Review from Gemma T (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Little Ladybirds is somewhere that our son looks forward to going to every day. He has a smile on his face everytime we arrive and it's lovely to see him run towards the staff as soon as we walk through the door. There is a genuine caring atmosphere for all the children and I'm always safe in the knowledge that he is well cared for on a daily basis. He is clearly well stimulated throughout the day and sleeps soundly every night after a busy day at nursery. The staff keep us well informed of his daily activities and progress and he's always fed nutritious meals. Leaving your child in the care of others is something that you never take lightly, we are over the moon that in Little Ladybirds we have found a place that has filled us full of confidence and a nursery where our son will thrive.

I am happy to recommend Little Ladybirds. My child always looks forward to going, clearly enjoys the food and taking part in the activities.

The staff are friendly and helpful, who clearly care a great deal for the children. The administration support is also very efficient.

Review from Sarah M (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended Ladybirds since he was 6 months old, he will soon be 3. He looks forward to going and will even ask to go when he is not due to. All the staff are very friendly and approachable and make me and him feel welcome on a morning when I drop him off. He is able to participate in a range of activities both indoors and outdoors. He really likes the outdoor area where he plays in the mud kitchen. At the end of the day, staff ensure that they provide me with a detailed description of what he has done that day which includes what he has eaten, his nap times and nappie changes.

Overall Experience
A lovely friendly nursery. My little boy loves coming here, he is happy and the staff are great with him.
He has additional needs, which are catered for with no problems at all.

I would recommend Little Ladybirds to other parents.

Review from C (Mother of Child) published on 11 July 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We currently have one child in the nursery but our eldest went there too. Both joined aged just under 6 months and have been very happy there, from the very first day. Staff in each room are competent and very friendly and know how to build strong relationships with children. I can go to work knowing that my child is safe, well looked-after and happy, some days, she doesn't even want to leave!

Review from Faye (Mother of Child) published on 1 June 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended Little Ladybirds since January 2016 and it has been a truly great experience for him. In the beginning he was extremely upset to be left at nursery but the girls in the baby room were great with him. Now he gets excited when we tell him he's going to nursery on a morning! The activities he does whilst he's in nursery are good and he eats a nice variety of foods whilst he's there. Their facilities are good and I always think it looks very clean. I recommend Little Ladybirds to my friends, as I believe it's helped my son really come on and become a sociable and confident little toddler.

Review from Tracy (Mother of Child) published on 1 June 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter is 4.5 years old and attended this nursery since she was 10 months old. She has built strong friendships with the children and staff at the nursery. The staff are very welcoming and have made my daughter feel very welcome, she is already starting to say everyone will miss me when I go to big school. I would strongly recommend the nursery as they have encouraged her and developed her key skills profoundly.

Review from Katherine A (Mother of Child) published on 2 November 2015 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been in and out of several settings in his three years of life and at little ladybirds he has settled in so well. They have been very supportive when working with me in overcoming some behavioural issues, sorting him an action plan to help him understand his behaviour and a reward system to encourage good behaviour. I think the inclusion of french lessons is a great idea and my son loves learning new words and has been practicing his numbers at home. He thoroughly enjoys playing outside and gets to go out two or three times a day, even in wet weather they go out for short periods for a bit of fresh air and to run off steam. The garden is in the process of getting a make over but it is a nice large open space for them to explore with plants and shrubs surrounding the garden. The pre school room is well laid out with lots of areas to explore, from dressing up and home corner, to messy play, science and maths exploration of materials, magnets natural objects etc, small world, construction area, itc area with interactive white board. And much much more.
