Review from B H (Mother of Child) published on 9 July 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been attending for a few months and has settled in brilliantly, building great bonds with staff. I'm kept up to date with what he's doing, eating and with photos on the app every day and nothing is too much trouble. Parents are helped to feel involved. Handover is always friendly and I'm informed even more about his day, I know he's in safe hands here. There's lots of toys and resources, so my child is always entertained and learning. There's always outdoor play when the weather permits, which is great for active children, and a play barn too. Varied meals and snacks are served and my child enjoys it all! Very happy with our choice in nursery and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anybody!

Review from C S (Mother of Child) published on 17 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has been attending Little Achievers Forest School Nursery now for a year, the staff are extremely friendly and you can see the connection they have with all the children. As with any settling-in period, all children struggle to adjust to a new setting, however the staff here are amazing and clearly care for the children and help this transition. I love the fact the children spend as much time as possible outside experiencing the nature and just being children and getting mucky. I can't thank the staff for all they have done for the progression I have seen in my child, help with potty training and his development throughout his care at this nursery.

Reply from Hayley Bancroft, Manager at Little Achievers Forest School Nursery

Thank you very much for your review, we are so pleased that your son soon settled with us and enjoys being at nursery with his friends.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to this nursery since she was six months old, she is now two, and she absolutely loves going there. She gets excited each day when she goes! She loves all the staff and constantly repeats their names and asks to go see them! I couldn't find a better nursery and staff to trust with my daughter!

Reply from Hayley Bancroft, Manager at Little Achievers Forest School Nursery

We love this little one so much, such a cheeky little sole.

Review from A B (Mother of Child) published on 13 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy absolutely loves going to nursery here. He has so much fun that he sometimes doesn't want to come home! He started at 12 months and the staff were very flexible and understanding of how hard it is when your little one starts nursery. He's now been going for almost a year and he loves it. He loves all the staff, the activities and has made lots of friends. It's in a lovely setting and he loves playing in the outside area with the toys outside. Toys are regularly changed and updated which keeps him interested. Communication is fantastic and we are kept very up to date with everything going on. We couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery.

Reply from Hayley Bancroft, Manager at Little Achievers Forest School Nursery

Thank you very much for your kind words. We appreciate your comments we love having him just as much as he likes being here!

We are so pleased that we made the decision to send our son to this nursery. They are brilliant at creating a welcoming atmosphere for the children and parents. We always appreciate the effort that they put into giving regular updates throughout the day to let us know how he is doing. They are committed to catering to individual needs and offering engaging activities. Our son loves attending and we always feel reassured and secure leaving him in their care.

Overall Experience
I had to put my daughter in nursery a little earlier than I was hoping to, but since her first day she’s come on so much she’s settled in nicely and she’s made her own little friends. Staff always update me on her day so I can be reassured while I’m working and can see she’s happy enjoying herself. She is always doing crafts and activities.

Very happy mummy.

Warm, friendly staff. Excellent communication regarding what she's been up to/all the food she's eating (gets a more varied diet than me!). Good focus on learning/development, even from a young age. Great flexibility on schedule (half days, etc).

Overall Experience

Little Achievers Forest School Nursery is amazing. My little one has loved it from day one, it is such a good fit for her. All the staff are so lovely and hardworking. They are outdoors all the time in summer and go for walks around the surrounding farm regularly and the indoor provision is wonderful too.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Little Achievers Forest School Nursery for over 12 months now and I cannot fault them at all, the staff are lovely and caring for all the children. My daughter's days are full of different activities and new learning experiences. The staff use the app to keep us updated every step of the way, so I know what she’s eaten, done and how long she’s slept. The staff are experienced and it fills me with confidence when leaving her to go to work.

Review from Chloe N (Mother of Child) published on 10 October 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We made the decision to change my little boy and was a little worried if he would settle with the change. My child has now been at the nursery just over a month and the change in him has been amazing. He now cheers and claps on the way down the lane to the nursery, he runs in the door and at pick up he is so tired from an active day. The staff are all amazing and super friendly, I can now go to work knowing my child is happy and settled and what a relief it has been, I can't thank all the staff at Little Achievers enough it's made such a difference to our lives.

Friendly staff, and detailed daily updates.

Our one-year-old settled after a week and the staff were very supportive. Communication runs very smoothly. Available facilities are right for our child and we can't wait for the weather to improve for him to maximise what is being offered.

The best nursery around! My son, who is 12 years old now, went to this nursery, and now my 10-month-old little girl goes too! The staff are incredible! The nursery itself is just so lovely! My little girl was struggling with separation anxiety, and the nursery staff was brilliant with her and me!

Great nursery. Our two children have settled in superbly. Love the app and receiving notifications/pics and updates on how they're doing each day. Great for the memories and being able to download key moments of our children learning and having fun.

Overall Experience

My child has been attending the nursery for less than a year and loves her time there. Staff are always welcoming and attentive. Activities are carried out daily and the outdoor play area is loved by her. The bonus factor is the location on a farm with surrounding fields and sheep which the children are able to experience when playing outdoors.

Overall Experience

We've been using Little Achievers Forest School Nursery for our nursery provision for around 2.5 years with our eldest initially (who had an amazing experience in the preschool room) and now with our daughter (in the baby room). The facilities are amazing. Our eldest did swimming, sports, ballet and forest school. Our youngest is loved and cared for - nothing is ever too much. The staff are always happy to talk to you at the end of the day or provide reassurance throughout. We love Little Achievers Forest School Nursery.

Overall Experience

I am so happy I chose Little Achievers for my son, he started at 1 year old and the journey for him and me has been amazing the whole way through. My son has so much confidence going to nursery and staying there. He has made great friends and trusts all the workers. I love hearing the activities they have done and the creative fun adventures they go on. He is more willing to try new foods at nursery, they cook good food for lunches. I would highly recommend.
