Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son and my daughter attended this nursery and my daughter still goes here. They absolutely love their time at Pippa's House! The staff are friendly and supportive and always look after them with care and attention, while encouraging their early development. My son got close to two staff members in
particular and they have been a great key worker for my daughter. Thank you to all the team for doing such a great job!

My son has been attending the nursery since it opened, I've seen him grow in confidence and learn so many new skills and a large part of this is due to the amazing staff at the nursery that make him feel comfortable and confident!
I love that he can be somewhere whilst I'm working where I have zero
worries and know he's having an amazing time.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Since my daughter joined Pippa's House she has come on leaps and bounds. When she first started she was struggling with speaking and building relationships now 6-7 months down the line she's a non-stop chatter box, says hello to everyone even when out in public.
Everyone at the nursery is so lovely
and accommodating and so understanding. I always get a brilliant handover from the staff. I would like to say thank you to a particular member of staff especially, my daughter took to her on her first day which made the whole process a lot easier, especially as an anxious mum, I can't really say much apart from she is just amazing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Pippa's House have been exceptional in transitioning my 18 month old daughter from being with me consistently from birth to two days a week at nursery. The process has been seamless, they care for my daughter so beautifully, and she has made incredible bonds with the staff there, particularly with a
specific member of staff!
We look forward to a long relationship with Pippa's House as my daughter grows, and trust them to work with us to get her ready for every next step we meet along the way.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended Pippa's since they opened, he loves it there.
My wife was nervous originally, about sending him as she didn't want to be separated from him but he almost immediately loved it and was excited as we arrived.
He loves seeing five particular members of staff who are all very friendly.
When
his younger brother is old enough he will hopefully be joining him at Pippa's.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son transferred to this nursery after only being in his previous nursery for a couple of weeks. He settled into this nursery really easily with the support of the staff. The staff have been incredibly friendly and very communicative. They evidently care for the children very much. My son has come
on leaps and bounds with his social skills and his speech in the few months he has been there. He enjoys going to nursery and is always smiling when I pick him up. I would recommend this nursery to family and friends.
Reply from Holly Sargent, Manager at Pippa's House Nursery Aldershot
What a wonderful thing to read, thank you for your review of our nursery, we are so glad your son has settled so well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son really enjoys Pippa's House and is always excited and go in and is still a happy chappy when we collect him. All the staff are very welcoming and polite and always being so kind about how he is as a child. We are always given details at pick up with how he has been and what he has been up to.
Our son moved up to the Pre-school room recently and the staff and other children have welcomed him with open arms and he has taken very well to the change.
Small area for improvements are more updates on the app including food, toilet, activities. Also, I appreciate we are not there all day so do not see everything but at drop off and collection I notice children are usually off doing their own thing so I'd like to see more adult lead skills, games, educational activities and story time.
Overall we have had a great experience so far and it's really lovely to know your child is happy and being well looked after. Special shout out to two particular members of staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Pippa's House back in August. Over the past 3 months, he has come on leaps and bounds, the staff in the baby room are amazing. He can not wait to start his day and when I arrive to collect him, he's usually so busy playing he doesn't even notice I'm there.
The app they use is great
I know exactly when he has eaten, how long his naps are and the pictures they upload of his daily activities makes me so happy to know he's enjoying his day.
Big shout out to all the staff, especially the management who greet you everyday with a huge smile, and all the staff in the baby room especially his key person, who my son adores.

Review from Faruk S (Father of Child) published on 22 November 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My family just moved to the area and enrolled our son in the nursery, big change for him considering he has been out of nursery for nearly half a year as we took him out of his previous nursery earlier in the year in anticipation we are moving to our new home, which sadly got delayed for months. He
has had some difficulties settling in due to all the changes going on with him, the nursery was very quick to identify that and immediately proposed a longer settling-in session which has so far gone very well. Overall, he really likes his nursery, he loves hanging out with kids in his class, the staff are very nice and management is doing a good job running the nursery. Still early into his journey but so far I am happy with the nursery and how my son is adapting to the new environment.
Reply from Bethany Powell, Marketing Director at Pippa's House Nursery Aldershot
Thank you so much for the review Faruk. Big changes can be hard for children but we are here to try and make them as easy as possible.

Great nursery, staff are very friendly. My son didn't settle for a good month but they worked really hard to help him settle in. The nursery has great activities and do different activities. My son did not like going to the nursery before but now he loves to go. This shows a lot of the quality of care
the staff provide.
Reply from Bethany Powell, Marketing Director at Pippa's House Nursery Aldershot
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review Sharuka. We were more than happy to help your son settle; some children just take a little longer to feel comfortable.

My son has just completed his first month at Pippa's House, and what a change we have observed in him! The staff from day one emphasise helping each other and supporting one another and it's had such a positive impact on my son, it took him no time to settle in and find his place within the room and
it's so nice to see how happy he is on the off chance I get to see him before he sees me on collection!

My son transferred here after nearly 2 years at a different nursery and I cannot believe the difference in him! He is so happy, settled and the team really got to know him very quickly and understand him giving me the confidence to know he's being cared for so well. All the team members seem like they
want to be there and it's such a happy feel-good environment when you walk in. The nursery itself is beautiful and so clean! So so happy with the whole package, can't recommend them enough!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.947)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.947) out of 10 for Pippa's House Nursery Aldershot 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 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.947 for Pippa's House Nursery Aldershot is calculated as follows: ( (375 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 396 Ratings = 4.947
  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 Pippa's House Nursery Aldershot is based on 33 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 110 number of registered child places is 22, which has been reached with 33 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.
