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.

Being milk intolerant, his needs have always been met and never overlooked. Meals are all home-cooked and healthy.
When my son started attending he was very shy and not used to being around others after the pandemic, little leprechauns always reassured me and nothing was never too much hassle. They have patience and my son always says they are his best friends. I will be sad when he leaves next year. Fantastic nursery and setting.
My daughter loves nursery, from her very first day she has been so settled thanks to the staff! They always update us on her progress and what she has been up to throughout the day. Thank you so much for all of your help.

My daughter has been attending the nursery for over a year now and has come on leaps and bounds since starting. All the staff are lovely and going to nursery is the highlight of her week! Knowing your child is in a safe, supportive and happy environment is priceless. Especially as she is developing so much too! I'm so pleased she attends Little Leprechauns, I would (and have!) recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a nursery in Chesterfield.

Both my children attend Little Leprechauns Day Nursery and absolutely love it. Right from the start they have always been passionate, friendly and helpful towards our family. The staff are great and when our eldest leaves to go to big school in September. I know she will miss it. Luckily she can still visit when dropping off her brother. Would definitely recommend.

I am so proud of how well my son has come on from day one of joining Little Leprechauns. He is always happy to go and is always excited to tell me what he's been doing when I pick him up. The staff work so hard with the children doing shows for the parents and praising the children for their efforts too. I'm so grateful to all the staff for everything they do. Everything you would want a nursery to be Little Leprechauns is. Thank you.

I looked around a number of nurseries and chose Little Leprechauns because it had a lovely feel about it. The staff are very calm, positive and loving. My little boy settled very quickly after a good transition. Staff take their time to talk you at hand over, and my little boy gets very excited when we turn the corner and park on the road where the nursery is. He has done some great activities and brought some lovely things home with him. We loved the birthday card that he made for his brother. Thank you to all staff that support my little one.
My granddaughter has been at the setting for a month now when I go to pick her up the staff are always welcoming and she is always happy when she leaves and excited to go to nursery.

Little Leprechauns have been amazing with my little boy. He has a speech delay, and they have been very supportive in helping him catch up.

I have only positive things to say about this nursery. From first enquiring about sending my son to his first day the experience with the staff was fantastic. We were offered several settling in sessions before he started properly which made me feel much more at ease about sending him. All the staff I have dealt with have been polite, informative and very friendly. My son comes out of nursery smiling after having a great day. He has learnt to sing new nursery rhymes as well as lots of other new skills thanks to the care of his nursery teachers. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a place to send their children!

I'm very happy with this nursery. I see my child is happy and he always tells me what he does. At the end of the day, the staff tells me a short summary of that day (about activities, games, food).
