Brilliant nursery and our child loves going there. The staff are so friendly and helpful with regular updates on your child’s progress. Love the app they have which updates you each day about your child sleep, what they have eaten for the day etc.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl started Teddies in February 2023 when she was only five months old and she has loved it since day one. She has built excellent positive relationships with all staff and every single member of staff knows her inside out, even those who are not based in the baby room. All staff, including
management talk to me every morning and afternoon about how she has got on, what she has eaten, how she has slept etc. Being an Early Years leader myself, I know how tricky staffing can be, but this seems to be very stable currently. It is such a relief to know how happy and settled my daughter is at nursery and how much progress she is making, she is thriving! I love seeing photos and observations of her learning and progress on the app. Thank you to all staff at Teddies, especially those in the baby room.

This nursery is honestly amazing, the staff are all lovely. My little boy loves attending nursery and his development has come so far since starting at Teddies.
He has complex health needs and the staff have been trained on how to tube feed him. The best decision I ever made was to send him to Teddies!

Teddies have gone above and beyond to help our nephew settle in and have been more than helpful with any complications that have come up. Our nephew loves it there and looks forward to it every week. They throw different events and themes all the time which our child loves to join in on.

The staff are so amazing with our boy. He is always looked after and has developed a routine. He eats a variety of foods now and is engaging with others. The nursery allows our boy to play and learn and we are regularly kept updated about his progress and what he has been up to. The nursery sends messages
about important information and dates regularly too.

My son thoroughly enjoys his time at nursery, staff are excellent in their care and attention. They are excellent in the important stages of their development and learning. He can’t wait to go into nursery and he is so happy being there. The peace of mind it gives you knowing he is having a happy time
is priceless.

My great grandson has come on really well since starting at the nursery, he took a couple of weeks to settle but everyone was very patient with him. He is saying a lot more words and is eating much better. The staff are very caring.

Review from R M (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My overall opinion of this nursery is that it is a very welcoming place and now seems to have stable members of staff, whereas only a few months back there were different members of staff on what seems to be a weekly basis.
My daughter seems to really enjoy going here as well and mainly down to one
member of staff who has stuck with the nursery in the 13/14 months my daughter has been there.
There have been a few occasions where my child has been the victim of incidents and I have been very close to removing her but again I have an awful lot of faith in this member of staff and don't want to remove her from my child's routine.
The nursery appears to do a lot of activities for the children and involves the parents which is nice.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
We have always had a very positive experience with Teddies Nursery. My daughter has been attending since she was one and is just over two now. I feel that her social and communication skills and confidence have grown in that time and she enjoys going and is happy to be there. I feel the staff really
know my child and takes the time to tell me about her day and have a chat at the end of the day.
The communication between myself and the nursery is excellent and if I had an issue/question, I feel I would be heard and responded to effectively.

Teddies Nursery has been excellent. The staff are all kind and caring. My girl settled in so well. Feel relaxed leaving her. It's nice to get an update on what she has eaten etc. Her confidence has grown and, due to the staff's hard work, is thriving. All staff are approachable.
I would recommend Teddies
Nursery to any parent looking for a place for their child.

Fantastic nursery!
Leaving your child at a nursery is so difficult, especially when your child is taking a while to settle (lockdown baby) but the staff and Teddies, in general, have been brilliant with both me as the mother and my son! Taking it slowly, helping us both to adjust! I am honestly so
impressed and grateful for this nursery and its staff! The staff are honestly amazing! They are kind, patient and caring and I completely trust them in such a short space of time!
They take time and plan and think about how to engage the children and what activities they can do to help the children!
I cannot recommend this nursery enough! I can't say enough nice things about it! Absolutely fantastic! I can see my son being very happy and developing well 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.
