Review from A E (Mother of Child) published on 4 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My twins have attended this nursery for 6 months and they love it. Staff are always so helpful and friendly. My children run in at drop off and never hesitate to go in. The development in them both since they started has been amazing and my son's speech has come on leaps and bounds. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Review from Emma H (Mother of Child) published on 4 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Tons of fun have been the best thing to happen to my daughter especially moving into the pre school room where the girls have managed to get her from a shy 3 year old who struggles with even speaking to the adults, to now going in very happy chatting to them and having the best bond with her key person! I knew Tons of fun as childminders from my son and they have just bought that knowledge over to a large setting and I could not be more happy with how they have looked after both of my children!! Highly recommend!!

Review from Leanne R (Grandmother of Child) published on 16 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My grandson started last year and absolutely loves it he settled in straight away. The staff are so friendly and are so good with the kids. The kids have lots to do there and they even have an enclosed garden to play in. The staff always inform you of anything that has happened during the day and are always willing to have a chat about any issues you have. My grandson has really come along since he started here and I wouldn't send him anywhere else. He loves it so much he just runs straight in.

Review from D V (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has attended Tons of Fun since last Jan when they opened and was with them when they moved to new building too. The staff are amazing, my son is so well loved and cared for. They couldn't ask for a better setting for my little man. They always have lots of craft activities, water play, music and dancing. There's a lovely outdoor space and I'm always updated at pick up on how his day has been and if anything needs attention. I'm gutted he goes to school in sept because he is genuinely so happy being at nursery here! What a wonderful place to grow and thrive. Thanks to all the lovely staff!

Review from Charlotte B (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Tons of Fun is absolutely amazing. My son loves going every day and has improved so much since he joined in September. We was only able to sort one hours settling in session as I was going back to work full time and they were fantastic at getting him settled it took him 3 weeks to properly settle but they were fantastic. Everyone who works there is amazing from the cook, nursery assistants, room leaders to the management. Since they have moved to the new premises they are constantly updating and improving the already fantastic nursery. If you're thinking about sending your little one to Tons of Fun I thoroughly recommend it! My son moves up in September and I'm sad as he won't have the ladies who work in the butterfly room, but looking forward to meeting all the ladies who work in the next room up.

Review from Sivi S (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

A very good setting since I have known from 2022, when they were child minding. They have expanded very quickly in the last few years which needed to some getting used to but the children have now settled in well. Their catering service is fantastic. Had a few teething issues when they moved to a new large setting but they listened to the feedback and made the improvements which is appreciated. Staff are very approachable and helpful. Strongly recommend their service.

Review from Sally E (Mother of Child) published on 12 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Honestly, I love this nursery! All the staff are great. I was nervous to send my daughter to nursery who was with me for over three years because she doesn't take well to new people but one member of staff dealt with the situation incredibly and my daughter warmed up. They're very patient and flexible and are great with the kids. They're also compassionate to parents and their situation. I am considering putting my 1 year old because of how good this nursery is and I would've never even considered it with my first born.

Review from K I (Mother of Child) published on 12 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little girl has been attending Tons Of Fun for over a year. My daughter has come so far, and I've really appreciated the support from the staff. The team is incredibly kind, nurturing, and supportive. This shows in how much my child has developed - especially with her speech and confidence. She made lots of friends, and it's such a warm, positive environment!

Review from S M (Mother of Child) published on 12 June 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We were so worried about how our son would adapt to nursery life, especially since he'd always been with us. But from the moment he started at Tons of Fun, he's been incredibly happy! He's even started eating independently, insisting on feeding himself at home. The teachers at Tons of Fun are truly attentive and approachable, understanding his needs perfectly.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending since September 24 and it took him a long time to fully settle, but the staff were all amazing and patient with him. He was a late talker but being at nursery has brought him on leaps and bounds. The nursery is welcoming and makes you feel safe leaving your child. They are very good at giving information and always have extra fun things going on for the kids. Would highly recommend!!!

Review from P P (Mother of Child) published on 4 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I was really reluctant for my daughter to start nursery, but now that she has, I couldn't be happier with our choice. The staff are so lovely and welcoming, making the transition much easier than I expected.

One of the best things about this nursery is the flexibility - you can pay per hour and choose between term-time or year-round care, which most nurseries don't offer. Adding extra days or hours is really easy too, making it perfect for parents who need a bit of flexibility.

They celebrate every occasion with lots of dress-up days and fun activities, keeping things exciting for the children. The only thing they don't have is an online platform for parents to check in on their child's day, but in a way, that's a positive - instead of constantly taking pictures on iPads, the staff are fully engaged with the children.

Overall, we love it and would highly recommend it!

Review from Sam F (Mother of Child) published on 3 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Tons of Fun Childcare have had both my babies since they were 7 months old. My eldest is now 3. I was nervous handing my kids over to return to work, but the girls put me at ease and made the transition so much easier. Both my children do very well at the nursery. Their behaviour, speech and development is definitely more advanced due to their time at Tons of Fun. They are offered nutritious meals and snacks throughout the day and I always receive detailed feedback about what the kids have been doing. I can't rave about the staff enough, they are all amazing and my children love going there. Dreading the day we have to go to big school & say goodbye!
