We receive a detailed handover when we collect him and we can track his activities and photos on the app which is complete peace of mind!
The daily activities and play are well structured and the staff provide a warm and nurturing environment.
Thank you for your lovely review, we love that your little man likes our extra activities.
The environment is clean, safe and well planned. The transitions between rooms have been really smooth. Our eldest started in babies and is now in pre-school. He really loves the staff! He eats well and enjoys the varied menu they receive. He has really enjoyed the range of extras offered, library bus, sign and sing, french with Madame Vardy, to name a few!
Our youngest is in babies, Little Ladybirds staff mirror our routines etc. It is definitely a home from home!
The communication between nursery and home is brilliant. Staff make time to speak to parents during drop off and collection, the parent app and Facebook page are great.
Thank you.
Thank you so much for your lovely review, it's a pleasure to have both of your boys with us.
Our little girl has come on leaps and bounds spending times here doing things like sing and sign, playing with the other children and having a key worker.
We use the app to see what she’s been up to which they update regularly with things like activities done, what and how much food milk and sleep she has had and any nappy changes (the app is a brilliant tool).
Hello David. Wow, what can we say about that review, other than thank you!
My son has been going to this nursery since he was 11 months old. We visited a few nurseries when the time came for me to go back to work and this was by far the best - the staff are so friendly! He loves the library bus as he gets to pick his own book and he loves joining in with sign, song and sign. I love the app as I can see what he’s been doing during the day and can see any observations that staff have done with him. He loves going and we have recently decided to keep him there until he starts school. I would recommend this nursery to anyone!
Hello Sophie. We would like to thank you for this lovely review; it means a lot.
Fantastic nursery and staff. Both my children love going to nursery. Staff are very friendly and approachable. Great activities going on in all rooms.
Thanks for your lovely review Leanne, we're delighted you are so happy with Little Ladybirds.
My little boy absolutely loves coming to this nursery, all the staff are excellent, I couldn’t recommend it enough it’s brilliant!
Thank you for responding so quickly for our request for more reviews Jessica, we appreciate your comments and all the 5 out of 5's!
Since attending Little Ladybirds Nursery, our 10-month-old daughter has developed leaps and bounds and we believe this largely is down to the learning and education she gets at the nursery.
Thank you for your lovely review, it's been fun starting this learning journey with your daughter.
I've worked on the same estate as Little Ladybirds for almost three years now, with my wife joining me here in August. When she joined my company, we wanted to move our son's childcare nearby so that our routine was made easier. Little Ladybirds was the closest one that we could find and their Ofsted rating was amazing. We went along for a walk-around with the staff there and this was followed with playdates for our son. All of this went well and he started in mid-August 2019. Since then, he's grown to love his nursery and you can see the excitement on his face when we arrive. All of the care-givers are enthusiastic and happy, and our son loves going to them on a morning; he doesn't even look back! The app that they use is also great as it means we can see what he's been up to! We believe that this is one of the best nurseries around!
Thank you for leaving such a wonderful review Jordan, we really appreciate it.
Staff are aware of his ways of learning and are able to encourage him to try new things, encouraging development and making learning fun.
Staff are so friendly and know my son to the fine details.
Cannot recommend Little Ladybirds enough.
My son has been attended Little Ladybirds since he was 11 months old. The staff are all so friendly in every single room and they are fantastic. My son thoroughly enjoys going to nursery and I know he is in the best care! The facilities are brilliant and my son really enjoys football practice on Monday’s with the coach. The manager and staff are also brilliant if you have any queries or concerns. I will be keeping my son in Little Ladybirds until he is 5 as I cannot fault anything and the nursery is rated ‘outstanding’.
Little Ladybirds is a fantastic nursery. Our first child attended from eight months old to nearly four years and our second child has recently started. The staff are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and professional. They provide brilliant care as well as creative learning opportunities for children of all ages. I wouldn't consider using any other childcare provider as I trust the staff at Little Ladybirds to provide the best care.
Thank you for your lovely review, Sarah.
His key worker has been brilliant and is one of the reasons my son looks forward to going each week.
All staff are very friendly, helpful and professional.
I would recommend this nursery to all of my friends.
Thank you for your lovely comments.
Brilliant nursery for my little boy. He loves his time here and always tells us he's had a fun day! The staff are all great which helps knowing that he's in a caring, fun and safe environment whilst we are at work. We also love the parent's app where we see photos of what he's been up to on his nursery days!
Thank you for leaving such a nice review.
Great nursery, it was 4 years ago when my son left and it still is today for my daughter. Many of the staff are still there which speaks volumes about the family feel of the nursery. Staff are lovely, attentive, patient and always smiling!! Well done Ladybirds.
Thank you for your kind review.
We cannot praise the staff and management at Little Ladybirds enough. We have two children who attend nursery and have done so since they were six months old. Not only have we noticed how much they have developed and flourished during their time at nursery but friends, relatives and even strangers comment on it too. The ambience and ethos of the nursery reflects the values we want to instil in our children and the nursery-home relationship has always been very positive and open. Our children return from nursery happy, thriving and well cared for and there is nowhere else I would want to send them.
Thank you for a lovely review. It's lovely to have both children at the same time.
Our little girl started at Little Ladybirds when she was 17 months old and before visiting any nurseries we were worried about how she’d cope because up until that point she had never been in a childcare setting. As soon as we visited Little Ladybirds we knew we would have no worries at all. Every member of staff we've met has been wonderful and fantastic at their job. The app they use to track your child’s events is brilliant and I love being able to check for a daily update with photos in the afternoon, it really helps you to trust that your baby is being looked after well. Thank you Little Ladybirds!
Thank you for your lovely comments.
Both children have been attending little ladybirds since they were 10 months old. They absolutely love it. It's going to be a sad day when they leave ready for school later this year.
Thank you for your lovely comments.
My little boy has settled well - the staff are so lovely and treat the children like they were their own family. They always have time to chat to you at drop off or pick up. A lovely mix of friendly and relaxed but professional and proactive.
Thank you for your lovely comments.
Outstanding nursery and the staff are amazing. My little boy took a while to settle but the staff were so good at helping him. They put my mind at ease when leaving him or calling to check on him. He now loves it and talks about everyone and his day when he finishes.
Thank you for your lovely comments.
My son has been going here for a year. The staff are an amazing group of people, kind compassionate and friendly. Staff are always going the extra mile for the children and I feel very lucky that my son is getting the personalised care he does.
Thank you for your lovely comments.
