Little Acorns Day Nursery & Forest School

My daughter has been at Little Acorns since she was 6 months old and is now 3 years old, so in this sense, Little Acorns staff have become her second family. I say this because, like most families would, they have taken time to learn who she is as an individual and supported her personality to grow into a confident and curious little girl. I always feel happy leaving her as I can see the warmth and safety she feels in her relationships with staff. I have been most impressed by her start at preschool. I really enjoy seeing the way staff make learning fun for them all. The children all seem to play well together. My child has never come home with any upsets about friendships. I believe this comes from the way staff are helping the children learn to share and care for each other. Management have also always been very professional and supportive when queries or information has been required.

Thank you ever so much to everyone.

I can’t fault anything about Little Acorns.

My daughter has attended Little Acorns for many months, and my youngest son recently joined. I've been pleased with the care Little Acorns has provided for my children. Communication between the teachers, management, and myself has been pleasant, professional, informative, and timely. I enjoy viewing pictures and videos of what the children are doing each day they attend. My children have learned many new skills since beginning at Little Acorns and continue to thrive in the exceptional learning/play environments. All the children get along nicely and the staff are quite nurturing to their unique needs. I have never noted any unsafe situations, and the conditions of the school areas inside and out are clean and sanitary. Any individual considering sending their child to Little Acorns can rest assured their child will be safe and well cared for.

This is a very good nursery with high standards. Nursery teachers are exceptional with children and my daughter really likes spending here time there. She has a Type 1 Diabetes and Little Acorns have accommodated perfectly to her needs. The nursery has plenty of outdoor space which is very important for me. I cannot recommend Little Acorns enough! Brilliant place!

I would recommend Little Acorns without hesitation!

Our daughter has been at Little Acorns for almost two years, starting in baby room, via tinies and now toddlers. We were recommended the nursery by a friend and knew from our first look round that this was the right place to send our daughter. The rooms and gardens are great, with lots of exciting/interesting toys to keep the children engaged. They always seem to do lots of Arts & Crafts, which our daughter loves. Forest School is another hit. The staff in each room have been, without exception, brilliant and look after the children so well. The low staff turnover rate speaks volumes and is really reassuring for us as parents. One of the best things for us is the app that’s updated during the day so we can always see what our daughter has been doing. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Little Acorns.

We have two very happy boys at Little Acorns. One in Baby Room and one who started in Baby Room and has made his way up to Pre-School. The staff are wonderful - caring, fun and engaging. They make every effort to ensure the children are happy and developing and raise concerns where necessary. We always receive beautiful handmade pieces for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas, Valentine’s Day etc. made by the children. There are lots of activities on offer (pre COVID-19) eg forest school, music, visiting the local care homes, horses and animals visit the nursery etc. The outside space is fantastic and well stocked with everything to keep children busy. We have been very pleased with the phonics and education aspect too. We have had such a positive experience with Little Acorns and would highly recommend to anyone.

I have been a parent at Little Acorns for the past 6 years. Both my sons have thoroughly enjoyed their time and experiences at this nursery. However; the staff really make this nursery so special. The saying “to teach is to touch a life forever”- is certainly the case at Little Acorns. From the staff in baby room right through to pre school have had such an impact on my boys.

My daughter has been with Little Acorns since she was 3 months old. I trust these wonderfully loving people with my most prized and loved possession. Our daughter is now turning 3 in July 2020 and I can say (hand on heart) she has never been happier than when she is at nursery school.

Little Acorns is a lovely, family-like nursery in Cobham. Both of my daughters and a couple of their cousins have attended it. We could not be happier with the care and support they offer. If your child needs any extra support or attention, they will go up and beyond in providing it. My little one is currently in Tinies room and is loving it, even with the COVID restrictions. Little Acorns are handling it very well with each group having a separate entrance and garden to play. Staff are absolutely fantastic on every level. There's hardly any turnover which really helps children to settle and makes them feel safe. They really are like the most loving, extended family. We are receiving photos and videos throughout the day from their daily activities. Outdoor play areas are great, separate for each group. Children there spend lots of time playing outside even on cooler days, which was a winner for us. Children really blossom at Little Acorns.

Has multiple gardens set up for various age groups. Both my kids adore going there, I cannot praise the amazing passionate staff enough!

We love all the activities they do and my little girl can not wait to join in with forest school next. It’s easy to misjudge the nursery from the outside but I suggest you go and see for yourself before deciding. It’s got a lovely family feel and beautiful rooms.
