My experience with the nursery and the staff is excellent my son gets excited to go nursery where he plays learn new skills every day the staff is always helpful and welcoming and are well trained in their own areas.
Thank you for the positive feedback. Your kind comments mean a great deal to the team and reflect the care and commitment we put into supporting all of our children. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences.
Amazing nursery and staff members, very careful and dedicated, at first I was worried that my son was too little, as he was only 8 months when we started nursery. He loves it and smiles every time I leave him at the nursery and even cries when I take it home. Kids in the nursery seem very happy and outgoing and I totally think it is the merit of the staff members.
Thank you for your review. We are very happy that we exceeded your expectations. We really aim to ensure all of our children are happy, safe and learning. Thank you!
All i want for my child is a caring environment where she can socialise, play and learn. I found everything i was looking for at Little Pioneers. My daughter has an amazing keyworker who closely watches her development and communicates with me on a regular basis. My daughter loves her so much that everynight before she goes to sleep she says goodnight to her and all her friends at the nursery. The office staff go out of their way to help us arrange extra sessions. I think the nursery would probably benefit from hiring more permanent staff, and a sensory room.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are glad that your daughter enjoys the nursery and has built strong bonds with her keyworker. We are actively recruiting for more staff to join our team.
The staff at Little Pioneers Maida Vale are so wonderful. My daughter has recently started and settled really quickly and seems to really enjoy her time there. Thank you so much for all you do for her!
Thank you very much for your kind words. We are so happy your daughter has settled and loves attending our nursery.
My daughter goes to the nursery for more than a year and she is so happy when she is there! She has developed herself in different kind of areas and she is completely different from the time that she initially joined. I highly recommend this place.
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're so pleased to hear you've had a wonderful experience at our nursery.
My daughter has attended the Co-op Nursery since she was 2 and a half and i must say my favourite thing is the staff, they're loving, caring and made my daughter feel like she had a home away from home. From a 2 and a half year old who doesnt trust people easily and very aware of who to give her time and attention to, to a confident almost 4 year old who at times rather stay at nursery when i come to pick up. Shes built amazing bonds with staff from both 2 year room and pre-school room even down to the admin team. She enjoys playing with her peers and is encouraged to be herself and feels safe. For me knowing my daughter was safe and happy was really important as it was my first time leaving her with non family. I knew that the co-op Maida vale was excellent when my daughter tells me to put an alarm for Pre-school as she doesn't want to miss a day and tells me she loves her key person. Thank you !
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you have had a positive experience at our nursery
The space feels welcoming, spacious, and always clean and tidy, with lots of natural light. The mentors and carers are genuinely kind, attentive, and really engage with the children. Regular updates through the app are reassuring when you're away from your child, and the parent activities they organise regularly are a thoughtful touch.
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you have had a positive experience at our nursery
The facilities are excellent, with plenty of space, modern equipment and thoughtfully designed areas for both learning and fun. The activities are varied and engaging, helping our daughter develop new skills and confidence.
It's clear that the team at Little Pioneers genuinely cares about the children and their development. Communication with parents is also great, keeping us informed and involved every step of the way.
We highly recommend Little Pioneers to any parents looking for a supportive and inspiring place for their little ones!
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you have had a positive experience at our nursery.
Fantastic experience. Our son has been in the 0-1 year old room since November, he has a great time and the staff are very caring and tailor their approach to our son and his needs. The building and management are great.
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you have had a positive experience at our nursery.
We're very happy with the nursery including the facilities, the activities, the staff. We receive a lot of pictures (almost every day) and the staff is in touch with us regularly through the app. The staff is very flexible and understanding. Our daughter has adapted very quickly and is very happy.
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you have had a positive experience at our nursery.
The mentors and carers in the rooms are so kind and caring and engaging with the children and the setting is inviting, spacious and clean and tidy with lots of natural daylight. Regular updates on the app are a comfort when you are away from your child and regular parent activities are organised to make you feel a part of the nursery community.
Thank you for your review and kind words. We always aim to ensure our parent partnership is strong and stable throughout the nursery. We hope to see you at more events!
My nephew is so happy here. I pick him up and he is never upset. He is always happy. The staff are very friendly and tell me every day what he has been doing. The new look is amazing of the nursery. The best in the area.
Thank you for your kind review. We are ecstatic to know you are satisfied with our services provided for your nephew. We are also glad you love our new look as Little Pioneers.
My child is very happy here. He learns new things every day. He loves his key person and all the other carers. He enjoys the food and never wants to leave at the end of the day. The staff are amazing.
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you have had a positive experience at our nursery.
The staff are amazing, very kind to the children. They track the children's development very closely, always creating activities to enhance it. It was recently renovated and the installations now are even better.
Thank you very much for your kind review. Our staff work extremely hard and really have the children’s best interests at heart. We are also very happy you like our newly refurbished look.
We are very happy with the care at the nursery. Our son was very upset at first for drop off but very quickly he settled and is so happy to go in. Special thank you to his key person and room manager. You do a very special and hard job, we really appreciate it.
Thank you for your review. We are happy that you have been satisfied with the settling in experience at the nursery. The staff really go over and beyond to ensure the children have a positive experience and enjoy their time here.
Little one is so happy here. He's always learning new things every day and it amazes me. The staff are lovely and really treat the kids like their own. It is very family-orientated here. The children are challenged in their learning and have stimulating environments. The refurb looks fab - I would recommend it to all.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We are glad that you are satisfied with our services and the care we provide for your grandchild.
There is only one disappointing observation.
I would have regular reports and feedback only a couple of times and only from the room manager.
The rest of the time, the staff looked very confused or knew nothing when I asked about how baby was, whether was he happy or had eaten etc. But otherwise, he seems to be happy and becoming more and more comfortable.
I would appreciate it if I could have more reports or one-on-one chats with the staff who are taking care of my son.
We are happy your son has settled well and you had a good experience around the settling-in.
I have had both my children at the nursery since they were 1 year of age. We are very happy with the care and service provided, and most importantly, we feel the support and care from the staff and management. Me and my partner, we highly recommend the nursery to every parent who needs help with their child care as they can rely on extended hours and full-year access to the service. Thank you, team!
Thank you so much for your kind review. We are very proud of our team; the care and education they deliver to the children in our setting really reflect through the children's learning. Thank you for trusting us!
We've had an excellent ride at the Co-op Childcare Maida Vale nursery! We've been going for 6+ years with our two daughters and we have been consistently impressed with the kindness and patience of the staff. They really care about the children and have certainly taught our daughter incredible skills and values. The admin team is equally amazing, always available for a chat and we felt they really listened to what we had to say. I could not recommend more strongly this nursery, definitely a happy place for the little ones!
Thank you so much for your review. We are so happy that you have had a lovely journey with us, with both of your daughters. Thank you for being a very open and honest family.
They are an amazing childcare provider. The staff are wonderful, thoughtful, and caring and go out of their way to get to know each child and parent. The nursery has great indoor and outdoor facilities. The nursery has helped in my child's growth and development. Our overall experience with the nursery is outstanding.
Thank you so much for your review. We are very happy that you are satisfied with our nursery and services.
