Private day nursery based in Smallwood, Redditch.
Open 7.30am-6pm Monday to Friday – all year round only closing for bank holidays and a week over Christmas.
Tinkerbells offers much more than childcare—providing a warm, enriching environment where children aged 0–5 can grow, explore, and thrive. Tinkerbell's holistic approach supports children's emotional, physical, social, and intellectual development, nurturing confident, kind, and curious learners.
The curriculum is broad, creative, and hands-on. Children enjoy Forest School, woodwork, gardening, expressive arts, yoga, and healthy eating, while a dedicated art studio and library inspire imagination and a lifelong love of books. The nursery uses Makaton to support inclusive communication and embed the Kindness Code in all they do.
Central to Tinkerbells ethos is a dedicated team of early years practitioners, passionate about understanding and meeting the unique needs of every child and family, building strong, respectful partnerships with parents, working together to ensure each child feels safe, valued, and empowered.
Tinkerbells see children as capable individuals who flourish when given time, space, and trust to lead their own learning. When they leave the nursery, children are not only ready for school, but equipped with the confidence, compassion, and curiosity to thrive in life.
As part of the ‘out of school’ provision, the nursery offers breakfast and after-school clubs and transport to and from some local schools. During school closures the nursery also offers holiday club facilities.
Please contact the team to arrange to have a look around.

My daughter is nearly 4 she's been attending the nursery since she was 1, I kept her here instead of a state school purely because she loves it and has so much fun. She skips into the nursery every time and adores all the staff even the office staff where she goes in every time to tell them how her day was and to thank them for having a great day. I will be sad to see her leave when the time comes as I drop her off and I know she's safe and having the best time whilst learning new things.
Best in childcare education. The staff are so welcoming and great standard of quality childcare. My son always loves to go to school because he's been treated well. Even his off days, he puts on his shoes and bag and takes his bottle and goes like 'Mama school'.

From the minute we were looking around the nursery in 2023 for our little boy, we just had a good feeling that he’d be well looked after. We chose this one before we looked at any others, going on a year since,he joined, I can honestly say I am happy with how they support him and he loves it every time he goes in. His speech has developed so much better since being there and the staff are amazing!

Both of my children have been coming to this nursery since they were 9 months old and now they both attend morning and after-school clubs and also in the holidays. Both children love it at Tinkerbells Nursery and the staff are all amazing and the support they give you and always will do what they can to help you out, not just for the children but the parent as well. I wouldn't choose any other nursery to send them to and it will be sad when the children are not young enough to go anymore.
What an amazing setting! My grandson has come on leaps and bounds during his time at nursery. His speech and social skills have developed immensely. The whole team are always willing to help, advise and the care they give is second to none. I would and do always recommend Tinkerbells Nursery. Thank...

I once wrote a very pleasant review about this nursery but it would appear now after several complaints to them that their only vision is to have a perfect 10 score on this website. Several complaints and meetings with management as my daughter, aged 3, was being bullied by the same child. Procedures they put in place to tackle this problem were not followed and staff left her to cry. Deputy managers didn’t have a clue and seemed less than interested when this was brought to their attention. All resulting in me having to pull my child from the setting. Would not recommend.

Our ‘vision’ is the welfare and development of every child at the setting, not our rating on this website, especially as only months ago you reviewed the setting top ratings. We are sorry you felt you had to pull your child out of the setting due to procedures not being followed, at times we cannot follow all parent's requests or suggestions of how a given situation should be managed as it is not always the correct way. We would like to state that all procedures are always followed fully. At no point does any member of our team leave any child to cry. The management team has over 30 years of experience, with extensive knowledge and passion for child development & the successful running of a nursery. For example, we know that children under 5 cannot be tarnished with the unwelcome and derogatory terminology such as ‘bully’. Developmentally children of the age you are referring to are unable to preconceive intentional harm towards another child. We refute that any child in the setting is in any way a bully.
Great, caring and helpful team. Very reassuring whilst having a child in this setting. My child’s speech and confidence have massively increased since her time at Tinkerbells Nursery. Thanks again for all the effort and hard work put in by the members of staff.

Excellent nursery. My son has been coming for nearly 2 years and has come on leaps and bounds. He’s very happy to come in to nursery each morning. The staff are all friendly and very helpful couldn’t ask for a better nursery.

Would love to take part in activities with him, like there have been parent and child activities.

Tinkerbells Nursery have been very supportive and understanding in order to meet my son's needs. They have regularly kept in contact with us to keep us updated with our son's development and they have been working hard to improve his speech and language skills. Our son had a hard time settling in at first however with the constant encouragement and support to arrange suitable timings for him have given a positive outcome. He loves his days at Tinkerbells and we are really happy with the service from Tinkerbells. Thank you very much.

Absolutely amazing nursery. Cannot fault it in the slightest. My child adores the setting and the staff and most importantly I feel very confident leaving my child there and confident that he is safe, looked after and having the best time. All of the staff are super friendly and their communication is fantastic whether it be between other staff members or family of the children. They're always working together with families to ensure the best care for each child and meeting the needs of the child in their care!
Love that they learn about so many different cultures from all over the world.

I have worked within the early years sector for 30 years including working in varying roles. In that time, I have continued my studies and kept abreast of the ever-changing world of early years. I have an extensive knowledge of working with young children and thrive on seeing children grow and develop in a fun and exciting environment with teams that love their job! Here at Tinkerbells I believe the staff go above and beyond to ensure the best care and experiences for all the children in our care. I am looking forward to meeting any new families and waiting to see what adventures await us!
