About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

I was so happy when my second child could also have a place, he has been going for 6 months now and enjoys it too. His key workers are very proactive and always ensure they speak with me or my partner at the beginning and end of the day. The communication between the nursery and parents is really good which is always helpful when the little one is poorly.
The provision at the nursery always looks great both inside and out. I would recommend the nursery to family and friends as it is a great feeling to know children are in such a great environment.
Many thanks for your lovely review.

The management are enthusiastic and take the time to see you with any questions, or suggestions.
They take the children outside no matter what the weather (unless it is extreme) which is amazing, and even the little ones get to go out on little trips to places like the local park, which is fantastic.
The open door policy with the slightly older children upstairs is amazing, and my older daughter could go outside whenever she wanted.
Not to forget the kitchen staff.
Apparently, my little girl eats all her dinners and snacks, and they hardly ever offer unhealthy sugary desserts/ snacks (unless there are celebrations of course!) which is really amazing, and I'm grateful for that.
I believe Tots n Tykes is a nurturing, inspiring and fun place for children to go to.

My child has an amazing bond with her key worker who she loves but also it seems that every member of staff takes an interest in every child, so they are always met by familiar faces who know them well.
We can't recommend it highly enough.

We chose the Tots n Tykes after a meeting with the Nursery Manager, who talked passionately about recognising the children's development and educational needs before moving on to the fun stuff.
The staff at Tots n Tykes always have the parents in mind too. It's lovely when he comes home with a cards or hand made presents on special occasions.
Sometimes it's the little things that matter. He has been taught some basic sign language by the nursery practitioners and this impresses everyone that he uses it on!
All in all, we are extremely satisfied with the staff and facilities at Tots n Tykes....we made a great choice.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Tots n Tykes to anyone. My twins have attended since they were approx 18 months and will soon be moving on to school. The facilities are great and location is handy and central. There are great meals provided and the nursery is always clean There are...
There are also water confidence lessons on offer as well as forestry school. The main selling point for me is the staff right from top to bottom they are first class. They really do care about your children and their development. My kids have formed really strong bonds with their key workers and we will all be very sad when they move on to school. I have noticed a very positive development from my children since attending tots n tykes and I am really glad we decided to chose Tots n tykes.
Both of my children have attended Tots N Tykes over the last 6 years (both starting in baby room around 9/10 months old and moving through into pre-school until 3/4 yrs old). I can honestly say that from their first visit day until their last day both of my children have been settled, happy and...
Both of my children have attended Tots N Tykes over the last 6 years (both starting in baby room around 9/10 months old and moving through into pre-school until 3/4 yrs old). I can honestly say that from their first visit day until their last day both of my children have been settled, happy and extremely well cared for. I feel that the 'family/home from home' atmosphere that is evident from the moment you step foot through the door has most definitely contributed to this. Every single member of staff is competent and shows a genuine interest of the children in their care. Attention to detail and the personal touch are both things the nursery should be proud of, from the food served to communication with parents, displays around the nursery to activities planned and so much more. Knowing my children have been left in such a caring, safe, stimulating environment has greatly reduced the anxiety associated with the daunting task of returning to work.

I love the small intimate nature of the nursery. I chose it because it felt more personal, less sterile than some other nurseries I had visited.
The staff are very accommodating to each of my children's routines and dietary requirements and offer feedback at the end of the day.
The transition period when first starting was excellent and both my children settled very quickly and this continues when they have moved to a different room and age group. The children have a wide variety of indoor and outdoor activities available from the baby room, through to the toddler room and pre-school. I feel the nursery has always supported early learning while still encouraging play and creativity, encouraging them to be children!

He has been very happy there, particularly in his last year in preschool where he has come on in leaps and bounds. The staff have without exception been fantastic - nurturing and attentive -...
My son has attended Tots n Tykes for two years, starting in the toddlers room and progressing to preschool. He has been very happy there, particularly in his last year in preschool where he has come on in leaps and bounds. The staff have without exception been fantastic - nurturing and attentive - and the nursery goes above and beyond in their provision of interesting activities for the children, including inviting parents in for special occasions like mother's day tea and father's day breakfast. Learning is embedded in everything they do (particularly in preschool) but in an engaging way that is led by the children's interests. Having access to external activities like swimming lessons and forest school has been a bonus too. I am really happy I chose Tots n Tykes and would recommend it to anyone.

Both of my children currently attend Tots 'n' Tykes and both really enjoy their time at nursery. My daughter has had lots of allergies which the nursery has helped manage. There is both inside activity areas as well as access to the gardens, one for the little tots and one for the preschool children. The activities in nursery are varied, stimulating and educational including build projects (in the Pre School room) such as building a house out of egg boxes. There are lots of external activities making use of the local park, library, schools and leisure centre. I cannot recommend this nursery enough both of my children are confident and happy and have made lots of friends within the nursery.

I have now had two children through Tots N Tykes since 2010. I originally heard good things about the nursery from local childminders compared to other local providers. I went to visit and fell in love with how homely it felt and after visiting many nurseries it seemed to be the only one where the staff seemed happy and engaged with the kids. I thinks it's important for children to feel at home when you have to go to work. Even though they are small I love the outdoor areas and the fact they can play outside all day if they want to. The staff seemed to be encouraged to form bonds with the children, which I think is excellent as young children need this. I sometimes take my daughter back to pick up my son and all the staff seem excited to see her and she was only there one day a week.
I also really love how flexible and accommodating they are to changing family situations and work schedules. They always seem like they are trying to help!
I feel very happy with the care and the level of provision provided for the my child at Tots n Tykes. The staff know him very well and always give me great feedback about his day.

My son has been going to Tots n Tykes Nursery 3 and a half years. My wife and I have been happy with the progress in learning since he has been at the nursery. The baby and toddlers room have friendly, caring staff and the outdoor space has recently updated for children to spend more time outside with staff. My son is one of the eldest children at the nursery at the moment. His key workers has been with him for most of the time he has been there. We have noticed a massive change in his development through spending 3 days a week with Tots n Tykes Nursery.
We have had three children attend the nursery over the past 13 years, during this time we have seen the nursery go from strength to strength with a clear focus on quality and high quality care being provided. Our youngest is still at nursery and when we ask his older siblings about their time at...
All our children have loved their time at nursery and would highly recommend to others.
