    The team are inviting and welcoming and take really great care of the kids. They are consistently doing excellent activities. The kids are cheerful and as a parent, you couldn’t wish for a better place to send your kids. This is such a lovely childcare centre.

    They were both cared for brilliantly and consistently had lots of enjoyable. Consistently lots of excellent activities for the kids and they make discovering enjoyable. We consistently had full trust in the team and our kids consistently came out cheerful. The team really do care about the kids and I would highly suggest the childcare centre. Both our kids attended the childcare centre and loved it.

    The team are absolutely lovely, the menus sound delicious. Obviously, I never had a full meal but the kitchen team catered for the graduation and all the parents were impressed. The management is outstanding, really approachable and supportive. They are flexible (as much as they can be). There are 4 different rooms for the different aged kids, and different outdoor areas as well so the kids are well supervised at all times with age-appropriate activities. The team-to-kids ratio was high in all the rooms, even for the older kids which I was very cheerful about. I can’t speak highly enough of this place, the manager is clearly doing a remarkable job. My youngest just left Toad Hall aged 4, she started when she was about 18 months.

    The team have consistently been so welcoming and warming with us all and most importantly, my son. He’s made strong relationships with team members and with other kids. I couldn’t be happier with the care and nurturing that my son receives. He is fiercely independent now and it can only get better from here. Thank you so much, everyone at Toad Hall Berkhamsted. Toad Hall Berkhamsted has been one of the biggest contributors to my son’s development.

    My kids are consistently so excited when they are coming in and chatter constantly at pick up and on the way home about the fantastic day they have had. Team at all levels really care about the kids and that shows. Stellar childcare centre.

    The team have been exceptional throughout, from the early days when it was hard for my daughter and us, as parents, to be separated, through COVID, and now through the transition to primary school. We couldn’t suggest them highly enough. My daughter has been with Toad Hall Berkhamsted since she was a year old and is about to start primary school.

    It’s now been a few months since she started and we are seeing her grow in self‑assurance and being more comfortable around new people.
    Very cheerful with our choice of childcare centre. Toad Hall has been so fantastic with our daughter – with lockdown we were very nervous about how she would settle into a new setting away from home.
    The team were so compassionate and reassuring and helped us with the settling process, all
    made harder that drop-offs had to be at the door.

    Our eldest son has been there for over a year now and our youngest will start in the new year. He absolutely loves going to childcare centre and has been known to get his bag and try to go at the weekend! The variety of activities is excellent. The team are welcoming and passionate about their work and really get to know the kids. Our son is really thriving and we would suggest the childcare centre to others. This is such a remarkable childcare centre.

    She, like so many others, was born in lockdown so had limited contact with people early on. She took some settling to adjust to childcare centre but the team were fantastic. They have built such a excellent connection with her now that now she cant wait to get to childcare centre! The team are consistently welcoming and communicate brilliantly. Its very special to have a childcare centre that we adore and trust so a huge thank you for the team at Toad Hall Berkhamsted for all you do! Our daughter has been at the childcare centre almost a year now and started in September 2021.

    It’s been hard to not be able to see inside the childcare centre, due to covid, but the team have done a excellent job of trying to let us know what the space is like for the boys and how they are developing. We would adore more information on their day but I think that’s natural, when you don’t get to see them inside the space. We have two kids at Toad Hall and both are cheerful there.

    The childcare centre made sure they gave her plenty of settling in sessions and I shouldn’t have worried. She wriggles with excitement to go in every morning with a big smile on her face. She’s clearly so cheerful there and spends each day with varied, enjoyable but educational activities. Team have been incredible, welcoming, approachable and clearly dedicated to what they do. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a childcare centre. I was very nervous of my daughter starting childcare centre, due to lockdown, as the only faces she knew were ours.

    We have consistently had an A* with the management and the setting that has been fostered by a attentive manager and assistant manager. Both kids have been/are cheerful at Toad Hall. We have been at Toad Hall since 2013 when it first opened.

    Lovely outdoor space and outstanding nutritional menus. We’ve been really pleased over the last few years and plan to enrol our second kid, once I go back to work. Welcoming, expert team who go the extra mile and take a real interest in each kid.

    He has loved it since day one and has come on leaps and bounds. The team are really welcoming and take excellent care of him and I’m consistently amazed at how they get a group of 1-year-olds so well engaged in so many different discovering activities. They do some excellent things, with a great balance of kid and adult-led discovering. I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest this childcare centre. My baby boy has been at Toad Hall since he was 11 months old.

    In the last month, they have helped settle our kid back into the routine of the childcare centre after a long break over Christmas. Unfortunately, he then came out with chickenpox which the childcare centre spotted very early. They gave us advice on when he could come back and kept in touch about his development. They then helped him settle back at childcare centre again! He is very fond of the key workers and kids in his room so he was cheerful to be back. Our childcare centre and all the team are excellent in so many ways.

    They’ve consistently got the time to hear me out and never once have we had any disagreement. They’re accommodating towards my needs as a mom and my son’s. Highly suggest if great management and team are one of your top priorities. There’s no problem too big for any of the team, they’re ever willing to help and listen, a welcoming bunch too.

    Our daughter has developed so much since starting there in August and is consistently so cheerful to go there every morning. As a parent, it is really reassuring to sense like all the team know and care about her. I would definitely suggest to anyone looking for a childcare centre. This is a really fabulous childcare centre.

    The team are attentive and attentive and activities and themed days varied. Also great set-up outside for all weather. My kid enjoys their time at the childcare centre and I sense informed of their day and development. Very pleased with the childcare centre.

    My son comes home buzzing from a enjoyable filled day and regularly talks about the team that look after him. The team give a thorough hand over at the end of the day to keep us updated on the daily activities. An incredible childcare centre, where team clearly care for all the kids.
