Review from Hannah C (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

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.

Reply from Tinkerbells Nursery, Operations Manager at Tinkerbells Nursery

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...

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.

Lots of communication and my grandson is settled. He is coming on leaps and bounds and is supported in all areas of his development.

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

Overall Experience

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.

This is my fourth child to attend Tinkerbells Nursery and all have wanted to go back! The app is brilliant for keeping you up to date with peace of mind all day. Love the videos and pictures! My little boy loves the staff and is always happy when he is dropped off and picked up. His development has been brilliant and would highly recommend!

Overall Experience
I am very satisfied with this nursery. My little girl was very happy from the beginning. From the first days, she settled down. They do a lot of activities here. She learned a lot. She is a different child, much more open and sociable.

In general, I am very satisfied with this nursery and would not go anywhere else.

Both of my children have been to Tinkerbells Nursery and they absolutely love it.
My son has moved on to school and still asks when he can go back to Tinkerbells.
All the team there really care about the children and keep me updated on everything my daughter is doing throughout the day and my daughter comes out smiling and so happy.

I would highly recommend this nursery to everyone.

Overall Experience

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!

My little boy has been attending the day nursery for six months now and has come on leaps and bounds. All the staff are friendly, caring and create a really happy, safe and inclusive environment for the children. The educational provision is fantastic, as are the freshly cooked meals.

One child is currently in the nursery and another has finished but still uses the holiday club. Cannot fault the care that my children have received and the help I've experienced with Tinkerbells. Would recommend them. Love the app with the little pictures, you get updates.

Overall Experience
Amazing nursery! My three daughters have all attended this nursery with the youngest coming to her final few months before she starts school. Since starting she's learnt so much and her confidence has rocketed sky high! Love the impact the staff have had on her and I truly feel that my daughter is in a safe and comfortable environment.

Highly recommended this nursery!

Overall Experience
My two children attend Tinkerbells and they both love it! My daughter has come on so much since attending and engages in so many fun activities to aid her learning and development.

My son has Special Educational Needs and the nursery team has been amazing with him, they always listen to what challenges we are facing and the Special Educational Needs Coordinator is amazing and is very hands-on with getting support in place and filling in endless forms. The girls adore my son and he does them and it's so comforting to know he's in very safe hands and they provide the best care tailoring to his every need all while encouraging his learning.

Overall Experience

My son goes to after school club three days a week. He absolutely loves it and isn't happy when I pick him up early. The staff are fab, especially one staff member who my son thinks highly of. They have yummy food he says and they do loads of activities. Couldn't praise them enough as my son is so happy there! Loads of fun outside with plenty of outdoor space they play football with each other.

My daughter started in the nursery room at the beginning of January 2023, and the way she has settled is everything we could have wished for. The staff are beyond friendly and so accommodating to my daughter's likes/dislikes and needs. The updates we are given are precise and very comforting. Communication is second to none. We couldn't have chosen a better nursery for us! Thank you so much for being so fabulous!

My daughter really wasn't sure about leaving me at first and Tinkerbells took it upon themselves to offer surplus settling sessions which have made a huge difference. She is now absolutely loving it and goes in with no tears. Thank you, team.
