Co-op Childcare Littlehampton is a purpose-built nursery and is made up of six rooms and a large garden.
They have areas for growing food ( and eating it), regular visits to local care homes and care for each other and the world. Their ParentZone app keeps parents/carers informed about their little ones at nursery with photos from their day, meals eaten and even toilet training progress!
They are big on safety and that's why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained. They have 5 Little Pioneers who help share their core values with the children, from encouraging them to be independent to making a difference in the world.
They hold the silver award in the green flag eco schools programme which sees children lead the way in making a little changes that deliver big environmental differences.
At Co-op Childcare Littlehampton they like to learn through play with regular Forest School inspired activities where they encourage all of their children to explore outdoors as part of their development.

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Overall, the nursery is very impressive, the staff are mostly very nice and polite. My daughter has been coming to the nursery for almost 10 months and loves it, they are constantly outside exploring and have a great play area as well as an outside nature area to learn from. The one bugbear that I have is that within the small print they state that bank holidays are charged even though the nursery is closed which I feel is disgusting. So I end up paying for 8 days a year that the nursery is closed for and my child can not attend. At over £50 a day that is a good £400 that is wasted going into the Co-op's back pocket. Shame on them!

Thank you for your review. Please be assured that the decision to charge for bank holidays is not one that has been made lightly. In order to provide sustainable childcare, we have to ensure that our parent's fees cover the cost of the childcare provided. On bank holidays we still have to cover all of our normal costs such as the cost of our colleague's wages, in much the same way that the majority of our working parents will be paid for the bank holidays.As a Co-operative any profit we make only goes towards re-investment in our business, the local community or in the dividend vouchers that are paid out to all of our members, including our parent members. We don't have greedy shareholders taking large dividends from us like other providers. Although we are not profit-driven, we do have to make sure that our nurseries are sustainable so we are able to continue to run them.
Quick at responding. Lovely friendly staff - always smiling.
My son is always happy to go to nursery, he comes back home showing everything he has learnt during the day.

Faultless nursery. My daughter loves going to nursery, this nursery includes lots of things that you had to pay extra for in others. e.g. suncream, hot lunches, snacks. They have great communication with the parents through email and the parent app, keeping me informed about what she is doing throughout the day, what she had to eat, how long she naps for etc. She comes home saying/understanding new things. They do lots of messy play, which is something we don't tend to do much of at home. Lots of outdoor activities in the gardens, Highly recommend!

I started my daughter at the Littlehampton Co-op nursery. I must say my daughter has been enjoying her nursery. I can see a change in her development. The nursery has a lot of activities. The nursery key worker/team member updates us on how the day was when we go to collect. Whenever we call we are updated. The parent app is fab which keeps us updated too. I can work with a peaceful mind while my daughter is at nursery as I know she is safe.
My son started at the nursery during the first Covid lockdown in 2020 which meant that we weren’t able to settle him in like I would have liked. However, all the staff and management were extremely supportive of my son and us as parents. Our son settled in quickly. He has always come home happy and...
Our son has thrived at the nursery in his speech and other learning. The food supplied is varied and healthy and the menus change regularly. If you have any questions the staff are willing to help and listen and assist.
I have had two children in this nursery and I have been so happy with the dedication and the kindness of the staff. They really care for the children and both of mine have had a wonderful time, growing in confidence and having lots of fun!

Co-op Childcare Littlehampton are absolutely amazing. My little boy absolutely loves it there! The staff are always kind, supportive and have taught my little boy so, so much. They’ve made him more confident and his speech has come along so much since attending. They’re always giving amazing feedback and are always happy to listen if I ever have any concerns.
A fantastic nursery and preschool setting. Great facilities and staff. Close relationships built with parents and countless opportunities to learn through play and enquiring are on offer. My two children love the nursery and I feel supported and happy.

Wonderful nursery, my son has developed so much since starting here in October. Friendly and educational and all the staff are lovely. I can't fault the menu either, a wide variety of food and things he would never eat at home! I have a very happy, albeit tired, toddler at the end of every session...

So happy our daughter is part of Co-op childcare, she was not able to meet other friends and people in this Covid situation and she was always looking for me when we were in other company and crying for me. Now within not even 10 days, I can see the difference in her. Highly recommend this nursery...
So happy our daughter is part of Co-op childcare, she was not able to meet other friends and people in this Covid situation and she was always looking for me when we were in other company and crying for me. Now within not even 10 days, I can see the difference in her. Highly recommend this nursery and the people are so friendly and they have experience with Down Syndrome babies which was one of the important things for us. Many thanks.
I am regularly updated with my son's progress and love seeing the pictures updated throughout the day.

I find the app very helpful my son really enjoys it and has made some lovely friends, his development is really coming on. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who is looking for a lovely bunch of staff who are also there to support the families not just children.

My little one started last July and it took a while to settle in but he loves going, gets so excited for his play days there and is now making friends and remembering names. He thrives in an outside environment which is one of the reasons I chose the Co-op Childcare Littlehampton as they make full use of the garden. I think the staff and management have handled the Covid-19 situation extremely well but does at busy times mean they don't have the time for updates or to listen to you, so you forget to pass on information such as my son is in pants today due to potting training. The key worker staff seem to have genuine care and affection for the children which is a comfort when dropping off.

I have used this fantastic nursery for the last five years. Firstly my daughter, who thrived followed by my son who is also thriving here. He runs straight in every session, eager to get going and is a confident happy chappy when collected. The fantastic outside space is utilised extremely efficiently providing everything imaginable and is used at every given opportunity. The staff are fantastic, helpful, caring, sensible and go above and beyond for children and parents. Their handling of Covid-19 has been exemplary. I researched and visited basically all the nurseries in the area prior to choosing this one five ears ago. At my first visit it was clearly positively incomparable to all the others, even visually. Five years with two children through it and never a worry. Not bad eh? I cannot rate this nursery and all the staff highly enough. The manager is simply incredible. I was sad when my daughter graduated to "big school" and I will be sad again when my son follows shortly. Magical memories made.
Good practice and kind staff. My daughter is very happy to go into this nursery and she likes the staff too. Very good nursery and very good service too. I will really recommend this nursery.

My little girl absolutely loves nursery and always goes in happy and smiling! The staff are so attentive and give me lots of information about what she has been up to throughout the day! The app is also really helpful. They know my daughter inside out which makes leaving her so easy.

Since my daughter started at Co-op Littlehampton, she has come on leaps and bounds. Her development has been incredible to watch and we are certain it is hugely down to the wonderful staff at the nursery. She is always excited to go into nursery, and gets upset on days she doesn't! Staff have been great, keeping us up to date on things and how she is getting on. Absolute no negatives to tell!
