My boy started the nursery in January and he loves it! It’s warm and clean inside, they had a garden refurbishment done just now. The team is outstanding! They are so warm, welcoming and great with kids. Very happy 😊

We have attended this Nursery for over 2 years and the staff have done an amazing job. From the baby room all the way up to the pre-school room, the care and attention the children get is obvious. We and the kids have formed wonderful bonds which make turning up to Nursery a fun experience for all.

My daughter has been attending for more than one year now. She attends for two mornings per week, which is great as not all nurseries are as accommodating, requiring full days only. They have a modern online nursery app, so you get a daily update of what they've eaten, nap times, nappy changes etc. Also you receive pictures and videos of your child playing and doing various activities, which is reassuring to see, if like me you've returned to work. All of the staff have been great with my little one even calling an ambulance when my daughter became unwell in their care. It is a family run business and that shows in how the children are looked after. Most importantly she loves going there and asks to go when it's not nursery day, which speaks for itself.

Where do I start. Tiny treasures is such a lovely nursery everyone who works there are so lovely and caring. Both my boys loved it there. I would recommend this nursery. My 3 year old has done so well since his been there. He has learned so much. My 1 year old was uncertain and would cry when I lefted at first but they was so good with him I knew he was in good hands and I had nothing to worry about.

We have recently enrolled our 14 month old daughter into Tiny Treasures for 2 afternoons per week and whilst its early days, so far I have been very impressed! For a start they were one of the few nurseries that offered half days, which I personally felt was long enough for my daughter. Secondly, I was so impressed with the setup and activities they do with the children. Many other nurseries we looked at in the local vicinity were more like holding pens for children with a few toys to keep them quiet, I instantly felt anxious at the thought of leaving her at these places and decided she was to young. Tiny treasures changed my mind and is more like a little school. She is naturally very sociable and loves to learn and I feel that TT will give her interactions and independence she just can’t get with me at home. When looking for a nursery, you are aware that the staff are potentially being more attentive during show-arounds, but at TT you see the children go to the staff for comfort; which tells you it’s not just an act for your benefit, they clearly care about the children and develop good relationships with them. The staff have all been very helpful and seem to be genuinely lovely prople. My daughter gets excited when I say we’re going to ‘school’ and wasn’t upset with me leaving her. Happy to update in a few months but so far I have been very impressed and would highly recommend to anyone.
