My daughter has been attending Little Nightingales Day Nursery since September 2020 and absolutely loves it. She is currently in the nest and loves the girls so much. The girls are so good with her and have her best interests in mind at all times. There are daily updates and photos on the app which is really good. I literally cannot fault the nursery. My daughter will be transitioning to a different nursery in June and the manager has already been in touch about the process and answered all my questions. No question is ever too big for them and they are always happy to help and guide. We had always thought my daughter would attend a different nursery but on visiting Little Nightingales Day Nursery, we knew straight away it was perfect and a home from home. The food is home made, nutritious and my daughter always finishes all of her meals and snacks.
Great nursery, our two year old loves it and has been there since he was nine months old. We visited a number in the area before deciding on Little Nightingales Day Nursery which was by far the best in my opinion. The staff really care about all the children from what I can see and we've never had any issues.
My daughters been at Little Nightingales Day Nursery for almost two years now and we’ll be so sad when she leaves to start big school. We really have nothing negative to say about it, the staff are lovely and just the greeting she gets every morning puts a huge smile on my face. She’s well looked after, fed, stimulated and she’s definitely learned good habits and manners from the staff there. I’m extremely grateful to Little Nightingales Day Nursery for looking after and helping my precious little girl develop and enjoy her time and nursery and preschool. Highly recommend!
for nearly four years and will be starting primary school soon. He is such a confident, happy little boy and has learnt so much since starting at the age of one! The preschool is amazing and they are preparing him so well for his transition into primary school! My two year old is also enjoying every minute there with all the activities and day to day fun that gets planned for the children. A lovely home from home environment with the most amazing staff! Lots of happy memories there.
My son currently attends Little Nightingales Day Nursery and he has done for three years, he is now in the preschool and absolutely loves it. He has such a good bond with all the lovely staff members and is always so excited to go. We’re sad he will be leaving this summer to go to big school but thank everyone at Little Nightingales Day Nursery for preparing him for the next stage of his life!
The staff at Little Nightingales Day Nursery are wonderful, caring and take time in getting to know each child's likes and dislikes and provide a warm and loving space for each child. Would suggest Little Nightingales Day Nursery to anyone looking for a home away from home setting.
We would highly recommend Little Nightingales Day Nursery to anyone looking to put trust in people to look after their child!
Lovely nursery that provides a home from home setting. Nurturing staff, resources and an in house chef providing excellent nutritious meals for my child. Very pleased with the running of the nursery and my child is very happy there.
My daughter loves it there. The staff are all very friendly and they make her feel comfortable. She loves how they do lots of different activities and she thinks the garden is great. I like that they have a full, varied menu and the app they use to update us throughout the day is good. I like how they celebrate lots of different cultures and give the children opportunities to try new things.
We have always felt confident leaving him and know that he is in the best hands!
Brilliant nursery with such a family vibe. My daughter has made some great friends there already and I'm so pleased with her progress she's made since attending Little Nightingales Day Nursery. She started at the age of one and has loved it the whole way through. The nursery has been really accommodating with the hours and days I've needed due to changes with work. Couldn't fault them at all.
My son absolutely loves the nursery! He has adjusted so well into the woodpeckers class and that is down to all of the support from the amazing staff. I am in awe of all of the staff in how they have coped under the latest restrictions and so grateful they chose to remain open.
My daughter has been at Little Nightingales Day Nursery since she was sixteen months old. She is now nearly three and has absolutely loved her time there. The staff are all so friendly, lovely and make the children feel at home. It really is like a home from home environment. We had no issues with settling in and she adjusted so easily due to their warm nature. The food is always varied, healthy and they cook fresh on site. I always recommend this nursery to friends who are looking!
When my daughter started here in February it was the first time she had attended any kind of nursery. I was apprehensive about it but all the staff made her feel so welcome. She absolutely loves it there and I’m so impressed with the topics they cover and the creative stuff she gets up to. Whenever I drop her off or pick her up the staff are always friendly. I would highly recommend Little Nightingales Day Nursery to everyone.
I could not ask for a better nursery for my little one. As soon as he gets out of the car his face lights up. He throws himself at the girls. He has fresh meals, he's shown new things constantly. The staff are amazing with him. He has progressed so much while being here already.
Little Nightingales is a really good nursery. The staff are lovely and you can tell they genuinely care about all the children. They vary the activities well and capture key moments for Tapestry that you as a parent can view. My son loves this nursery and I feel extremely comfortable with him being there 5 days a week. He is stimulated, challenged (in a fun way) and has made lots of friends.
This really is a home from home nursery and my two sons have really flourished through the care, play and learning at Little Nightingales. The staff work tirelessly to ensure all children are happy and looked after in a nurturing and caring environment. If your child has a specific routine or requirements be that potty training, a comforter for nap time, specific sleep timetable, then the team will work with you to ensure your child's needs are met. In fact, when my first child was young, I would often seek the advice of the carers on how to approach different challenges (ie potty training), valuing their opinion and ideas. The activities are varied - my child is in pre-school where they take part in a different club (gardening/drama/book etc) every day which he really enjoys. The communication is clear with a monthly memo, Facebook posts and ad-hoc emails. Very happy we chose Little Nightingales and they have been part of our children's lives for the last 5 years.
Our son started at Little Nightingales four months ago and we have been so happy there. We were dreading leaving our first born (he had only ever been looked after by us and occasionally family) but the wonderful team that care for him have made it easy. He loves nursery and is looked after so well, we are delighted. We have been particularly impressed with the baby room staff, varied activities, regular updates to parents and the food.
A wonderful Nursery truly a home from home environment. The staff are excellent and very caring and both my children have done really well at the nursery and my eldest was really well prepared for when he made the transition to school.
Very friendly welcoming staff, great home feel environment. A happy place for children to go. My son loves it there
