My daughter started at Tiny Teapots in Sep-19 and she loves it. She has had 3 fantastic key workers (one in babies, tweenies and now toddlers) who actively encourage her development. They eat a varied homemade meal plan and spend lots of time outside which I love. They have adapted well to the restrictions
of Covid-19 and I don't feel my daughter has been affected by the changes. They have a conscientious manager who has a great team behind her.

We love Tiny Teapots. The team are amazing. Our little boy has grown so much with the help of every member of the team. They are so caring towards everyone in their care. Our little boy loves his friends there and the activities as well as his favourite key worker. We would absolutely recommend Tiny
Teapots and also, we will also use them for any future children we may have. They have a fantastic manager who is very helpful.

As a parent, I can go to work with my mind in peace that my son will be cared for and loved at Tiny Teapots. For us, they are more than careers in the nursery, they are like family. They know when my son is not himself when something is wrong when he is happy or tired. Every day he has learnt something
new. Thank you for the wonderful job you do every day; you are all amazing.

We are so pleased we chose Tiny Teapots to send our daughter to. I was so worried when I left her for the first time as she was really upset but it didn’t take long until she was happily reaching out to be carried in for her breakfast and now she walks in and doesn’t look back. She is always smiling
when we go to collect her and we love hearing what she’s been doing that day. The nursery were amazing throughout the post lockdown reintegration, sending out reassuring emails and being clear on the measures they were taking to protect the children. All the staff are friendly and helpful and whenever I’ve had any questions they’ve been able to answer them and reassure me on things I was concerned about. From the very first time I visited whilst I was still pregnant I had a good feeling about it and I’m so pleased I followed my instinct. It says a lot when the Management team have worked there for 10 years plus. Thanks for looking after my little girl so very well Tiny Teapots.

My son started nursery this year in the toddler room, the staff are so caring and dedicated. We are really happy with the learning opportunities provided. Each week we see what lovely activities he has been getting up to and they all seem to follow his personal interests.

My son has been at Tiny Teapots for almost a year now! He absolutely loves it and has made so many friends. The nursery workers are always so welcoming and are doing everything they can to make our nursery experience as normal as possible throughout this time! The signs for all COVID and safety rules
are clearly displayed at the entrance and I always feel well informed by the nursery of any changes! I would recommend this nursery to anyone no matter what situation, as they are so understanding and helpful! I cannot wait for my daughter to hopefully join here in the future!

Very happy with how my little boy has settled in after changing nurseries after the first lockdown. Even though there are tears nearly every drop-off, we can tell that he’s had such a lovely day by the time we come to pick him up! He’s always so happy and chatty. Even though he’s only doing 1 day a
week I can tell he’s definitely learning and picking up things from nursery!

Tiny Teapots have been amazing with my little boy, he started at around 8 months and the staff were very warm and welcoming. We receive regular updates of his development via the learning book app. It's lovely seeing what he gets up to during the day and it's clear he loves his teachers. He is always
happy going into nursery and at pick up as well. I'm always given a rundown of what max has been doing as well as his daily cares given i.e food, nappies, sleep. I would like to thank all the staff that works with him, and to the nursery manager who is quick to answer any questions or queries, we have ever had. Keep up the good work, your all amazing!

The team are absolutely amazing, they have a very person-centered approach to my daughter. Se has come on leaps and bounds, she’s grown in confidence. Her speech, counting abs letters are really good. I know she really enjoys her time at the nursery and all the staff. I appreciate you all very much.

I would definitely recommend Tiny Teapots to others. All of the staff are really lovely and friendly, and the Nursery manager is fantastic, she has been so helpful and taken the time to listen to and help with our individual needs. My daughter has been attending since January, and it is clear that she
enjoys it and has developed fond relationships with key staff. The nursery is always clean, they offer a good range of home-cooked meals, and do so many fun activities with the children. I really like the fact that the staff takes the children for outdoor play most days. An added bonus that fees include nappies, meals, suncream.

