Both my children attend Love Being Little and adore the staff and the friends they have made. We have 100% trust in the staff and care they receive, we could not fault them! They are AMAZING!


We will be sad to leave in July 2026 however the new company Partou has left a lot to be desired and the

new policies implemented are ridiculous. Had we not be leaving in July 2026, we would be considering moving our children elsewhere.

I submitted a review about LoveBeingLIttle a year ago. Many things have changed since then but the staff are still as supportive and as helpful. They would not be afraid to have an honest discussion with the parents if they observe any issues. They are very knowledgeable and helpful, providing advice
on kids' development.


The fees have gone up quite significantly after the nursery had a merger with a major care provider chain. Especially for the 7 o'clock early drop-off, an attractive point of the nursery that made us enrol our kid in the first place, now costs us more than £10 a day more than before. The costing scheme introduced requires the staff to remember which kid to use the nursery-provided nappy or which kid needs to be fed with home-bought food. While staff tried their best, we saw more accident forms to be signed and my kid came back for a few days with bite marks on his nose or arm. Luckily, the initial chaos seemed to settle. My kid still enjoys going to the nursery.

We've had such a wonderful experience with this day nursery! From the moment we enrolled my brother, the team has been incredibly warm, professional, and attentive to his needs. The nursery provides a safe, nurturing environment with a great balance of structured activities and free play, fostering
both learning and creativity. We've seen tremendous growth in his social skills, confidence, and independence. The regular updates and communication give us peace of mind, and we always feel well-informed. Highly recommend this nursery to any family looking for a caring, supportive, and fun place for their little one to grow and learn!

Love being little has/is a wonderful experience for my boys. It's been lovely to see how far my boys have come on since attending. They absolutely love attending nursery there also come out looking like they've had such a fun day. The staff are amazing. They're nothing but friendly, understanding and
so helpful. One of my children who attends is on the ASD pathway and the help and support we have received has been above and beyond, my worry was always about how he would settle in, turns out I never needed to worry he can't wait to get through those doors!

We cannot fault "love being little" in the slightest. We love sending our daughter their and have full confidence she has the best care provided. We cannot believe how much she has developed under the care team. Three members of staff in particular do an exceptional job and we couldn't be happier with
the nursery.

We moved to Love Being Little in February 2023, after our previous nursery had closed. We also were in the process of moving our child due to some issues with them. Within 6 months of him joining LBL, he was growing into a lovely mischievous child who was as really happy and coming out of his shell.
He loved the staff and his friends. We were also so happy with the nursery, they let our son grow up properly, they listened to our concerns and helped us get his bad habits from his previous nursery straight. We left this year for him to now start school, we do miss it and the staff, we drive past and our son asks to go back. Everyone there were all lovely, kind and caring. They were strict when they needed to be but also had lots of fun too, which is what children need. Thank you for your help, support and everything else.

My child has been attending this nursery since they were 9 months old and has been thriving in this setting. There are ample resources and activities throughout the day to accommodate a variety of interests and to promote independence and confidence. The parenting app is updated regularly, as well as
consistent stay and play sessions arranged and parents evenings which help me to feel much more involved in the care decisions for my child and the ability to discuss any issues/next steps for their development. I will be sending my second child to this nursery and would fully recommend it to other parents.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
During the beginning of the semester, I had issues with a bill that was issued to me regarding school meals. I emailed the manager with my concerns. The manager took her time to reach out to her own manager with my concerns. After several emails with the nursery, the bill was cancelled. All thanks to
the manager.
Secondly, my daughter doesn't wear diapers in school but sometimes, she will accidentally wet herself. On Monday 11/11/24, when I picked up my daughter from nursery, I noticed that she was wearing a different outfit. The manager approached me and said, sorry your daughter had an accident. "Here are her clothes, I have washed and dried them for you". I was shocked because her dirty clothes are always put in a plastic bag. But this time around, it was the opposite.

My little one has attended this small, homely nursery since he was about a year old, starting in the baby room and moving to the toddler room earlier this year. His confidence and independence have blossomed here, and he has developed great relationships with all the staff. He looks at the staff pictures
by the door and says "They're my friends". His key worker is attentive and caring - she has recommended his favourite books and has been very communicative with us during any tougher behavioural spells. All staff have bundles of energy and have built a rapport with him.
There are always seasonal and themed activities on offer and he comes home splattered in paint, playdoh, food, and water - as all happy, healthy, curious toddlers should!

I am very satisfied with how the nursery looks after my daughter which is evidenced by how happy she is to attend every day. The nursery is very well run and communications are excellent. I am always informed how my daughter is progressing and it's great to see how my daughter is improving and learning.
The nursery has various activities each day and keeps her engaged and safe. She really enjoys her days which is comforting to me as I go to work.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.791)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.791) out of 10 for Partou Love Being Little Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.791 for Partou Love Being Little Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 306 Ratings = 4.791
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Love Being Little Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 26 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 26 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
