Children 1st Toton Nursery School

We couldn't recommend this nursery more. Our daughter absolutely loves going. She is so confident now and loves socialising with the other children. The staff are really kind, patient and caring. So pleased we chose Children 1st @ Toton Day Nursery.

Very friendly staff who have helped my little boy to settle into the nursery and seem to enjoy their job, the facilities are well thought out and focused on delivering a good all-around experience for the children. The food and activities offered are varied.

Amazing nursery, great communication, our child loves going there, lots of activities, good food/snacks for the children and staff are very friendly and take good care of the children. The system is easy to use and always get sent photos of our child.

Excellent nursery. I could not ask for any more from a nursery. Has given my 5-year-old a great head start in life before going to school and my 1-year-old has now just started at the same nursery. Great staff who are friendly and always will accommodate.

The menu is diverse and nutritious.

A great nursery that our daughter looks forward to attending. Her key worker and colleagues have built up a really good relationship with her. The communication from the nursery is excellent and it's great seeing photos of what our daughter gets up to during the day. Would highly recommend!

We had previously used the nursery for our 2 older children who attended as 3 year olds. Unexpectedly we needed to put our 10mth old in nursery. We had to organise this very quickly and we were apprehensive never having ‘a baby’ in nursery before. The Children 1st @ Toton management and team were very supportive and reassuring. We love the atmosphere and the variety of learning available in the baby bungalow and our little one settled immediately. I also really appreciated the time the staff took to document all my little one's needs, likes, dislikes and routine so they could make him as comfortable as possible. I can’t recommend this nursery highly enough. The staff are amazing and most importantly our little one is very happy, safe and always has a brilliant time. I would recommend any parent to go and visit and see how you feel about it for yourself.

The daily diaries showing his activities for the day, food and nappies is really handy too. I can't praise this nursery enough, we will be moving further away soon and I refuse to find a nursery closer to us. They are absolutely brilliant!

Fantastic nursery, our daughter continues to come home very happy every day and is always happy to return and excited to see her carers. We get daily interaction with the staff including photos of what she has been up to and are very happy with her development.

Over the winter months, my child has had terrible skin with no official diagnosis or answers. Everyone has been very understanding and helped immensely with keeping track of what was happening and changing dietary requirements several times. I can understand that this must be tricky especially as this would keep changing as we had been given different information from doctors and health visitors. The understanding and patience from the nursery made me feel that I wasn't being a nuisance and my daughters best interests were important. A certain member of staff in particular, went above and beyond to help my daughter and it was highly appreciated.

Fantastic nursery! My son loves coming to nursery and so did my daughter when she was his age. The staff are always kind and friendly when spoken to and they are willing to help if we have any concerns. I love how we can receive photos of what my son has done each week and see his development progress. It is so nice to hear how good he is at nursery! It is useful to have the online diaries, so we can have a quick look at what he has done that day. Continue with the brilliant job that you are all doing at Children 1st @ Toton!

My child loves coming to nursery. She will smile when I pull up into the car park. We are greeted with a smiley face when dropping her off at the door and she will happily go inside. I love how I receive pictures of the different activities she is doing each week and I know where she is at with her development. The daily diaries are very useful so I can see what she has eaten, her nappies and a little bit of what she does each day. The staff are very kind, friendly and happy and I feel I can approach them about anything.

I enjoy looking at the app and seeing all the lovely things she does.

I couldn’t recommend Children 1st enough. My little boy always comes home happy and smiling. They always provide good meals and keep you up to date with what your child has been doing that day. All of that’s staff are always friendly on drop off and pick up.

Children 1st @ Toton is a lovely nursery. Really lovely staff, absolutely beautiful environment and outdoor area. My daughter loves going here, and we get regular updates on her progress and targets. I'd really recommend!

Children 1st @ Toton is an amazing nursery. It feels like we are leaving our little boy with family when we drop him off. The staff are all so kind and caring, including the receptionist. They recognise each child's needs and go out of their way to encourage and support them. We had the option of moving to the school nursery but we are so happy with the level of care and development, we chose not to.

My son really looks forward to his nursery days, and I feel it’s really helped with interaction/social skills following lockdown.

Thanks to all staff for carrying for my kids.

Amazing staff, who take their time helping and encouraging each child in building their confidence. Providing daily planned activities each day that my child definitely remembers and tells me all about it.

My son attends the nursery and always seems happy to go when collected at the front door. I’ve always been contacted if he is unwell or in need of medication, so I feel he is very safe and cared for. The staff are always doing learning activities with him too, which I like.
