Clever Cloggs was established in 2007 and uses word of mouth and daynurseries.co.uk to advertise. Clevercloggs has always promoted a family friendly professional service, taking pride in a strong local reputation for quality early years care and education and continues to do so. A family feel and good communication with parents is at the core of their ethos.
Clevercloggs uses Bowlby’s Theory of Attachment, ‘The central theme of attachment theory is that primary caregivers who are available and responsive to an infant's needs allow the child to develop a sense of security. The infant knows that the caregiver is dependable, which creates a secure base for the child to then explore the world.’
They also use the Highscope Theory.
Findings from the HighScope Perry pre-school Study found that using the HighScope curriculum had positive effects from the time the child attended the setting into adulthood, including better school achievement and literacy, more likely to graduate from high school, adult earnings, home ownership and lifetime arrest rates.
• Children develop self-confidence, initiative, creativity, and problem-solving skills
• Children learn about social relationships, the world about them, maths, science and technology, reasoning, and language
• Children develop positive attitudes to self, others and to future learning
HighScope provides children with:
• A consistent and flexible daily routine which provides for child and adult initiated activities
• Opportunities to choose, plan, carry out and reflect on their activities
• Opportunities for children to engage in the active participatory learning process
• Adults who value and appreciate children and provide a creative and supportive learning climate
Clevercloggs believes that emotionally secure children become competent learners which is why their focus is on a family feel nursery. Go and meet the Clevercloggs Family!

What really stands out is the relationship you build with staff. Proper two-way conversations at drop-off and pickup, not just polite updates. That kind of trust is rare and we're so grateful for it. Our son is only 4 months old now, and when we go back to work and need care for him, he'll be going to Clever Cloggs too.
Hi Thank you so much , looking forward to little man joining us ! Learning through play allows children to develop confidence, curiosity, independence and a lifelong love of learning, while ensuring they make progress across all areas of their development in a way that is engaging and appropriate for their age and stage- you totally summed us up !

We're incredibly grateful for finding Clever Cloggs. The nursery truly stands out for its warmth and strong family feel. Our baby girl used to be a fussy eater, but that has changed quickly in the baby room. She overcame her shyness in the toddler room and now she's just thriving at preschool. Her speech is fluent and she has learnt some basics of the alphabet and numbers. The setting is spotlessly clean, and the facilities are excellent, especially the wrap-around garden, where each group has its own dedicated space. The food must be great, as our daughter really enjoys it. The large car park at the front is a real convenience for parents, and the pricing is competitive. Chloe and her team are wonderful, so friendly, warm and fun. They genuinely know each child and care for them with great attention, supporting them and giving them the comfort they need to feel safe. At pickup time, our girl is happy, calm, and joyful, and she's excited to return the following morning. Thank you.
That is such a lovely review, we will miss you all very much xx
My daughter has been a part of the nursery since January 2026. I was really apprehensive about leaving her so young, as she was only 8 months old. The nursery staff were very reassuring and worked with me to get her settled in, taking into consideration her routine at home and making me feel at...
She has settled in really well and seems to have a good day everyday! I know that has a lot to do with the staff and the different things she does (and eats :-] ) throughout the day.
Thank you so much, she really has settled so well , three months in she's is like she is part of the family ! x

Our son has been going to Clever Cloggs for about 2.5 years, attending both toddler and pre-school rooms. Staff are supportive, sensitive and welcoming professionals. They understand the transition for parents leaving their children for the first time and worked closely with us to manage the transition for our sensitive 2 year old. From that first day he has grown in confidence, explores different activities and now strolls into pre-school with a quick 'goodbye' to greet his friends. We feel Clever Cloggs staff have always treated our son as part of the family and have supported all of us at various different points along the way. All staff have helped him feel safe, comfortable and given him lots of wonderful developmental opportunities. We particularly love the family feel where all staff including the owner know the children personally and show nothing but warmth and nurturing qualities. Thank you for being part of our family journey.
Thank you so much for taking the time to give us such a positive review xx
The nursery has a wonderful environment, both indoors and especially outdoors. There's also a massive car park, which is incredibly convenient. Both of my children have always been happy at Clever Cloggs. The staff are brilliant, and retention is excellent - my children have had the same caretaker...
The management team has been very flexible and supportive during difficult times, and that made a huge positive difference in our lives. We all truly love Clever Cloggs, and I feel blessed to have secured a place there, especially with it being so close to our home.

