Most parents who use Little Acorns Childcare will say they are more like a family, which sets them apart from bigger nurseries in the area.
They are based within a vibrant multicultural Christian Pentecostal Church, however they are fully inclusive and enjoy celebrating all cultures, backgrounds and ethnicities, which means they welcome every child irrespective of religion, background, language and ability.
The long-standing team of highly qualified and motivated staff work tirelessly to promote the wellbeing and development of every child in their care, based on individual needs and interests.
Their holistic approach means they support the child and their family by whatever means needed, including their well-used baby bank.
The nursery received the amazing rating of 'Outstanding' from Ofsted in August 2021 and this was given with extremely high praise, with no future recommendations identified by the inspector. The manager and her dedicated team were thrilled that they were able to celebrate just how amazing the nursery is and the acknowledgement from Ofsted was reassuring.
The staff are highly motivated and have a genuine passion for supporting all children to achieve the best outcomes during their early years and this is reflected in the working relationships formed between staff and families.
So, if you are looking for a setting which has a real sense of family, is nurturing and child-led, with an outstanding reputation, Little Acorns is the place to be. Spaces are very limited so get booked in quick to avoid disappointment. The team would love to show you round, so get in touch today!

Staffed by an incredible bunch of people. My son always comes home saying how amazing his day has been. They interact with each child on a personal level, taking a keen interest to each individual's wants and needs, ultimately preparing them for that dreaded school transition. I can't thank them enough for their time and attention that they have provided, and the support that they have given my son will always be appreciated.
Would wholeheartedly recommend Little Acorns!

when my daughter started little accorns in september 2024, she was about 12-18months behind with her speech. everyone at little accorns helped my daughter massively with her speech and i cant thank you enough for everything you have done for her. when she moved up to hedgehogs, she transitioned really well and loved going to school. even when we drove past in the car she would always say bye bye.

My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her time spent at Little Acorns. She has grown in confidence since starting and now runs through the door each morning. There is always plenty of activities during each session which has kept my daughter engaged and learning new skills, these are often adapted to suit the child for example my little girl loves to bake so they specifically set up an activity to bake bread with her which she thoroughly enjoyed. Great use of the outdoor space available, ensuring outside play is exciting and inviting. Good communication through tapestry but also very approachable staff and manager.
We are so sad to be leaving but having had both my children attend this nursery over the last 4 years I will forever be recommending! Thank you for giving them so much love, care and fun!! X

I feel like the nursery went downhill when the manager left. My children weren't properly looked after and simple basic needs weren't met even after multiple times of asking. Staff were unprofessional and put their opinions rather than professional opinions first.

Both of my children have loved Little Acorns and have progressed so much whilst there. The staff are friendly, caring and great at supporting learning, confidence and independence. How happy the children are to see them at each session speaks volumes and that is a great comfort to any parent, especially with children who haven't always coped well with separation or have additional needs. The feedback at the end of each session is hugely helpful and appreciated and if I ever have a query or concern I can always speak to a member of staff with ease. The monthly round-ups are lovely and informative too, and give us a real insight into how our children are at nursery. We have needed additional support with other healthcare professionals coming into the nursery or asking for reports from the nursery and they have always been very accommodating and supportive of this. They are great with SEN. We are forever grateful to Little Acorns for being so nurturing and inclusive. Sad to be leaving!

I love receiving updates about his progress and seeing how proud he is of the activities he's done.

My daughter joined the nursery September 2022 and she has airways been so shy around other children and new adults. She would get a little unsettled when leaving me but all the staff made her feel so comfortable that now she walks straight in when the doors are opened. She loves going to nursery now and looks forward to it each morning thanks to the friendly and welcoming staff who have made her feel happy to be there. I'm glad I chose to send her to this nursery because they take pride in their jobs and look after the children so well and make sure they have a safe area for them to play and learn in. The staff have great communication and let all the parents know about things happening and give them regular updates on how their child is doing
