September 5, 2024 at 5:15 pmShe consistently skips to the door at drop-off and comes out with a smile on her face when she is picked up. The preschool provides kids with the opportunity to participate in extra activities e.g. pony parties and more recently a trip to the Country Park which was enjoyed by everyone. The team are very welcoming and welcoming. Would definitely suggest. My daughter has spent the last year at Burghclere and has loved her time there.

September 7, 2024 at 3:15 pmThe team are remarkable; they are attentive and welcoming. She loves her days at pre-school and looks forward to going in. It is reassuring to know she is in secure hands and enjoys her time there. My daughter started this term at the pre-school and she has quickly settled in.

September 29, 2024 at 7:29 amThey do so many things and she loves coming home to tell us about them – a recent favourite one, releasing their butterflies and the new sandpit she absolutely loves!
I never have to worry when she is there, I know she is well looked after and having enjoyable!
My son also went here before primary and still misses it now and often asks to go back! My daughter has been with Burghclere Preschool for the past year and a half and absolutely loves it, the team are incredible and so great with her.

October 13, 2024 at 5:36 pmThey have a big selection of toys and activities to keep them entertained and interested throughout the day. The kids have had a selection of activities throughout the year, such as a farm visit and Easter hunt. We will be sad to leave and suggest the setting. My kids have loved being at this Pre School and are warmly greeted by the team every day.

October 21, 2024 at 5:23 amTeam took the time to understand his anxieties and made allowances to help him settle, he went in when we arrived rather than waiting til 9 by which point he was in a stew. He has since settled beautifully, goes in with a smile and comes out beaming. He’s grown in self‑assurance and I will be sad when he leaves. Fantastic little preschool, can’t suggest enough! My little boy joined in September 2022 and was very nervous and anxious to begin with.

October 27, 2024 at 6:23 pmExactly what we were after.
The manager and her team really care about each kid!
They have so many incredible experiences! So far, they’ve had ponies visit them, a police riot van come to visit so the kids could look inside and ask questions and a musician come and show them and playtime her Saxophone, flute and cello for the kids.
What more could you want for a preschool?
They accept 30 hours which has made a huge difference for us as working parents. A excellent find for us over in Inkpen.

November 4, 2024 at 10:35 amI can’t speak highly enough of the preschool and the team; they are all incredible. He has learnt so much since being here and will be sad when he leaves in July. My little boy has been here since September 2022 and absolutely loves it.

November 17, 2024 at 8:43 pmI personally sense me and my kid were made to sense welcome by the welcoming team members. Great indoor and outdoor toys and activities. Seems like a great pre-school. Happ with things so far. My kid loves going to pre-school and really enjoys the days.

November 30, 2024 at 8:41 pmShe has loved going from the first day and consistently has a huge smile when I pick her up. The team are all so welcoming and attentive. My daughter has progressed so much since going, her speech has improved and she’s starting to learn her numbers and colours. The preschool has a lovely outside space and lots to do indoors! I sense really confident that she is well looked after and cared for when she is there. I’m so pleased I sent my daughter here. My daughter has recently joined Burghclere Pre-School.

December 5, 2024 at 10:06 amMy daughter has been attending since January 2021 and will be there until July 2022. They do a wide range of activities with the kids and consistently do themed activities for easter/mothers day/fathers day/Diwali etc. My daughter is cheerful to go to pre-school each morning and has learned a lot since joining there. The care from team is very great and I know she is in secure hands when there. Burghclere Pre-School is a small and welcoming setting.

December 8, 2024 at 7:25 pmAs a result, I have been in many educational settings. I have never been in one so conducive to the happiness of kids as that provided by Burghclere Pre-School.
All the kids – not only my own – are delighted with the attentive and structured provision, which we are fortunate to find directed by some of the most capable and dedicated team I have ever met.
This place is a gem, and the kids adore it. A secure and nurturing setting with outstanding provision, it is a fantastic place to be a kid. I consider myself very fortunate to have placed my kid with Burghclere Pre-School, whose initial misgivings about joining a childcare centre were replaced with breathless stories of what she had done that day, and what she would do the next.
Genuinely outstanding in every regard. Food is supplied by parents as a packed lunch – which our kid seldom eats – the three stars for food is therefore our fault, not that of Burghclere Pre-School I am a former head of school and education consultant.

December 24, 2024 at 9:00 pmHe has excellent enjoyable playing with all his friends and loves all the small activities they do with them every day. The team are lovely and welcoming. It’s a excellent preschool in a rural setting. My son has been at the preschool since September 2022 and loves being there.
Jamie Holland
January 8, 2025 at 11:21 amHighly suggest it as a lovely rural location and the class size is small and intimate. The team are so welcoming, welcoming and accommodating to all kids.
My son started here when he was 2 and it’s done wonders for his self‑assurance and development.
Arden Taylor
January 14, 2025 at 3:13 amMy daughter has additional needs and the manager has done everything in her power to help my daughter and get her a 1-1. My daughter loves going to preschool and all the team are lovely 100% suggest. This is a excellent preschool.

January 30, 2025 at 3:47 pmIt was a very sudden and unexpected move, however the team at Burghclere made both myself and my daughter sense so at home!
They are a remarkable team.
She consistently leaves at the end of the day with a big smile on her face as well as a handful of artwork. Overall very pleased with her preschool and it’ll be a sad day when we say goodbye in September. My daughter has been at this preschool since September 2022.

January 31, 2025 at 3:03 amNow a year on after joining Burghclere Pre-School his speech and self‑assurance have grown incredibly, the team are welcoming and understand the anxieties around Mum leaving him and will go out of their way to ensure that my son is the priority.
We would highly suggest this preschool to any parents. Our little boy was born in lockdown and spent up to age 2 at home with Mum.
Robin Holland
February 25, 2025 at 3:25 pmThere was never a day that she didn’t want to go to Pre-School. She consistently had a day filled with activities and the team were consistently smiling and cheerful to see her. Overall, the Pre-School is a remarkable small setting, with excellent team and a excellent space and my kid has thrived there. Ever since my daughter joined Burghclere Pre-School she has loved every single moment.
Indigo Lawson
April 26, 2025 at 7:07 amShe has consistently been a very shy girl but since being at preschool she’s grown so much and has become so confident.
She loves going to preschool and has made so many new friends.
The team are lovely and so warming, they consistently greet her with a smile.
I adore seeing what they do through the app, all the different art activities and the outside area is fantastic.
I especially loved seeing her phonic book at the end of the summer holidays.
I never worry when I’m at work and my daughter is at preschool as I know she’s well looked after, she’s cared for by the fantastic team, she’s discovering new things every day, and most importantly having enjoyable. My daughter has been going to Burghclere Preschool for over a year now.

May 9, 2025 at 9:59 pmThe team are consistently welcoming and consistently have a smile on their face, even at the end of the day!
My son loves going he loves everything about it and consistently wants to join in and tells me about his day. Burghclere Pre-School is outstanding!
Robin Blair
May 16, 2025 at 5:46 amHe comes home so cheerful everyday and tells me all about the enjoyable things he’s been up to.
A very cheerful little boy because of this preschool and I’ll be sad when he has to leave. We are so pleased we moved our little boy here, from another preschool.
