My son started here when he was 2 and it’s done wonders for his confidence and development.
Highly recommend it as a lovely rural location and the class size is small and intimate.

October 18, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter started this term at the pre-school and she has quickly settled in. The staff are fantastic; 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 safe hands and enjoys her time there.

November 4, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been going to Burghclere Preschool for over a year now.
She has always 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 staff are lovely and so warming, they always greet her with a smile.
I love seeing what they do through the app, all the different art activities and the outside area is wonderful.
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 wonderful staff, she’s learning new things every day, and most importantly having fun.

November 24, 2021 at 12:00 amBurghclere Pre-School is a small and friendly setting. My daughter has been attending since January 2021 and will be there until July 2022. They do a wide range of activities with the children and always do themed activities for easter/mothers day/fathers day/Diwali etc. My daughter is happy to go to pre-school each morning and has learned a lot since joining there. The care from staff is very good and I know she is in safe hands when there.

November 29, 2021 at 12:00 amMy child loves going to pre-school and really enjoys the days. I personally feel me and my child were made to feel welcome by the friendly staff members. Good indoor and outdoor toys and activities. Seems like a good pre-school. Happ with things so far.

September 7, 2022 at 12:00 amEver since my daughter joined Burghclere Pre-School she has loved every single moment. There was never a day that she didn’t want to go to Pre-School. She always had a day filled with activities and the staff were always smiling and happy to see her. Overall, the Pre-School is a fantastic small setting, with great staff and a great space and my child has thrived there.

January 16, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little boy has been here since September 2022 and absolutely loves it. I can’t speak highly enough of the preschool and the staff; they are all amazing. He has learnt so much since being here and will be sad when he leaves in July.

April 4, 2023 at 12:00 amWe are so pleased we moved our little boy here, from another preschool.
He comes home so happy everyday and tells me all about the fun things he’s been up to.
A very happy little boy because of this preschool and I’ll be sad when he has to leave.

April 4, 2023 at 12:00 amA great find for us over in Inkpen. Exactly what we were after.
The manager and her team really care about each child!
They have so many amazing experiences! So far, they’ve had ponies visit them, a police riot van come to visit so the children could look inside and ask questions and a musician come and show them and play 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.

April 13, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been at the preschool since September 2022 and loves being there. He has great fun playing with all his friends and loves all the small activities they do with them every day. The staff are lovely and friendly. It’s a great preschool in a rural setting.

July 10, 2023 at 12:00 amI am a former head of school and education consultant. As a result, I have been in many educational settings. I have never been in one so conducive to the happiness of children as that provided by Burghclere Pre-School.
All the children – not only my own – are delighted with the caring and structured provision, which we are fortunate to find directed by some of the most capable and dedicated staff I have ever met.
This place is a gem, and the children love it. A safe and nurturing environment with excellent provision, it is a wonderful place to be a child. I consider myself very fortunate to have placed my child with Burghclere Pre-School, whose initial misgivings about joining a nursery were replaced with breathless stories of what she had done that day, and what she would do the next.
Genuinely excellent in every regard. Food is supplied by parents as a packed lunch – which our child seldom eats – the three stars for food is therefore our fault, not that of Burghclere Pre-School

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy children have loved being at this Pre School and are warmly greeted by the staff every day. They have a big selection of toys and activities to keep them entertained and interested throughout the day. The children have had a selection of activities throughout the year, such as a farm visit and Easter hunt. We will be sad to leave and recommend the setting.

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been at this preschool since September 2022. It was a very sudden and unexpected move, however the team at Burghclere made both myself and my daughter feel so at home!
They are a fantastic team.
She always 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.

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has recently joined Burghclere Pre-School. She has loved going from the first day and always has a huge smile when I pick her up. The staff are all so friendly and caring. 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 feel really confident that she is well looked after and cared for when she is there. I’m so pleased I sent my daughter here.

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been with Burghclere Preschool for the past year and a half and absolutely loves it, the staff are amazing and so good with her. They 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 fun!
My son also went here before primary and still misses it now and often asks to go back!

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little boy joined in September 2022 and was very nervous and anxious to begin with. Staff 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 confidence and I will be sad when he leaves. Wonderful little preschool, can’t recommend enough!

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amOur little boy was born in lockdown and spent up to age 2 at home with Mum. Now a year on after joining Burghclere Pre-School his speech and confidence have grown incredibly, the staff are friendly 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 recommend this preschool to any parents.

July 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has spent the last year at Burghclere and has loved her time there. She always skips to the door at drop-off and comes out with a smile on her face when she is picked up. The preschool provides children 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 staff are very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.
