Overall Experience
My son has been at this nursery full time since 9 months (11 months) and I can't fault the service. He loves the staff and they love them. Even at home his saying their names - Mariam, Zoe and Emma in particular.

I would recommend this nursery.

Review from Cristina S (Mother of Child) published on 28 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
There are simply not enough words to express how grateful we are for everything you have done for Raym. From the very first day, you welcomed him with kindness, patience, and so much love. Watching him grow into a happy, confident, and curious little boy has been such a joy, and we know that is thanks to your incredible care and dedication.
You have been so much more than a nursery-you have been a second family. Every smile, every hug, every word of encouragement, and every special memory you have given him will always have a place in our hearts.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for loving and caring for Raym as if he were your own. We will always be grateful and will never forget the wonderful start you gave him. We couldn't recommend this nursery more highly to any family looking for a safe, loving, and nurturing place for their child.

Review from S J (Mother of Child) published on 27 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Today was my daughter's last day at nursery, marking the end of nine wonderful years with all three of my children attending.

I can't thank the team enough for the care, support, and encouragement they've given my children over the years. The nursery has played such an important role in their early development, and they've all gone on to thrive after leaving.

The staff are kind, caring, and dedicated, and my husband and I have always felt completely confident leaving our children in their hands. In nine years, we've never had a single issue.

Thank you Little Swans for everything you've done for our family. We couldn't recommend this nursery more highly!

Overall Experience

Little Swans has a warm welcoming feel. My child started in jelly babies, knew she would settle in well with the staff. Now she has moved into smarties room with another amazing staff team. I am always pleased to see photos uploaded each day about what my child is doing. Staff are kind, caring and friendly. Jia comes to nursery each morning with a lovely welcome from her key person. She comes homes talking about her day at nursery.

My child started Little Swans just after his first birthday so he started in the baby room, he's now in one of the toddler rooms. He loves it there. Any concerns or questions I have the staff work around me and what works for me and my child. All staff are lovely.

Review from Aaliyah B (Mother of Child) published on 2 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son joined Little Swans in January this year, and we couldn't be happier with how smoothly his transition into nursery life has been. He is in the Smarties room and has settled in wonderfully, which is a huge testament to the warm and welcoming environment the staff in that room creates. He genuinely loves coming to nursery every day, always excited to tell us about his activities, friends and teachers. We've been absolutely thrilled to see such significant progress in his development.

The management is also a great testament to the smooth, efficiency service that we receive on a daily basis.

Overall Experience
Little swans has been amazing for my daughter. She has been attending for just over 2 years, the baby room was lovely and now she's in smarties. Rafhit and Mariam are great people who really care about the children, my daughter loves them and is always happy to go.

Thank you so much for all you do.
