The team are highly qualified and committed to providing enriching experiences for children, helping to shape them into kind, independent and successful members of the community.

Little Learners Nursery for babies and younger children (aged 3 months to 3 years) provides a warm and welcoming home from home environment. It has been purpose-built to provide a safe and secure place that is rich and stimulating. Every room has been carefully planned with the developmental needs of the children in mind. They offer high quality natural resources that are easily accessible to children. The team believe that children learn best through following their own interests, having hands-on experiences and revisiting and repeating aspects of their play, with the support of responsive adults.

The Pre-School room has places for up to 48 children, aged 3 to 5 years. Children are actively involved in their learning as they initiate their own play, with practitioners facilitating and extending the children's interests through planned activities. All resources are easily accessible, enabling children to be independent, create their own tasks, find their own solutions and develop their ideas. By the time children move on to school they have developed into confident learners who are equipped with essential skills and ready to meet the challenges ahead.

Review from Becky W (Mother of Child) published on 1 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son went to both the nursery and the pre school of little learners and can I just say these ladies are absolutely amazing. My son has level 3 autism and the bonds he can created is sensational. His key worker has been absolutely amazing ensuring he has the best time at nursery and the best experiences.
She has been there for him every single time. He adores her. He loves all of the ladies. The Senco has gone out of her way to support not only him but me aswell and has always been there for anything I need o need help with. I will never be able to explain just how much of an impact little learners has made on me and my son. Creating a safe space for my little boy and having so much patience and love and care . So for that I say thank you so so much all of you

My son settled in the nursery very fast. He loves it there and always comes in and out very happy. Little Learners Nursery staff take great care of children. They do a lot of activities with many different resources, and he learns a lot throughout the play. I feel at peace leaving him there, because
I know he's in safe hands. I would highly recommend this place.

Little learners nursery is absolutely outstanding! I honestly couldn't have wished for my son to have gone to a better place. He has thrived with the help of his key workers. The key workers themselves are one of a kind. They have so much love for the children they care for, it really does show. It
will definitely be an emotional day the day my son leaves this nursery. Not only has he bonded with his key workers but I have also. I highly recommend this nursery and I am so happy with the way things have turned out here. Thankyou!

My daughter has been with the setting since 6.5m old, she is now getting ready to leave to go to school. All the staff past and present have played a massive part in supporting her grow up to what she is now. The staff have been supportive through any issues and when her health deteriorated. They understood
my concerns in her coming back and helped us put a care plan in place for peace of mind.

My son started with little learners in April and I wouldn't change it for the world! All the ladies are absolutely amazing with him he loves all of them, they are very good with him and meet his needs even tho he doesn't talk very great! There is always a wide variety of activities for them to be doing
throughout the day and my son loves the garden and the variety of things they have out there for them to! He is currently off for the summer but he is due back in September and I wouldn't have any second thoughts about this nursery! I wouldn't pick another one I will be sending my youngest here when he is old enough as I can't fault them

My twins started Little Learners in September. At first, it was nerve-wracking for all of us however the staff made the kids settle in so easily.
One staff member in particular is a credit to the nursery. She's so kind and patient with my children, and I can see she adores them as much as they adore
her.
I will forever be grateful for the staff at Little Learners' kindness and patience towards my two.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All three of my children attended both the nursery and the preschool and I would highly recommend them to everyone.
Friendly and loving staff from cook up to management!
My children got treated absolutely amazingly and went above and beyond! If it wasn't for the Special Educational Needs Coordinator
at preschool my son wouldn't have his autism diagnosis. Nothing was too much trouble! It was sad when it was time for my children to leave to go to school.
They still help now if I have any worries or trouble. The staff ended up becoming good friends!
5 stars from me and my family!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am extremely happy with this preschool. They tell you everything you need to know when you pick up your child and are always happy to answer all of your questions/concerns.
I feel completely confident that my child is in the best hands when she is there. She looks forward to going every day and is
always in the best mood when I pick her up.
Staff goes above and beyond with your child, my daughter is obsessed with her! Says she is always playful and super helpful.
The only downside is every parent's bill is wrong every single month and you are constantly having to chase (every day) to pay your own bill and for it be corrected and the new system to view updates of your child is awful. The previous app was so much better.
But overall, I am extremely satisfied with the level of childcare provided for my child.

Almost 2 years at the nursery and my daughter can’t stop talking about how much she loves being at the nursery. All the staff members are so nurturing and supportive towards both my child and all the other kids. They are first-class staff, very pleasant, extremely knowledgeable and always place the
well-being of the children first. Especially my daughter’s key worker she is so caring and loving and gives the best hugs. Keep up the good work, you are all amazing. A big thank you to all of the team.

My little girl loves to go to Little Learners Nursery School. Every morning when she wakes up she always asks with excitement is she going there today too. The staff is lovely and they are always happy to help with any questions. They do have a parent app too so I am happy to see what my child will
be going to do that week. Overall it's a great nursery school and most of all my child loves it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Never ever met so many nice and caring staff that go above and beyond, making sure my son flourishes to his full potential, so much support is offered and so many great activities, my son always comes home and is so excited to go to school each morning, he loves going to school to see his friends but
he is also the most excited to see the staff at school and he always talked about the staff so fondly, my son is absolutely shining and I can’t thank this preschool enough for everything they have done for my son, he has learnt so much stuff since attending preschool and he really does enjoy coming to school, he loves the outdoors, even when my son is not at school he always mentions how great the teachers are and says they are like his best friends. Preschool is lovely and clean. My son was struggling with counting so he got offered more support within a week he was counting in order and all the way past 11, I love that you get regular updates too. So nice to see and see him shine.

Little Learners is just wonderful! Both of my children have attended Little Learners Nursery and Pre-School, without any problems or concerns. The staff are utterly brilliant, their facilities are fantastic and the learning materials are great. I honestly couldn’t give one fault to this nursery. It’s
got my recommendation every time. I leave my children happy and content and that’s just how I pick them up...but with bigger smiles!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.964)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.964) out of 10 for Little Learners Nursery School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.964 for Little Learners Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (162 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.964
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Learners Nursery School is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 53 number of registered child places is 10.6, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
