngest is in the baby room and has been there for 6 months, she is also very happy while at Tops. Her skills/eating is definitely helped on by the great work the staff do. I am very happy with every aspect of Tops Lymington and so happy that the kids have been able to resume their time there after 10 weeks off for COVID.

Overall Experience

This is a wonderful nursery! The staff are so warm and friendly and have really helped my little boy to settle. We were attracted to the nursery thanks to their philosophy of Early Years Education, as well as their extensive outdoor environment. The nursery offers a range of learning opportunities for children at all ages and stages. We are very happy with the care that our son receives.

Overall Experience

All of the staff at Lymington Tops are lovely. They’ve done so much for my little girl's development and she loves going. Never any tears or fuss and every staff member always greets my daughter by name, with a smile and generally makes her really excited to leave mummy/daddy for a day at nursery. Thank you for being amazing!

Review from K K (Mother of Child) published on 18 October 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My 3.5-year-old and 11-month-old daughters at the time started in May, leaving another nursery to come here as the hours are A* (15min intervals) and the funded hours are taken in a very user-friendly manner, supporting me returning to work.

The manager is absolutely amazing, along with two other staff members, these three give a clear daily update which is so important when leaving your children for such long periods. I would like to see the other staff be more approachable at drop off/pickups as it can be very quiet at times towards parents in both rooms. Another staff member is fab as well! Better updates and I would say extremely likely.

Review from Lucy W (Mother of Child) published on 21 August 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

From the moment I entered into Tops Lymington, I knew it was going to be the perfect environment for my son to come to nursery here. Everyone was so welcoming, helpful and friendly plus wanting to engage with my son (6 months at the time). From the initial settling session to when my son finished at Tops (due to a change in circumstances), his care was 2nd to none. Always happy at nursery and I thank the staff who helped nurture my little boy. His key worker was outstanding.

Overall Experience

We are extremely happy with Tops All Saints in every way. Our daughter enjoys it so much and is developing every day. She did not speak English when starting in Tops but thanks to the excellent and caring staff she adopted very quickly. It helps a lot with the online diary and good communication from the nursery. Makes working days so much easier knowing your child is having a great time with caring staff, fun activities and nice friends around!

Review from Samantha H (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been attending Tops Day Nursery since she was 9 months old and I cannot rate them highly enough. Warm, friendly approachable and easy to talk to staff. Being a first-time mum they put my mind at ease at the daunting task of leaving my child and made the transition smooth for both of us. The |Eylog app is a perfect way to message the nursery and brilliant way for them to inform me of 'firsts', development updates etc throughout the day.

The facilities are more than I could have imagined and there is no shortage of imaginative play. My child has thrived and has developed confidence which has been instilled by all who work there through there careful nurturing. I cannot rate this nursery enough, warm, friendly, professional, clean, enticing.. the list could go on.

Review from Tereza M (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter joined Tops All Saints Lymington in Nov 2017. Being already bi-lingual (but not speaking any word of English), we were a bit worried how the adaptation process would be for her. The staff has been amazingly supportive since the first moment, helping our daughter fit in the class. Already after a couple of weeks, we could see a huge progress.

Our daughter is enjoying all extra-curricular activities provided (cooking & forest school or visits of elderly home). She was able to find new friends and truly loves the teachers. I would recommend Tops to any parent who is looking for a nurturing environment for their children that will also provide many learning opportunities. I also appreciate the frequent updates on daily activities provided by the eLog App and Facebook.

Overall Experience

Our sweet little boy used to be quiet and shy about talking to others outside of the family, the tops staff have really brought him out of himself, he's so much more confident now and a real chatterbox! I used to be really worried about leaving him with someone else when I went back to work but he really loves it there and so it's a huge weight off my shoulders! You can really tell that his key worker genuinely adores him so I couldn't ask for more really!

Review from Kellie F (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Tops nursery is always a happy friendly environment and the staff have been brilliant at helping my young daughter settle in. The children have access to lovely outdoor space whatever the weather which is perfect for my daughter. There are always activities going on that the children can join in if they want to. The children can also join forest school days and cookery classes, my daughter is always really proud to bring home her cooking to share with her sister. The staff always make time to discuss how my daughter's day has been as well as regularly updating the online journal. Communication about updated policies, illnesses and general information is effectively done through email. My daughter is very happy in the environment they provide which in turn makes me feel happy.

Review from Kat W (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff at Tops are really friendly and make sure children have enough stimulation, outside time and cuddles as needed. I chose it for its flexible timings - essential for me as a freelancer, but also for shift workers, or long workers - and green ethos. I love the daily updates via the app. I recommend it to everyone and now several friends children attend too.

I could not be happier that my children attend Tops Lymington. They both love it, they are learning loads, the staff are all helpful and friendly too. I feel confident our children are well looked after. We even have a relative wanting to do a qualification with Tops Lymington!!! A happy busy and educational environment.

Review from L P (Mother of Child) published on 28 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Tops Day Nursery have been undoubtedly the best nursery I have come across for a number of reasons. We have been unfortunate where we have put our child into another outdoor based nursery and have had a very bad experience, to the point where we had to withdraw our child with immediate effect from that nursery.
The previous nursery have shown no interest in resolving the issue or even offering reassurance and support to rectify the situation, so we have left that nursery and don't know why we didn't come to Tops Day Nursery in the first instance!
Well.. we have been absolutely blown away with Tops Day Nursery - Lymington All Saints! I was in a state of extreme worry about sending our child to another nursery and anxious we would have the same happen here, anything but! We both work full time and asked whether there was any space at Tops Day Nursery - Lymington All Saints and they fitted us in immediately!

Arranged their settling in sessions for the same day and wrote a full assessment! Highly recommend Tops Day Nursery - Lymington All Saints over anywhere else, thank you girls!
