Our little girl is absolutely thriving in Tory’s environment.
She settled in really well, I believe this is from having a home from home environment with attentive care interactions and focus on the individual child needs.
You can see the daily organisation and genuine efforts put into to making sure the children are kept entertained and challenged in play and sociable activities.
Fresh yummy meals are made for the children, often in the Summer spending time at the park with a picnic. At collection time our little girl is always really happy and content.
The experience, guidance and genuine care for the children is amazing. I feel very lucky to have found a fun, safe, loving and trusting space for our little lady here!

My daughter started going to Tory when she was about 1 and half years old. She had just moved from India and did only speak very few words in English.
Tory Katie and John has been really wonderful to my child. Within 1 year she now communicates quite well in English. She is also more social.
It is really like a home environment and what I really appreciate is Tory sends pictures and videos of my child almost everyday. They also provide a diary which they fill in everyday to let us know about all the meals and activities they did each day.
My daughter always look forward to going to Tory and her little friends. I like the way they have planned out each week for the children to keep them engaged and active.
They are also happy to accommodate any special requests for our children and are also quite welcome to feedback.

I was recommended to Tory by a friend who also has their child with her. My son loves his nursery days and always has something to tell me when we get home. Usually it’s about an adventure to the woods, or the park, or messy play in the garden and he tells me about the ‘yummy’ lunches and dinners.
There are toys that allow for individual play, as well as communal activities like group reading and singing and dancing.
My son seems to learn something new every time he goes and it’s lovely seeing him so happy to be dropped off in the morning. He often talks about his nursery friends before bed and says how much fun he’s had.
I feel very lucky to have been introduced to Tory and the team. 5 stars from me!!

Our little girl has been with Tory since she was 7 months old. A year has passed so quickly.
Thanks to Tory, Katie and John our daughter has developed so quickly.
It’s really helped her to become a social confident baby / toddler.
She’s learning so quickly. Her speech, understanding, social skills, independence and mobility.
We get daily photos or videos of her taking part in so many different activities.
They take her to playgroup twice a week exposing her to even more people and children.
There’s no way we could keep our little gem (Minx) so busy and so engaged for so long.
You can see that she’s just so happy.
Tory is full of advice and tips if there’s a problem.
The food is all homemade and our daughter loves it.
There’s a daily diary completed without fail.
We would highly recommend Tory, and have done to a couple of friends and colleagues.

Our two children have been going to Tory for nearly 18 months and I honestly can’t recommend her enough.
The setting is ideal for playing, learning and really is a home from a home. My toddler daughter goes there 3 days a week and her development has been incredible in all areas. She absolutely loves it and is always talking about her little friends and Tory, Katie (Tory’s assistant) and Tory’s family. She especially loves playing with Tory’s teenage daughter and sometimes doesn’t want to come home with me if she’s there after school!
Tory takes the kids to playgroups, the beach, local parks for picnics, sports days etc. and sends lovely photos throughout the day. She keeps an early years book for each of the kids and updates it every night with key achievements.
Tory’s husband does all the cooking and both my kids love the food.
I couldn’t recommend Tory enough.
