Little Achievers Day Nursery is a Rosy Apple Childcare facility that has built up a strong reputation within the local community for quality early years learning and childcare in which parents can feel confident and secure.
Little Achievers Day Nursery uses the Reggio Emilia Approach to Early Years Childcare and Education, a philosophy that uses four key principles to focus on a child's natural development. The approach is both child-centred and directed, taking the philosophy that learning must make sense to the child in order to be effective and meaningful.
Little Achievers Day Nursery is registered for eighty-two children in total and has purposely designed outdoor spaces. Each child has their own key carer who looks to ensure early years’ potential is achieved. The nursery is split into 3 age ranges however the rooms can flow easily to aid transition for children when moving to new groups.
The nursery was awarded the E-quality Counts award by the National Day Nurseries Association in August 2015.
Learning journeys for all children are offered both to see the progress their child is making at nursery via photographs, written comments and communication, along with being a beautiful portfolio of memories for the future.
All nursery pre-school children are able to access forest school at Little Achievers Urban Forest School Nursery, within their timetable of nursery attendance.

Love my Theo going here. When I turn up all staff feel like i have known them for years. Theo is a bit quiet when there but I am sure he will pick up with them soon (he isnt quiet at home lol). Great staff and am glad he is attending.

My son joined nursery in January 2026, staff and management are very approachable, my son learned a lot of things since then. Very grateful with all the staff that supported him. I can say that we considered nursery as his second home. Highly recommended

Little Achievers Day Nursery is amazing! The staff are fantastic. The nursery is always clean and bright, a lovely welcoming space for children and has a wide range of toys and activities. My son is currently having ballet lessons and he loves it! The staff are excellent at managing my son's allergies and they are always cautious when it comes to anything pertaining to that, which is very comforting. I would highly recommend this nursery!

She's always full of sand from head to toe, even in her shoes and clothes. (I know this can't be helped sometimes but every day!?) Parents are supposed to get daily updates and my last update of my child was on the 24th of September. No information passed on when she's been collected so I never know how she's been or if she had her meals etc. I have spoken to the manager about some concerns I've had about my child in the nursery and I've had no contact from them since. I have since taken my child out of this nursery as I feel it is not the right fit.

Thank you for your review. We take this seriously at Little Achievers Day Nursery (Rosy Apple Childcare). Your concern was passed to Higher Management, who have tried contacting you however unfortunately were unable to receive a response. At our nursery we encourage learning through play, assisted by our well-trained staff members, currently working towards the Curiosity Approach Accreditation. We apologise for yourself not receiving daily updates. We verbally passed updates to relatives on collection, had we known this information was not passed on, we could have used a different form of communication (parent app). We strive on communication with parents offering multiple forms of this, either verbally at the end of day, or with regular updates throughout the day using the App. We're sorry to hear that you've taken your child out of Little Achievers Day Nursery, we wish your child all the best going forward.
The staff are brilliant here, always going above and beyond for my child and I always feel at ease knowing my child is in great care. Clean rooms and always keeping me updated with meals, activities etc.

My girls love this nursery. The staff are friendly and very warm. They have a lot of activities for example singing, dancing, learning, painting and more. My 3-year-old kid can speak and write in English thanks to the nursery. as English is not my first language.

Thank you so much for your lovely review - we are so happy that your children are enjoying our nursery.
Brilliant nursery. My little boy loves going to nursery, especially on Tuesdays when he goes swimming. He's come on leaps and bounds since being here. All the staff are amazing with him and all make time to speak to him when he arrives. He loves the food and usually has 2-3 helpings.

Little Achievers Day Nursery has been fantastic for my son. His socialisation has come on leaps and bounds and he has become even more independent than before. The staff are very friendly and are working with us to help potty train. My son has several allergies and they are very vigilant and take extra caution to not expose him to any of his allergens. Overall the nursery is very well managed, communication is great between staff and parents, but most importantly my son has a wonderful time everytime he goes and is very fond of the staff at Little Achievers (always referring to staff members when at home).
Absolutely lovely nursery, brilliant with my daughter .

Hello, these ladies at this nursery don’t get enough credit. They go above and beyond to help parents out with their children and help with other things and always making children and us parents welcome. My daughter attended here 8 years ago did all the way up to pre school and now goes to after school pick up. My little boy enjoys nursery they're like his second mums. He has also been asked if we’d like him to take part in swimming lessons which is an amazing opportunity. I can’t say one bad word about this nursery and the staff but thank you for everything ladies.
I've used this nursery since 2017, I wouldn't send my children anywhere else they always go the extra mile, and they always fit my son in during the school holidays my kids loved every nursery teacher there always happy to help.

Really nice staff, my daughter has been here since she was two years old, she's now going on seven and still attends after-school pick-ups. She's always happy and enjoys going here. Overall I would recommend this nursery.
