The attention they pay to each individual child is brilliant...the activities are enjoyable but also educational and skilful for the child. My little girl loves going to nursery and she's always singing now like her teachers. Her teachers are very friendly and approachable.

We are thankful to little acorns' staff for helping in settling in my son when he started last autumn. Everyone there is very supportive and caring. The nursery keeps us informed at all times if anything happens to our little one and most importantly, our son enjoys being there!

The staff are so kind and caring and my daughter absolutely adores seeing them when we arrive in the morning. As a parent, I feel as though I am kept informed and updated and I can see that the nursery is a fantastic environment in which children feel safe, secure and happy.

This nursery has a family feel to it and although pricey, definitely worth the money. Keep up the excellent work!

Choosing a nursery is a tough decision and I am so happy we went for Little Acorns. Both my daughters go to Little Acorns and the oldest has been there for 2.5 years now. It's not a large nursery and the children are known to all the staff members, even when I have randomly called in, the staff in charge are able to tell me immediately how the girls have been that day. I know my children are cared for and loved there. My girls have really come along, they are both confident and chatty.
The sickness policy is good and the staff are very reasonable when calling you and are happy to give analgesia.
The nursery has started using tapestry for some time, which is great, it's so lovely to see what the kids have been up to while you are at work. A bonus is that they supply the nappies/creams/Calpol themselves. And they are always open except bank holidays. They are even open on Good Friday!
Brilliant nursery for my son. I am very lucky to have such an amazing keeper for my son and his main keeper is fantastic!! Also the other member of staff in his room is extremely kind and helpful whenever I have concerns or questions. I would always recommend this nursery.

My son has really developed since joining this nursery. The staff really take time and care on my child's development. He has also really grown in confidence. Staff keep me informed on my son's progress and provide regular updates. I can't fault Little Acorns.
