Review from Gema P (Mother of Child) published on 9 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has enjoyed very much their days at the nursery. They do plenty of activities to improve different areas of their development. They also do thematic activities according to the time of the year. Food is excellent and she enjoys that too. I'm very happy with the facilities. They also keep us update with the application of any developments. I couldn't recommend it more.

Reply from Becca Clements, Nursery Manager at Little Learners Nursery & Pre-School (St Nicholas Avenue)

So glad to hear you are happy with choosing little learners as the nursery for your family to join. It's great to know you feel so involved with the nursery and that shows good communication by the team of practitioners. Thank you for your kind words.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending Little Learners for nearly 2 years and is very happy there. The key workers really show the children love and care and my son really looks forward to coming each day, playing and seeing his friends. I get daily updates of the activities he does and how it fits in with the EYFS guidelines including the progress he is making and areas for us to work on with him at home. I feel very involved in his care and nothing is too much trouble. I am very happy with this nursery and have recommended it to my friends and family who live nearby.

Overall Experience
We are very happy with the team at The Little Learners Nursery. Since our 2-year-old son has attended this nursery he has improved and developed a lot.
All members of staff are very kind and professionals. As parents, we are very satisfied with their services provided within regards to our child future developments.
It's very important for us to know that our little one is in good hands while we are working, and this is the feeling that we have when we drop him in at the nursery.

Thank you to the entire team at The Little Learners.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for over a year now and absolutely loves it! She has moved up to preschool now and always comes home telling me about the activities she has done! She has made lots of friends and her learning and development is really showing since going to Little Learners

The staff are always very friendly and easy to get in contact with and give regular updates through email and tapestry.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Little Learners now for 3 years and we couldn't be happier with the care and experience she has had there. All of the staff are brilliant and make great efforts to bond with the children it's like an extended family. They learn and explore a wide range of topics in a fun and creative way which are communicated monthly with the chance for parents input if wanted. My daughter loves her time at this nursery and is always excited and happy to go which is a sign of how great the nursery team are.

Reply from Elspeth Paisley, Marketing Manager at Little Learners Nursery & Pre-School (St Nicholas Avenue)

That's so lovely. It's great to hear that your daughter is always excited and happy. That's what we aim for.

Overall Experience

I am extremely happy with the care the nursery has given my daughter since she started at 12 months old. She has come on in leaps and bounds and gets so excited when she arrives at the nursery. The staff are friendly, informative and extremely personable and the nursery itself has great facilities and is always very clean. I couldn’t fault it. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience
Our little girl loves coming to nursery. The staff are always welcoming and know how to interact with her.
The children have lots of opportunities to have contact with animals and to learn about the cycle of life. Because of this, our little one is now confident when I have contact with animals.

I think it's great that the children have the opportunity to learn languages and my little girl tries to use it whenever possible.

Review from Chantel X (Mother of Child) published on 25 June 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our little boy loves going to Little Learners. There are lots of fun activities for the children like Spanish and sports classes, outings to the park and local shops.

Often the Nursery will expose the children to the lifestyle of duck, chicken and tadpole - it’s wonderful to see them learning about the nature around them. In addition, the children are taught good values, safety and independence is encouraged at all times.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Little Learners to all parents!!

Review from Darren (Father of Child) published on 22 June 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started here when he was one and is going to school this year. His development has been brilliant since he has been there, he is constantly learning new things and I'm certain he has advanced more purely down to the staff here.
My daughter also goes now and has thoroughly enjoyed it so far.
Contact is excellent and all the staff are very keen, knowledgeable and clearly love their work. The tapestry is an excellent way to see what activities they do and how they develop.
The setting is clean, up to date and very safe. The garden is big and spacious with plenty of activities.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for child care.

Overall Experience

I feel Little Learners is a fantastic nursery that supports your child in every way. My son has attended since 2016 and he has really been brought out of his shell. Great for social development and to help get him ready for school. They are constantly reviewing procedures and you have a parents evening each term to keep you up to date with any concerns or developments. I would highly recommend little learners.

Our little smiler has been going here for 6 months and is now 18 months old. She has developed so much and loves the nursery. All of the staff are really friendly, helpful and our little one loves Nursery and is excited to go each morning.
She eats well, is always doing a different activity and we wouldn’t change anything.

We have updated via the app which is fantastic and couldn’t recommend this Nursery enough!

Review from Meral C (Mother of Child) published on 22 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After having our first child came the daunting task of childcare as I prepared to return to work after maternity leave. Whilst professional, the team are personal, the size of the nursery is adequate but is limited and that leaves me assured that our child would get the attention needed - it feels intimate and secure, which is an environment children will no doubt flourish in.
It took a long while for our child to settle, only because she has no siblings and we have no family here so her interaction for a long time was just with us her parents.
However, the staff and management showed great compassion and patience, they continued to work with our child until such a time where she became settled.

Now, she loves nursery. The online platform provides us parents with an insight to their days - as well as cute photos to save and cherish. It is a really challenging situation to leave your child behind, safety is the priority but with Little Learners we achieve that plus so much more.

Review from Tracy F (Mother of Child) published on 26 July 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have been delighted over the years with how our little boy has developed in the care of the staff at Little Learners. It is a friendly and well run nursery and we have been kept well informed throughout of his progress by his Key Workers.

Management are very careful to keep parents well notified of nursery developments and it is clear they are continually reviewing all aspects of the nursery with a view to continuous improvement.

We have recommended the nursery to many friends and family and will continue to do so.

Thank you to all the staff at Little Learners for making our little boy's time a fun and educational one.

We look forward to our daughter experiencing the same fun and development over the next few years.

Overall Experience

We attended an open day on challenging behaviour at the weekend. Really great idea and thoughtful to do at a time so most parents could attend. A really great and engaging time, useful tips shared face to face and in handouts, and lovely to see how my daughter reacts and is engaged with, in this environment. Such a great team of people working at little learners Elm Park we're so thankful we made the right choice in choosing you.
