Overall Experience
We have a great relationship with Little Pips. Our kids always come back happy from their day. We are kept up-to-date with what they are doing through the app, parent's evenings, and their sharing books.

We are very happy with the whole nursery.

Review from H C (Mother of Child) published on 27 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Little Pips is by far an outstanding nursery, their staff are so caring about the children at the nursery.
During the past couple of months, I have had periods when I was not well and the nursery provided such help to us, they accepted my daughter an extra day and provided excellent care to her. That support was such a help to us knowing that my daughter would be looked after while I was at home recovering.

Their inside and outside areas are great and I love hearing how my daughter just loves going there, she loves all the activities they provide and has made some great friends there.

This is a lovely review and we are so pleased that you feel supported as part of our Little Pips family. Thank you for your very kind words.

Amazing small nursery. Lovely professional staff. My daughter loves going here and had developed many skills and relationships here.
The staff here update you every day and are always happy to help.

It would help if the cost was lower a little for students but overall fab double-A star nursery that actually cares teaches and looks after the children.

Review from Tom J (Father of Child) published on 25 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Everyone at Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham we've met, from the admin to the nursery has been wonderful. Our son is now in his second year (and also second classroom) and really enjoys coming in each week. He loves the people there, as they're kind, attentive and really tailor the nursery experience to the specific child's needs. He has advanced in many areas we were unsure how to tackle ourselves, so we're thrilled with his progress there. It's also lovely seeing him play with children his own age, something we took for granted pre-covid. The nursery has an outdoor garden area, where my son loves to spend most of his time if allowed! Plenty of wet/messy play areas. We get daily updates via the Famly app, including what's been eaten, nappy changes, and sleep times. Also immediately contacted if any bumps or scrapes. We are very happy and grateful to everyone at Little Pips for looking after our boy and feel comfortable every time we drop him off that he's in the very safest hands.

Overall Experience

Our son has been at Little Pips for two months and it’s been great to see him regain his confidence with other children and bigger groups after the last year.

The team are always friendly, helpful, and go the extra step to support the children. Very glad that we’ve been able to extend the time our son is with them to continue to prep him for school!

Review from Eki O (Mother of Child) published on 5 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My baby at 10 months old started Lil Pips Nursery Cheltenham in March 2021, from the initial enquiry, settling in days and completing the necessary paperwork, every stage went smoothly. There was an open line of communication and I was informed at every stage of the way!
The Baby Bunnies team are an excellent bunch, they update us throughout the day with the various activities and how the little one was settling in, even at drop off and pick up's we are greeted with a smile and a summary of the day. The way they interact with the children is heartwarming. They certainly go above and beyond their call of duty!

We couldn't have picked a better setting.

My daughter absolutely loves Little Pips. She has been attending there since she was 11 months old and is now about to start school in September. She loves the staff and always enjoys her days there. We will be extremely sad when she has to leave. Little Pips is amazing!

Review from Alice R M (Mother of Child) published on 12 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham for about a year now and we all love it! He is always excited about going and runs into nursery in the morning, barely saying goodbye to us! There is always a wide range of daily activities, he particularly enjoys playing in the fantastic garden and participating in messy play. The communication from staff is great, we are sent photos during the day, receive regular reports on our son’s developmental progress, get verbal feedback every day with what he has done and there are regular updates from the management team as well. Our son enjoys the food and we are really pleased with the new menu. The staff are very warm, friendly, so caring and we know our son is well looked after, he is very happy at Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham!

Overall Experience

Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham have been absolutely amazing. Throughout the pandemic, I had to change my childcare to them and they made us all feel so at ease. They are supportive, caring and patient with my daughter and she is so happy. Communication is also incredible and I feel like even though I've put my child in childcare, I am still involved in her days. I would highly recommend Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham!

Review from Sally D (Mother of Child) published on 10 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We love Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham. My eldest attended Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham till she started school and now my youngest has begun his journey there too. The ladies of Little Pips are absolutely wonderful and I cannot fault them. Dropping my children at Little Pips is like sending them to stay with a family member. The staff are so loving, caring and always have my children's best interest at heart, plus they're very aware and attentive of their developmental needs. The activities at Little Pips are brilliant and my children are always engaged and excited to attend.

My son has attended Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham for the past two years and I cannot recommend the nursery highly enough. It is such a happy and caring for place, the staff really know the children and the thought and imagination that goes into engaging the children in different types of play is outstanding. Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham don’t just look after children, they really nurture them into becoming happy and confident children.

Review from Ruth K (Mother of Child) published on 30 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have had two children attend Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham and they have both been extremely happy there. The children have opportunities to do a large range of activities with other children their own age. They are supported by warm, caring staff who know my children well. Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham has an amazing garden which they utilise well, we get lots of lovely videos of the children having fun playing games outside. Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham have continued to provide excellent care throughout the Covid-19 pandemic and have communicated their procedure updates well. As a key worker my children attended throughout the first lockdown and I have always felt very confident that they would be well looked after, physically and emotionally and in a hygienic environment. My eldest is now in reception and I feel she had been well prepared for starting school with the early years program at Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham, making the transition to school a happy one.

I cannot recommend Little Pips enough. My daughter has been attending since she was 8-months old, and she is now 3.5 years and loves going to "preschool". She has developed so much, and all the ladies are amazing.

I cannot recommend Little Pips enough. They are a very caring nursery and extremely accomodating. There is definitely a family feel with this nursery and they make extra efforts to ensure all the kids feel at home. They are also on hand for any advice whenever asked and you never feel like you're being rushed away. They take their time to talk to you about your child and genuinely care and want to know how they are or what they have been up to. They are wonderful carers.
