My child has been attending the nursery for over 6 months now and we couldn't be happier with the care for our child that is provided. All of the staff are kind, caring and passionate about their roles. We are regularly informed what our child is up to during the day and we really enjoy seeing the pictures whilst we are at work. My child was very attached to me before starting nursery and I was concerned how she would transition. However, I have been very pleased with how easily she settled in and she loves coming to nursery every day. Thank you so much to everyone who has aided in this.

I love how the nursery make me feel at ease leaving my son, when he goes through periods of being upset not wanting to leave, they will always message me to say he has settled in and had lots of cuddles. Some days we get lots of updates on what the children have been up to, which is lovely. The meals served are a good variety through the month so my son doesn't get bored and more often that not he will eat all of the food served. The nursery are always sending updates on what they are teaching our children and how we can incorporate this at home. Also the development updates are great. My son loves going to Nursery and always runs out to me happy and blowing kisses to the team in his room.

My little boy is absolutely thriving at nursery, it's been wonderful for his development. He has made lovely bonds with the staff & the other children.
The nursery app is regularly updated throughout the day as to what activities he has been doing, including photos. Meals, naps & nappy changes are also logged so I can rest assured that he is well looked after.
The staff take time to carry out observations & progress reports, I love hearing about my little boys development.
The nursery is in a beautiful setting with good access to outdoor spaces for the children to safely explore & play.
I have no concerns about going into work knowing that he will have such a fun filled day.I would 100% recommend this nursery to other parents.

My son has been at Toad Hall since July 2021 when he started at just five months old. To say that this nursery and its staff are wonderful would be a huge understatement. The team have shown nothing but care, dedication and professionalism in the time we have been there. My son loves going to nursery, adores the team, and has come on in leaps and bounds with all aspects of his development. Not only has my son thrived but from my own perspective as a working mum, I knew he was having the best time and would be cared for so beautifully. Having my son at Toad Hall has allowed me to go back to work with confidence, never once doubting that he was in safe hands. If you're looking for a place for your child, peace of mind is utterly priceless - thank goodness for Toad Hall.
