Little House offers a safe, nurturing environment providing great learning opportunities for my three-year-old. The nursery staff are caring and genuinely try to get the best out of the children. The nursery is a perfect size for those children who are on the shyer side.

Overall, I have been very impressed with Little House. My child started there a few months ago and the staff have been very welcoming and friendly and she's always happy to see them all. The nursery does a great job at engaging the kids in a variety of activities from sports day to music to arts and
crafts. The music, in particular, is a favourite for my child who has taught me a few new songs. In addition, the room is filled with lots of great toys and different stations that are perfect for her age. The manager there is fantastic and clearly on top of all of the activities. We have been really pleased so far and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Since our daughter started at Little House around 3 months ago after we moved to the Wimbledon Park area, she's been really happy and is not reluctant to go to nursery anymore as she's been in the past. The Preschool staff have been very patient and caring with her. There is a nice small group of children.
It doesn't feel crowded and the preschool room opens on the garden where they grow veggies. Staff at Little House are amazing. I always have a detailed 'report' (conversation) at the end of the day. There is a friendly and warm atmosphere. Lots of activities with the children: learning sounds, writing practice, learning about the world/languages, music lessons, sports lessons, seasonal crafts, cooking, show and tell, a bit of homework for preschoolers which my daughter is always happy to do. I would certainly recommend this nursery!

Little House offers my three-year-old son a nurturing environment with a focus on his development. His day is varied allowing him plenty of free play, gardening and physical activity. I am extremely impressed with his key worker, who has focused on his preparation for school with fantastic results.
My second child will be attending Little House very soon and I have no concerns that it will be a happy place for him.

My daughter absolutely loves Little House and I am seriously impressed with the nursery too! The staff are so caring and attentive to my daughter - exactly what I would expect from a top nursery. The activities, food, facilities and care are excellent and I am so happy she is there. There is a really
nice aura to Little House and when I do drop off and pick up we are always given a lovely welcoming - a truly fabulous nursery and one which I would highly recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been in the baby room at Little House for a year now and he loves it. It took him a while to settle as he was quite young when he started, but the staff has always been very supportive and nurturing towards him. Now he smiles when he comes in and is generally reluctant to leave at the end
of the day. The new management have been fantastic and are always keen to receive feedback and act on them. We love the staff and although there have been staff changes in recent months, it is no less or more than other nurseries and they always try to find suitable replacements. We also love the new look of the nursery after the recent refurbishment with all the new resources.

Little House is a wonderful nursery - the staff are very caring and nurturing and the manager and one particular member of staff are fantastic. We received regular feedback on our sons and any concerns are raised with parents quickly and efficiently. The staff have been amazing in the pre-school room
and our son has developed impressively as a result of their hard work. Little House has undergone an impressive refurbishment recently and is much improved as a result.

Our daughter enjoys her time at Little House and is learning and preparing for school in a few months. She enjoys the music and dance classes in particular as well as sports and gardening.
We have been extremely impressed by the new manager who has completely turned the nursery around after a period
of turmoil following a change in management.
The nursery staff are warm, caring and nurturing and provide excellent care to the children.
We are pleased to see the completion of the refurbishment of the nursery setting which has made a big improvement and commend the manager for seeing that through.

My daughter loves coming into Little House! I can see that she loves the place and the lovely teachers who look after her. She always has loads of fun but seems to be learning stuff at the same time - telling me lots about nature and all the books she's read. Lovely, lovely nursery! Thank you for looking
after her so well.

We are very happy with our daughter's progress at Little House. She has settled well and clearly, enjoys her time at nursery, the staff, activities and the friends she has made. The new initiatives are also great for her learning (eg self-registration) and she is always excited to do her homework on
the weekends. The refurbishment of the nursery seems to us, a big success and we are very pleased with the focus on the garden. Altogether, we feel confident leaving her daily, knowing she is safe, well cared for and happy.

Our daughter is very happy at Little House. She has received excellent care for over three years from the staff who show great warmth and genuine love for their job. The community between the parents, nursery staff and children is very special and recent initiatives by the new manager of Little House
have made a big difference. The children have access to great resources and teaching, aiding their development.

The last year has been a challenge for Little House with lots of staff and management changes. It finally feels that the new management are providing strong support and leadership which is reflecting across the nursery. Our son is generally very happy to go to nursery and loves the staff who overall
provides an excellent, kind and nurturing support for him

I feel that Little House staff have become more attentive, motivated and involved in the past few months. I would also commend ICP on the physical transformation of the space.
The one on one attention for our daughter is also appreciated.

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.351)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.351) out of 10 for Little House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.706 for Little House is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 34 Ratings = 4.706
  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 3.645 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little House is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 38 number of registered child places is 7.6. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.6 = 0.395
  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.
