The Review Score of 8.4 (maximum of 10) for Toad Hall Nursery Haslemere is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 39 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Toad Hall Nursery Haslemere in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months.
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 4.667 for Toad Hall Nursery Haslemere is calculated as follows: ( (327 Excellents x 5) + (127 Goods x 4) + (13 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 468 Ratings = 4.667
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 3.711 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Toad Hall Nursery Haslemere is based on 3 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 3.5
Target of 14.2 positive Reviews (71 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 3 Reviews ÷ 14.2 Target = 0.211
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
Toad Hall Nursery Haslemere has a Review Score of 8.4 (8.378)
Review submitted from a Website Submission by Sarah W (Mother of Child) on Tuesday 3 April 2018. Relates to April 2018.
So pleased we found this wonderful nursery in the centre of Haslemere.
The staff are just outstanding, provide good daily feedback on what my little one has been up to, eaten if she has slept and nappies! They have such a varied and interesting daily routine (around standard meals and naps).
The outside area has recently been improved and the little ones go out daily.
The toilet facilities have also been improved so they are connected with the relevant rooms to help with potty training.
There are regular events for parents to attend including parents evening which are informative and a good formal (in an informal way!) way to catch up.
The food is outstanding and again varied.
Overall an excellent nursery that I wouldn’t hesitate recommending (and have done to numerous friends!)

I can't recommend this place highly enough. We recently moved here from London although their excellent support and communication began before we even left and has continued comprehensively ever since.
My reserved almost 3 years old has settled in so quickly and loves the nursery and staff so much that home time is a battle since he doesn't want to leave. This place and staff have been instrumental in ensuring our little man continues to be happy and develop and grow in confidence. He's come on well already in the short time we've been here, in terms of energy, speech, confidence helped by all the support, discipline, stimulus, freshly prepared meals and lots of outdoor time.
Honestly, this place is wonderful and no two days are the same- a great find. I'm only sorry this website won't let me name all the individuals who've been so involved.

We have two children at Toad Hall - Haslemere (age 1 and 3) and we're really happy with it. The staff are lovely and incredibly caring, we are 100% confident that the children are being well looked after and having a great day while we're at work. The staff have made a big effort to get to know the children and their likes and dislikes and they seemed to have formed a really nice bond - there are SO many cuddles! There is a lovely community feeling around the nursery.
They do a wide range of activities - art, cooking, phonics, singing, playing in the garden, reading etc... The three-year-old is always coming home telling us about what he's been up to, what he had to eat that day, who he played with and so on. The one-year-old has really been thriving since she started a few months ago - she settled in really easily and has become a lot more confident and chatty.
Communication with the staff is really easy - they are always responsive and accommodating.

Toad Hall is a very well run nursery, with very friendly and caring staff. From early morning cuddles to comfort my son, to the informative end of day updates advising sleeping patterns, activities during the day (which are varied and engaging) and a general update on his development.
The staff are always happy and engaging, which is very noticeable as he cannot wait to jump out the car and start his day.
What I cannot work out is how they manage to get him to sleep for so long each day, as we haven't cracked this at the weekends !
I could not recommend the nursery enough. I hear stories from friends of some of their experiences with other nurseries and feel very lucky to have found Toad Hall in Haslemere.

My son was due to start in December, but, due to an accident my husband cannot do any childcare on his paternity leave. We phoned on the Tuesday and on the Friday my seven month old started. He has never been looked after by anyone else but settled in with ease. He loves going and playing with all the other children and has a good go at all the activities. The staff are so friendly, it makes leaving him to go to work a much easier process. The chef is very accommodating and the staff are sorting our little one into a routine that he stubbornly refused to fit in to at home. We are pleased we chose Toad Hall and it is lovely to see the pictures of what they have been up to in the day.

As soon as you walk through the door to Toad Hall day nursery, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. This follows through to all the staff who are ever so kind, patient and friendly. My list of positive words could go on. The space available is more than plenty, the toys provided are many things a child could ask for, the activities are well thought and the meals on offer even make my tummy rumble.
My son has settled well into the nursery life. It's a great feeling to know and see how content he is when there. Overall we are very happy with Toad Hall.

They do a great range of activities with the children and our little one happily goes to his carers who he's formed a lovely bond with. It's very reassuring that he's looked after so well.

My daughter of two and son of three and a half walked into Toad Hall Haslemere and immediately felt at home. Staff are attentive, my son who is a fussy eater eats all of his food and my daughter, who is slightly feisty, is kept well occupied and always sleeps very well after school.

