Review of Dots & Tots Nursery Petworth from Fabiola T (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I'm so grateful for the wonderful care my son has received at this nursery. The team has been incredibly patient, kind, and supportive, and they helped him settle in far more quickly than I expected. He now walks in with a smile, and it's clear he feels safe, happy, and understood. The staff truly go above and beyond, and I couldn't be more pleased with the progress he's made. Highly recommended.

Reply from Janine Gibson, Director at Dots & Tots Nursery Petworth

Review of Dots & Tots Nursery ARH from Narkis S (Mother of Child) published on 7 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We've had such a wonderful experience with Dots and Blot Nursery over the past two years. My son has truly thrived there - he is always happy to go in, enjoys every day, and is so well cared for by the team.
One of the things we appreciate most is the attention they give to every aspect of the children's development. From healthy nutrition to a safe and engaging play area, everything is thoughtfully planned. The outdoor playtime is especially great - the children get to be active, build strength, and enjoy fresh air in a structured and fun way.
As a family where English is not our first language, the progress my son has made is incredible. I still remember his first day when he didn't know how to speak or understand English. Today, he speaks confidently, communicates well, and interacts happily with others. It's been amazing to see that transformation, and we truly believe the nursery has played a big role in that.

A special mention to Stacey - my son talks about her all the time.

Review of Dots & Tots Nursery Petworth from R M (Mother of Child) published on 7 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Choosing a nursery for our daughter was a big decision, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful place. From day one, the team has been warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring.
A special mention has to go to Janine and Lee, who have both been absolutely amazing. Their kindness, patience, and genuine enthusiasm make such a difference, and it's clear how much they truly care about the children.
Our daughter is only 2 but very forward, and the nursery has done such a fantastic job of supporting and encouraging her development. The activities are always engaging, fun, and perfectly suited to help her grow in confidence and learn new skills. It's been so lovely to see how much she's progressed in such a short time.
The environment is safe, nurturing, and full of positivity. We're always kept up to date with how she's doing, which gives us great peace of mind. Most importantly, she is always happy, settled, and excited to go in each day.

We're so grateful for the care .

Review of Dots & Tots Nursery ARH from L B (Mother of Child) published on 24 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Since my son has started at Dots and Tots he has become much more confident and happy. He is excited to go nursery everyday and has made great friends with other children.

He has learnt a number of things such literature from nursery rhymes to a variety of books; but most importantly social etiquette, which will help him when he moves up into primary school. He loves playing outside in nature, especially the mud kitchen and the activities set up help him with his coordination and to burn off that excess energy.

The staff are professional, friendly and truly care for the growth and wellbeing of each child. We have been dealing with some difficult personal issues and they have been incredibly supportive and helpful, ensuring my son is well looked after and supported throughout it all.

He will be deeply sad when he has to leave for school. I can't recommend ARH dots and tots enough for all the love and care they put into looking after all the children in their care, thank you.

Reply from Janine Gibson, Director at Dots & Tots Nursery ARH
Thank you so much for your wonderful review - it truly means a lot to our whole team.

We are so pleased to hear how happy and confident your son has become since joining Dots & Tots. Watching children grow in confidence, build friendships and develop a love for learning is exactly what we aim for...

Review of Dots & Tots Nursery ARH from Ana G (Mother of Child) published on 22 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery has been a very positive experience for my child. The staff show care and dedication, providing a wide range of educational and stimulating activities. I especially value the encouragement of outdoor play, which greatly contributes to the children's development and well-being. It is clear that my child is happy in this environment.

However, I believe there are some important areas for improvement. Firstly, the lack of a separate room for rest time means that all routines take place in the same space, which can make it difficult for children to get the proper rest they need. A quieter, dedicated area for rest would make a significant difference to their well-being.

Additionally, I believe that nappy changes could be carried out more frequently throughout the day, ensuring greater comfort and hygiene for the children.

Overall, I would recommend the nursery, highlighting the care of the staff and the quality of the activities, but I hope these improvements will be considere

Review of Dots & Tots Nursery Petworth from N S (Mother of Child) published on 23 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Dots and Tots has been an incredible nursery for my son, who has attended since he was 9 months old. The care, attention, and nurturing environment they provide has supported his development beautifully - he's now a confident, happy, and curious 3-year-old. The staff go above and beyond every day, and it's clear how much they care for each child. The setting offers a perfect balance of play-based learning and structured activities, helping children thrive socially, emotionally, and intellectually. A special thank you to 5 staff members in particular, who have all made such a positive impact on my son's journey. I'm so grateful for the love and support he's received over the years, and I truly couldn't have asked for a better start to his early years. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dots and Tots to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and inspiring nursery setting.

Reply from Janine Gibson, Director at Dots & Tots Nursery Petworth

Review of Dots & Tots Nursery Petworth from M U (Mother of Child) published on 16 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Dots & Tots. Our 2-year-old son absolutely loves going there every day, and as parents, that gives us such peace of mind. The staff is incredibly warm, patient, and caring - they treat every child as an individual and create such a nurturing environment. The activities are both fun and educational, helping him grow socially, emotionally, and intellectually. We've noticed such a positive change in his speech, confidence, and curiosity since he started. The space is always clean, safe, and filled with age-appropriate toys and learning materials.

Communication with the nursery is excellent - we always feel informed and involved in his progress. We're so grateful to have found a place where our child feels happy, supported, and excited to learn. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a loving and professional early years setting!

My son has attended Dots & Tots for the last couple of years, and he absolutely loves attending. He loves it that much he wants to attend on his days off, and he's thriving, coming on leaps and bounds, including his social skills. All the staff are amazing; the learning and the care, love and support they give to the children is always 100%. They keep you updated with everything, and I know each day my son is in safe hands. I couldn't ask for better people or a better place for him.
