We have a really good relationship with all the staff and our son really enjoys spending time at the coop.
Care for our child is and has always been excellent and a great environment is provided for them to grow. Our children have always been well looked after from the very beginning and we have nothing but good things to say about nursery.
Most important thing for us is how much the staff care and do their best to look after the children. Drop offs and pickups are very easy, always best to time it immediately after a mealtime as the kids eat very well.
Communications are very good. Plenty of updates, news and the nursery is extremely easy to get hold off with a fully manned office. Similarly sorting admin like car permits and free childcare hours has been very easy.
Stimulating days for our child, well cared for and genuinely wonderful staff members.
Our child is happy to be dropped off and not really bothered about leaving in the afternoon!
The activities are always varied, engaging, and clearly very well thought out. It's lovely to see how much effort goes into planning experiences that support both learning and creativity. He's developed so many new skills and his confidence has grown tremendously during his time there.
The staff are consistently friendly, kind, and approachable. They clearly care about the children and build strong, positive relationships with them. Our son has made some wonderful friends, and it's been a joy to watch those friendships grow.
We're so grateful for the nurturing start they've given him and would highly recommend this nursery to other parents.
The setting itself is welcoming and well organised, with a great balance of structured learning and creative play. We've seen such positive growth in confidence, communication and independence, and that's down to the thoughtful approach of the team.
Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed and included. It's reassuring to know our child is not only safe, but thriving and happy every day.
We feel incredibly lucky to be part of this nursery community and would wholeheartedly recommend it to any family.
All staff and management are really approachable and helpful when I have any queries. They take a keen interest in her development and needs. My daughter has really come on in the last month and I can notice the confidence she has gained with walking and being more independent with feeding etc due to the efforts staff have put in.
We are delighted with our experience at this nursery - our toddler has been attending since he was 9 months old and has formed a really lovely bond with his key person and all the other staff members in his room. It's really clear that the staff care for the children and their development. There are always new and exciting activities set up in the toddler room each day, and it's great that they offer lots of creative and messy play that we do not do at home. The management team are also excellent and we get regular updates from them. Comms from the team in the toddler room are very clear at handover and on the app. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who wants to ensure a safe, happy place for their little one.
The staff are brilliant at providing activities for the children attending the setting. Both my children have developed really strong bonds with the adults in their rooms. The communication of the management team is excellent. I would highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this Beautiful review. This has made our day knowing you are happy here.
Staff are extremely kind, professional and responsive. They have made effort to connect and help my child develop in a positive and fun environment. Transitions between rooms have been smooth, so has been potty training, eating and creating hygiene habits. I would recommend this setting.
My son has been coming here since September 2024, they were kind in offering him a space when I got a new job and my work schedule changed. As a new Mom then who had spent a lot time caring for him with my husband it was really reassuring to see how the staff welcomed and took care of him. He settled in well quickly and made lots of new friends. The staff are always kind and cheerful, they pay attention to his needs and are always ready take any input from us. They also have lots of toys and lovely garden where the kids play and I love that they take them outside regularly. Great for their learning and development!
We are truly happy with the Oxford Station nursery. Our son has been going there for almost a year and we couldn't be more satisfied with the setting! He is very happy to enter the room in the morning and very happy when we pick him up in the afternoon. All the staff are doing such a great job and they engage the children in all sorts of artistic and developmental activities. Our son has learnt so much at nursery, including so many new words! He loves the food and the garden. Extra points for the nursery always being super clean, keep up the good job!
My daughter really enjoys her time at the nursery and I can't speak more highly of the staff, they are so kind and committed to the children. It's great how much outdoor time the children have. I feel very lucky to be a part of the nursery.
We love Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Oxford Station. It has a real family atmosphere and you can tell how much the staff care about all the little ones that go there. There's a real effort to make sure there is a good range of activities, food choices, a mixture of play and relaxing/snuggly time. We appreciate the regular updates over the app and debriefs at pick-up. One thing that would be helpful is to improve communication on the Cooperative policy around sickness (e.g. when are children sent home because of fever etc) as this sometimes changes without us realising.
The nursery has always been fantastic with my son. The care and consideration taken into his specific needs are always excellent. Any problems/issues have always been brought to my attention promptly and openly spoken about solutions. I could not recommend the nursery enough to anyone looking to enrol their child. The curriculum and facilities have really helped him to progress and learn as he pleases. Fantastic work all around!
Very helpful, and always keeping us updated with our child and wider nursery changes!
Fantastic team and the best nursery in Oxfordshire.
We've had a very positive experience with this nursery. The team is attentive, professional, and friendly, showing genuine care. We would recommend them to any parent. Their dedicated approach is truly appreciated. A special shout-out to the primary caregiver of our son, who has been exceptional in her role!
We wanted to express our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible support you've provided to our child. The staff's dedication and nurturing approach have created a safe and loving environment. The way you encourage his emotional development is truly commendable. We've seen his confidence grow, and that's down to the supportive atmosphere you've cultivated. Thank you for going above and beyond to ensure his emotional well-being. We're grateful!
Our son has really enjoyed his time at nursery. The staff are all lovely and take a real interest in the children and it shows in how happily he goes each day. The building has recently moved as well and is in a wonderful new space. Would highly recommend it.
A wonderful nursery in a perfect location. The staff know and understand my daughter well and tend to her needs. Her special dietary requirements are met without hesitation. Her key person communicates well with us, and I feel a strong rapport with her, enabling our daughter to be ready and prepared for school in September.

Hi, I’m Zoe, the Nursery Manager, and I’m proud to say I’ve been part of this wonderful nursery family for 15 years. Over that time, Oxford Station has truly become my second home. I’ve had the privilege of watching so many children grow, learn and flourish, and nothing makes me happier than seeing their confidence shine each day. I’m passionate about creating a warm, welcoming environment where every child feels safe, valued and inspired to explore the world around them. Our nursery is full of laughter, curiosity and care, and I’m incredibly proud to lead such a dedicated and nurturing team. We can’t wait to welcome you and your little one into our nursery family!
I have been part of the nursery team since 2014, starting my journey as a Level 2 practitioner straight from college. While working, I went on to complete my Level 3 qualification, further developing my knowledge and passion for early years education.
Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work in every room across the nursery, gaining valuable experience with children of all ages and stages of development. I have progressed from Room Manager to Deputy Manager, a role I am incredibly proud to hold.
Since joining, I have worked closely alongside Zoe, and together we have grown within the nursery, supporting one another as we have both worked our way up. I feel very fortunate to be part of such a dedicated team and to continue supporting the children and families within our nursery community.
