Lovely nursery and lovely staff.
The nursery also offers a good variety of tasty meals for the children to enjoy. The manager and her team that work within the setting really do their hardest to go above and beyond for the children and their development.
Since she became manager at this nursery
the overall improvement is outstanding.
Outdoor space seemed to need a little bit of tlc in places but it is safe and very enjoyable for the children.
Overall, it is a lovely nursery and because of all the staff my child is doing so well! He can be a little shy but with the staffs gentle approach, support and encouragement he is happy to go to nursery and is thriving with his learning and development.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Tiny Toez!


All the staff are knowledgeable, approachable and really value play. My little boy started not long after his 2nd birthday and we had no issues settling him in, he loves nursery! He talks about what he gets Upto each day and is always keen

to go! My son's learning and development has come on leaps and bounds since starting and I'm kept informed and updated with his learning and interests. His key worker really knows where he is in his development and uses his interests to plan next step activities.


My son does have complex medical issues and all the staff are fantastic with him. I was nervous about leaving him at first but they go above and beyond to make sure his care needs are met.
I'm really am very happy knowing my son is being well cared for at tiny toes.

Excellent nursery. Very friendly staff who both my children adore. My son is always so eager to go to nursery as soon as they open the door he runs in to see all his friends. Management are so lovely and very accommodating nothing is ever too much or an inconvenience for them. The outdoor space is amazing
one of the things we loved when we first viewed the nursery. There's always something going on. My son has especially loved it this year as they have had different animals in for short periods of time from stick insects, caterpillars which they saw turn into butterflies and then set them free. They've even had duck eggs that the children saw hatch and helped set up the short term living accommodation whilst they were at the nursery, which they all loved doing.
Food is great always a good variety and my youngest even has seconds for nearly every meal. Very clean environment and even has a lending library so the children can borrow books and then return for new ones.

Our son started in September 24 and we've had nothing but issues/accidents and a whole lot of illnesses! We've had a child keep attacking our son and the resolution offered was for me to change days! He's always poorly, snotty and filthy, every time I go to collect the children are crying wondering
round after staff that aren't bothered. I do need to say my child's keyperson was fantastic but couldn't help as management overrules. My son struggled to settle and even more so with a particular staff member who he was terrified of! I've taken him out of tiny Toez and it's put me off leaving him with people who just have this as a job and nothing g more. The manager was great too as she had to have my son in when he was scared to stay with another member. Other than address the issue my son was penalised. So no I don't recommend and nothing but negative from us I'm afraid. Even formal complaints outcome was poor.

Reply from Kay Elson, Nursery Manager at Tiny Toez @ Cannock Chase

I'm sorry to hear that you're not completely satisfied with our services. We genuinely value feedback from parents and always look into any concerns to ensure our outcomes align with our policies, promoting fairness for everyone. Our committed team, including myself, works hard to create a fun and enriching space for each child at Tiny Toez @ Cannock. It's normal for children to catch illnesses during their first six months as they are building their immune systems, and we want to support them through this process.

After a bad experience at another nursery we enrolled our baby at Tiny Toez @ Cannock Chase and I can't believe how happy and well looked after our baby is. The staff are warm and caring and clearly take a lot of pride in caring for the children. The staff are knowledgeable about our baby's needs and
are keen to share the progress our baby makes at nursery. The staff really go above and beyond.

My son joined in September 2024 after moving to the area and having to change nurseries. He settled in from day 1 and ever since has run in happily. All staff are very friendly and helpful. I particularly like how you can go into their room when picking up as you catch a glimpse of them interacting/playing
before they see you which wasn't an option at the previous nursery setting. They do a variety of activities/crafts and provide regular photos of their day which is lovely to see. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery.

My daughter has been coming to Tiny Toez since January this year, she started off being shy and barely interacting with any staff or children, 6 months later she has come out of her shy shell and has so many friends and she absolutely loves her teachers now! Staff are brilliant, so kind and lovely,
every single one! I used this nursery for my eldest daughter as well and I couldn't fault it so I didn't hesitate to bring our youngest here as well and it was the best decision, she has another year to do yet and I can guarantee she will love another year with her teachers and some of her friends who are also staying for another year. Highly recommend this nursery.

My son has only been at Tiny Toez for nearly 3 months but he absolutely loves it and is really thriving, I have really seen a difference in his confidence, his talking and everyday he learns something new. It's lovely that Dad can drop him off and the atmosphere is so comfortable and staff are very
approachable if you have any worries and are always happy to help and very down to earth. My son absolutely loves one childcare practitioner in particular who has been fantastic with him from day one of his taster session when he was a bit worried and the childcare practitioner reassured both me and my son. It is lovely to see a setting with a male staff member as well as the lovely females who work here.

Our daughter has been at the setting for 3.5 years. There have been some turbulent times for the nursery but with proper guidance, these have been overcome and this is a testament to how much the staff care for the children. We are really happy with the care of our daughter. They provide opportunities,
and a safe environment, for her to play, learn, use her imagination and even cook!

My daughter has been going to Tiny Toez since she was 10 months old and she is now 27 months. There have been a lot of changes and I initially had a lot of reservations. However, the main reason I kept her there was she walked in happy and walked out happy. I had a lot of conversations with management
and senior management which helped my anxieties regarding the changes there. We were recently invited to parents evening which really confirmed how hard the staff work there. I for one am very pleased I continued to leave her there as I saw for myself how well the staff care and treat the children. You can tell the children are at the centre's priority. The rooms are up to date/the curriculum is up to date and the biggest thing is the staff are so great with the children. A big thank you for all you have done even when the parents have not been the easiest to deal with. My daughter has come on so well and a big factor is the help/guidance from you starting from Little Ferns to Oaks.

My child has been going to Tiny Toez for a couple of years now and loves going. No major issues which any other nursery doesn’t face, the staff have always been great and the new management has really added a strong learning structure which is superb. The app is updated regularly and his key worker
is like his best friend. The nursery is friendly, safe and a happy place. It has undergone some staff changes recently but the new staff members are very good and have brought in some fantastic learning strategies and play ideas.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.771)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.771) out of 10 for Tiny Toez @ Cannock Chase is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.771 for Tiny Toez @ Cannock Chase is calculated as follows: ( (211 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.771

  • b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tiny Toez @ Cannock Chase is based on 19 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
