Review from Anna M (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son joined this nursery when he was four years old, after attending a different one. From day one, we could feel the difference. The nursery has exceeded all our expectations. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly, which made the settling-in process incredibly smooth both for our son and for
us as parents. He felt comfortable right away, and we saw how happy he was to go every morning.
I always feel at peace knowing he's in a warm, safe, and caring environment. He's excited to see his teachers and friends every day, and that speaks volumes about the atmosphere and relationships nurtured here.
A special thank you to the nursery manager for her quick responses to any of our questions and for always being so approachable and kind. We are also very grateful to all wonderful teachers , especially two other staff members for their dedication, kindness, and genuine love for the children. They go above and beyond to support each child's development and and make learning fun and engaging.

Great Nursery with Caring Staff !
We've been really happy with our son's experience at this nursery. The staff are warm, friendly, and genuinely care about the children. Our son has settled in well and is always excited to go in the mornings. We've seen great progress in his development, both socially
and in terms of early learning.
The communication with parents is generally good, and the daily updates are really appreciated. The setting is clean, with a nice variety of activities that keep the children engaged.
One area that could be improved is the nursery's app - it's not updated as frequently as we'd like, and the photos they share are often unclear or low quality. A bit more consistency and clearer visuals would really help parents feel more connected to their child's day.The bookshelf area for signing in and out could be better organized - having a clear list to put names and pens readily available would make the process smoother for parents.
We definitely recommend this nursery

Our daughter loved attending Little Muffins so much that she didn't want to come home at the end of the day. She flourished in a short amount of time. Unfortunately our daughter wasn't able to stay as we moved away, but I would highly recommend the nursery. The staff was attentive to her wellbeing and
communicated effectively with us. I will miss the nursery and staff. Thank you for everything

We have had a great experience with Little Muffins. Our 1.5year old daughter loves her teachers and we can tell that the teachers care gratefully for our daughter. She is very well looked after we are impressed by everything she has learnt from nursery including always using 'please' and 'thank you'.
She comes home with new songs and actions. The management team at Little Muffins is responsive and are also actively involved in the day to day care of the children. We would highly recommend our nursery.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our daughter went to Little Muffins Nursery from May 2024- February 2025. She started at 1 year. We left little muffins as we are relocating away from London.
She settled in well with the support of the teachers in her room. Although during her time there were several management changes the teachers
in her room were consistent. Her key worker and other staff were attentive, kind, supportive and helped her develop. They got to know her well and knew her routine. During pick up/drop off they were always friendly, and chatty and spoke about her day. The food offered was good and varied. We liked that they went out into the garden often. Of the nurseries in the local area, it was one of the better gardens. The opening hours suited us as we are NHS workers and needed early drop off at 7.30.
To improve the nursery- communication via the app was not always consistent and initially, there were lots of photos of the app but then this was reduced. We enjoyed seeing the photos of our daughter.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending Little Muffins Nursery since he was 2 years old, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the incredible care and support he has received during his time there. When my son first started at Little Muffins Nursery, he was facing challenges with his speech development.
As a parent, it was a source of concern for me, but the staff at Little Muffins Nursery immediately put me at ease. They took the time to understand my son's needs and implemented personalised strategies to support his speech development journey. The dedication and expertise of the staff at Little Muffins Nursery are truly remarkable. They created a nurturing environment where my son felt safe, supported, and encouraged to communicate at his own pace. I cannot recommend Little Muffins Nursery highly enough to parents seeking a nurturing and supportive environment for their child.

My baby son goes to this nursery since he was a 9 months baby, he loved it then, and absolutely loves it now being already a 2.5 years toddler. The teachers and management are all very professional, warm and welcoming and I am glad seeing my son happy being in this place. The manager is always very
helpful in booking extra sessions, or changing attendance patterns.

My daughter has been nearly two years with Little Muffins Nursery.
It's a great environment and newly refurbished as well.
Lovely staff and she is very happy going there every day.
Also, what I love is the updates that we get throughout the day so we know what our children are up to.
I would
highly recommend it to other parents and carers.

Little Muffins Nursery is not only outstanding but such a positive environment. My daughter has been attending this nursery for about a year and a few months, not only does she love it here, she has truly blossomed within a year. I am amazed at how her vocabulary and social skills have come on faster
than I imagined. The staff are welcoming with so much heart and a caring mindset for the children. As for the management, she is really committed to providing a safe, fun place to be. I highly recommend this nursery for any parent who is unsure to send their child to nursery.

Seeing my daughters huge smile when we arrive at the nursery every day says enough about how happy she is to go there! That's the most important criteria to me; that my daughter is very well taken care of and learns so much there. The key person in charge of my daughter is amazing, as well as the manager
of the nursery and the other staff. You can see and feel the nursery is very well managed. Glad I chose this nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.625)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.625) out of 10 for Little Muffins Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.763 for Little Muffins Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 118 Ratings = 4.763
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.862 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Muffins Nursery is based on 10 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 58 number of registered child places is 11.6. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 11.6 = 0.862
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
