Little Explorers
from L M (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I moved my son to this nursery after an unsettling environment at his last nursery and he has been welcomed with kindness from all the staff. You know your child loves nursery when they go in with a smile and a big wave - emotions he never displayed at his old nursery. Within a week of my son being

here, his communication has seen a massive leap which is due to the staff positively engaging with the children.

This places costs a little more than local nurseries, but well worth it to know your child is being looked after well.

Little Explorers
from Rebecca R (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My child enjoys going to nursery, since being at Little Explorers we never have tears about going in, which speaks volumes to me. They are very good at posting Daily Dairies and Observations. It's really lovely to see how he is progressing while he is there. The staff all seem caring and professional

and look after the children well, knowing their little personalities and support them to reach their goals.

Little Explorers
from J J (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Little Explorers! Our child started in the baby room at just 10 months old and spent 3.5 wonderful years growing, learning, and thriving there.
From day one, the staff showed genuine warmth, professionalism, and care. What truly sets this nursery apart

are the outstanding teachers and management. They took the time to understand our child's personality and needs, and always created a safe, loving, and stimulating environment.Over the years, we watched our child develop confidence, social skills, and a real love for learning-all thanks to the thoughtful guidance and encouragement of the teaching team.
It's so much more than a nursery-it's a community that truly supports both children and parents.

Overall Experience

We are so grateful for the wonderful experience our child has had. From the very beginning, the staff have shown such warmth, professionalism, and genuine care. It's been amazing to watch our child grow in confidence, curiosity, and independence during their time here.The nurturing environment has made

every drop-off easy, knowing they were in safe, loving hands.The team go above and beyond to make each child feel valued, heard, and encouraged. Whether through creative play, outdoor learning, or early literacy and numeracy activities, every day has been engaging and enriching.Communication has always been excellent, with regular updates, photos, and support that have made us feel truly involved in our child's development. We've especially appreciated how individual needs are respected, and how positive relationships have been built not only with the children, but with families too.Saying goodbye is emotional, but we leave with such fond memories and immense gratitude. Thankyou!!

Review of
Prima Montessori & Day Nursery
from Sophie B (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My little boy has been thriving since being at Montessori's in Capstone. I have noticed his development has progressed massively and it gives me a peace of mind that whilst I am out working that he is in safe hands. The ladies and gentlemen who work there are fantastic and have such enthusiasm and energy.

They provide me with a handover at the end of the evening which is lovely as it keeps me up to date with his day while he hasn't been with me. The management team are outstanding and have been very flexible and accommodating to anything I ask of them. If I have a question or request they always handle them straight away. They communicate brilliantly. The whole team should be very proud of themselves as they make this service such a pleasure and Nothing is ever to much. They are up to date and very modern with technology, you can also see what activities and nutrition they have had throughout the day. The manager and her team I can't give enough credit. You are all super stars .

Overall Experience

Every child is encouraged, supported and enjoyed. Staff are friendly and so so helpful regardless of how small your enquiry is.

My child went to a nursery before Prima and I had to leave them crying. I decided to move to Prima and it was the best decision. My child is happy, cheeky and loves this

nursery. Now they can't wait to leave me at the door and often it takes me a while to get them to leave!

Well done Prima!

from J B (Mother of Child) published on 27 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Little explorers have been amazing ever since my little boy started in the baby room. They know my child well his likes, dislikes, comforters etc. they have changed his key person accordingly when he appeared to bond better with different members of staff, which truly shows they always have his best

interests at the heart of their care.
More recently he has been toilet training. All the staff at little explorers have been great, helpful and understanding as he still quite young but showed a great interest.
They took the challenge on with me and he's mastered in just a short space of
Time, with constant encouragement, reassurance, praise and many toilet trips. I am so grateful as this wouldn't have been
Possible without them.
My son is now is toddler Room and is continuing to thrive thanks to all their hard work, dedication, love and care they show each and everyone of the children. It's a beautiful nursery and I feel more than happy when I drop him off in the mornings.

My son has thrived at Kloisters and pre school, he loves going and has thrived there. It's been great for development in all areas as well as his personal and people interactions. Kloisters has prepared him well for school in September, but it will be sad to see his time at Kindergarten come to an end.

Overall Experience

All staff are great. Welcoming. Professional and accommodating where they can be. Any concerns are listened to seriously with an approach of wanting to resolve and and help. They seem to really care and just generally be nice people. I have already reccomended this nursery to anyone I know looking.

It is a great place. Both kids are happy and thriving, and that's in part because if this place and their lovely staff. My only criticism is I feel the food could be better, have more variety. Other than that I am very happy with this nursery.

from S B (Mother of Child) published on 29 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our experience with Prima Montessori has been nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we enrolled, the staff have been welcoming, professional and genuinely caring.
With spacious classrooms and a secure outdoor area that encourages exploration and physical activity.
Communication with parents

is excellent, we receive regular updates on our child's progress and daily sheets which gives us peace of mind and keeps us connected to their learning journey.
Above all, the genuine affection and dedication from the staff makes Prima Montessori feel like a second home. Our child has blossomed in confidence, curiosity, and social skills, and we are grateful for the positive impact this nursery has had on their early development.
Without hesitation, we give Prima Montessori a 10/10 rating and highly recommend it to other parents seeking a nurturing and enriching environment for their children.

from H D (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

This nursery is a refreshing change from large, corporate-style nurseries. It has a warm, family-like atmosphere, thanks to its dedicated, long-standing staff. The team consistently goes above and beyond, making me feel heard, valued, and never rushed when discussing my child's needs.

My daughter

is currently in the toddler room with a member of staff, who was also at the nursery when my now eight-year-old attended. She is an incredible asset to the team, always making me feel that she is just as invested in my child's happiness and development as I am. My daughter absolutely adores her and all the other staff.

The nursery's managers work tirelessly to create an environment where children can be happy and thrive. Despite them being busy, they always take the time to talk with both me and my daughter.

This nursery has given my sons a strong foundation for school, and I have no doubt it will do the same for my daughter. I couldn't be happier with the care and support they provide.

I've had a child in Kloisters since 2019, and both my girls have loved coming here. My youngest has been through baby room, and kindergarten and is now in preschool. The staff are absolutely wonderful and cannot do enough for the children, nothing is ever too much. My girl has allergies and they cater

to her perfectly so she never misses out. You know your child is happy when they ask for the staff and their friends even at home. We will be sad to leave this year. Thank you for all you do.

from T S (Father of Child) published on 10 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I moved my daughter from another nursery where she wasn't happy to Prima. The staff were so welcoming and made her feel safe, happy and welcome. The children also made her feel welcome which I think is down to the work the staff put in. They are open early and close late and are happy for you to drop

off and collect anytime within the opening times. They feed the children decent food and give them a choice of various activities to do during the day, which is all updated on the app.
I wish I had my daughter here sooner so she got the full benefit of going here for years.

Overall Experience

Both my sons have gone to Kloisters, with one still being there. The staff are always caring, and friendly and it shows that they know each child. My youngest has severe food allergies and all the staff have taken his needs on board and always ensure his safety, whilst making sure he is always included.

My eldest thrived at Kloisters which has enabled him to start school with communication and learning skills, which has meant he has had a smooth transition. I know that when I drop my son off at Kloisters he will have a fun day!
