Day Nurseries Owned by Oaktree Family Group in Hampshire

Staff are always friendly and welcoming, honest and trustworthy. I genuinely absolutely love this nursery and would highly recommend it for your precious little ones.

All three of my children have attended Little Barn Owls and It is absolutely wonderful! It's an incredible preschool with kind, caring and efficient staff. Knowing that the people taking care of your child are giving them the best care and experiences is all you can ask for. I highly recommend Little Barn Owls to anyone whos looking for somewhere awesome for their little one.

My twins absolutely love Little Barn Owls, as did my oldest son who joined as soon as it opened! All the staff are lovely and so caring, we have never had any problems. Communication is great and nothing is too much to ask.

Really friendly staff and make you feel welcome from the first day. A great team that keeps you updated with what your child has been up to in the day. My child always comes out bouncing to show me what he had made or what he has been up to. Thank you.

Little Barn Owls have been absolutely amazing for our son and we could not rate the highly enough. They have been wonderful and getting to know our son and really understand him. They keep excellent communication links between parents and staff and our son is always so happy to walk in every morning and tell us what lovely things he has done at the end of each day there.

The staff are so accommodating to all the children's needs, you can see it's not just a job they generally care for each child, they also have so much time for the parents and always offer their time and a chat if they need to. My son is thriving there and loves going, after being at another nursery, the difference to how he is now, making friends, and enjoying his time goes to show they are fantastic at their job, the nursery setting is lovely, with a great variety of toys to suit a wide range of children's interest, all the staff are friendly, smiley and chatty, I highly recommend it.

Fantastic nursery with amazing friendly staff. My little boy loves going and always tells me about his fun filled day. The staff are all so helpful and are amazing with the children. They always do something different each day. I will be sending my youngest when he is old enough to go. Can't praise and thank the staff enough for everything they have done and continue to do.

My child settled so well as soon as she joined Little Barn Owls Pre-school and she's always willing to go in. It's not bad at all for children, the teachers are always polite when giving feedback, I have never experienced any negativity.

Couldn't ask for a better experience of playschool for you son. Very attentive always welcoming, at pick up they always tell me how his day was and my son is happy to tell me who he played with and what he has done.

My son has been attending the nursery now for three months and he absolutely loves it! We moved him from his previous one which he had attended since a baby and I was worried about the transition, but the staff could not have been better. He adores all the staff there and I couldn't recommend the nursery more.

Both of my kids have been to this nursery and had amazing experiences. Would recommend again and again. The staff are brilliant. Both children learnt so much whilst also having a great time. Communication between staff and parents is good and they really do try to help in any way. They are compassionate and go above for the children.

The staff are very friendly and approachable. I have seen a big difference in my daughter since coming. Her confidence has grown and she loves to come and play. She has met and made a lot of friends already who I am sure will go to her primary school (when the time comes). Thank you Little Barn Owls for bringing out the best in my little girl.

An amazing preschool with key workers who are really supportive, encouraging and care about the children. My daughter has progressed a lot in her confidence and social capabilities since she has been attending.

After returning to work we needed to find a nursery for my daughter to go to once a week for the day. They invited us for a tour which was fantastic and answered all the questions we had. From her first day, she has loved playing and exploring.

When he began at nursery he was incredibly shy and lacked social and communication skills. He depended entirely on an adult to engage in the basic of activities and tasks. With the hard work and dedication of the staff, he is now able to converse with both adults and children and join in with some activities and games. Staff are accommodating if we need to change anything due to his own routines and communication is excellent. He gets up every morning excited to be going to nursery. I would highly recommend.

Our children have been going to Dinky Ducks since late 2015 and I cannot fault their care and attention. The baby room in particular is such a great facility. The children are well cared for, have so many things they can explore independently and the staff take real pride in their attention to each child. The toddler room can seem a little overwhelming but it is extremely well organised and both of my children came on leaps and bounds when they moved up. My son, who still attends, runs in happily every day and comes home messy and tired, which to me signifies a great day! The available hours are really helpful for anyone who has to start work early or finish later than usual, and the fees are very reasonable indeed. We have been extremely happy with our choice of childcare and will be very sad when my son leaves in summer 2022!

I can not recommend this preschool enough. The setting itself is lovely with a wonderful outside space and a variety of toys and activities. My son was two when starting and had previously had separation anxiety and what with the first lockdown I was really apprehensive how he would settle, however, the manager and her team were amazing while he was settling in and it did not take long for my son to love it. The staff are friendly and caring and give detailed handovers. Nothing seems too much trouble. He is loving his time here and talks about his friends which, given the current situation, I’m pleased he is still able to socialise in a safe way. I have a safe and happy child who is definitely learning and developing while playing I can’t ask for more would highly recommend.

I always feel secure in the knowledge that my child is being cared for and they are in a safe environment.

My daughter loved it here, the key workers are so loving and caring and it's everything you would want when leaving your child. Not only did they support my child but they also supported me when needing help. I would highly recommend! My daughter left in September for school but she still wishes she was back at Little Barn Owls. I wouldn't pick any other preschool.

This is a wonderful preschool. The staff are great and our little girl settled really quick in this new setting and is making new friends. She is always excited to go and asks each morning if it is a preschool day.
