My children love coming to Little Ladybirds. Management are friendly, responsive and approachable - we love that they stand at the door welcoming the children in on a morning. The staff are invested in my children and truly care about how they are. We receive regular updates throughout the day and love the app to see what our children have been up to. Thanks so much to all the staff.
Thank you for this lovely review, it is a pleasure having your family here at Little Ladybirds watching them grow and develop.
Overall, we could not have been happier with our choice to send our child to Little Ladybirds and would highly recommend!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review and for choosing Little Ladybirds to be a part of your child's journey into education.
Little ladybirds welcomed us with open arms when we needed them the most. We had visited numerous nurseries, and as an EYFS teacher, I have worked with hundreds of nurseries in the area, and this nursery, was by far, the best around! My boys absolutely loved every minute attending the nursery. The staff are fabulous, always going the extra mile. They show patience, dedication, warmth and care, ensuring all the children have best possible start to their learning journey. The management staff are wonderful, standing on the door each morning to personally welcome the children and parents and always being available if needed. The nursery also does lots for the local community and celebrates everything and everyone. We travel 25 minutes to attend this nursery because we felt it was the best provision for our boys. I can't recommend this provision highly enough. The ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!!! The best management team, the best staff, the best provision, the best care, the best facilities and more!
Wow, thank you so much for this amazing review. Having your boys here has been our pleasure and watching them grow and flourish here has just been amazing. Thank you for such beautiful words and thank you for choosing us to help your family grow.
The team at Little Ladybirds go above and beyond to create a safe, stimulating, and fun environment.
Communication is excellent. We receive regular updates, photos, and reports about our child's progress, which helps us feel connected and reassured. The staff are always approachable and take time to answer any questions or concerns.
Thank you for such a lovely and honest review. We are so happy that you choose us here at Little Ladybirds and your little one will certainly be missed. Thank you.
My daughter has attended Little Ladybirds from being 3 months old right up to starting reception and they have catered for her developments throughout. More recently staff have given her opportunities to do Maths and English challenges to prepare her for school. Amazing nursery with lovely caring staff, I would always 100% recommend this nursery.
Thank you for such a wonderful review, it has been a pleasure having your daughter here, watching her grow and develop and now ready for reception.
The nursery is fantastic but the staff are out of this world. I know when I leave my little boy here he's going to have lots of fun and have a cuddle whenever he needs it. He's settled in so well and that's a definite reflection on the team. Also, its amazing walking into a room full of babies at pick up and they are all just super happy and playing together.
Thank you for this wonderful review, this is so lovely to read for parents looking for a setting for their baby knowing cuddles are freely available for their children. Thank you again.
We feel at ease and very comfortable knowing our daughter is in safe hands!
Thank you for taking the time to complete this review, we really do value and appreciate all parental feedback.
I can't recommend the nursery enough, it's such a lovely setting and the staff are all amazing at what they do. I was really nervous about leaving my eldest and I had so many silly questions, but staff answered them all with so much patience and made me feel really comfortable with our choice.
Every child needs little ladybirds
Thank you for such an amazing review, we are so happy you chose Little Ladybirds and we are proud of the journey your children are making with us.
Fantastic nursery, staff are amazing always so helpful and happy to answer any questions any time I have any. I love the app they use as it keeps my mind at ease knowing I can be kept up to date with what my child eats, sleeps, nappy changes etc. Couldn't recommend the nursery enough!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really do value all our feedback and we like to work with our families to make sure we are providing the best services.
They do so many things with them and really make you feel comfortable when you go in. Such a nice environment for the children.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for us, we really appreciate you taking the time and are pleased you have chosen Little Ladybirds.
The nursery as a whole are extremely supportive of the children, as well as the parents. The provision of updates throughout my sons time there are very reassuring.
The staff show a genuine interest in you as a family, and both my fiancee and I are very pleased with every aspect. We feel very comfortable already leaving our son in their care.
Overall, I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone currently looking for a place. I only wish I could give more than 5 stars.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review, it is amazing how far your son has come on and it is a pleasure having him here at Little Ladybirds.
