Tiny Toes Day Nursery is an established childcare service provider in Lordshill and Shirley, Southampton. Our mission is to provide the highest-quality childcare and education to set children up for a lifetime of learning and success. Everything we do is centred around our amazing children.
This is a magical time in your child’s development and it’s our job to provide a place that encourages children to explore the world around them. That’s why we have created a secure, supportive, home-away-from-home environment for our children to learn, develop and grow in.
We help children expand their comfort zones in a way that’s safe, secure, and highly individualised. To ensure that each child in our nursery meets milestones, we have created their own developmental programme, tailored to their individual needs.
We are here to ensure your child receives the best possible start in life.
We also work very hard to create and maintain a positive, learning and supportive culture amongst our valued staff members. Positivity, mutual respect, personal development and management empathy helps deliver passion and happiness in our nursery. A happy, passionate, team means a much better experience for your child, whilst in our care.

Security At Tiny Toes
Tiny Toes takes security very seriously. We are one of very few Day Nurseries to have facial recognition at the entry to our nursery. Once parents or carers are registered on the system they will be able to gain access to the building - but only then.
The system also requires facial input to allow someone to exit the building, so this discourages parents 'tailgaiting" at the front door, as they will not be able to exit unless they were recognised on the way in. We know at all times who is in our building.