The environment is always clean, safe, and full of fun, engaging activities that support learning and development. The updates and communication give real peace of mind, and we love seeing how much our little one is growing in confidence and independence.
Choosing a nursery is such a big decision, but sending our child here has been the best one. We feel completely reassured knowing they are happy, settled, and so well looked after every single day. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for taking the time to give us such a lovely review x

It's been amazing to see how much she has developed since joining. She's learnt so many new things & grown in confidence.The staff put so much effort into creating a warm & nurturing environment. The partnership the staff built with us has been outstanding.

Both myself and my husband have continuously said how happy we are we chose Clever Cloggs as our sons nursery. They operate like one big extended family with high retention rates and so much empathy and understanding for the children and parents alike. My son has now been there for a year in both baby room and now toddler room and all staff involved in his care have been warm, welcoming, encouraging and attentive to both his needs and ours as first time parents. The crafts and projects they have worked on over the year are thoughtful and the dedicated outside space was a huge plus for us. Can't recommend this nursery enough.
Thank you so much for such a lovely review- this one made me cry ! You summed exactly up how we want families to feel perfectly xx
Our son has attended Clever Cloggs for nearly 2.5 years now and we have really appreciate the support and care he has had from the baby room through to preschool. The internal and external spaces for the children are excellent.

Both my niece and nephew attended Clevercloggs from the age of 1 up until school. I did alot of the drop offs and pick ups and was always greeted by welcoming, caring staff and lots of happy children! Working in a nursery myself I could see how happy and well looked after they both were. There are a variety of activities provided throughout the day and lots of time spent outdoors! They always ate really well with all their food being freshly prepared on site! I'm always recommending Clevercloggs to friends and family!
Thank you so much for your review, we really appreciate it x
I love that the nursery has huge gardens like mud garden, vegetable garden etc...
Our child has grown in confidence and enjoys going to nursery. Overall, it's a lovely nursery and we would highly recommend it.
Thank you so much - watch this space! Chives, potatoes and strawberries have been potted!
my son joined Clevercloggs at 13mths and it was the best decision. The staff are genuine and caring, and have played a key role in helping my child flourish. Although my son was a later babbler, I've seen remarkable progress in his speech during his six months at the nursery-something I attribute...
As a first-time parent, I was apprehensive about leaving my child in someone else's care. However, those concerns quickly faded as my son formed wonderful bonds with the staff. From the very beginning, he settled in so smoothly that there were no tears at drop-off, and now he's eager to join his friends that he doesn't glance back-just today, he ran off giggling to play with the other children. The nursery itself is clean, offers a variety of toys and activities for different ages. Mealtimes are a highlight, my son polishes off food he wouldn't eat at home. Overall, I couldn't be more pleased and I wholeheartedly recommend Clevercloggs.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review, we really do appreciate it !
The staff-to-child ratios are...
Garden: Huge outdoor space.
Thank you for such a lovely review, Jordan was so happy her food is appreciated !
My child has been attending this nursery for 2.5 years now and we have thoroughly enjoyed being part of this lovely, home from home community. The people who work here are genuinely very passionate and caring when it comes to childcare and they do a great job with nurturing the future generations....
This nursery is a must to visit and consider!
Thank you so much ! I've just come in from making a swimming pool for the worms they found !!
My daughter has been going to Clever Cloggs for 2 1/2 years and she loves it! The staff are so friendly and they really engage with all the children. Will be sending my son to start here too in a few months! Really recommend

I have always had a great experience with clever Cloggs. It was a recommended nursery for its outdoor space and this has lived up to expectations the different areas of play and all year round are just what children need! They are taught from an early age to be independent with eating and getting messy with play which is really lovely. All the way through my child has received a lot of comfort from the teachers which is refreshing as it is worrying as a parent if they would receive this as they do at home. Although it is not our closest nursery it has definitely been amazing for us and will be sending all my children here. Management are also very approachable and "real" another huge factor that you can have an open conversation with them is great.
Thank you so much ! We try to ensure that our spaces feel like living rooms where curiosity is welcomed and children feel completely at ease.
Staff are attentive and caring to our daughter. She has so much fun exploring especially the gardens. They visited the local farm recently and she loved the animals. Our youngest will be going to Clever Cloggs soon.
