Review from Rhian A (Mother of Child) published on 9 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are absolutely fabulous - so caring, attentive and genuinely invested in the children's happiness and development. Our child is incredibly happy there and learns so much every day in such a warm and nurturing environment.
The standard of care is brilliant, and communication with parents is excellent. We always feel informed, supported and confident that our child is in the very best hands.

We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, loving and stimulating environment for their child.

The staff are all excellent with all of the children - very caring, present, and looking out for the best interests of the children. Our daughter is very happy with going to nursery, always seems to have had a good day, and we can see her development progressing well due to the care provided.

Very pleased with our nursery and would recommend.

I have been very happy with Pitta Patta so far. The staff are friendly and caring and my daughter loves them. They communicate well re what they have been getting up to during the day. They do a wide variety of activities including music and French lessons. My daughter seems very happy and settled there.

Overall Experience
My daughter has attended Pitta Patta since August 2025, recently moving up to the Panda room in the bigger day nursery site.
The staff are fantastic, and my daughter is really excited to see them on nursery days.
We have daily handover chats in which nursery staff give a full debrief of the day and there are also regular parent evenings to discuss development and progress.

We couldn't be happier with the standard of care for our daughter who is thriving!

Review from Claire S (Mother of Child) published on 18 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child was seriously injured while playing in the large garden at the back of this nursery. A cable tie had been left lying around and was pulled around his neck. He wasn't being adequately supervised and they only just managed to cut it off in time (cutting his neck in the process - he still has a small scar). I received a call to say he had been found not breathing. We had to take him to hospital in an ambulance to check he had not severed arteries in his neck (lots of broken blood vessels and swelling), not to mention the psychological effect.

The owner never apologised to us. The police also investigated as they were considering a charge of criminal negligence. The police photographer took photos of our son with all the injuries to his face and neck.

Ofsted shut them down the next day with immediate effect as there was a serious risk of harm to children, lack of appropriate policies etc.. Ofsted have allowed them to reopen but I understand they will be monitoring them carefully.

Review from Gemma T (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

It has been a fantastic place for our daughter to grow and thrive. They say a child's first years are some of the most important for setting them up well in later life, and I couldn't ask for more than that from the team. She has flourished here and all staff have helped with this since she started at 12 months. She has been right through the nursery from the baby room to pre-school and each member staff, including her key workers, has taken the time to support her, and us, in her development with many face-to-face meetings, parents' evenings twice a year and ongoing daily updates on her progress. As a teacher myself, I expect staff to tailor their curriculum to the needs of those in their care and Pitta Patta does that by the bucket load. They are caring, and considerate and really put the children at the heart of what they do. I wish there was more room to write more but you'll just have to see for yourself.

Review from Amaia M (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been attending Pitta Patta full-time since November after having not such a good experience someplace else.

Pitta Patta is what I had in mind when I thought what a nursery would be like for our little one. The organisation and efficiency of the team, being on top of every email and message is incredible, with a deputy manager who is always there if you need her. We have felt heard, and our requests have always been taken into consideration. We know she is safe, cared for (her key person is the sweetest woman, and so are the rest of the team), and learning so many things in a beautiful space where she can just be her little self.

Overall Experience

My child loves Pitta Patta. I have so much love for this nursery! The kind of care they give to my child is just outstanding. Each day she learns something new and her skill set and eating have improved so much by being here. My daughter has moved from Pandas up to Tigers, and all the staff know her name they are all so friendly. I feel at complete ease dropping her off. I would love to give 1 million stars for this nursery! The management are so lovely! The team who work there are just so kind to my daughter they even braid her hair!

Overall Experience
My children have loved this nursery. Doing drop-off has given me peace of mind when seeing my children go running in in the morning.

They always bring pictures home and hang them up on the fridge. We have also received daily pictures on the app of our children getting involved in the activities, which I can say have always looked very creative. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for one.

Review from M L (Mother of Child) published on 6 October 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter started at Pitta Patta when she was 11 months old. She has moved through three different rooms and has always been looked after with care and affection. The nursery feels like a family and our daughter has formed real bonds with several staff members which has been wonderful for us and for her. There has been staff turnover but also a constant core staff who work extremely hard and seem dedicated to the children. The outdoor space is great. We have also been impressed with the number of new initiatives implemented by the nursery, they seem keen to constantly improve and move forward. Overall we have been very happy with the nursery.

Pitta Patta is excellent. We found it hard dropping off our child at first but they helped him settle in and he is so excited every day. Lots of extra activities, very friendly staff, and always doing fun things. They also have lots of pets which the kids love.

My 3 children all have attended Pitta Patta Day Nursery. They have had great experiences and fully enjoyed the natural environment such as playing with rabbits, birds, chickens and gerbils. They really enjoyed the company of the nursery dog. A big thank you to all the staff for all their hard work. A special bonus having access to the nursery camera.

We are so grateful to Pitta Patta for taking such good care of our daughter. She has shown tremendous improvement in communication recently, thanks to the staff at Pitta Patta. Our daughter loves attending nursery.

Our only small issue is the 72-hour rule, which can be difficult to manage, but other than that, we love Pitta Patta.
