Excellent nursery, who send updates and photos of your child regularly. The staff are so lovely as well. The only problem is the wait list is so long as the nursery is so in demand.

The ladies at Tiny Toez are excellent. I could not fault them at all. Very polite all the time and had time to talk to you regarding your child and concerns. The ladies in the office went above and beyond to make sure that my son could say at the nursery the month before he started school. I couldn't
thank them enough for all the help they have given my son and me. Will be using again definitely and will recommend 100%.

This nursery has been outstanding. My son has been visiting here since was 9 months and is now 4.


My interaction with them has been fantastic and all the staff are very polite and friendly.


But the best review is from my son. He absolutely loves it when he goes to nursery, he has never said

anything bad about it and he is sad he is leaving for school.


Very much money well spent!!

Our grandson loved coming to Tiny Toez, he came on so much when he attended. The staff are amazing and are always there to help.
The baby room helped with all different aspects, from settling him in to teaching him new things.
I would recommend this nursery in the future to anyone who asked.

The nursery is very efficient, very clean and the staff are obviously good with the children. I feel like my child is beginning to settle in after a difficult start but the staff have been very good throughout the settling process. The only thing that could improve is the EY log there are some days
where I get no entries.

When my son attended Tiny Toez he was happy and comfortable and he made great bonds with the staff.
In his Eylog he always seemed to be enjoying himself and to be engaged in the activities provided.
Anything that needed reporting to myself or his dad was reported.
Overal, it is a very good setting
and I would recommend it to anyone needing childcare.

My boy started Tiny Toez at 14 months old, he is now 3 and leaving in a few weeks to go to nursery school. He has enjoyed every day spent at the nursery and I have felt at ease leaving him there. This is all thanks to the lovely staff who have taken such good care of him, I am so grateful for how they
have looked after him.
These ladies do an amazing job, they all have big hearts with so much love for the children and I can not thank them enough. My boy and I will miss them all and I would certainly recommend the nursery to all our friends and family.

Very friendly staff, always clean and tidy. Children are well looked after and each of their individual needs are met.
Great place highly recommended.
Management are great, also very friendly, parents always welcomed and kept up to date with their child's progress. I can't think of any thing bad
to say about them it's a great place for the children. My two love it there and my third will be starting soon.

My godson settled in really well into Tiny Toez and he loved attending.
He made great bonds with staff and his key worker.
Mum and dad both loved receiving the Eylog updates and would often share them with myself saying how happy they are.
I was so sad that he had to leave Tiny Toez due to moving
house but I would recommend the nursery thoroughly.

My daughter has been at this nursery since she was 5 months old and had her last day just 2 weeks ago. I never had any issues with this nursery or the members of staff.
I can't recommend it enough. My daughter will miss this nursery very much, she has made fantastic memories with brilliant people.

My daughter recently started at Tiny Toez in the baby room. I was very pleased with the service from the get go. From the time of booking on to dropping my daughter off each day, everything is perfect.
The staff are really friendly and welcoming and have supported me and my daughter, as she has quite
severe allergies I am super impressed with the way staff manage this, as it hasn't been easy for us.
I receive lovely daily photos and diary's from my child's key worker with whom she has bonded really well.
The management are brilliant and the lady in the office is very pleasant and helpful.
I can highly recommend Tiny Toez as a childcare provider.

Staff make the most of the space they have and children are engaged and happy. My 18-month-old enjoys going and is encouraged to be his confident self. He is our second child to attend Tiny Toez and we have no cause for complaint. Staff are friendly and approachable and form great relationships with
the children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has attended Tiny Toez full time from 9 months old. Staff ae always friendly, kind and supportive of my daughter in every way. At each stage of her development, she has been assigned a new key worker who has always encouraged her interests. After talking to friends and family with children
of a similar age to our daughter, it is obvious that staff go above and beyond what is expected from a childcare provider. Communication is excellent and supported by an app to monitor your child's' progress as well as parent's evenings. Our little one loves going to nursery and talks about what she has been up to each day and gets excited to tell her key worker about her new achievements, she enjoys the homemade meals and the outdoor space. Couldn't recommend this nursery enough and we will all be very sad when we move on to reception class in September, but ever grateful that our daughter is fully prepared for 'big school' with the help of the Tiny Toez team! Thank you :)

Review from Dean B (Father of Child) published on 27 March 2017 Submitted via Website • Report

We went in to register our children today after already paying our deposit. Upon signing the paperwork we noted that the nursery still charges parents for bank holidays despite being closed meaning parents who have their children looked after on a Mondays could potentially be paying £300+ a year and
getting absolutely nothing in return. When I raised this to the duty manager I was fed incorrect information for the reasons behind this, she stated "its because we still have to pay our staff on bank holiday", being a manager and having a HR background I know that bank holidays are automatically classed as a compulsory annual leave days which all businesses budget for (basically she was suggesting that parents are expected to pay for their staff to have a days holiday) really, is that fair?
I will say that this review is not a reflection on the facilities or the staff at the nursery to which I would give top marks to.

Thank you for your customer feedback, I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with our policy that our nursery fees are chargeable for Bank Holidays, this is something that we…

Couldn't have asked for a better nursery for my daughter! It was her first experience at a nursery, right after moving from abroad, and she had the most amazing support and care. It was great to see how quickly she settled and how she felt at home in the nursery. Meeting new people and learning a new
language was a challenge, but she had the care and attention she needed to do it confidently.

Tiny Toez East Valley staff is part of our family! We will be forever thankful to them.

My son has been at Tiny Toez East Valley for nearly 3 years. During this time I feel that he has had brilliant care and education from all staff, and all staff have provided a warm and friendly environment for him to flourish. Whilst at Tiny Toez I feel that my son has been provided with lovely meals
on a daily basis and he has improved in all aspects. Also the staff are very pleasant and will endeavour to help and provide support in any way they can.

The staff at Tiny Toez, East Valley do a wonderful job of looking after my daughter. Both my children have attended the nursery and have been in nearly ever room. The rooms are fantastically decorated, proudly showing off the children's art work. The food menu is amazing and my daughter eats everything
straight up. The staff are very friendly and will gladly answer any questions you may have. The health and safety is excellent and they always have their eye on the safety in the rooms. Any accidents that the children have, the staff are straight onto and do an excellent job at writing accident reports straight away. Overall it is a fantastic nursery. I will miss taking my youngest daughter when she starts school in September. Well done Tiny Toez, East Valley.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.931)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.931) out of 10 for Tiny Toez @ East Valley is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.931 for Tiny Toez @ East Valley is calculated as follows: ( (202 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.931
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tiny Toez @ East Valley is based on 18 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 18 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
