Little Green Rascals Day Nursery Poppleton

Both our children have always been so happy at LGR Poppleton. The staff are wonderful and make every day fun, not to mention the delicious meals they eat there! Their approach to encouraged learning in a playful way has had a huge impact on our children's knowledge. The social and communication skills they have learnt will stay with them for life. The preschool room is a great transition for school and I would recommend this nursery to any prospective parent.

We're really grateful to all at LGR for the care they have shown our family and all the support for our two children who have attended the nursery.

Our experience at LGR Poppleton has been excellent. The staff are amazing and they put so much care and attention into our child's learning + development. Our little boy loves going to nursery and it is clear how well he is cared for and looked after while he is there. His individual needs have been identified by the staff (e.g fussy eating) and they ensure these needs are met. We couldn't be happier with how are child's cared for at LGR Poppleton. Thank you!

The staff at LGR have consistently gone above and beyond in supporting not only our child but also us as a family. The team has been incredibly helpful with everything from answering funding questions to setting up payments to best support our child's needs. We've also really appreciated the thoughtful resources sent home, such as the interactive learning bags introducing new key workers and activities to help support our child's emotional development using the Colour Monster. We currently use the early drop-off option, which has made a big difference. It allows our child to have a calmer, quieter start to the day and also helps us manage our work-life balance. The nursery provides so many wonderful opportunities for our child, including activities like French and rugby, which add great variety to their learning & development. Finally, and most importantly, the bond that nursery staff in each of the rooms have formed with our child has been amazing.

I could praise how wonderful my son's practitioner is, she is such a wonderful staff member and a complete asset to the nursery. My son's key worker had mentioned to us a few months ago some concerns regarding my son's balance/hearing and as new parents we did not notice these signs as quickly as our son's key worker. We made a GP appointment and were referred for a hearing test, which showed that potentailly he had an ear issue, we have to return in 8 weeks. I really cannot express how grateful we are to our son's key worker, she had noticed these issues before we have, and really hope said practitioner is praised for her fantastic work. If these concerns weren't raised as quickly as they were, this could have had further issues with my son's development.

We couldn't be nappier with the care our 2 year old receives at LGR. She absolutely loves coming to nursery and has formed lovely bonds with the practitioners. They create such a nurturing and nappy environment for the children. We have seen such a positive development in her confidence, communication, and social skills. We truly feel that our child is cared for as an individual, and we are so grateful to the whole team. We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a warm, supportive place for their child.

I absolutely love Little Green Rascals Poppelton, my little girl has come on so much since starting in July! She started in the cheeky hen's room and is now in preschool, it was such an easy and calm transition for her which she was super during! All of the staff around both me a my daughter have been fully supported during the months she's been here. Her key workers have always been amazing and so supporting and so have the other supporting staff I have met. The nursery have a lovely indoor and outside area which my daughter loves to explore. She comes home every night excited to tell me about what exciting activities she has been doing during the day! Everyone is so helpful and any questions are always answered. I would recommend this nursery to everyone I know!

The staff are great with children and lots of great learning opportunities, we are very excited about the extra classes started, like Baby Bond, which offer extra learning for our child.

Main concern is safety at pick-up, no barriers and it's a busy road. Not many parking spaces. Often have to park a distance away. Cobbles loose outside at pick-up. We don't seem to be getting a lot of learning moments like we used to.

We have always had an excellent experience and so has our child at LGR. The staff are kind and helpful and make it a home from home. Our child has grown and progressed so much at LGR.

We've been so impressed by Little Green Rascals Poppleton. Our son loves his nursery workers, has made lots of little friends and always comes home happy and telling us about his day. The team work hard to provide great learning activities for the children, from tuff tray activities to crafts, outdoor activities to learning to sign. The food sounds amazing (I wish I ate as well as these toddlers!) and the communication with management has always been quick and efficient. It's been a fantastic nursery for us!

Little Green Rascals Poppleton is the best money I will ever spend. My little one has come on so much since attending we put her in extra days. The facilities are great and activities are always engaging and relevant to the theme of the week. The staff are wonderful they all go above and beyond on a daily basis to make the children feel included, safe and to develop themselves.

Little Green Rascals Poppleton has been a wonderful, fulfilling, safe environment for our daughter and one that has provided her with stimulation and learning throughout her time with them. Staff forge caring, therapeutic relationships with the children and show kindness at all times. We have been having a difficult time in our personal lives recently and the nursery have gone above and beyond what would ever be expected of them and we are forever grateful that they have provided a consistent and happy environment for our daughter. The children are fed substantial, healthy meals and are taught through a variety of different ways. I feel like my daughter is looked after at the absolute standard I would expect her to be when apart from us and I never have a worry at drop off, nothing has been too much in them supporting her and fostering her development. We love LGR Poppleton.

My son attends the Cheeky Hen room at Poppleton Little Green Rascals and has been for the last 2 years. He absolutely adores the staff team and is always excited about going in on a morning. His favourite thing to do is to join in with the little football session in the preschool room on a Thursday. Thank you for taking such good care of my little rascal and giving him such a great start for the future.

The managers are very helpful and accommodating, space permitting, any extra days that have had to be arranged at short notice. The setting is rural but idyllic for days out in the summer when regular walks are taken.
