Very accommodating and flexible when needed to swap days.
Little Acorns is such a good nursery. My son has been going there for over a year and a half now, and soon enough my daughter will be going as well. I could not fault the nursery or the staff in any way whatsoever. They are all brilliant!
My son started this nursery when he was 12 months old. He settled in really well. He loves it now. Staff are lovely and very reassuring. Out of all the nurseries we visited, this one really stood out. We are really happy that we picked this one. The activities they do and the food they make - everything is perfect.
Our daughter started nursery around 4 months ago as she was a lockdown baby and hasn’t socialised with anyone else other than her parents. She has settled well into her room and has come on so much since starting nursery. She has developed good relationships with both staff and her peers. Nursery keeps us updated on everything she does during her time there including sending pictures to us of her doing different activities. We would highly recommend this nursery and can’t praise them enough. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing nursery. Staff are so lovely. My daughter has been going for nearly 2 years and she loves going. The manager/owner is great, nothing is ever too much trouble. My daughter has come on so much because of this nursery and the brilliant staff. Amazing.
My child has just completed his first week full time at Little Acorns and I am so pleased we sent him here. Before he started, the team were so welcoming and were happy to answer any questions I had. My child has had a few wobbles when dropping him off but the staff have made so much effort in comforting him and updating me with great communication through phone calls and learning book updates. We can’t wait for his second week.
My daughter started nursery when she was quite young and this was by far the best baby room I’d seen in my months of searching the local area. She’s been there almost a year now and all the girls at nursery treat her like their own and that’s all I could ever ask for. The daily updates and pictures keep me in the loop and put a smile on my face every day. Would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat - she has a blast every single day and she’s developing so much.
My children love going to nursery, they love the staff, and they're both coming on leaps and bounds in terms of their development! Very impressed.
Cannot recommend this nursery enough. My little one has been going here for 7 months now and he absolutely loves it! He has come on leaps and bounds since he started. It is such a friendly nursery and they always make you feel at ease. The staff go above and beyond I wouldn't have him anywhere else. They look after them like they are one of their own. Thanks for the amazing jobs you all do for my child.
Throughout these difficult times, the nursery and their staff have been fantastic. Ensuring a safe and friendly environment for the children.
The staff are all very welcoming and I feel extremely comfortable leaving my child with them. The policies are always adhered to when a child is ill or has injured themselves so you know they are always cared for very well.
Also, the food is incredible and my child never leaves an empty plate.
For four years, the team at Little Acorns have looked after each my three children.
Little Acorns have provided excellent and tailored care for each child. The level of care has been fantastic and staff take time and effort to get to know each child and cater to their individual needs. Each child has thrived in Little Acorns and has settled from the minute we walked through the door. They recognise different methods on how to encourage them to learn, and also how they can reassure and calm them when the need arises.
Each room caters for their age group and there are plenty of different learning materials for the age ranges.
My children have enjoyed their meals - which appears evident as they are always asking for another helping!
We initially chose Little Acorns due to its ratings and location. On relocating ourselves, instead of changing nurseries, we opted to drive the additional distance we are so happy with the level of care.
I wholeheartedly recommend Little Acorns.
Our child has settled in really well at Little Acorns and has developed so much since attending. All the staff are friendly and care about their charges and their development. The kids are always doing something, the menu for food is fab and they go outside most days. We have been really happy with our choice of nursery, love the set-up and facilities, and always recommend it to others. Keep up the good work!
Little Acorns have looked after both of our girls. They are very engaged with the parents as well as the children and do lots of extra activities such as swimming and languages. The facilities are lovely at the nursery and the food is varied and healthy, which they provide a sample of when we go in for an Open Evening. The team really care about the children and we would highly recommend it to anyone.
A wonderful nursery that me and my husband always describe as going to Mary Poppins land because it's so good, the staff are so kind and caring and brilliant with our little one! He loves going every day! The food is amazing, all freshly made and he is given such a variety that he's a brilliant eater of anything now! The facilities and different baby/infant/preschool rooms are all equipped with everything you could imagine and it always makes me smile to see our little one's artwork on the walls and have them to take home! The outside area is great too, a big park with a mud kitchen which the little ones get to run around and explore in every day so lots of fresh air! We couldn't recommend this place enough!
All the staff are great and very friendly, they offer lots of exciting activities for the children, in and out of nursery, my son currently has Spanish lessons once a week at Little Acorns, it’s great for him to have this opportunity to learn and listening to the new words he learns every week.
I visited several local nurseries before my son started and at Little Acorns you get that good feeling as soon as you walk through the door!
Would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.
My daughter went to Little Acorns for three years before starting school in September. She loved her time at nursery, which I think speaks for itself!
We have been very happy with the nursery from the management and staff to the menu choices for the children, something that I am very passionate about! We feel very reassured that when our other little girl starts next week, that she will also love her time at Little Acorns and I know the staff will help her settle in well.
I would highly recommend little acorns nursery.
I would highly recommend and would not hesitate to send another child there if we’re lucky enough to have a second.
Outstanding nursery, my son loves it here. The staff are friendly and helpful, taking the time to go over everything. My son has settled in really well since starting and always has a great day. They have great events for the children and parents, making everything inclusive for everyone. Importantly, I know that when I drop my little one off he is safe and happy.
Highly recommend!
I couldn’t be happier with Little Acorns and the care that they provide. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to other parents. It is a huge relief to know that my little girl is happy and well looked after.