I love this nursery. The staff are always so happy and friendly. They make it so welcoming for the child at drop off and collection times. They take the time to get to know the children and each one's needs. Used this nursery for my daughter when she was two, and now my son who is two. They went in
so shy and came out loving it and couldn’t wait to go again. Wasn’t really talking when he started but now he can say at least 10 different 2-word sentences and I know this is because of the friendly help and interaction with others. I love the fact I can log on to his page on the app and see pictures and notes about the fun and things he’s learnt there.

My daughter joined Tiny Teapots at the beginning of March just before lockdown. She continued to attend throughout lockdown and I'm so glad she did. Over the past months, she has grown and progressed in so many ways, learning, confidence, eating, social skills and I think a lot of this is due to attending
nursery, and I think she has really benefitted from being here. The staff are all wonderful and she has a great relationship with them. It's been a difficult and challenging time for everyone and Tiny Teapots have done a wonderful job and I would highly recommend it.

My son has attended nursery from 3 months old and excited to go every morning he attends. He has been in 3 different groups and loved each one. The staff are very caring and my son will often talk about the staff saying they're his friends. The manager is a hands-on manager which is lovely to see and
always has time to talk to you and throughout COVID they have kept us up to date with changes and risk assessments. The activities are different every day and the outdoor area to play is fantastic.

My little one has been at Tiny Teapots for 2 years now and I have had such a wonderful experience. The staff are always friendly and supportive and answer all my questions. My little one seems to take part in a wide variety of activities each day (both indoor and outdoor). My little one is happy when
I collect her and keen to tell me about her day. It's a wonderful nursery, and the staff are fantastic and kind

The best thing about Tiny teapots is by far the staff. I feel they have a genuine affection for the children, and I always feel happy in the knowledge that my little boy is not just looked after, but cared for. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery. My child also has special dietary needs, and
this has been well catered for at all stages.

I have been so impressed with Tiny Teapots. From the introduction days to my son's regular attendance, the staff have been so nurturing and considerate. The updates about his day when I collect him are thorough and informative as well as friendly. I really feel like the nursery works with me as a parent
in the development of my child. I couldn’t ask for more and would highly recommend.

This nursery has been wonderful for the care and early years of learning for my son; his educational and emotional progress has been fantastic. This progress has been maintained through the provision of key workers, a supportive environment, and the indoor/outdoor activities on offer. Some of the highlights
of Tiny Teapots include:
Assigned key workers who oversee the wellbeing of our son and report on his progress.
Range of foods on the menu
Continual upgrading the facilities, e.g. new outdoor utilities
Cleanliness of the whole nursery, which given the CoVID19 pandemic, is wonderfully reassuring
Management structure to ensure smooth running
I would also point out that this nursery remained open during the lockdowns of 2020, which was a great help for us as key workers. Would highly recommend it to other parents. Thank you Tiny Teapots team.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.938)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.938) out of 10 for Partou Tiny Teapots Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 19 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.938 for Partou Tiny Teapots Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (214 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 227 Ratings = 4.938

  • 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 Partou Tiny Teapots Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 19 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 86 number of registered child places is 17.2, which has been reached with 19 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.

Claire Martin

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2023

ABOUT ME:
Greetings, I am Claire, and I am the manager of Tiny Teapots. My journey in the field of childcare and education spans an extensive 25 years, and in my ongoing pursuit of knowledge and professional growth, I am currently enrolled in a Level 5 Leadership in Early Years degree.


WHY CHILDCARE?
My passion for working with children began with childminding and subsequently assisting with the running of a church toddler group. These foundational experiences instilled in me the significance of creating a secure and nurturing environment for young children to blossom.


As my career advanced, I ventured into school settings, providing specialized support for teaching and learning. I find great fulfilment in shaping the future of our youngest learners.


In my role as a nursery manager, I am unwavering in my commitment to providing the highest quality care for all children. Each day is a fresh opportunity to establish a safe, stimulating, and nurturing setting where children can explore, play, and cultivate vital life skills. I look forward to the future as I continue to support their growth and development, armed with the knowledge and inspiration derived from my ongoing educational journey.


INTERESTS & HOBBIES:
Beyond my professional life, my personal life revolves around my family. I am a proud mum of three grown-up children who continue to inspire me every day. Additionally, I am a grandparent to a delightful grandson who is two. Watching him grow and learn is a priceless experience that keeps me connected to the endless wonder and inquisitiveness of childhood.
