It’s a shame with Covid we haven’t been able to go into the room for a while but this isn’t their fault it’s due to Covid.
My daughter loves coming here and really enjoys it. The staff are really friendly and they keep you updated daily on the different activities they do. I have recommended this nursery to many of my work colleagues.
We’ve been so impressed with Little Pioneers, and cannot fault the work they do there. They seem so genuinely caring for all the children in their care and both our boys love their time there. The facilities and rooms are beautiful with their low or no plastic policies. Communication and support from all the staff has been fantastic, and the food always sounds so yummy!
Our little boy has been in Little Pioneers since he was around 8 months old and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Our child’s development has come on leaps and bounds throughout his time there and I feel confident that his learning will only improve further as time goes on. It is a daunting thing to look at nurseries and then put your trust in people you don’t know very well - especially as this was for our first child - but the staff there are amazing. You get updates as to what is going on in your child's day and you are also given a lot of information about how the nursery is being run. Especially throughout the pandemic, they have been so informative which has been really lovely and assuring. Amazing nursery!
This is the only nursery I have been involved with so cannot compare with other nurseries but my son looks very happy when going to nursery. Plus the staff are very nice and will promptly reply to your email or message. Also, it's nice to see cards made by my son on occasions like Mothers Day, Easter and so on, which shows that there are lots of activities he experiences with and learn. Will definitely recommend others to choose this nursery. Hopefully, will get to know more after removal of lockdown.
I can not rate them highly enough. Every single person there is great with my child and he has been very happy there over the last 3 years of his life. They all care deeply about their jobs and are willing to go the extra mile for the children. The standard of care is exceptional and am very happy to leave my child there knowing that he will be safe and have fun.
Our boy has been attending for nearly a year now and loves nursery! He's never had a bad day there and runs into nursery every morning as he can't wait to get in. We love that the staff know all the children individually and genuinely care for our boy. There's a real focus on nature, small world play and we love it that they spend so much time outdoors even if the weather isn't fantastic! We love it's a plastic-free environment too! The food is well varied, a ton of mixed activities every day and nappies, food, activities, photos and observations are on the app each day so we are kept well informed! Any tiny issues we've had were sorted asap and we've had little to no concerns as our boy is flourishing beautifully there thanks to the dedicated and amazing staff! The communication from the team is fantastic. We couldn't have picked a better nursery and are so pleased our boy loves his nursery! We highly recommend Little Pioneers and have other friends children join the nursery too as it's so good.
We’re always communicated with appropriately and the staff are always cheerful and understanding at drop-offs and pickups. We couldn’t ask for a better nursery to send our son to.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery and enjoys the huge range of activities they have. The nursery has a large outdoor area that is perfect for the children to explore. All three of my children have attended the nursery. Ideal nursery for NHS staff. Always great communication between the staff to the parents.
Thank you so much for your review! It has been a pleasure to have all of your children be a part of our little pioneers family!!
Even returning after the COVID enforced break, they have done such an amazing job, and he’s come along so far.
My daughter has been going to Little Pioneers for the last two years and absolutely loves it. The staff are fantastic at support learning in a creative and fun way. All the staff are super caring and friendly, everything is well organised with lots of communication with parents. I cannot rate it highly enough.
They work with the children’s interests and my son has learnt so much in his time there.
The extra measures they have put in during covid are far beyond anything I’ve heard about from friends with children at other nurseries. The support provided has been amazing.
I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery to use Little Pioneers. I know my son will be sad to leave when he starts school.
Absolutely fantastic nursery and preschool. We have been using this nursery for the past 3 years and could not fault it. Both our children have come on leaps and bounds and I know this is due to the excellent staff, their dedication and enthusiasm and the great facilities available to them. Would definitely recommend them.
We recently left this nursery for my son to be looked after by relatives due to a house move, but due to unforeseen circumstances it didn’t work out and despite the nursery now being over half an hour away from home, there wasn’t another nursery anywhere as good that we wanted to use, hence being back. They were fantastic at fitting him back in and it’s as if he never left.
He is always happy to go in on a morning and full of beans when collected at the end of the day.
They are very detailed on the app with what food my son has had through the day, along with nappy changes, naps and activities done. A few friends of mine was very jealous, as some nurseries can be very vague with information. A great all round nursery.
The variety of food and facilities are fantastic which is supported by a very well organised team with great communication skills.
Great food, brilliant variety. Amazing breadth of activities inside and outside. Our boy is quieter and they took this into consideration and let him go to the story zone whenever he needs some space.
So happy with the nursery. The staff are so friendly and my son always has a full day of varied and interesting activities. I would definitely recommend.
Both my children are happy and love nursery/preschool. The food is cooked fresh which is an added bonus.
We recently moved to Swindon and I was so concerned we'd find a good nursery. They certainly haven't disappointed and I'm confident my daughter gets the love and care she needs and more. The educational resources are also fantastic, and I look forward to watching my daughter grow at The Little Pioneers! Thank you to all of the team!
Outstanding nursery and preschool. Staff members give you confidence that your child is cared for as well as taught exceptionally well. All staff members are helpful and friendly. Meals are excellent and varied.

Meet the Team (2)
I have worked at the nursery since the day it opened in 2003 and have loved developing it into the amazing place it is today! I have over 30 years of experience in childcare and use my knowledge and experience to build the team and the nursery to be the best.
As a mum of 2, I know what things are important to families and cascade these thoughts and feelings to the team so they get a true understanding and empathy towards our families.
I was first introduced to the Little Pioneers nursery when I completed a placement here as part of my college training back in 2012. I thoroughly enjoyed my time, so much so that I applied for a position and became a colleague as soon as I completed my training! I have worked my way up from Nursery Nurse to Room Manager, Third in charge and most recently I have taken on the role of the Deputy Manger. I worked in the 2-3s and under 2 ages mainly. I am the nursery SENCO and enjoy supporting families that need a little bit more support for their child. I work full time so you will get to see me every day, I'm always happy to stop for a chat and if you need to pick my brains about something then I'm here for you!