Couldn't ask for a better place. My little boy struggled with eating but the staff here helped so much which has also helped with me when at home. The change I have seen since he started doing three mornings is unbelievable and all down the great staff. We get up dates throughout and even a parents evening to talk about progress and what to do next. If I could give more stars I would cos had it not been for staff here my little boy would still be behind. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such wonderful feedback, your son has done amazing on his journey and we are so so proud of him! Thank you
We are so happy we chose little ladybirds for our little boy to attend when I went back to work. He is absolutely thriving and has come on so much since he started. The staff pay attention to his home routine and have always followed this. On drop offs and pick ups the staff are warm and welcoming, and always give an update on how the days been. I love the app they use which keeps us updated in the days with things like food, drink, naps, and nappy changes as well as pictures and a write up of what he's been upto in the day, this really gives me peace of mind when I'm at work. I cannot recommend this nursery enough for little ones.
Thank you for this wonderful review, we really value our families feedback and it is wonderful to hear how happy you are and your child here at Little Ladybirds.
They always answer any questions you have throughout the day while your child's there which I think is great. The staff are really friendly and I feel my little girl is very safe with them looking after her. my little girl really enjoys going to nursery there , I would highly recommend little ladybirds as a nursery to parents.
This is such a lovely review to read, here at Little Ladybirds out partnership with our families is such a valuable thing and we pride ourselves in ensuring the whole family is happy within the setting.

My son absolutely loves going to Little Ladybirds Nursery. I can't praise the staff enough, they are amazing and so genuinely caring, my son adores them all. The staff regularly update you and are so responsive if you ever need to contact them throughout the day. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough and wouldn't want my baby going anywhere else. Thanks Little Ladybirds for being the best!
Thank you for taking the time to write a review for us and share your experience, we really appreciate such a lovely review. It is wonderful to hear how happy the whole family are with Little Ladybirds.
The staff at little ladybirds have made the transition to my little one starting nursery the most supportive and positive experience it could possibly be. They are willing to accommodate for the individual needs of each child who starts and go above and beyond in terms of ensuring they are building trusting relationships with the babies. Nothing is too much trouble.
Thank you for leaving us a review, it is lovely to get this feedback from our families.
The nursery as an overall is brilliant. The staff are friendly and efficient. I wouldn't leave my little girl with anyone else whilst at work and Little Ladybirds put my mind at ease daily with regular updates and contact regarding my child. The nursery is always clean and the staff in the office are always ready to help.
This is so lovely to read and we really do appreciate all the feedback we get from our families. We are so incredibly lucky to have such wonderful children at Little Ladybirds and we are privileged to be on your journey within education for your family.
All the staff are very friendly and stay in regular contact throughout the day including pictures. They have been very supportive as we have been potty training ensuring this can carry on through her days at nursery. Would definitely recommend the nursery to others.
Thank you for this lovely review, it is so nice to hear from a parent's perspective how the nursery is doing. We are so happy you chose Little Ladybirds to be a part of your child's journey.
Little Ladybirds have been brilliant since our little girl started nursery in January - staff did so much to put both her and us at ease during the transition. She had taster sessions and we were please by their open door approach for parents.
We get daily updates, and all her activity (including changes and food eaten) are recorded to give us peace of mind. She's settled in beautifully and now can't wait to go to nursery on a morning and we've already noticed how much she's developing, particularly with her communication skills.
Office staff are super helpful navigating nursery funding etc and the spaces are so well thought out.
Would 100% recommend Little Ladybirds to any parent!
Thank you for this wonderful review, we really appreciate the feedback from our families. Thank you for choosing Little Ladybirds to share your daughter's early years journey.
Firstly the staff are absolutely fantastic. There is always a warm welcome at the door and I think the staff are a testament to how quickly our child settled in. The reports we get when attending nursery make my day to be honest and it's really nice seeing what they are getting up to. The app is also extremely helpful to know what's being eaten etc. I also feel like our child's speech has come on a lot from the interaction at the nursery too. Overall it has been a very positive experience for me personally in what is quite a daunting process of leaving your child. The staff are so helpful even down to helping setting up payments and just taking the stress out of everything. I would highly recommend this nursery to people.
Thank you so much for this amazing review, I am so pleased you have chosen Little Ladybirds to help your child on their early years journey. We love to hear from our families and hear all about your experiences. Thank you.
