My daughter had a wonderful time in the nursery. The staff were incredibly caring, patient, and loving, making her feel safe and happy every single day. This nursery has truly been a blessing for our family — a place where she not only learned but also laughed, played, and grew in confidence. She’s picked up so many skills, from her first songs and crafts to making her very first friends. We are so grateful for the way you’ve nurtured her curiosity, kindness, and joy for learning. The warmth and support here have meant the world to us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better start to her early years. She will miss her teachers, friends, and all the fun activities, but will carry these beautiful memories with her always. Thank you for giving her such a loving and joyful foundation to grow upon. Cheers to this amazing crew 👏

My daughter is very happy here and feels very cared about. Staff are warm and nurturing and develop good relationships with the children. The huge garden offers a great range of activities and space to play and exercise, and there is a good balance of structured learning and free play. Unlike my daughter's previous nursery, staff are willing to administer medications and let us know if she doesn't seem herself despite no obvious illness at that stage. I feel confident leaving her here all day and know she is making friends, learning, and having time to play.

Fantastic nursery - and so far, I prefer it to a far more expensive local nursery, as it has a more friendly and personal vibe. My daughter has been attending the baby room/bear cubs for a month and has been doing really well. The ladies at Toddle Inn have been amazing in helping settle her in as well as to help me with my emotions. I make regularly calls to the nursery to check how my baby is and the staff always make time for me and give me detailed updates, no matter how many times I call. I really appreciate the updates on the app too, with photos, observations and details of nappy changes etc which has helped me remain connected to my baby. Both keyworkers in bear cubs are lovely, caring individuals who take great care of my baby. All in all, I am very happy in selecting Toddle Inn!

Where to start with Toddle Inn? Exemplary nursery full of workers who really care about the children and their wellbeing. They have taken every care to ensure my child is settled and comfortable which has been so reassuring to me, particularly as a first time mum and for that I am so grateful. I was on their waiting list for a while but it was worth it. Laura is lovely and has a great team under her and I am genuinely grateful for getting a place with them.

Can’t recommend this nursery enough, all of the staff are extremely lovely, helpful and caring. My son got on really well here and I was sad for him to leave. The girls tried hard with him as he was a picky eater and got him to try different foods. We will definitely miss this place and Yusuf talks about the girls in the toddler room still, nick nack, daisy and Courtney :)
