About this day nursery

Tiny Toez @ East Valley offers a stimulating and secure environment in Stoke-on-Trent for children aged 12 weeks to 5 years. Embracing the Curiosity Approach, the nursery focuses on child-led learning, fostering exploration and discovery through thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor spaces.

The dedicated staff team prioritises safety with rigorous procedures and a fingerprint entry system, ensuring a nurturing atmosphere. Children are divided into age-appropriate groups: Baby Toez (0-2 years) for foundational development, Little Toez (2-3 years) for growing independence, and a Preschool Room encouraging choice-making and critical thinking.

The nursery also provides a Nurture Room for children with additional needs, offering sensory support and specialised care. Nutrition is a key focus, with a rotating menu of locally sourced, fresh ingredients and an emphasis on healthy eating habits.

Outdoor play is encouraged in a safe, specially designed area, promoting environmental exploration and physical development. The nursery actively supports parents with funding applications, including 30-hour funding and Tax-Free Childcare, and maintains transparency in its pricing.

Strong parent partnerships are fostered through the Famly online portal and social media updates, alongside cultural celebrations and excursions to local areas. Committed to school readiness, Tiny Toez @ East Valley collaborates with local schools for smooth transitions and aims to build confident, resilient children with strong social skills.
