Just amazing staff, always helpful. I am very grateful for the opportunity that they gave to my special needs child. Always felt more than welcome. The staff did everything to comfort me and my son. Thank you for everything!

Reply from Christine Leeman, Nursery Manager at Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire

Thank you, I am please everything is going well for your son. We do have high expectations for all children and our SEND children have targeted plans to work on. We have just employed a dedicated SENCO member of staff who is mentoring all children's key person, to provide the highest standard of care we can.

The best nursery, if I could give more than 5 stars I would, they are truly the best. All the staff are very professional and friendly and they take care of the kids perfectly. I would definitely recommend this nursery and all I can say is they should keep up the good work because they are truly awesome.
My daughter really enjoyed and she developed a lot of courage and self-confidence. The new manager is amazing and all the staff are the same.

It's a good nursery school, it helps me a lot with my son, only that there are parts that many parents don't like, that they make a difference between countries, and I didn't like that. Thank you for your understanding.

Reply from Christine Leeman, Nursery Manager at Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire

I am very sorry but I do not understand what you mean "we make a difference between countries"We are a multicultural nursery with lots of different cultures, we celebrate all cultures and festivals, and are very inclusive, to give all the children a broader understanding of the world. If you do not like something specifically, please come and discuss it, as we welcome any feedback.We also have a policy on Healthy eating, so children are not encouraged to eat sweet foods.

I was very apprehensive about sending my children to a nursery or childminder, I found Tiny Toez after an online search and now both my children attend, they both absolutely love it, they come home singing, dancing telling me stories about their day and their friends. The staff are amazing, they are
so kind and have so much patience with the children. My son struggles a bit at dropoff but I always feel at ease as I know the ladies are comforting him, after 5 mins he is fine. I get photos of him playing and enjoying himself through the app. The management is lovely, they always have time for you, no matter how silly you think the questions are. My children have dietary requirements and I feel the nursery went above and beyond to make sure their requirements were met. Both my children have created great bonds with the staff and will be very sad when they leave to go to school. Would 100% recommend this nursery. I can't thank all the staff enough!

I have a 4-year-old that attends this nursery who is leaving this month to go to school and he has absolutely loved it here and settled in so well. The staff have been great with him and he has really enjoyed his time here. I also have a 2-year-old who attends here in the nursery class and he has also
settled in brilliantly and is loving it. I look forward to him progressing here. My 4 year old will miss this preschool very much.

My daughter enjoys attending nursery. She has been well looked after: she has learnt some really good skills. She would go at the weekend if it was open. My daughter's language has really developed since being at nursery. Her confidence in socialising with other children is so good. She is always eager
to tell me what she has done in nursery every day.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

The staff are really friendly and welcoming. When my son started, he only came for the summer term but straight away he bonded with the staff - especially his key worker. He really enjoyed the environment and setting and looked forward to going to nursery. I have never had a complaint from my son about
the staff or nursery. I would like to thank the staff his key worker and two others for helping my son transition and settle well in the nursery. He will be starting school in September and he has already mentioned he will miss the staff. As a parent, it is really nice and comforting to know your child has enjoyed nursery especially due to it being their first time being away from us parents. It can be distressing for both parent and child when separating for the first time and starting nursery. However, myself and my son felt very welcomed and at ease from our first visit to Tiny Toez. Thank you everyone.

My firstborn started at Tiny Toez January 2023. I had never left him with anyone, the girls in preschool reassured me they were very friendly and professional. My son since going has excelled in all areas beyond my expectations. Recently he started potty training. He has done really well with the support
of the girls. I currently have another boy in the baby room who also do a grand job. My daughter I'm happy to get a place for as well. I highly recommend the nursery to all.

Thank you for your lovely comments, once the children develop a trusting relationship with the staff they usually enjoy all of the activities and crafts.

I am more the happy with Tiny Toez. My son is very difficult to be looked after by others but with nursery staff, he feels comfortable. Finally, I can leave him with peace of mind. Every day I get photos and reports of what he is doing and how he spends the day which is a big plus. Also, I have a very
good relationship with the staff, especially with our group leader. They are always friendly, helpful and welcome us with a big smile.
I would highly recommend Tiny Toez to everyone.

My little boy moved into pre-school during January 2024 and since he has come on so much. The staff always strive to help him reach his full potential. He has become a lot more confident and his speech is amazing already. So much progress in only just over a month. Every day I feel like he learns so
much and is changing all the time. Every staff member makes my son and myself feel seen and welcome. He loves going to Tiny Toez and I cannot wait to see him continue to grow with the amazing staff and rooms here.

This is about my second wonderful experience in the settling period for my second child in his first days of his nursery and it was very good for him and me. The staff and the teachers are friendly and good. My son is well settled under the care of one staff member in particular and the co-teacher.
I am rest assured as he is settled well and he is happy to go to the nursery now.

Reply from Christine Leeman, Nursery Manager at Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire

Some children take longer to settle than others, as they are learning to trust other adults, once these relationships have formed they enjoy coming and the activities. Your child has settled in well now.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.641)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.641) out of 10 for Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.641 for Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire is calculated as follows: ( (226 Excellents x 5) + (62 Goods x 4) + (23 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 312 Ratings = 4.641

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire is based on 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 25 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
