Overall Experience

Little Pioneers Tavistock Nursery is absolutely exceptional! My little one has come on leaps and bounds since joining and I can see the difference, he's so well looked after and the staff are so kind to us as parents and the children. It's nice to get reports from the staff about the children and I love seeing photos of the activities they do during the days my little boy is in.

It was an excellent experience when my child went to Little Pioneers. She was so excited each and every day to reach the nursery, it was a true sign of how the nursery and the environment would be. The teachers were supportive and appreciative.

Overall Experience
My daughter started this nursery in June 2023 and has just recently left and the care she received whilst being at this nursery, I couldn't have been more happier with. She used to be so happy and excited about going to nursery to see all her teachers and her friends. Everyone was so loving and caring which was very reassuring.
I would 100% definitely recommend this nursery to anyone who needs help with childcare.

Fantastic nursery and fantastic staff.

Review from Emma O (Mother of Child) published on 3 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little boy started Little Pioneers Tavistock in January 2024 at 8 months as I was returning back to work, naturally I was anxious to leave him and worried how he would settle, the girls were so understanding and accommodating, I cannot fault them, they have been amazing. We are always welcomed with a smile in the morning, updated throughout the day on how he is doing and given a recap on pick up. He now goes in with no problems with a big smile.
I love how many different areas there are for him to explore even at this young age, including the sensory and indoor garden room and outside space.

Nothing is too much trouble, the staff are all lovely. Thank you!

Overall Experience

My little girl has just started going to Tavistock and all of the staff have made the transition over from a different setting as easy and as stress free as possible, for us both. The atmosphere every time I go into in the nursery, is so positive and the kids all seem to having the best time.

Review from H C (Mother of Child) published on 26 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We just want to say to everyone at Little Pioneers Tavistock that we’re beyond grateful for all of the care and love you’ve given to our little one. She started when she was just a little baby when we came out of the crazy lockdown. You have played a huge role in her development, and she’s learnt so much and become such a confident social butterfly! Your advice on how we can support her development at home has been incredible. We’re especially grateful for your understanding and support when it’s come to our little ones allergies.

We all absolutely adore you all and would recommend the nursery to anyone. If we have another little one we’ll be back!

The staff at the nursery are fantastic. They have brought my little girl on so much and treat her as though she is one of their own. Very professional but super friendly. Faultless staff and faultless nursery. My little girl has been here almost 2 years and I recommend it to everyone I know. Keep up the good work!

Overall Experience

I will start by saying am really happy my son is part of Little Pioneers, he has improved so much from when he started and the activities he does makes me wonder for his age, his knowledge about the use of building blocks also is far above average, we are impressed with his observation from school and also I want to appreciate all his carers and teachers and all the management, I will recommend Little Pioneers any day any time, a big thumb up.

Overall Experience

I’ve been with the nursery for 2 months and I’ve had nothing but a great experience! My child enjoys going in, he is himself there which is a great sign that he is comfortable and he is happy when I go to pick him up. The staff are very nice and welcoming and always happy to listen to you and give you advice or listen and do what I need for my son! They are amazing! I couldn’t recommend that nursery enough! They communicate throughout the day and it’s amazing, I get excited for my child to go to nursery to see what he gets up to throughout the day instead of being worried they are doing this and that it’s so relaxed and they listen! Such a brilliant nursery

Overall Experience
I don't have enough good things to say about the nursery and staff.
My daughter started in February 2022, and she is absolutely thriving; the staff encourage her development every step of the way.

My favourite thing at the moment has to be how happy my daughter is going in from getting out of the car; she runs to the front gate, once in, heads straight for her room. She has an amazing bond with the staff, and I can't thank them enough for looking after my little one.

Overall Experience

My son started when he was only 7 months old and since then he has come on so much! Seeing my son's face light up as soon as he enters the nursery says it all! And it massively reassures you as a parent! You are definitely doing something right when these children are so happy to come into the nursery! It makes parents leave happy and that's how it should be! This nursery is by far the best! Been amazing since day 1! Literally have not got one bad word to say about this amazing nursery and the staff! Thank you for everything and keep being amazing guys

My daughter has been attending Tavistock nursery in Sunderland for a while now. She loves it and has come on leaps and bounds since. Her relationship with the staff is lovely to see, they really care. They are worth their weight in gold. Our new arrival later on in the year will certainly be joining also

Fabulous place, had both my children in here until they left for school and will definitely get baby number three a place here when the time comes, amazing staff and wouldn't go anywhere else for childcare. Both of my children thrived here, and fully enjoyed nursery time.
