What makes them different?

Little Tots Nurseries offer the best foundation for life, the Montessori philosophy is to teach children independence from an early age, every child learns at their own pace and is treated as an individual. They also pride themselves on their Forest School which is an inspirational experience, that offers children the opportunity to achieve and develop confidence through hands-on learning in a woodland environment. To complement the nursery day they also offer extra curriculum activities e.g Secret Garden, Diddy Dance , Music & Dance, Science, Cooking sessions. Freshly prepared meals included.

Unlike many nurseries, they benefit from a smaller environment and take a personal approach, the children remain with the same staff and peer group throughout their time at the nursery, helping them form relationships and gain confidence. All the children are integrated benefiting from strong social bonds, stability and continuity of care. The Montessori ethos encourages “family grouping” where children aged 2-5 work together, with the older children acting as role models for the younger children and the younger children benefiting from learning by example from the older children. Little Tots put the child and parent’s needs first.

Little Tots recognise how important it is that parents have instant access to their child learning journal and reports. They use ParentZone - a smartphone and tablet app which brings parents closer to their child’s development at nursery. Parents will be able to see a timeline of their child’s day at nursery, with photos, videos and notes on their child’s daily activities. Read less
