They always meet the needs of my child when she is upset or hurt.
They listen to parents and their wishes they have for their child in helping them grown and learn and if they have done something at Nursey they speak about it and suggest trying it at home as well.
If you have any concerns or need
some support or advice they are always there to help and listen to you.
They always update you with how your child's day has been through the app and they are always fast at replying when you want to check in on your child throughout the day.

My child moved up rooms just after the Christmas break. The staff in his new room are incredible - they've helped him settle so quickly and he's going in so much easier on a morning too! Parent communication is always brilliant and he loves nursery that much it's a battle to get him to come home at
the end of the day!

I have had my daughter in this nursery now for almost two months in that time she has come along so well her vocabulary has progressed and she is just a happier overall she loves seeing her friends at nursery I wouldn't send her anywhere else the staff are so kind even though my son doesn't attend there
yet they always greet him with a smile and say hello to him. I have a homely feeling when dropping and picking up my child communication is outstanding as well as updates to what my child has eaten how much she has eaten how she's slept and her nappies ect when picking her up her hand overs have always exceeded expectations I could stand talking to the girls for hours. the nursery is alway clean and has activities set out we can't thank little rascals enough for bringing her out of her shell.

My little boy attends little rascals and has done now for just over a year, we are really happy with the nursery setting, the rooms always look inviting and theirs always really good activities set up for the children to explore, they go out every single day which is what I love, my boy loves being
on the move and loves everything physical so to be able to explore the outdoor area daily is a plus for us! My little boy is happy in the room and I'm at peace when I'm leaving him there to go to work, he's made some little friends and it's really good to be kept up to date during the day via the app. I'm really happy we picked this nursery as the staff are so lovely and inviting. The communication between myself, the room staff and the management is 10/10.

Absolutely amazing nursery staff are incredibly kind and caring for each and every child that attends, would highly recommend.
Although if I was to suggest something it would be to more days out to the local surroundings for example lovely walks to see nature, and maybe the local library more often
for the older children to read some books

My little one has been going to this nursery for nearly one year now. My eldest child went to another nursery in the local area which I was not happy with. I then discovered this nursery, I am sooo happy I found it.
I am receiving constant updates throughout the day of my little one knowing what he
had eaten and done that day. Each day I see pictures of the interactive sessions the staff do with the children.
Recently they have placed on school trips which have been great and have other future trips planned.
I feel this nursery has developed my trust and I feel safe leaving my little on me there whilst I work.
I always highly recommend this nursery to my friends and family members.

My little girl has been going here for 2 years now she loves it and has really become so much more confident I feel nursery has really helped her become the little girl she is today.
The only thing I would like to change is the food . It seems to not rotate much and it's always sandwiches or soup in
the evening.
Also when I collect my little girl there is a few staff members that give me the Same ' she's has a great day' which I'm sure most days she does but not every day is the same I'd like a bit more in depth of how her day has been as I hear this repeatedly said to a lot of parents during collections

Since our son started at Little Rascal's at 9 months old, he has grown and developed so much. The staff are incredibly attentive, friendly, and thorough in everything they do. The meals are fresh and look delicious, there's a wonderful variety of activities throughout the day, and our son has formed
lovely bonds with the team. We truly couldn't recommend them enough. The daily app updates are also fantastic and really help put our minds at ease.

I couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are so kind, caring, and professional. My child always comes home happy and full of stories about the day. The environment is clean, safe, and very welcoming. I feel confident leaving my little one there, knowing they are well cared for and learning
so much every day. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a wonderful place for their child.

Both my children who are 2 and 3 came into my care fulltime and straight away i was able to get them into little rascals and the staff were amazing from the get go! My daughters struggled at first, but all the staff made my girls and me feel welcome everyday we attended. I couldnt thank the staff here
enough for how theyve been, my daughters absolutely love going to nursery now and its pretty much all they talk about at home "see my friends" and "have nom noms at nursery". I would recommend this nursery to anyone seeking early start with their children. Thank you again

My eldest who is nearly 3 has been here almost 2 years. He developed so much confidence and communication after being here just a few months and this has continued he speech is improving month on month he now counting past 10 and has good shape recognition. The nursery facilitate different activities
throughout the year that he really enjoys such as forest school, bilingual sing, football any many more. They supported us with potty training. My youngest is 1 and has attended the last 3/4 months he joined at 10 months when I returned to work and I was so worried leaving him much younger than I did his brother. The nursery were so supportive and were happy to arrange an extra settlement day. He absolutely loves it too he has become so much more confident and independent during this time highly recommended.

This is an amazing nursery for my little one. They nursery pay attention to all details. One key thing is staff will message on famly to check if everything is alright in case my little one hasn't turned up to nursery yet.
I love the creativity that is displayed through the lessons they teach which
is really great. My son loves it here and all the staff have been amazing in helping him settle in to nursery.

I send both my sons here (3 years old and 1 year old) they absolutely love it!
The staff have been so patient with my 1 year old when he was struggling to let me leave sending me pictures and reassuring me that he was happy once I'd left him!
My 3 year old has made so many new friends and it is lovely
to see how his speech and confidence has started to shine since he started!
Getting constant updates on how your child is doing during their time in nursery is amazing if you're a little worried about leaving your child like I was but now I'm worry free because I know that they are thriving whilst here!
They both come home with a new song to sing which I have then got to learn aswell!
Can't thank the staff enough for keeping them safe and happy whilst I'm at work!

Amazing nursery with an amazing team. My daughter has attended this nursery for 3 years. They always have fab learning based activities lined up for the children and the days are always jam packed full of fun. Meals are of a fantastic standard with a lot of selection. Nothing negative to say about the
3 years my daughter has spent here before starting reception. Thank you Little Rascals :).

Since my daughter started Nursery in September I couldn't be more happier with her progress, the nursery have been great with communication understanding.
My daughter is non verbal and autistic and I have watched her grow in confidence also have her needs been met.
I previously have struggled to
find trust in people looking after her.
When I had lost hope of being able to find her a suitable setting to meet her needs, I looked round little rascals and was reassured they could and would.
I couldn't thank the SENCO team enough for the time and effort and love they have given to my daughter, they really have been amazing.


E has thrived since attending this nursery, her behaviours her patience and communication has come on so much.
Would recommend this nursery to anyone.
All the staff are lovely.

My child is in green room and the staff as a whole are amazing! My child's key workers are are particularly amazing! I see them regularly and speaking to them most mornings and evening on drop off and pick up! They keep me in loop and send pictures regularly throughout the day. They spend time on getting
to know my child and her personality and do in-depth observations on her. The food is good but I provide a pack up incase my child won't eat but she is picky sometimes will eat sometime won't but it does have a range of food too test her taste buds and get her use to new foods and snacks that are available are a wide range of selection .
Over all the staff are amazing and would recommend them to anyone.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.874 for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is calculated as follows: ( (368 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 406 Ratings = 4.874
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Rascals Private Day Nurseries (Station Road) is based on 34 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 34 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
