Lovely nursery, great facilities and staff. They have really helped me out recently with extra childcare due to family illness. It’s great that I don’t have to pack nappies, wipes and snacks as they are all provided in the price.

My little boy currently attends Tiddlers Day Nursery and I really couldn’t recommend it enough. The staff are amazing with all the children, keeping them engaged with fun activities and always have a smile and positive attitude. My little boy was born during Covid so really struggled at first with socialising
with others. Since being at Tiddlers he has really blossomed and I would say that’s all down to the staff. The nursery has recently undergone changes and experienced a difficult time but it’s lovely to see it bounce back and be even better than before. Their new manager is also brilliant, really friendly and will always go out of her way to help.

I have two boys who have both attended Tiddlers Day Nursery. My youngest boy is still there and loves his time there! The staff are all super friendly and smiley, and my little boy runs in each morning to go and find his friends without looking back.
The nursery has been through a difficult period
with the nursery being closed for a short time, things are back on track now, and the nursery has a lovely new manager who is happy to help with all queries/requests. I can’t fault the nursery or staff at all!

My daughter has been at Tiddlers Day Nursery since she was nine months old and is now just about to start school in September. I also have a son currently in the baby room. Over the last four years, the nursery has been through some changes, however, the staff have always kept a welcoming family atmosphere
for the children. Both my children are always happy to go to nursery and have made some great friends along the way. My daughter's academic, social, emotional and physical skills have developed far beyond what is expected of her age and she has a fantastic sense of self and the world around her, I feel that these are attributes that will stand her in good stead for starting primary school in September. My son is also well supported in the baby room as he begins to explore and develop his gross motor skills. More than all this, however, I wanted my children to have a home away from home when they weren't with me, this is what they have at Tiddlers. They are loved and that is key for me.

When looking for a nursery to put my 15 month old little boy in, I was recommended Tiddlers Day Nursery by a number of friends who had previously and currently use for their children. As soon as I went for a look around, I completely understood why it has such a good reputation. I was made to feel welcome
by all of the friendly staff and at ease when leaving my little boy for his first settling-in session. He has been there 6 months now and has progressed a huge amount. The app the nursery use is a great way to keep parents updated and I really like how we can put pictures and updates on of what our child’s interests at home are. Highly recommend Tiddlers, Alfreton!

My son absolutely loves Tiddlers! He walks in with a smile in the mornings, and the staff are all so kind and attentive. They work closely with me and my husband to make sure that we are all helping my son meet his development goals. Staff are approachable if there are ever any concerns and they help
to find the best solution for everyone. I could not ask for a better group of people to care for my little one.

The care that is given to my child is faultless, my youngest child goes to Tiddlers Day Nursery and they made me feel comfortable from the moment she began. The location and set up is absolutely beautiful, the natural and open-ended play and take on learning and development is something very important
to me as a parent. Not only do I feel comforted that my child is being cared for, the staff are eager to feedback on the learning and engagement that my child is experiencing. Would definitely recommend!

Absolutely amazing nursery with wonderful staff! My daughter started at 10 months old as a covid baby with no experience of anyone other than her parents and she is now absolutely thriving in the 2-3s room. Staff have been incredible. It's lovely to see her building relationships with others and her
confidence is improving!

We cannot recommend Tiddlers enough. We looked at several options after our childminder retired, and Tiddlers was by far the most welcoming environment in the area. They have a large outdoor space including a sheltered area which the children are encouraged to use all day, even in the winter afternoons
when it is dark, my husband arrived to find our son and his friends playing with torches outside! (with the supervision of course). They follow our son's interests and plan activities for him. The staff are welcoming and like a family - I know they really care for the children, especially a recent recruit who is on the leadership team. He treats my son like he's his own. Our son never complains when leaving me so I know he must be having fun all day. Any problems, the staff are always keen for our son to be happy and well in the setting. They tell me what he's eaten every day. We used washable nappies and wipes, and this was never a problem for the staff.

My son has been attending Tiddlers Day Nursery since he was two; he started in October 2019. He absolutely loves it. I have never had any issues with staff or anything; all friendly. I’m so glad I chose to send him here; it’s been the best decision I made.

Tiddlers Day Nursery has the most amazing staff who go above and beyond for both us as parents and our son.
From the day he started, all staff have helped him to settle into each room he has moved to ensure it was a smooth transition.
We have been amazed at how he has grown and developed in so
many ways thanks to the outstanding care and teaching by all staff.
The nursery is constantly involving us in his development by showing us all of his achievements and learning on the app, which is amazing.
We feel that we can approach any member of staff due to them being very friendly, and feel that they will help in any way they can. Nothing is too much trouble for them.
Our little boy absolutely loves going to nursery, and this gives us peace of mind that he is so settled and happy.
We, as a family, have had an amazing experience with Tiddlers Day Nursery all the way from when he started at 16-months-old.
Thank you to all of you.

We sent our twin girls to Tiddlers in Feb 2020, unfortunately, due to the Covid pandemic hitting in March the nursery temporarily closed but reopened in June and have been really amazing with the service they’ve provided to us and our girls. They love going and have progressed and developed significantly
since going to nursery. Personally, I like it because they have small groups of children split by their age and they move into a new group as they get older. At other nurseries, it’s a free for all and an accident waiting to happen. They also have loads of space indoors as well as outdoors again unlike some smaller nurseries that are converted bungalows for example. The staff are amazing and a real credit, they don’t have a high turnover of staff which speaks volumes and the manager is brilliant too. They eat lovely home-cooked meals and generally have a great time. Will recommend them for definite.

My daughter has been going to this nursery now for coming up to three years. I have never had a problem and if I have had any enquiries after speaking to the team, they have sorted it straight away. The staff are fantastic and I could not recommend the nursery enough. Nothing ever seems too much for
them and they are all very approachable. I can't pick any faults and my daughter loves going each day which is very nice to see.

Tiddlers is a fantastic place. Both my daughter and son have attended and love it. The staff are amazing. I know how nurturing they are of all the children because of the bonds they have formed with mine and with me. They always make time to talk to parents and seem to really get to know the children
very quickly. It does feel like being part of a big family. Both my children have been encouraged to grow and develop at Tiddlers Day Nursery, and they have thrived there. In these uncertain times, we just want to say thanks to all the staff at Tiddlers for doing such a fantastic job in such difficult circumstances. I know how challenging it has been to get everything in place and we are really grateful for everything you are doing to keep our son happy and safe in Nursery. We never worry about him when he is in your care! I cannot recommend Tiddlers highly enough. I couldn’t ask for a more caring, nurturing Nursery with such genuinely dedicated, professional and passionate staff.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.924)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.924) out of 10 for Partou Field View Day Nursery & Pre-School 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.924 for Partou Field View Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (121 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 131 Ratings = 4.924
  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 Partou Field View Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on 11 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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 11 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.
