We work hard to build positive relationships with our parents to ensure they are respected, listened to, and supported. We always welcome ideas and suggestions to help improve the service we provide.
The most important communication for us, is through our daily short encounters with parents during pick up and drop-off. Through these exchanges we learn vital information about your little ones, their routines, care needs or simply sharing a funny story!
Our friendly Nursery Managers are also always available and willing to answer any questions or feedback you may have.
We also hold parents evening twice a year to give parents the chance to discuss their child’s progress with their key worker. We really enjoy this opportunity to meet with parents; to find out more about their child, share feedback from development at nursery and help us form a more holistic view of their child’s development. We also enjoy our little chats at the start and end of the day with parents during pick up and drop-off!
We organise regular ‘stay and play’ sessions throughout the year to provide parents with the opportunity to see how their child’s day at nursery is spent. During this time parents can enjoy taking part in activities with their little one – singing songs, getting messy with an art activity, or joining in during circle time!
For a place at Tic Toc Nursery School, we advise you to initially organise a visit of the nursery. This is a great opportunity to meet with our manager, ask questions and get a feel of the nursery in full flow! We welcome parents retuning for a second visit as we understand how important this decision can be.
To confirm your place, a registration form must be completed. We do not charge a deposit or ask for a registration fee. We operate a waiting list system, with places offered on a first come first serve basis. If you are interested in organising a personal tour of the nursery please email admin@tictocnurseryschool.co.uk or call 0208 898 4079 and ask to speak to our manager for admissions.
As the start date for your child approaches, we will organise ‘settling in’ sessions. These are usually 1 – 2 hours long and are designed to allow your child to slowly get used to the nursery environment. Some of these sessions can be accompanied by one parent.
At Tic Toc Nursery School, we use a secure online platform called Blossom to record the development of your child. Through Blossom we track and understand your child’s learning more effectively and build strong, trusting parent partnerships by sharing their development with you, allowing you to be more involved in your child’s journey through nursery with us.
Sharing the golden moments with you
We share diary timelines of your child’s activities here at nursery so that you can cherish those golden moments. As parents, you can update your own profiles and your children’s information, including details such as their likes and dislikes, so we can be kept updated on how your child is doing at home.
Be more involved with your child’s development
A strong partnership with parents is crucial to give your child a solid foundation for development in their early years. We share your child’s progress with you regularly, keeping you updated and informed about next steps. As a parent, you can contribute by sending in your own observations and notes from home so that we can build on this learning at nursery. You can also see formative reports of your child and add in your own comments.
Download the Blossom app on iPhone and Android by searching for ‘Blossom Parent App’ in the App Store or Google Play Store.

At Tic Toc Nursery School, we are fully committed to a healthy eating programme, delivering a varied and nutritious menu. We have designed our multi-cuisine menu to provide the opportunity for children to experience new tastes, while still offering staple favourites such as pasta! Offering a different menu during the winter and summer seasons allows us to cook with fresh seasonal products.
All meals and snacks are included in the fees and are freshly prepared each day on-site by our chef.
We recognise that each child may need a different level of support and encouragement during mealtimes. Therefore, a dedicated practitioner is allocated to a small group of children, allowing close supervision and an individualised response to each child’s needs during this important time of the day. Mealtimes are also used as a time to develop social interaction and independence.
Tic Toc Nursery School is working towards the Mayor of London’s Healthy Early Years London Award to demonstrate that we support a healthy start to life.
