Lovely nursery. All the staff are very welcoming and friendly. I really love that they attend to my child's needs and help support him with areas that need improvement. My child has come on a lot since attending. Overall a satisfied mummy.

Lovely nursery atmosphere, my daughter's settled really well and loves her time at Teddies. Staff are brilliant with her, always keeping us up to date with what she gets up to, what she eats, drinks ect via the app. And daily detailed handovers about what activities they've done couldn't ask for a better
nursery for my girl.

I was very anxious at first about sending my 2-year-old child to the nursery however, this nursery is brilliant. All the staff at this nursery are amazing. They are very friendly and constantly reassuring me which has put my mind at ease. The staff are very approachable, caring and helpful. They are
supportive of my child's care needs. They provide regular updates on the app on what my child is doing throughout the day and provide feedback on my child's progress and development. The staff are always welcoming and attentive as they ensure my child is settled. Their communication with parents is excellent and the environment is lovely for the children. I am happy to leave my child in their care as I know he will be in good hands and well looked after. My overall experience with them is amazing and I am grateful for the care my child receives.

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for everything you have done to ensure my children settle into their new adventure in nursery. I was so anxious (I'm sure you could tell) as we hadn't done any baby groups etc due to my daughter's heart op so I was so worried about how they would do. I know
the first few weeks were a challenge for you and for us with them being poorly but the last few weeks they have just settled so well and that's a testament to your patience and also the quality of what activities you do with them. We can really see a difference in them already with their development and just how happy and content they are when we pick them up and also at home afterwards, plus they have always slept through after a nursery day! I am so glad we chose your nursery and I know they are going to be so happy with you.

Thank you so much for these lovely comments; the girls always ensure they plan to support development, and we are glad this is showing.

All the staff provide excellent support and care for my little boy. Everyone in the nursery knows him by name, even the staff who don't work in the room with him. The support that they have given to my child is amazing, he is coming on so well with his physical development. He loves coming into nursery
and his face lights up when he sees his keyworker. Nursery have really supported us with BLW and made the leap to BLW as simple for us at home and possible. Updates throughout the day on the app really helped when sending my little boy to nursery for the first couple of months and I still enjoy seeing pictures of him playing and learning. My child is so happy at this nursery. Would recommend to all friends and family.

Staff are always extremely friendly and supportive. My little boy absolutely loves nursery and it’s all down to the girls that work there. They’re all very caring and have brilliant bonds with him. The activities they put on are all brilliant and it’s great that they keep us updated on a daily basis.
The food they have is always a very good selection.

Both my son and daughter attend Teddies Nursery. They love it, the staff are friendly and attentive. The staff really care about my children which is important for me to know they are in good hands! My eldest looks forward to going into nursery each week and often speaks of the lovely staff and her
friends there. The staff in the baby room are also lovely and cheer my youngest on through all his milestones!
They participate in various activities including messy play, story time and outdoors play which my children love.
They offer different meals each day and cater to any dietary requirements. They communicate with parents effectively through the app and telephone.
Well done Teddies for keeping such a high standard we love it here.

I would like to express my utmost recommendation for Teddies. The management team and staff have been exceedingly supportive to me as a parent and to my son, who has been attending the nursery for the past 14 months since he was 4 months old. Their level of care and attention has been nothing short
of exceptional and I am truly grateful for their unwavering dedication.

Teddies is an amazing nursery.
Very child-centred, keeps parents in the loop and is very culturally aware.
I am very at ease with my child being cared for here. My child loves it here and looks forward to going into nursery.
The very green space at the back also gives my child the flexibility to
explore nature and be imaginative.
We love it here.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.890)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.890) out of 10 for Teddies Nursery 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 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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 4.890 for Teddies Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (376 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 418 Ratings = 4.89
  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 Teddies Nursery is based on 35 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 35 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.
