We couldn't be happier with Little Echoes Day Nursery, our son loves it there and the staff are so caring and attentive. We always get feedback on how his day has been and it is lovely to see pictures of what he has been up to at parents evening. I would highly recommend it.

My son has been in the care of Little Echoes 2 days a week for 1 year now. The team are consistently happy, full of energy and hugely in touch with his needs - this care extends outside of the wonderful staff in his room to the management and admin team. I feel assured there is always a great standard
of different activities and this has been beneficial to my son's overall development. The nursery is very well organised, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I am very happy to know Oliver is in such good care and hope the staff feel appreciated.

I cannot recommend Little Echoes Nursery enough. They are a wonderful team who care, dearly about every single child. My little boy absolutely loves going and they made him feel very welcome when he joined just over a year ago. The facilities are great and the food always varied. I am so happy we found
this nursery and I would highly recommend this place to all.

My son has been going to Little Echoes for nearly a year now. He loves it and I am so pleased we decided to send him there. The rooms are big and light and they are always doing fun and creative activities. The staff are very professional and clearly love their job. I have looked at many nurseries but
this was by far the best.

I can't say enough positive things about Little Echoes. My little one started in the baby room last April at 11 months and loves every second he spends here. He gets excited as soon as we pull into the car park. The facilities are great - large, bright rooms with lovely equipment and decorations made
by the children, as well as good outdoor space. The staff are all fantastic - they all know my little one and always say hello, even those from different rooms. It's clear that the nursery places great emphasis on investing in its staff, many of whom have been their years so there is great continuity of care. The manager is fantastic and very hands on. My little boy just loves all of the staff and it's reassuring to know he is loved and cared for every day. So glad we found Little Echoes!

My four-month-old son joined this nursery. From the start, he has been cared for with bespoke attention. The key worker is a happy and caring lady who sincerely enjoys her job. The manager is efficient and flexible and alongside her duties, she has a huge knowledge of the children and their needs. When
a change of plan is needed, the staff are happy to put a plan into action. My son is loved and cared for to a high standard. I would recommend this nursery without hesitation - the children have a wonderful time!

I can see huge positive progress in my child from the day he started and now.
He has improved his social and communication skills, he is a very confident, independent child due to dedicated staff.
Staff and environment is very child-friendly. I'll recommend the nursery due to secure and safe environment.

Both my children have attended Little Echoes and I have been extremely pleased with the care they have received. They both look forward to going and have so much fun doing various activities. Their favourite is the weekly music, singing and movement class.


My eldest has now left to start school and

Little Echoes prepared him brilliantly for the transition. All the staff there are great!

My daughter went to this nursery from 2015 - 2016 and now my youngest daughter is currently in their Bouncing Bunnies room.
I rave about this nursery to everyone I meet.
They are caring, supportive and nurturing.
They understand the children and know the families.
The care is 2nd to none and they
are very flexible with the hours.
I trust them wholeheartedly to take amazing care of my little one and she always has a beaming smile when I pick her up.

My daughter has been at Little Echoes since she was 9 months old and now, at 2 and a half years old, she continues to be incredibly happy. It is a delight to see how much fun she has every day, how well she is developing and how much she is learning each day. From the moment we first visited Little
Echoes, we were impressed by the friendly, kind and welcoming staff, the happy children and the vibrant, varied and welcoming environments they provide. The staff are fantastic. They genuinely care for my daughter and I really feel like they know her. It is so important to know that I can confidently leave my little one at Little Echoes and know she is safe and happy each day, having fun with her friends. I can't recommend this nursery enough.

Over the past four years, Little Echoes have looked after all three of our children across the three different rooms. The staff provide a wide range of activities for the children during the day and the staff are always on hand for any questions. Our eldest went to school last year and while at nursery
she developed so many of the required skills needed to settle into school quickly. The staff provide lots of feedback and are always friendly and approachable, our children love nursery!

My daughter really enjoys every day at nursery. She has a great relationship with her key workers and carers and I'm always happy to leave her in their care. My daughter has developed significantly and rapidly since joining, in her language, social motor skills. She's always stimulated with fun and
educational activities from reading books, Jo Jingles, sensory room and garden/outdoor/playground time. Her eating habits are much improved: trying more foods and eating more overall. All this despite her dairy intolerance. The staff are always available to talk to us and take an interest in any changes to her home routine too. All procedures are explained clearly. I have had only fantastic experiences at Little Echoes.

My son started nursery at the beginning of September 2015, the nursery staff provided a excellent settling in programme over a period of one week. I felt reassured that all my son's needs had been discused and everyone was friendly and welcoming. My son very much enjoys nursery and greets me at the
end of the day with a huge smile. The staff are very informative and communicate well regarding my sons progress.

Review from SB (Father of Child) published on 23 October 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter who is now 2 and 9 months has now been attending 2 days a week for a couple of months, after being with either Mummy or Nanny full time for 2 and a half years this was a big change for her and we had many a tear shed for the first few weeks when dropping her off, but thanks to the staff
at Little Echoes she has settled in really quickly and we have no problems now, and we have noticed so much more confidence in her now around other children as well.
The staff there are all really friendly, helpful and completely understanding, and are always there to help us as parents as well as her, and we were amazed that they even managed to get her to have a sleep on the first day,and every day since, something we can't even manage to do at times these days.
We visited a few nurseries before seeing Little Echoes, and honestly when we first walked in we both looked at each other and nodded straight away, the atmosphere is so clean, bright and welcoming, compared to some of the others that just felt dirty and as if you were visiting a prison. The daily cost is maybe slightly more than the average but it is so worth it for the facilities and the atmosphere they have and I would whole heartedly recommend them to anyone.

Little Echoes is a very friendly and welcoming nursery. It is very organised and well run. Our son really enjoys his time there. There are always plenty of different activities and toys laid out every morning upon arrival to inspire the children. The staff are excellent, caring and generally very attentive.
It is a lovely place and we are very happy that our son goes there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.888)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.888) out of 10 for Little Echoes Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.965 for Little Echoes Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (138 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.965
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.923 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Echoes Day Nursery is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 65 number of registered child places is 13. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.923
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
