The staff are just wonderful at Little People. Our twins have absolutely loved their time there so far in the baby room - they always walk in with big smiles on their faces in the morning and have developed very close relationships with everyone across the nursery, not just those who work in their room
(it seems like the team there really focus on developing and supporting a strong community feel). The babies benefit from lots of different activities throughout the week (music time, baby yoga, sensory experiences, visits to the local parks, celebrations around holidays/special events). Overall, we've found everyone, staff and management, to be so friendly and caring, and very helpful and thoughtful in their approach to supporting our kids' development, as well as working with us as the parents to best meet the babies' needs. Highly recommend!

My husband and I couldn't be happier with Little People of Fulham. ALL of the staff are So attentive and So much fun we feel so lucky dropping our son off every morning knowing he's going to have the best day. We've just had sports day too which was the best day of my year so far. It was so cute and
they had put in so much effort to make sure everyone had fun. Thanks so much everyone at Little People! The Jevons' family.

My 3 years and half boy has been here since he was a 18months old. For the first half a year, he was struggling with settling in because we moved from another country and he did not understand English well. However, the teachers never gave up him and always caring and supportive. That's why we did not
give up and turned out to be the best place and second home for us. All teachers in this nursery are enthusiastic and amazing. Can't thank them enough.

Our son has been attending little people of Fulham for over 3 years now. He started since he was 9 months old and will be there until he leaves for reception. The staff there have been so warm and loving to our son and have looked after him so well. From his first steps, to his first words, potty training
and learning his numbers and phonics; little people have been a great support to us. If you're looking for a warm and loving nursery for your child look no further!
They also provide lots of additional activities that my son loves like ballet, gymnastics, forest school, swimming and football.

Sending your child to nursery can be a slightly nerve-wracking moment: you have to judge whether you trust those in charge to not only look after your child's safety and welfare, but also provide a stimulating and enjoyable place for them on a daily basis.
Little People of Fulham excels on all fronts.
The nursery is managed with a high degree of control mixed with fun. It is evident how deeply the teachers care for the children day after day, when the children are happy or upset, as well as organising a wide array of activities for them. The team masterfully settled our daughter into the baby room and within weeks you could tell every morning she was excited to come back for more.
Some additional points: the food served to the children is varied and nutritious, the nursery is kept as tidy as possible at all times, and the daily report cards and updates provided through the app are really helpful and enjoyable to receive.
I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone!

Our daughter joined Little People of Fulham in April 2025. I can't express how wonderful the staff have been with my daughter, who had a difficult time settling in. The care she has received is absolutely outstanding. The staff tailored their approach to suit her needs and were very accommodating. I
can relax when I leave her and I trust the team wholeheartedly. They really listen to my worries if my daughter has been slightly unwell, and observe her so closely, just as I would. I was particularly impressed with the children's diet, an onsite chef is wonderful. The activities the baby room prepare for our daughter make such a difference to her development. I really can't recommend Little People of Fulham enough, I have been so impressed.

As soon as we visited this nursery we knew it was the right place for our little one. All the staff at Little People of Fulham are incredibly kind, loving, knowledgeable and care enthusiastically about the children and the standard of care and teaching they provide. The emails and information we receive
on a regular basis from the director are much appreciated, regarding the nursery itself but also wider education on early years development. We will be so sad to reach our final day at this nursery, our little one is always so happy when I pick them up, they have lovely friendships with other children and regularly talk about what they have been doing. The nursery is busy, bright, colorful and always full of the children's artwork, which we love to see. The extra curricular activities for the children are wonderful and they have a wonderful large studio space it addition to the rooms, to be able to fully embrace it. I feel very fortunate to have had our little one there for his early years.

I have two children attending this nursery, one aged four and one aged one, and I have been delighted by the level of care we have received over the past three years. The staff, many of whom are long-serving, are devoted to the children and the range of activities provided is impressive - the older
children do swimming, ballet, gymnastics, football, music and Spanish alongside their normal routines. I would happily recommend this nursery as a place that truly has people at its heart.

Little People Nursery is absolutely amazing! My two kids (3.5 and 1.5 years old) have been going there since they were around 7 months old, and I couldn't be happier. The staff are so loving and caring, always going above and beyond for the kids. The activities they do are way better than anything we
could manage at home and really grow with them as they get older. Plus, the food is super healthy and nutritious! Both my kids love heading there in the morning. They've made real friends and have such a great connection with the staff. The team is also fantastic with parents and have been so supportive when we needed them. Little People is such a special place, and I can't recommend it enough!

Both of my children have attended Little People, and I cannot express enough gratitude to the nursery and its wonderful staff for their exceptional care, attention, and commitment to education. The staff consistently go above and beyond, creating a nurturing environment where children thrive. My older
daughter, now in school, still enjoys visiting her former nursery teachers, who remain genuinely interested in her ongoing development. My youngest daughter absolutely loves her time there-she runs in every morning with a big smile on her face, eager to start her day. The facilities are outstanding, offering a perfect blend of indoor and outdoor learning opportunities. For children aged 3 and above, the additional activities such as trips, swimming, and ballet are fantastic enhancements that enrich their experience. I honestly cannot recommend Little People of Fulham more highly- it's an incredible nursery that fosters a love of learning and a strong sense of community.

Wonderful nursery designed to support children's developmental needs and prepare them for subsequent primary education. We enrolled our three-year-old child in the Early Years Foundation Stage (Montessori) in September 2023. Little People had been warmly recommended to us by a friend whose child already
attended the nursery. The experience was highly beneficial for our child's holistic development thanks to individual attendance afforded by the carers/educators and management staff and the variety of outdoor and indoor educational and cultural activities which stimulated our child's growth. We are grateful for the time our child spent at Little People, and will gladly recommend it to others.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.926)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.926) out of 10 for Little People of Fulham is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.926 for Little People of Fulham is calculated as follows: ( (278 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 297 Ratings = 4.926
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little People of Fulham is based on 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 100 number of registered child places is 20, which has been reached with 25 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
