Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Charlton

The staff are caring and approachable. The team provide helpful updates and good photos on the app and they also give additional details at the end of the day. The Manager and Deputy Manager are dedicated, friendly and popular with the children. A special mention must also go to the nursery cook, who provides delicious, nutritionally-balanced meals for the children. We have moved away from the area now and were sorry to leave this nursery.

A very good, approachable, friendly nursery. The staff are very good with the children and very experienced. Their teaching methods for the toddlers is very educational and fun. My daughter has only been here a few months and I already see a big difference. My toddler and I are extremely happy with this nursery and would like to thank the staff.

We have had two children attend this nursery over the last six years and we have been consistently happy with their care. The manager has been there for over thirteen years and clearly has an enormous amount of love for her job, the children and her staff. She always makes our children feel very special. I feel confident they are safe in her care.

Our daughter has been attending this nursery for a year and during that time we have been very impressed. The staff are warm and professional and take the time to get to know each child. She learns every day from the many activities available to her and we receive personalised tips to help her development at home. I have been very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the early years education. Pastorally they are also very strong - supportive, responsive and there is a strong sense that they enjoy the children and have fun with them.

My son has been attending the nursery for two years now and the quality of the nursery has remained consistent over time. I have never had any reason to complain, on the rare occasion where there is any miscommunication the nursery manager works quickly to resolve issues. My son looks forward to going in every morning and tells me what an amazing day he has had every day he gets back. Fantastic manager, amazing staff. Really happy that I made the right choice by placing my son there. Thank you to the entire team for doing an outstanding job.

My daughter loves spending time at her nursery and is always thrilled after she comes home. She always tells me about the great food, the new nursery rhymes she has been learning, her making new friends and the new games she's learned. Also, since she's been going to the nursery, she started eating food that she usually didn't like and now enjoys, such as peas. The staff are all very friendly and caring and I can see that in the progress she has made at home, at the nursery and mostly everywhere she goes. I also receive daily updates on what she ate/did/played with/her drawings and paintings and how much she slept, which is a relief because I know she is safe and well. Her communication and socialisation skills have been improved massively. Thank you to all the Co-op Childcare Charlton staff!

My 18-month-old son has been attending Co-op Childcare since he was 12 months old. He absolutely loves the nursery and his key worker. Co-op clearly care so much about the babies' development and happiness and I'm so happy we picked this nursery over other options in the area. The app gets updated constantly with photos and updates which is great to read when you are at work. I'd recommend this nursery 100%.

Brilliant experience with the Co-op Childcare, from the baby room right up to reception wrap-around. Our daughter has learnt so much and we have been confident she is safe, cared for and having a great time at each stage of her care and learning. Thoroughly recommend.

The opening hours are one of the longest (07:30-18:30) in the area which is what attracted us to start with but so glad we joined.

Co-op Childcare have been very welcoming of our little one who moved nursery recently. Staff are very friendly and professional. Lots of outdoor space and our little one has made friends and settling in well. Thank you to Co-op Charlton and team.

Since my daughter started nursery in January she has felt settled and happy, I had no need to be nervous about her changing schools. The staff are all very friendly and take great care of the children. I receive daily updates on what they've been doing/learning/playing/eating/sleeping - which is a great reassurance while I am at work.

The Co-op Childcare Charlton Day Nursery is very friendly and approachable. My daughter enjoyed her time there as does my son. The senior carer is wonderful. They are very kind to the children and try to encourage them to bloom. They put the children first.

We are so pleased we moved our toddler to this nursery. It just seems like a really friendly environment and the staff are patient and great at communicating. We love seeing all of the updates on the app and it is clear that they have really got to know our son and his likes and dislikes. We love that he is outside so much exploring. He doesn’t yet speak but the size of his tummy at the end of the day also indicates that he enjoys the food he is given.

This nursery is amazing, the staff is really caring and have connected with my child in a way I wasn't expecting, my son looks forward to going to nursery, he was grown in confidence so much, and he is even writing his own name. He is learning about team work and kindness and they are reinforcing what we are teaching at home. I recommend this nursery to everybody

The manager and the Co-op Childcare Charlton Day Nursery have been a part of our family for the past seven years. Both of our boys started in the caterpillar's room and sadly, the time has come to say goodbye. I cannot recommend the nursery enough - not only do they provide fantastic childcare, but it is done so with compassion, attention and dedication. The manager always went the extra mile in providing extra support when needed (to both parents and children!). Both boys transitioned through different key workers and each and everyone played a vital part in their development - undoubtedly through the passionate and child-centred approach which the staff adopted. The nursery chef doubles as a magician as somehow, the children all eat (and enjoy) the food which she cooks - my son apparently will only eat the chef's carrots! Thank you to the manager and to the staff at Charlton Co-op - you've given both my boys the best start to their lives.

Kind and caring staff with plenty of activities during the day for the children to partake in. My child’s key worker has been wonderful, incredibly patient, calm and communicative with us. It is lovely to see what my child does during the day through the app. They have managed working through the pandemic very well and have set out well thought out procedures and protocol and are clearly well-organised thanks to the manager, who is also very hands-on with the children as well. I would happily recommend this nursery to parents in the area.

Co-op Childcare Charlton is first class. Very happy with the care and attention paid by the staff. The nursery have handled Covid measures really sensibly, and my daughter settled in so well even with the precautions in place. Great food, really thoughtful activities and helpful updates on the app.

This nursery has worked tirelessly to engage and keep safe my daughter during this strange year. Lovely staff who genuinely seem pleased to see the children each day. The progress she has made is phenomenal with the range of activities on offer. Very happy to know she is there during my working day and look forward to seeing what my next daughter (due soon) will get up to there when the time comes.

We could not be happier with Co-op Childcare Charlton. Our little boy is so happy to go there every day, he has made great friends in Butterflies and is thriving. The staff are amazing, always going out of their way to set up interesting activities for the children.

The whole atmosphere at the nursery is a happy one and all the children are very engaged and happy.
