I have picked my great-granddaughter up from the nursery. The staff in the nursery are very friendly polite and welcoming. She loves being in the nursery and is always happy to go where she can play and learn. When she leaves she is always smiley and talking about her day with her friends. I would recommend
the TAD Cente Nursery to other parents.

This nursery is one of the best. The staff are great, they do a fantastic job with the kids. My son went here who has ADHD and he loved it here and now his brother goes here. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and I would want my child to attend this nursery. I can't fault this nursery there isn't
anything wrong with place. I'm so happy my child goes here.

My son loves coming to nursery every day to join in with all the different activities and loves his keyworkers. He is always excited about coming to nursery. He has come on loads with his counting, colours etc.
His behaviour has really improved since starting nursery and has learnt the consequences
of his actions.

From the first day we brought our son to the nursery, we all felt very welcome. After 1-2 weeks at nursery, my son transformed into a more confident and better person. I also recommend it to other families.

My daughter was so antisocial and barely spoke but since being here from October, she has come on so far. All the staff help in any way they can and do a fantastic job day in day out. I have recommended it to a few people asking me about where my daughter goes as she is such a happy child now and plays
well with others and talks non stop.

I often pick my grandson up from nursery and take him he loves it! The staff in the nursery are warm and welcoming and very friendly. He loves being in nursery and enjoys learning and playing with all his friends. He has been coming to nursery since he was 9 months old and the progress he has made is
amazing. I would happily recommend TAD Centre Day Nursery to all of my friends.

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.

Job Title: Manager

Joined: 2005

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.
