Highly recommended nursery. I have had both of my girls here and they wouldn't be who they are today without their help. Always willing to help no matter how big or small the problem and we always get welcomed with a huge smile in the morning.

Thank you TAD Centre for the exceptional care you have provided for my daughter. Staff always go above and beyond in caring and providing for the children. They have supported myself and my daughter through times she was unwell and the communication between staff and parents is second to none. Extra
thanks to the three members who have been stand up throughout my daughter's time here. We are both sad to leave TAD and will miss you all!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son is two years seven months old, he absolutely loves being at the day nursery. He is always excited when he gets there on a morning and sees the staff and other children. It has helped him progress so much, he is much more confident since starting there four months ago. They do all sorts of activities
and he's learning so much already. The staff are all wonderful, friendly and welcoming. He is well looked after, and I'm so pleased I chose this day nursery.

The staff at the TAD Centre are excellent at what they do.
We have two children attend there and it really is like a second home to them.
I would definitely recommend the TAD Centre to any parent who is looking for a professional childcare provider.

There is not a bad word to say. Since my 2 year old started, the staff also take time got to speak to parents about their concerns at home. I can't fault them. My 2-year-old has grown in confidence since September thanks to the TAD Centre.

Review from Julie F (Great Aunt of Child) published on 6 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I find the staff at the TAD day nursery to be very approachable and caring. My great niece has settled extremely well and appears to trust the staff whilst she is in nursery. The staff will offer advice if needed and ensure any medication that may be required is administered as and when in line with
their policies and procedures. The building is welcoming too. I feel my great niece is extremely safe whilst at nursery which is a comfort to me. She is encouraged to learn new skills which work well alongside what she learns at home and makes for a gorgeous girl who is certainly meeting all of her milestones.
What can I say it is indeed a fabulous nursery that I would recommend to anyone; in fact my nephew who is now 15 years old attended here when he was 2 years old, some staff still remember him...no more to be said except keep up the good work The TAD Centre Nursery I think you do an amazing job.

Review from Chrissie-Leigh N (Mother of Child) published on 5 March 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All staff are helpful, friendly and supportive. My child loves attending. I would 100% recommend TAD to my friends as I myself was recommended to the TAD.
The TAD is clean, warm and inviting. The walls are all bright and covered with pictures of the children and their work. Also lots of great information
for parents too. Staff are always on hand to resolve any enquiries and concerns. No matter how big or small, I'm never made to feel silly for asking, even if I think I'm having a crazy mammy moment. The outside space is excellent I only rated it Good as it could be bigger. But I've been told you're already looking into this. You are all doing a fantastic job helping raise our children and for that I thank you.

Review from Rob W (Father of Child) published on 27 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending the TAD Centre Day Nursery since he was one year old, which is over three years. He had developed all the necessary skills as per the curriculum whilst at the nursery. We were always given updates on his progress. These skills have assisted him in communication and interpersonal
skills giving him confidence in his first year at preschool.


All the TAD Centre nursery staff are very professional in their approach and attentive to all the children's needs and are very flexible to accommodate. The centre has excellent facilities for all ages of children. My son still attends and enjoys going to the nursery in school holiday time. As a parent, I feel very comfortable to allow my son to attend the nursery knowing he is in a very safe and caring environment. I would gladly recommend the TAD Centre Day Nursery to any other parents.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.895)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.895) out of 10 for TAD Centre Day 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 54 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 54 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 4.895 for TAD Centre Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (579 Excellents x 5) + (64 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 645 Ratings = 4.895
  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 TAD Centre Day Nursery is based on 54 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 106 number of registered child places is 21.2, which has been reached with 54 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.
