My daughter has been attending Small World Nursery, starting in the baby room and now in preschool. The staff are incredibly caring and attentive, always greeting my daughter with a smile. The nursery is well equipped and the daily activities are creative and engaging. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing and stimulating environment.
My child loves the nursery. He's really thrived since being there. The staff are great and really seem to care about the children, which is a must for me as my child is the most precious thing in the world and I feel he's in great hands there.
My daughter started small world nursery in September 2025. She was very unsettled to begin with like any other child that starts nursery. The staff are amazing with her. They managed to get her to eat things she doesn't at home the work alongside us all the time, I recieve term information on her progress and she has flourished so much. She has a good rapport with all staff and they all meet her daily needs and challenge her brain. She can name staff, and she is able to tell me everything she does and their has never been a day that she has been upset with anyone. All staff are incredible and are easy to talk to if you have concerns about your child.
My child absolutely loves this nursery. He is so excited to go in a morning and doesn't want to leave when the day is over. His progression since starting nearly a year ago has come on leaps and bounds. All the staff are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.
Amazing nursery, our daughter attends currently, has done since 8 months, and we simply cannot fault them. They're amazing with her, really helping her develop all round. I love seeing the pictures of their outings and all the stuff she's done in the day. She loves going, has made friends and loves telling us about the staff when she gets home.
The communication between nursery and home is fantastic, I always feel any information is passed over. They make it a home from home setting.
I really enjoy the daily diary the Nursery complete, it helps to see how my child has been throughout the day and what they have been doing, eating, the time they slept and nappy changes.
My child is always so excited as we enter Nursery and happy when I arrive to collect at the end of the day.
All her needs are met and the staff work with me to try different tactics such as shorter naps to help her sleep, encouraging her to use the dummy tree etc. My daughter adores her key worker.
The staff are always cleaning and have regular deep cleans. I love the no shoes rule in the baby room.
My twin boys have attended Small World Nursery since 9 months old and are now 3 and a half! The manager and the whole team have been wonderful over the years. The boys have developed so well and they particularly helped us so much with the dreaded potty training! I also love that they have the option to go to swimming lessons in pre-school too. I would recommend Small World Nursery to anyone looking for somewhere in the local area.
Absolutely amazing staff and my daughter has come so far since starting. They help your child with so much, teaching them new skills and communication skills etc the list goes on. I can't fault this nursery one bit. I highly recommend it to others.
Such an amazing nursery, the support is unreal, they really did there best with my child with additional needs, such a wonderful team, and the manager well I have no words, what she has done for my child is above and beyond amazing, would 100% recommend this nursery. Thank you so much for all your support and for your work in supporting my child.
Amazing nursery with amazing staff. They really do care for each child as they would their own. My daughter is so settled here and can't wait for my second child to start here as well. Thank you to you all.
My little girl has attended Small World Nursery for the past 2 years, she struggled to settle but all the staff are so lovely and have helped her with this. I did actually move out of the area, and change nurseries but soon took her back to Small Worlds as the new nursery just wasn't as good! She is starting school in September and we will miss everyone. Thanks so much for all your help and care Small World.
Absolute brilliant nursery, my daughter has been coming here since 8 months old and she's now 3 and a half. They do so much learning with the children my daughter loves it here. The staff are so nice and welcoming. The nursery is very homely and inviting. I love that the older children can go swimming every week this has helped my daughter's confidence in the water so much. She always loves the food provided. The nursery has been very accommodating to her needs and if her hours ever needed changing. The manager is amazing and is always available to help with anything queries or questions I have.
My daughter has been at the nursery for approx 18 months since she was 1 year old. As the nursery is small it's super homely and the staff really get to know the children, form strong bonds with them and can tailor the support they give to each child. They have a variety of activities they do with the children and my daughter is super happy there. She can't wait to be taken for swimming lessons next year.
Such warm, welcoming staff. Absolutely no complaints what so ever. I couldn't think of a better nursery to look after my children. Outstanding!
My 1-year-old has been going to the nursery for a couple of months now. I could not recommend a better place. My little boy's development has come on so fast since being at the nursery, and I’ve never seen him so happy and settled so fast anywhere.
I highly recommend this nursery.
I find Small World Nursery very welcoming. It has a lovely homely atmosphere and the staff care for the children as if they are their own. I have had a year's experience with this nursery and wouldn't hesitate in going anywhere else. I would highly recommend Small World Nursery.
My daughter has been attending Small World Nursery for over a year now. She loves all the staff at the nursery and can't wait to go in the morning. The curriculum they use has really brought her along and she is thriving. The staff are amazing.
My child has been at the nursery since they were three months old and has always been happy. There have been lots of changes over the past three years, but these haven't affected my child's well-being at the nursery. They keep me updated with what's going on and how my child is progressing on a regular basis. If you ever want a chat about anything, the manager is always happy to help and offer any advice. Overall, you can tell that the staff at the nursery enjoy their jobs and care about the children who are there.
