All the staff are hard working and dedicated to their roles. I couldn’t have wished for a better nursery for her to attend. It saddens me that s…

We are so happy we chose Partou Quedgeley for our little boy! As first time parents, leaving your baby for the first time is never easy, but the staff were so lovely and supportive and made the transition much easier for both him (and us!) Everyone is so friendly, approachable and genuinely caring….

The manager is very welcoming, friendly and approachable. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Sometimes the feedback from the child’s day is minimal at times depending on staffing but you always get some feedback. Any issues I’ve had have been dealt with quickly and I have felt comfortable if I n…

We had our son at Tiny Teapots from 1 to 4.5 years old, and then his sister joined when she was 1 until just over 2. We only left due to relocating abroad.

Moving to a new county, I was so worried about how my little one would settle into a new nursery. But seeing her walk in with a big smile, no tears, and even cry when it’s time to come home has melted my heart. She’s always busy with fun, engaging activities and comes home so happy. A huge thank you …

I have one child that has just finished nursery ready for school and another with a few years to go. Both have built beautiful relationships with staff and you can tell how much the team really care for your children.
