About Us
Established in 2003 by two working mums, The Tiny Toes Nursery Club has grown into the most reputable and best Nursery in Hertford, UK. We proudly support over 800 children on their early learning journey.
Unlike large corporate nursery chains, The Tiny Toes Nursery Club is a truly independent, family-run nursery. We also offer a warm and welcoming ‘home-from-home’ environment. Our team intentionally restricts the number of children in each room. Allowing our passionate team to build meaningful relationships with every child and family, altogether. Each child matters to us as a unique individual, not just a number in a busy setting.
We proudly operate as the only Curiosity Approach® accredited nursery in the Hertford area. Drawing inspiration from Montessori principles and modern early-years research is what we do. Our child-led, play-based philosophy brings curiosity, awe, and wonder into everyday learning. Encouraging children to become confident, creative, and independent thinkers.
In 2025, we proudly opened our brand-new dedicated Baby Unit, designed specifically for babies aged 6 to 18 months. We are located in a separate building from the main nursery. This calm and cosy space allows our youngest children to flourish in their own secluded environment. We offer a private garden and specialist baby sensory resources that support their early development and wellbeing at this tender age.
As a result of our child-led educational philosophy and supportive family feel, we often see children who graduate from our nursery. Then go on to be ahead of their peers with their problem-solving & communication skills when they start school.
Our youngest child is leaving Tiny Toes for school tomorrow and it's the end of a (very happy) era for us all! The team have been like an extended family to us, and both of our children have loved their time there. The staff are always ready with a cuddle at drop off and pick up and we love the curiosity approach, with the children leading the way on the learning. Both kids have enjoyed baking, woodworking (!), trips to the supermarket and walks round the park. We can't thank recommend them highly enough for everything they've done for us over the years.
THE most wonderful and nurturing nursery with the most caring and loving staff. You’d be hard pushed to find somewhere better. Genuinely has felt like a second family as it is not too large. They take the children to the castle, the parks and little adventures and both my children since 2017 have had the most amazing time here. They’ve learnt lots and adored the staff (as have we). Thank you so much Tiny Toes!
Great nursery offering a wide range of activities for the children. I love the cosy, family feel and the team are kind and caring. My son loves being there and still talks about Linda and her biscuits!
Thank you Tiny Toes for such a great start to my sons learning.
My daughter was with Tiny Toes for 2 and a half years and loved her time there. It has a fantastic family feel and the staff give there all. I am so pleased with my child’s development whilst there and we were sad to leave. I would strongly recommend Tiny Toes to anyone!
