Review from Mahbuba K (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Very well organised nursery, teachers always update parents at the end of the day and well communicated. My child is happy to get into the classroom and runs straight up to the teacher to cuddle. Very welcoming nursery.

Review from Leanne H (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has returned to Little Learners South Croydon using 3-year funding since spending almost a year in the teams care back in 2015 whilst I was working! I have to say I'm very impressed by the teams' supervision and care and the areas in which are available to my child! The outdoor space outweighs many other nurseries and along with a confident down to earth managing team and supervision team I was very confident and am still confident my child would have a fun, safe and nurturing environment!

My nephew goes here and my sister is very happy with the care they provide. When I have picked up my nephew all staff seem pleasant and friendly. They always give me feedback of how well he's been doing.

Review from Adrian R (Father of Child) published on 24 May 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

They make a very big difference between the children whose parents pay for the nursery and the ones who have come in the nursery with free hours from the government. In her very first role play on Christmas time the video recording had been given only to the parents who pay for nursery hours and my daughter's one they " lost it " and they lost her spare set of clothes.

Reply from Sara Townsend, Area Manager at Little Learners Day Nursery - South Croydon

There is no difference between the service that we offer children who receive funding. In fact at Little Learners every child receives a nursery bag at a cost of £2.65 regardless of whether the child attends just for their government funding. Some other nurseries ask the parents who are receiving...

Overall Experience

Fantastic nursery - great staff, facilities and meals. My daughter loved going there and still talks about the staff and the friends she made. They do lots of activities, which makes learning fun for the children. They have days out and parties. Love the garden and the animals.

Little Learners provides a safe and comfortable environment for my son to enjoy himself & learn new things. I'm really relaxed when he goes there because he never wants to leave which must mean he is well cared for.

Review from Evelin A (Mother of Child) published on 16 May 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
This is an absolutely fantastic nursery. My son has been in attendance since he was 1 year old. He is now 4 and I can say he truly loves it. The staff and management work in complete unison and no question or query is ever to large or small.

Myself and my son are always greeted with a huge smile and always feel completely comfortable within the nursery. All members of staff know both my name and that of my daughter and we are always greeted by name. Wonderful place to grow and develop. I will put my second child in that nursery next year! You cant find any better than this!!

Happy with my daughter attending the setting. She enjoys it and is happy when I collect her at the end of the day :-)

She is able to tell me and daddy all about her day at nursery, what activities she did and who she played with and what she learned etc.

I am really delighted with this nursery, they are very cooperative and very extra cautious on the children. They always update the parents and a lot of fantastic renews in the premises. Thank you to all Little Learners Nursery staff.

Review from Louise B (Mother of Child) published on 16 May 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

There have been a lot of staff changes in the past few months which was initially unsettling, however this has settled now and all staff are very welcoming, friendly and professional.

In the past, I felt that the communication between staff and parents was very poor and we were left relying on our children to tell us what they had done through the day and what they'd eaten etc. However this has been addressed and is much more fluid. In saying this, there is still room for improvement; I recently sent an email regarding fees and had to chase at least three times and wait two weeks for a response.

I find the girls all lovely and if I had a problem I would happily go to any of them! The care that they provide for my child is second to none; he comes home happy and full of stories of his day, which is all I can ask!

In my opinion, after an initial unsettling period with management changes, the nursery has blossomed under the new leadership team!

Review from Lauren W (Mother of Child) published on 16 May 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter loves attending Little Learners Day Nursery, in fact she gets upset when I tell her she isn't going in. The staff are very friendly and you can tell they care very much all for the children.

I find it brilliant that there is a wide range of activities for the children to do. My daughters speaking has drastically improved since she first started this nursery. Such a wonderful nursery!

Overall Experience

The staff at the nursery are fantastic. My daughter is particularly attached to me and she has settled and grown so much over the past 6 months with the nursery. I think their online observation system is fantastic and enjoy looking at what my little girl gets up to! Facilities are second to none. If I had a second child they would be attending too!

Review from Nana C (Mother of Child) published on 18 November 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I can't recommend this nursery enough. I love the little activities they run for parents to get involved with at the nursery. We feel totally informed about our daughters progress (she's been there for a about 4 months now) and feel part of the Little Learners extended family. We recently attended 'The big breakfast' event and got to have a fry up with our daughter. Such a lovely idea and we loved it. I wish more parents had taken it up!
I have spoken to other parents with children in other Croydon nurseries and LL is definitely the best out of the lot, in my opinion. Possibly the best in South London (really it is!) We get access to our daughter's progression on the online learning journal, which is fantastic. We literally coo over her pictures and progress each time we log in. We don't know of any other nurseries that have this. A real achievement for LL!

LL has really been the best decision we've made for our daughter.
