Toad Hall Wellingborough Nursery is in the heart of Glenvale Park, the new housing development in Wellingborough. The team are passionate about offering high quality early years childcare for children aged 3 months to 5 years.

The nursery is made up of 3 large, bright and spacious rooms, each catering to a different age group which enables them to provide facilities and resources for the right age and stage of each child. The nursery is on one level with free-flow access to the beautiful large purpose-built garden.

Weekly activities are planned for the children around their interests, utilising their state-of-the-art facilities both inside and outside. An allotment is being added in the new year to the garden so the children can grow fresh food and learn all about the importance of healthy eating and nature.

Absolutely love it. I was very, very picky when searching for nurseries, and it hasn't disappointed. Yes, it has some niggles, but on the whole, the staff are amazing, the new management team are honestly incredible, and we and our child couldn't be happier.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughters been attending Toad Hall since she turned 1 in 09/24. She always seems happy when we pick her up.
She's developed really well from walking to speaking.
They do varied activities from painting/oat/cornflour play, to activities outside like climbing/water play.
They have a big garden, the
biggest we seen when viewing other places. They're in the process of improving the area by getting a bug farm, improving their planting area, & better/bigger mud kitchen, & more.
They have 3 menus in rotation which change around Summer & Winter. They do a vegetarian day once a week which I like.


They've been impacted by the national childcare staffing issue, but they're doing their best with what they have.
There's a new management team which should only improve this Nursery overall, including improved staff recognition.


H.O's communication could be better at times i.e. sharing fee changes. They've just started using an app. But this isn't a reflection of this specific Nursery location!

From the second we walked into the building we knew this is where we want our son to go. A brand new setting with absolutely fabulous and welcoming staff I am in no fear of my child's care. To top it off they got GOOD rating from OFSTED within the first year of opening. The menus are incredibly varied
and caters to all, I am very pleased to say my son loves it here he's been attending since September 2024 and has learned so much already. We also enjoy the parents parties/events every couple of months it's great to feel included.

I can't praise this nursery enough, my daughter is in preschool owls and my son is in little toads. They are both always so happy and excited to go to nursery, running in and up to their teachers. The facilities are excellent and staff are so kind. They have both come along a lot in their learning which
I know is encouraged so much by the nursery, helping them always learn and take their next steps. I feel very lucky to know my children are so well looked after and cared for. Thank you everyone at Toad Hall Wellingborough!

I am so pleased I chose this nursery for my daughter. She has been attending since September and absolutely loves being there. All staff are extremely professional, very friendly and approachable. There are so many activities on offer to her - sand, foam, paint etc. I really appreciate the time dedicated
to hand overs both at drop off and pick up. I feel very comfortable leaving her in this safe and nurturing environment.

My son joined recently after the nursery just opened and he absolutely loves it. He's always very excited to go in the mornings and makes dropping him off all the easier. They've got a great set up there and the staff are welcoming and excellent at their jobs. Would recommend, it and have done it repeatedly.

My son has settled so well into the nursery and has made good relationships with staff and children during this time. I have seen the confidence in him grow since starting and how his development has improved. The staff are really caring and considerate and are always happy to answer any questions I
may have.

My daughter joined in December last year when the new nursery opened. My heart fills with joy every day when I drop and pick her up. It's run by amazing management and the staff is very well trained. You will be so happy to join this nursery. I wish I could be a toddler again and join this wonderful
care.

My daughter has recently joined this brand new nursery and she has settled in so well. From the get-go, all the staff have been so welcoming and assuring. As a parent, it is really reassuring to feel like all the staff know and care about her. You would never have known they've only just opened as it
already feels like one big family. The nursery is beautiful and a lot of thought has gone into the design and resources.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.408)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.408) out of 10 for Toad Hall Nursery Wellingborough 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 10 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 4.908 for Toad Hall Nursery Wellingborough is calculated as follows: ( (110 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.908
  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 4.5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Toad Hall Nursery Wellingborough is based on 10 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.5
  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.
