About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 38 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 38 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 30 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

The nursery has improved massively over the past year, and it really shows. The pre-school room is fantastic - calm, well-organised, and full of engaging activities. My child is genuinely happy here and comes home excited about their day. It's been wonderful to see such a positive change.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We have loved watching your child grow into the most confident, chatty and kind little Owl, and we know they will love their next adventure at big school!

We could not be happier with our decision to send our daughter, Kim, to this wonderful nursery. It truly is a great place that feels like a second home for her. Every single day, she is greeted with warmth, and she has thrived so much since starting here.A huge part of what makes this nursery so special is the amazing manager Nakita - Her exceptional skills, leadership, and genuine passion for early years education shine through in everything she does. She is always approachable, highly professional, and deeply invested in the well-being and development of every child.The staff are fantastic, the environment is stimulating and safe, and the communication with parents is excellent. We are incredibly grateful to the entire team for giving Kim such a positive, joyful, and nurturing start in life. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for top-tier care!
Thank you so much! Looking after your little one (and your family) is a joy and she makes our day extra brighter when she brings in her flowers and many many stickers! We are so happy to have the opportunity to teach and care for her! We know she will continue to THRIVE as she gets older :)!!

This has been so much better since Nakita took over as maternity cover, she has made some fantastic progress and the room leaders are taking a really lovely and engaging approach with updates.
Since Tracey took over in my daughters room, there has been so much more consistency and updates daily including regular observation for us to see.
Nakita is always so welcoming everyday and so engaging with every parent and child, which did take a drop during staff changes. I can't thank Taylor enough for being so lovely with my daughter either.
I have now signed my son up to start later in the year and I have every confidence that the new management and staff (new and old) will stick around while he moves through the nursery.
Their chef makes some fantastic meals and they have so many activities to keep them busy, my daughter is always so happy after nursery.
Thank you so much for your beautiful review! We LOVE looking after your family and cannot wait for your littelest person to start with us!! Our team will love hearing how positive you feel being with us, and we look forward to continue making new memories for you!

It was always a struggle to get any information out of them or having the Simplest invoicing completed correctly yet alone a simple smile or greeting.
The team are now happy, friendly and welcoming! Whatever or whoever has changed the environment, may it long continue.
My son's development is directly related to the happy staff.
I would now recommend Toad Hall to parents, if you had to ask me in October last year I would have laughed and not recommended Toad Hall.
Great job on the turn around. Keep it up.
Thank you for your review! We have been working hard to make sure our team are as happy as our lovely little ones as they will always be our main priority :)!

The nursery has a warm, friendly atmosphere, and I feel at ease when I go off to work, knowing my daughter will have a great day. Tracey and Taylor have had a huge impact on my daughter's development, and I can see a real difference since she has been in their care. The management team, Nikita & Amy are fantastic, always greeting us and keeping us updated. I would definitely recommend Toad hall
We love looking after your family, and it is such a pleasure being able to make such a difference for your very amazing little girl!! Thank you for choosing us at Toad hall :)

The nurse is very clean and the food is nutritious. She gets to try variety of things and gets along so well with other children there.

Very supportive with initial attachment issues, both to our daughter and us as first time parents - happy to say she loves nursery now.
An all round great nursery, thank you for all you do!
It makes us smile knowing how happy you are with us at Toad Hall Chessington! We love looking after your littlest person in your family :)!
My two nieces have been going to toad-hall for several years now, I have been picking them up weekly ever since, I recently had my own child and was not going to send him to toad-hall as I felt there was to much change here over the years and it didn't feel me with much confidence , however, since...
The nursery has changed massively over the last few months, the staff all seem very happy now and there's a great atmosphere when you walk in. The changes to the building itself as-well make a huge difference. I'm so glad we met Nikita and now know my son Charlie will thrive at Toad-hall.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments! We cannot wait until we get to look after your little one and share all these new experience with you all :) !!

I love Toad Hall Chessington and so does my daughter, the team there lead by Nakita and Amy are wonderful. It's so reassuring that not only does my daughter gets to learn through play but she is so cared for. What I love about the Toad Hall team is the warmth and kindness they show not only to the children through all their big feelings as they grow, but actually to us parents, who are juggling lots of competing priorities. I am so happy we made the decision 12 months ago to choose Toad Hall. Thank you Nakita, Amy, Tracey, Taylor, Adam and Chelsea never underestimate the difference you make
We think the world of you and all of our families with us at Toad hall and we feel so lucky we get to support you in any way we can! Thank you so much for your lovely comments, they really make a difference!

My granddaughter has been attending this nursery for over a year and she loves to tell me all about it and how much fun she has there. She loves her key person and has made several friends. I have collected her myself a couple of times and I like the homely and friendly feel.

I have found them really flexible in terms of helping my child with potty training and sleep times and anything else that requires personal approach so really pleased with that.
My boy has a lovely time there every day so it's always a pleasure picking him up happy.
The new app needs some work or getting used to so would be better utilised for consistent updates but it's early days so constantly improving.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. Its great to hear your enjoying your time at Toadhall.

My daughter on 14 separate occasions has returned with excrement on her where the staff have continually failed to clean her properly. I have tried to resolve this multiple times, unsuccessfully. The last time we had to take my daughter to the GP as we noticed blood in her dirty knickers. The GP advised it was probably where she was left sitting in it for so long. I had to demand a meeting with the regional manager who said some of their staff struggle with when the most basic of tasks; and despite assurances, it has happened again. I will be reporting them to Ofsted for failing to provide the most basic of care for my child and I will ensure inform all of this inadequate provision.

As soon as I viewed Toad Hall, it felt like the school where my little boy was back home. My little boy has grown leaps and bounds since starting at Toad Hall, and that can only be testament to the love, care and support that he receives from his teachers and the wider team. He is eating well, making new friends and is such a happy little man. Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review.
My boy has been at Toad Hall Nursery since he was 13 months old and we have nothing but good things to say about the nursery and staff. Our son has a tendency to be shy and nervous, but socialising with other kids at Toad Hall has really built his confidence. Everyone is so kind and patient with...
The nursery is always clean and tidy, staff are friendly and professional, and most importantly the kids in all the classrooms seem like they’re having a really nice time. Classrooms and gardens are segregated by age and this works really well, as there’s no danger of little kids being knocked over by older children.
My son started in Butterflies in January 2023 and has gone from strength to strength. He absolutely loves being dropped off and the staff are so lovely with him. After some initial teething issues, I am now extremely happy he is settled in and well looked after. He is learning so many new skills...
My son started in Butterflies in January 2023 and has gone from strength to strength. He absolutely loves being dropped off and the staff are so lovely with him. After some initial teething issues, I am now extremely happy he is settled in and well looked after. He is learning so many new skills and I’m sure this is down to being encouraged every day by the staff at Toad Hall - in particular his key worker. I now feel happy dropping him off knowing he’s going to have a great day and learn lots of new skills whilst having the best time
Lovely and welcoming staff. The nursery has a cosy atmosphere. They have all been very patient with my little one who started nursery in January 2023. He has improved so much since. I highly recommend them.
