Little Leprechauns help children grow and meet their potential in a safe and playful environment.
Activities are planned around the interests of the children, to build a sustainable educational environment for each child to explore.
Each child is allocated a ‘key person’ who is responsible for the child’s well-being and communicates regularly with parents to keep parents informed of every aspect of their child’s day.

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.

The staff is brilliant, Nayla settled in quite quickly. They really are caring and understanding and treat every child as a little individual. I have noticed that Nayla is becoming more independent which is amazing. I really recommend this nursery to anyone who ask me.

This is our second local nursery and the difference is night and day Little Leprechauns is far superior. The delight in our little mans face was never seen in the last setting. This is the measure I use and by that measure LL is the best setting in Chesterfield.

Little Leprechauns is our sons second nursery. He has developed so much more than his last since moving. The staff take a real interest in my son and our family. We receive regular updates and detailed observations. Our son always comes away from nursery in a great mood, with a big smile on his face and often with art work he has made in class. My husband and I are comfortable and confident that our son is well looked after and cared for. His transition from one room to the next was seamless and we were all supported with this too.
Friendly staff always gives a good handover Oliver always comes out smiling.

Nice and welcoming setting, the staff are compassionate and care oriented, care is given on a personal need of the child. My son loves it here and is happy with every member of the staff. It's a home away from home environment.

Nursery have been incredible with my son. When he started he was rather delayed with his speech and now, with their help, we can't get him to ever be quiet. He loves coming here and has so much fun and I can tell the staff enjoy their job aswell.