I have 2 children at Toad Hall Nursery Haslemere. Both are really happy and settled. The staff are always happy and when I ask my son if he had a good time he always replies "Yes, I did playing and eating", what more could a 3-year-old want! The only thing I feel could be improved slightly is communication. Sometimes I don't find out about events until after they have happened.

I have been really happy with my child's care at Toadhall. They have been particularly good in supporting him with his food allergies and adapting recipes / meals as required. I have always felt he was safe eating here. He looks forward to going every day and often does not want to leave. Great space inside for run around when wet. Great friendly staff team.

I often collect my Granddaughter from Toad Hall Nursery in Haslemere and would like to give my reasoning for the excellent feedback I've given.
Upon entering a clean environment you are always greeted by friendly face. The staff are extremely attentive and offer excellent support in the development of a child’s education. My Granddaughter has excelled in her writing, spelling, pronunciation of words and mathematical aspects, many people comment on how advanced she is for her age
The Nursery offers excellent varied curricular activities and always keep you posted on events and your child’s progress. This includes both indoor and outdoor activities including football with a professionally qualified coach as well as good educational programmes.
The choice and quality of food that's carefully and healthily prepared by a Chef is outstanding.
Other Parents / Grandparents I have met there are extremely friendly. I would have no hesitation in recommending Toad Hall Nursery in Haslemere

My daughter has been attending Toad Hall since she was 8 months old. My daughter settled in really well and the staff helped this by helping the separating easy by distracting her and loving her. She has been full time and has loved every minute. The staff have been brilliant in each room she has been in. The nursery is a really lovely building that is always bright and colourful with friendly staff members. The children always seem really happy and engaged in wonderful activities.
I have been working for Toad hall for 6 years as a team leader. I look forward to coming to nursery each day as it is such a fun environment to be in and take part in fun events.

We love bringing our child to Toad Hall Haslemere and he loves attending his morning sessions. We have noticed he is more confident than some other babies and feel this is down to his time at toad hall - interacting with other children and getting the attention he needs from the carers. We feel part of the family here and know everyone from manager, deputy, carers and even chef are available to us whenever we need to speak about our son's wellbeing.

The nursery is very welcoming. Initially when my child started a communication book was completed to let us know all about his eating, nappies and activities which was really reassuring when he was very young. He loves coming to the nursery and enjoys the wide variety of activities he gets to engage with. We are really pleased with how all the staff play with and look after our son.

We chose Toad Hall after looking at 4 different nurseries. The biggest difference was the genuine enthusiasm and energy of all of the staff which created a fun environment that our child could enjoy whilst learning. The facilities are great with a large central hall which is great when the weather isn't good enough to go outside into their grass or Tarmac play spaces. Our child has made some great friends there whom she spends time with outside of nursery. Toad Hall provides endless creative, innovative and resourceful activities for the children which allows our child to keep on progressing, experimenting and learning new things. We have recommended Toad Hall to two of our friends who now have happy children here too.

All staff are very engaging at all times and maintain a constant level of good care and professionalism.
The fact that when my son arrives in a bad mood and leaves full of smiles speaks volumes. Only down side would be staff turnaround but I realise this is a hazard of this working environment and staff need to move along, but perhaps an incentive to entice them to stay would be good?

I am extremely happy with the nursery my daughter has been here for three years. My son has just started nursery and has settled so well. The staff are always caring and give a very detailed handover about their day. The food served is amazing and my children love it. They do so many amazing activities like creative play, let's get physical and the early language programme. They are always outside exploring in the garden and my son loves to eat the mud.
I have been the manager for nearly 10 years and would recommend the nursery to everyone.

Brilliant staff very caring.
Food good but needs more veggies as sometimes too many carbs.
Great activities as well my son loves it especially garden and cooking.
Feels my son is in good hands he loves being here.

I cannot fault the nursery in any way my son has been coming since he was 4 months old and is now 3 and he absolutely loves it here, the facilities are fantastic and they also have some people who come and teach them football and music which is fantastic!
Happy son happy mum.

Very happy with the nursery . Child is happy and I feel comfortable leaving my daughter in their care. I would like to see more outside activities when possible. The staff are really caring and I feel happy with the overall service

Description:
I have been working with children in their Early Years since 2000.
I am fully trained in line with Level 3 Childcare & Education, and it is my responsibility to ensure that your child has a fantastic experience whilst in our care. I lead a team of 26 staff, who are all fully trained and are also committed to the quality care and education of your child. We are registered to care for up to 71 children.
I consider it to be essential that we work in partnership with you, as the parent or carer of your child, and hope that we can demonstrate our approach to childcare by welcoming you to our nursery soon.
