Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My granddaughter has been attending this nursery for three months and absolutely loves going - she has settled in well, loves the staff and started to blossom. She enjoys the reading, games and toys and outdoor play. They have encouraged her independence and is so willing to have a go. She puts on her
jacket, shoes etc. encouraging her to mix and play nicely with other children - Wonderful nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 3-year-old son started Tops Day Nursery in October, I was a little worried at first as he never really settled at his last preschool. He settled in very easily at Tops as the staff are very caring and provide so many interesting and exciting activities for the children to do whilst there. They have
given him so much support with his speech and he has grown in confidence since starting there. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for childcare.

My 2-year-old son started a few weeks ago, we were nervous about how he would find being away from us but the staff have done a brilliant job with him. He now can't wait to go to nursery! It is a great set up, we are glad we chose Tops!

We are over the moon with how our son has settled into Tops! We attended the weekly stay and play sessions which allowed both my son and I an opportunity to become familiar with the nursery and get to know the staff before he started there. I think this helped greatly and we have been so pleased with
how he has settled there. All the staff have been so supportive and the children are really lovely. We are also really impressed with the engaging resources they have and the imaginative learning opportunities the staff come up with for the children! We will definitely be recommending Tops to our friends and family.

My daughter started couple weeks ago now and has settled in very quickly. She has improved on so many levels from being there. I couldn't ask for a more professional, friendly and safe nursey for my daughter, she's always full of conversation when I pick her up which is lovely to see. The staff there
are very helpful and polite. I definitely will be recommending to all my friends and family.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.915)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.915) out of 10 for Tops Day Nurseries: Lymington Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.965 for Tops Day Nurseries: Lymington Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (219 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.965
  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 4.95 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tops Day Nurseries: Lymington Nursery is based on 19 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 19 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.95
  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.
