Little Green Rascals Tadcaster Road is housed within a stunning three-storey red brick building. The nursery comprises of six thoughtfully designed rooms, which carefully follows the stages of early childhood development, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to reach their full learning potential, and is thoughtfully curated with age-appropriate resources that inspire and engage. The nursery offers exceptional care, enriched by unique learning opportunities for your child. One such experience is child-friendly cooking classes, helping to equip children with valuable skills and deeper knowledge of the cooking process.
In Wiggly Worms, the youngest babies spend their days immersed in sensory activities, fostering learning and exploration. Building strong relationships is a key focus at this stage, and the caring staff are there to assist both you and your baby in settling into this cosy and welcoming environment.
In Dancing Dragonflies, children are encouraged to develop independence and curiosity. They can climb the indoor climbing frame, engage in free play and tackle puzzles that sharpen their mathematical skills.
In Cheeky Hens and Little Ladybirds, the team foster the development of expression, language and comprehension skills. Creative and imaginative skills flourish through daily play activities tailored to meet the individual learning needs and interests of each child. The team provide ample opportunities for revisiting activities to reinforce learning.
In Busy Bumblebees and Little Green Rascals, under the guidance of experienced Early Years Teacher, children aged three and above embark on a journey toward becoming independent learners who are eager and prepared for school.

She gets involved in lots of fabulous activities, loves to get messy and has a great enjoyment of the outdoor area. There is so much on offer to the children, it is such a great environment. We definitely recommend it to all.

This is a fantastic nursery which I would recommend to anyone considering childcare. My daughter was extremely attached to me and it was very difficult to leave her with anyone (it always involved a lot of tears). The care and attention she has had since she started about 8 months ago has been brilliant. Settling in took a bit of time but the staff were great and really took time to get to know her. The staff are all fantastic and really care for the children. The daily updates are great and I think you know you've chosen the right place when the staff say things like "she just needed a few extra cuddles today" and when your child wants to be handed over to their key person in the morning. My daughter recently moved rooms and as she becomes very attached to individuals they were extremely mindful of the transition period - ensuring it was tailored for her (they did it gradually over a longer period of time letting her get used to new staff). The food is also fantastic (I just wish I could buy meals from there!). I have already recommended LGR to a number of friends looking at childcare options.
I'm particularly happy that there is a garden and lots of outside space.

The food is also really good quality; I know she is eating a varied diet there.
The staff in the baby room are very friendly and helpful.

My daughter absolutely loves attending Little Green Rascals. I have no problem leaving her in the morning as the team are fantastic and I know she'll be so well looked after. I pick her up with a big smile on her face in the afternoon and she's babbling away - probably trying to tell me all the fun things she's done! I love reading about what she has been doing during the day and having a chat with her key worker when I pick her up. Thanks to all of you for making my return to work so much easier!

Little Green Rascals is an amazing nursery, our little girl absolutely loves it, she has been going to the nursery since she was 10 months and is now fast approaching 2. The team at Little Green Rascals have helped her development significantly, from walking to talking. We have complete peace of mind leaving her at nursery and can't recommend it highly enough.

Our baby boy joined Wiggly Worms in September and we have been very impressed with everything about Little Green Rascals. We were invited in for a thorough pre meeting where we met staff and asked questions, safeguarding was high on the agenda which reassured us greatly. We were invited in on a Saturday to a special picnic where we could meet other parents and children could play together I was given a song book to sing songs at home that they sing at nursery. There is a weekly email for parents with nursery and community events coming up including Forest School days. We love his Key Worker, he is happy to see her every week. The comments she writes in his progress book help us too - especially when it comes to weaning; we didn't know he loved Oranges! The food always looks fab and the organic promise is taken seriously. Parents are encouraged to carry on the organic ethos at home by using organic veg box suppliers but it's not pushy. Our baby loves playing the black and white corner and snoozing in the sleep room. At first I thought parking might be an issue but it is fine - other parents are polite and I think having the parking attendant out in the car park on a morning is helpful. We have already recommended the nursery to our friends. Compared to other nurseries we look around Little Green Rascals was clean and professional.
My little girl started at the nursery last month and is loving it. She settled in right away. She has a diary which is filled out everyday so that we can read about what she has been up to.

My little girl started at the nursery last month and is loving it. She settled in right away. She has a diary which is filled out everyday so that we can read about what she has been up to. Every week there are new activities for her to get involved in. The staff all recognised us when we turned up from the start (which is quite impressive as she only attends two afternoons a week) and are all really caring and professional. The food menu is great and recipes are forwarded to us so we can try them out at home. I was apprehensive at the thought of leaving her at nursery when I went back to work but I have full confidence and couldn't be happier with LGR.
Our daughter loves coming to this nursery. The staff are extremely approachable and always give feed back at the end of the day to parents.

Our daughter loves coming to this nursery. The staff are extremely approachable and always give feed back at the end of the day to parents. It is a very busy nursery with lots of stimulating activities on offer for the children to interact with. The great emphasis on the outdoors and the wonderful food is a real plus! We would recommend this nursery to other parents and carers.

I found it very hard starting back to work to work with other children and leaving someone else to take care of mine, but Little Green Rascals has worked hard to ensure it has been a positive experience and smooth journey. My child has benefited hugely from the key worker system and they have bonded with many of the lovely staff, everyone seems genuinely pleased to see them in the morning. If upset when I leave they always phone me later to let me know how they are doing. The food is excellent and they will cater without any fuss or trouble to your little ones needs. They encourage parents to get involved with the nursery, finding out what your child has been up to and keep a lovely record of their journey! They do so many activities and you can see they learn so much. Being outdoors is really encouraged and they have lots of animals too... Hopefully we're going to be taking hamster home on holiday one weekend!
My little boy has been at Little Green Rascals for about 9 months and he loves it here. He eats far better than I do, the rooms are imaginatively decorated and well equipped, the staff are friendly and caring, and for a nursery in a city, the outdoor space is fabulous. Overall I am very pleased...

My son has a number of food allergies and the staff have been fantastic in ensuring he still has healthy but safe meals. The food is brilliant and we regularly cook some of the recipes from the Little Green Rascal's chef, which are emailed to parents each week.

Little Green Rascals is a fabulous nursery. Our daughter started nursery when she was 11 months old and is incredibly happy there. The staff are all fantastic and so caring, always taking the time to get to know your child and ensuring that their early learning experiences are fun and rewarding. The outside space is wonderful and enhanced by the commitment to forest schools. There are parent forums on a regular basis where you can offer support or raise any issues. We couldn't be happier with the nursery and the knowledge that our daughter is in a very safe and caring environment.
After looking around in few nurseries we walk into Little Green Rascals, me and my husband fell in love with the place.

After looking around in few nurseries we walk into Little Green Rascals, me and my husband fell in love with the place. Very clean and a gorgeous environment for the little ones to have fun as they learn. My little one started in the 'Wiggly Worm' room and she was well loved and cared by the staff in a superb and professional manner. After a year she was ready to move on to the next room. The staff are great and I know my girl is happy and enjoys her days at the Little Green Rascals. We love the outside space the nursery has and the animals so children can get involved. Will recommend it to anyone but I will advise to always go and look around to get the feeling.
