Review from Laura R (Mother of Child) published on 15 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with our experience at Little Dragons. From the very first day, we were welcomed into a warm, friendly, and incredibly accommodating environment that instantly put us at ease, going above and beyond to make every child-and parent-feel valued, supported, and part of a special community. The staff are truly exceptional and thei professionalism, kindness, and genuine passion for early years education shine through in everything they do. They take the time to understand each child's unique personality and needs, creating a nurturing space where children feel safe, confident, and excited to learn.

Our 4-year-old has absolutely flourished here, growing in confidence, curiosity, and independence. The balance of structured activities and imaginative free play is perfect, and the variety of activities is both enriching and fun. We especially appreciate their efforts to help child develop healthy routines and habits to support physical and emotional regulation.

Overall Experience

My daughter has now gone to this nursery for a month. She settled in very fast, which was a great relief for me when going back to work, and must be due to the staff being so kind. I love all the messy play she gets to do at the nursery. It's great for her development. I know that she will get to experience something new every day. And the food all sounds delicious, which it must be since she seems to eat the lot every single day. So far really happy. Thank you very much!

Reply from Leah Hannon, Manager at Partou Little Dragons Day Nursery & Pre-school

Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Little Dragons for over a year, starting in toddlers and now in pre-school. She loves going and is always cheerful at pick up. The staff are great. They took a real interest in helping with her extreme picky eating and tried lots of different strategies. We've had no issues or complaints at all, would recommend the nursery to anyone and will be sending our youngest to the baby room in a few months.

Review from A B (Father of Child) published on 16 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We've had a wonderful experience with this nursery. The staff are genuinely caring and have a lovely manner with our son. From the very beginning, they've been incredibly attentive and supportive, helping him settle in and gradually building up from half days to full-time care.

One of the things we appreciate most is how well they've supported his routine. They've really worked with us to maintain the structure we set at home, which has helped him feel secure and thrive. He's become so much more social and confident with other children, and it's clear the nurturing environment has made a big difference.

We're so pleased with how well he's doing, and we truly believe it's thanks to the fantastic team at the nursery. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a safe, supportive, and engaging place for their child.

Overall Experience

Great nursery! Very clean setting, which is impressive with all the messy play they set up for the babies. All the staff are very friendly and interact very well with our child, even from early on after joining. The manager is super knowledgeable and helpful, and the nursery keeps us well updated with events, updates, etc. Nutrition is very important to us, and the rotating menu is always great, with our little one eating new foods all the time.

Overall Experience

My son started at Little Dragons in January and absolutely loves going. He gets involved in all of the fantastic activities that they offer, such as singing and signing. He eats and drinks incredibly well whilst he's there. I love hearing about what he gets up to on his day there. The staff are all amazing, so friendly and I know my son is in good hands whilst attending nursery. The nursery is well equipped, the outside playground is brilliant, with climbing frames, slides, mud kitchen and other toys. The nursery is always clean and my son always comes home clean, dry and happy.

Review from M P (Mother of Child) published on 10 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our kid has attended since April 2022, and we have had a fantastic experience in the different development stages our kid has experienced. Our kid loved attending, and we feel he is in a safe and caring space that has helped to develop his creativity and mental health with activities such as yoga and wellbeing. They have been supportive in reaching milestones such as potty training. The team has also supported us during difficult situations at home; management and staff have helped us navigate hard times and have been attentive to ensure our child is coping with disruptions at home.

Overall Experience

My daughter loves Partou Little Dragons Day Nursery and Pre-school. She cried on day 1 drop off but has never cried on subsequent drop offs. She is happy every day when my wife or I go and pick her up, that is the most important thing to us. The nursery have given us some good advice on any issues she has had. She hasn't had many issues at all though as of yet touch wood! I would recommend Little Dragons highly. She is developing really well thanks to the nursery and always seems to love spending time there.

Overall Experience
We've had two children attend from babies. Both have had the most amazing experiences, tailored to their personalities and interests - from drumming/ paint sensory play to phonics fun!
The Nursery Manager and the team work tirelessly to provide a caring safe environment where the kids can have fun, explore and learn. Outdoor time is high on their agenda, as is singing and dancing!
They have been so accommodating with odd work patterns and always available for a chat on the phone.

We couldn't ask for better, we'll genuinely miss them when we start school!

The Little Dragons team have been fantastically supportive of our family. The team is very longstanding and seem happy, which creates a nice atmosphere and good relationships.
Our two children have loved their time at nursery and gained confidence and skills to start school.

During bumpy times, the nursery managers and key workers have been absolute rocks, providing advice and support, and being very positive.

I absolutely love this nursery! My little one looks forward to going everytime we pull up. She yells friends when we get there and runs right up to the door. She loves the food and is always happy to see the nursery teachers everyday. She gives them the biggest hugs. I'm just happy she is happy and looks forward to going there.

Overall Experience
Highly recommended! Little Dragons Day Nursery & Pre-school has gone above and beyond to care for our two children and to support us as a family.

The friendly and consistent staff team offer children a warm and stimulating environment. Take potty training troubles, behaviour challenges or whatever a toddler can throw at you completely in their stride. Our children came home happy, tired and well fed. We really appreciate all the extra weeks and parent initiations, which give a great insight into life at the nursery.

We have been part of Little Dragons since 2019 and now have our second child there. We are consistently pleased with how caring and qualified all the staff are. Food is of a high standard and the facilities are clean and perfectly suited to each age group. The whole team work together so well ensuring the best for children in their care. The range of activities is engaging and educational. Children are prepared and ready for school thanks to a fantastic pre-school team. Extra learning is offered from external providers for song and sign, wellbeing and yoga. We couldn’t be happier with the nursery and recommend it to anyone we know.

My 2 children attend Little Dragons Nursery. We’ve just come home from a gorgeous Mother's Day stay and play and afternoon tea. Little Dragons are forever doing parties and activities not only for the children but for parents to come along too! We’ve had a lovely time this afternoon with it not being a “normal” nursery day my children have yet again had a great time!

Thank you so much to all the amazing team for all you do.

Overall Experience

Little Dragons has by far exceeded all my nursery expectations - my two boys both absolutely love going there and I know how well they are looked after which gives me total peace of mind when they are there. They have a very low staff turnover which has been fantastic for my boys. All the staff know all the children and are so friendly which gives the nursery a lovely homely feel. I would particularly praise the staff in the babies room who have been so kind to my son who suffers from allergies and severe eczema. They have spent lots of time soothing him and massaging cream into his sore skin a few times a day. 5 stars.
