My child started in October, since starting she has already came along way and is now really enjoying nursery even though she initially struggled. Thanks to the lovely staff she has been well supported to settle in and it put my mind at ease knowing I could go back to work and she is safe and happy. She absolutely loves the range of different activities and toys available especially the garden which is lovely. Definitely would recommend Tipton Toddlers.

100% recommend this nursery. My son has come on leaps and bounds since attending. The children really are the centre of everything and you can tell all the staff are meant for that profession. They have a fantastic range of activities and the 2 way communication is great. Fantastic nursery!

This is an outstanding nursery in my opinion and would highly recommend it! My boys have been coming here since the age of 2 and to see how far they have come in their development is astonishing. My youngest son needed some help towards his speech and language and the staff were incredible with him. Taking the time to have some one on one time and really being patient with him. I can’t thank the staff enough for all their hard work and their enthusiasm I absolutely love this nursery, if I ever have another child I’ll be bringing them here! Thank you!

I cannot recommend Tipton Toddlers enough! The girls here are absolutely amazing, everyone here, including the management are so approachable and helpful. They’re always willing to go above and beyond for you and your children. It really does feel like home from home. They have amazing facilities here and my son is so happy here! They use tapestry online so you can always see what they’ve been up too and what they’ve eaten etc which is really helpful! Haven’t got a bad word to say about them and would highly recommend!
