My son has come on so well since starting at TAD. He has a close connection with his keyworker, who he constantly talks about at home.

I think the nursery is very good for the kids to come to. It is very pleasant, with plenty of different toys and things to do. The staff are really friendly and helpful and take a lot of time with the kids. I am really happy for my granddaughter to come here.

I feel the TAD Centre are giving my daughter the encouragement needed to develop from a baby into a toddler. My child loves going to school. The sing-songs are great. Thank you.

I love this nursery, my son has advanced a lot since starting and has made friends with the children. The staff are really friendly and I feel I can talk to them about any queries I have. They are also very involved with arts and crafts which I love and so does my son and I think tapestry is also a
great idea.

The staff are friendly and approachable. They listen to any of my concerns and we work together to overcome any difficulties with my son. My son has become a very special little boy and loves being creative and getting messy. The displays and activities are always changing so my son is always learning
new things and developing new skills. All the children are always active and are allowed to have freedom to express themselves.

We absolutely love the TAD Centre Day Nursery. Both my children have attended from a young age and I cannot recommend it more! The facility is fantastic with lots of space and rooms for the children to learn and play. The staff are wonderful, extremely kind and caring. They bonded really well with my
children and their development came on leaps and bounds! Thank you so much to an excellent childcare provider.

This is a brilliant nursery both my children have attended and love it. The staff are friendly and my child has settled in brilliantly. The nursery has brought my child's development on loads, and she loves it.
The staff were particularly helpful during the settling in period, I wasn't rushed out
and could watch her and stay there until she had settled.

Brilliant nursery, My son was extremely clingy who will not stay at grandparents house or with anyone other than me or dad. He came to TAD and I expected him not to settle at all but within 3 days he was waving me goodbye and now even cries to go to nursery on a weekend he loves it and loves getting
his dinner here. I would highly recommend this nursery to my friends and family.

My son has just started at the TAD Centre and I originally was taking him three days
9:30 - 2:30 he seemed to get upset and grumpy about 1:30 so the staff were great we are now trying four days a week 9:15 - 1pm which seems to suit better. He still gets upset when I leave him but is starting to settle
and is a happy chappy when I pick him up. The staff seem lovely and always inform me how he has been, what he had for dinner and what he has been doing during the time he is there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.866)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.866) out of 10 for TAD Centre Day Nursery 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 65 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 64 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 4.866 for TAD Centre Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (681 Excellents x 5) + (88 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 777 Ratings = 4.866

  • 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 TAD Centre Day Nursery is based on 64 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 106 number of registered child places is 21.2, which has been reached with 64 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.

Hello, I'm Sally.
I have worked in childcare for 17 years here at Tad centre Children's Day Nursery. I take pride in having very good organisational skills and use them when managing the nursery, staff, and children. I love to meet new families, welcoming them into our setting and ensuring they feel comfortable. This is achieved by having a good work ethic and working attentively with the team to ensure all rooms provide fun, stimulating, and safe environments. I believe having a strong team helps children achieve their individual learning goals by working together and working alongside parents and families collectively.
