Review from Sophie J (Mother of Child) published on 11 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My two children have both very much enjoyed their time at Toad Hall. The staff are kind, fond of the children and passionate about what they do. My daughter is now in Reception at school and when she started she had been very well prepared by Toad Hall, which made the transition into school so much
easier. She started school with a good grasp of letters and phonics, which has stood her in great stead. My son is still at Toad Hall, and is very happy there - he particularly loves the large outside area and the fact the children get a lot of outdoor time.

I find all the staff a pleasure to deal with, they have helped my son to develop great friendship bonds and also great confidence. The nursery has a family feel to it and I would highly recommend the manager and the team to anyone considering a local nursery.

Couldn't recommend the team at Felcott Road highly enough. Lovely girls who have given my hard to settle daughter as many cuddles as she has needed. Really professional and we are very pleased with how my daughter has progressed since she started coming here.

My child enjoys coming to the nursery and get on with both children and staff. I am satisfied with the variety of activities the children do throughout the day. The outside area is great, the largest I have seen when looking at other nursery schools.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.170)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.170) out of 10 for Toad Hall Nursery Walton-on-Thames is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.675 for Toad Hall Nursery Walton-on-Thames is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.675
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.495 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Toad Hall Nursery Walton-on-Thames is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 101 number of registered child places is 20.2. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.2 = 0.495
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Jacqui Halford

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2025

I have been working in day nurseries since 1995 after qualifying as an NNEB nursery nurse, giving me over 30 years of experience in the sector, including 28 years in management roles. In 2013, I completed my BA (Hons) in Education & Childcare, following a Foundation Degree in Management & Leadership in Early Years.


Throughout my career, I have continually updated my training in areas such as First Aid, Mental Health First Aid, Food Hygiene, and Safeguarding. I have previously been a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and will also be the named DSL here at Toad Hall.


My vision is to provide outstanding quality childcare and education in an inclusive, safe, and stimulating environment. I strongly believe staff are the biggest asset any nursery can have, and I am passionate about supporting and valuing each team member so they can create exceptional learning opportunities and give children the very best start.


Having my own children (now grown up and independent) attend Nursery, I understand the needs of parents and believe that forming strong relationships with families enhances every child’s Nursery experience.
