Review from Carisse R (Mother of Child) published on 26 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery. She gets excited every morning when we arrive in the car park. She loves all of the staff and has a great time. She is really settled there and it's such a comfort to know that she's happy and that she's getting a high level of care every day. My daughter has been attending nursery full-time, term time, since January 2020 when she was just 6 months old. All of the staff have been so important to her development, even more so in the current circumstances where we can't see family often - the staff and her little friends have become her family. They've helped her with her walking and social development and encourage her love for crafts and music.

Overall Experience
I highly recommend this nursery to those who wish their child to become successful. They really focus on the individuals.
My daughter is in school now. She attended this nursery and I was glad she did because she received all the necessary knowledge she needed for a good start in school.

Very friendly atmosphere too, more like family.

Overall Experience

My daughter started here in January 2020 and has really come out of her shell in all ways. She’s got a brilliant bond with all the staff and is constantly smiling when we come to the nursery and runs up the path! Her speech has come on heaps, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the staff for this as it was something I was worried about. The staff there love every child like they are their own. I know she’s in safe hands, thank you.

Review from Lucy F (Mother of Child) published on 26 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little one started at the nursery in August, they have been absolutely amazing. She is difficult to settle and she is only going once a week, that would be a massive challenge to any nursery. But at this nursery, she settled quite fast and loves going. All the girls have been fab with my little one, she loves them so much especially one in particular. They have been really flexible as well which is crucial for working parents. Not to mention about my little one speaking two languages and when she started she only spoke fluent Hungarian, now she speaks properly in English too! Big thank you to all of you ladies, you are fantastic.

Little Achievers Urban Forest School Nursery was recommended by a family friend to me, when I visited the nursery the hospitality of staff was excellent. I love the fact that my daughter is always excited to go to school, her speech has also improved dramatically. Staff are friendly and listen to you all the time. Keep doing a great job.

All the staff are very polite and welcoming. My daughter is only two and to see her so happy makes me happy.
Also, knowing that when I'm at work, knowing my child is safe and looked after is a big deal to me.

Excellent nursery 10/10.

Review from Parvin P (Mother of Child) published on 7 January 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

All three of my children attend this nursery and absolutely love it. All the staff are lovely and friendly, especially the manager. They are positive, passionate and accommodating. I feel confident leaving my children at the nursery knowing they are in good hands. The staff are always happy to provide an honest account of how the children's day has gone. The nursery's recent Reggio Emilia approach provides the children with a fantastic environment and space in which they explore and delve deeper into their interests. I would recommend this nursery to other parents.

Overall Experience

Love the staff that look after my child. Improvements would be to send some reports every month. Last year I enjoyed the app. This year, the diary idea I don't like. Would prefer something electronic as I don't come into the nursery.

Overall Experience
My son comes here for after school club in the holidays. He loves all the staff and children who are here. He enjoys the various activities that he can do, clay making and any art activity.

He loves going outside to help the staff feed the chickens and enjoys playing outside in the outdoor area. My son especially likes to play in the messy play and sand and never wants to come home at home time.

Overall Experience

I love Little Achievers Urban Forest School Nursery for many reasons@ their flexibility, the child-led approach, the setting, the Forest part, but mainly the staff. It took my son about a year to properly settle but they were caring, persevering, gentle and professional and he now can't wait to go. The staff are friendly, welcoming and inspiring. I can't recommend them enough.

Review from A D (Mother of Child) published on 4 December 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
My son thoroughly enjoys going to Little Achievers Urban Forest School Nursery. He has been attending the nursery for nearly three months now and is so settled and content there. He has bonded really well with all the staff members, learning their names and even calling one staff member "nan".
The nursery has fantastic facilities. My son loves playing in the water and heads straight for an apron to get stuck in every morning.

He also loves the sensory room and is reluctant to leave if he is in there at home time. He is learning new things every day. I am very happy with the overall standards that the staff and nursery provide.

When my child started nursery I was very pleased with the way all the staff came across. It made me feel very comfortable in leaving my child in their care. He has become so confident and gained quite a lot of knowledge from attending Little Achievers.
