Little Pals Nursery - Tendring Education Centre

grandson loves being outside and they even supply puddle suits and wellies so he can be out all day every day if he wants!

he completes numerous activities and he has learnt far more than he would have from home. The approach of the nursery is certainly a caring one and that can be seen every day in his room.
The general admin is clear and the staff are always keen to help with any questions and queries we have had. There is cooked food which our son loves.
We would recommend this nursery to anyone with a child of nursery age.

were not being met, and now being in a different care provider I can see how much he was being let down.
Their food menu was not great in the end, offering mainly jacket potato every lunchtime because they were unable to deal with different diets.
Their outside equipment was not in good condition and was left dirty.

about it

when he was 5 months old and has been here for 3 months now, he absolutely loves it and has come so far thanks to all the help and support from the staff in the baby room. Using the online journals I love keeping track of my sons progress and adding my own photos from home, its a lovely way of working with the staff to support my child's needs.
I highly recommend this nursery for anyone looking for a nursery full of wonderful staff and learning opportunities!

to feel so welcome and my children love attending. The online learning journals are amazing and I really enjoy seeing what they have been up to and also adding my own photos from home. Would not go anywhere else!

nursery has its own school bus and the children get to go on all sorts of amazing outings!

to answer questions or listen to concerns, helping me out when I struggled with toilet training and had my worries. His learnt so much from being there and has become such a well behaved boy. Overall little pals is a fantastic nursery & would definitely recommend!

warm feel the nursery gives when you walk in, so friendly and very flexible with hours and days to suit me. They always seem to have a jam packed day to occupy her and she comes home with many painting. She has made lots of new friends and I can't wait to see her progress to the 2-3 year old room.

to get actively involved. Most recently I was invited to a come dine with me dinner where I went in for a delicious cooked meal and sat and ate with my grandson.

The staff are amazing and provide a very high level of care. My grandchildren are happy confident and have progressed so much since going there.

too where only I can see my child's information and photos. The staff seem genuinely happy to work at Little Pals and always come up with good ideas for craft activities, celebrations and fun days. I have a massive folder of his art work at home. Their Facebook page is always updated with menus, term dates and general news, and they have a sports coach coming in each week with the older ones now, how lovely.
The prices are one of the most competitive around (and I've looked at quite a few!) and it includes a cooked meal every day.
They have a baby massage course on site too, which is free to take part. Their fingerprint & CCTV system is very good - only parents and staff can enter and everyone else has to be met and signed in.

I would recommend this nursery to anyone, and I have done recently. Well done Everyone at Little Pals, keep up the good work.

trips out and they even have a fab football coach come in once a week which the children love.

The nursery is clean and organised. Every room is set up for the age group brilliantly. The hot meals for £2 per day are delicious. The best thing by far about Little Pals are the most wonderful, kind attentive and happy staff that genuinely care for our children.

and come on amazingly since he started.
Any problems I have had has been sorted out very quickly.
The staff are very nice and easy to talk to and help with any concerns there may be.
I can not praise little pals enough to for the time and effort they put into my boys care.
They keep me fully updated and give me a full letter of what he does each day :)

he turns 2. I wouldn't want him to go to any other nursery!

not only to my little girl but also to her Dad and I. They were always available to answer any questions we had. From her very first day there she absolutely loved it. Her speech improved massively and her confidence grew and grew. The menu and quality of meals that they provide of a lunchtime is absolutely brilliant! Also they have a decent size outdoor area with a wide variety of toys. My daughter is now suitably prepared for school next month thanks to the help and support of the staff at Little Pals. Would like to say a massive thank you to the team! And would recommend this nursery to anyone! :)
