  • Little Wellies Day Nursery Wrose, Bradford
Little Wellies in Wrose is a family owned and run nursery. They pride themselves on their home from home feel and highly trained caring staff team.

They believe that children learn best through play and they are fully involved in taking care of their surroundings. You won't see many plastic toys in their nursery, as what can be more fun than playing with real cups and saucers and food.

They are different to other nurseries in their area and their children thrive.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Great nursery and great care. My little boy is so happy in the older room and has come on leaps and bounds. His writing, for a 3-year-old, is amazing and it’s all down to nursery. Healthy food options and good development activities at nursery. The staff are lovely and have genuine care for the children.
My
only critique is there are little photos and information shared on how their day is. A lot of nurseries have apps where you can receive images of your child throughout the day. It would be lovely to get more images and more information about my little boy throughout the day of what he’s been doing and photos of activities he’s been participating in.

I have passed on your feedback to the manager. We decided against a nursery app, as this is very time-consuming for the team and we would rather spend our time caring for, playing with and teaching…read more

Little Wellies Day Nursery Wrose is, without a doubt, the best nursery I’ve sent any of my children to. My daughter loves going and loves all the staff! She is very advanced for her age and I put it down to nursery. All the staff are lovely, including the management team. I cannot recommend Little Wellies
enough! I’ll be sad when my daughter leaves here.

Absolutely amazing nursery - can’t fault it - staff are kind and caring - always keep you up to date with what’s happening! My little girl has come on leaps and bounds since starting here, and I recommend Little Wellies Wrose to everyone! The facilities are amazing, and my child constantly asks for
the toys and learning equipment to be bought for our home too. All staff seem to genuinely care about your child and their welfare and learning/ development etc, it’s such a joyful, happy place that my daughter loves! My other daughter will be starting in January, and I just know she will absolutely love it and be taken care of!

My child has been attending Little Wellies for 8 months now. Thankfully he had no issues settling in, this is hugely down to the warm, welcoming and nurturing staff. He’s always in his spare clothes as he’s getting messy and stuck in with the amazing activities that are planned. He also eats so well
at nursery, even has two portions. The management team are very approachable and resolve any queries or concerns promptly. It’s so reassuring knowing your child is happy, learning, has a full stomach and being cared for to the highest standard. Thank you!

This nursery is the 5 star example of child centred. My child has been in every room and has flourished. Staff are nurturing and attuned, provide tons of different activities and experiences and take the children on frequent outings. Any concerns or queries are addressed in a compassionate and open

Fantastic nursery, my niece and nephew have both attended this nursery, my niece is currently still there, and they both absolutely love it, they have really come on leaps and bounds. They both really enjoyed going, they love the staff and have made so many friends, it's like from home to home. Absolutely
love the meals, and they have opened their palette to various food types, and always waiting for a second helping. 10 out of 10.

My son attends and absolutely loves his time there. This is matched by his evident learning progression that the nursery is key to developing. We have always had a great relationship with the nursery and its staff and this has helped us feel assured that our son is happy and safe whilst there. Furthermore,
the nursery has always listened and been very accommodating with our needs as a family. Thank you for all your hard work Little Wellies!

My son was at a previous nursery since he was 9 months. He is 2 now, I believed it was right for him to start somewhere else. A few of my friends’ children go here and I’ve heard nothing but great things. My son started here the beginning of September, he has honestly flourished, my son really does
love it once he’s there, and a few times he’s not wanted to come home! The food is amazing too, it’s not just cereal for breakfast but fruit which my son prefers! The staff are so friendly and lovely. Two members of staff in particular are so lovely and also extremely professional! Thank you so much guys.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy started at Little Wellies Day Nursery two months ago in the baby room. As a first time mum this was my biggest worry as he’d spent every day with me and struggled and resisted going to people he’d never met but that was not the case at Little Wellies, my little boy settled in straight
away and I have never left him crying or walked into him crying. He has come on so much in two months and I thank the girls that look after him for that as they are always interacting with the babies. They go on fun trips out. Speaking on the full nursery, the environment is always so lovely, to walk into children so happy and content because that’s all we want for our children. I couldn’t of imagined sending my little boy anywhere else and I am so glad we decided on Little Wellies. Management of the nursery are so helpful too! I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough! There’s nothing better than knowing your child is safe, well, happy, fed and content.

My little one initially struggled to settle but all the nursery staff made me feel at ease and I was allowed to call and check on her without it feeling like I was a burden. Any parent will know that when they leave their child upset they need that reassurance that all is ok or else you can't function
in your job as their upset is at the forefront of your mind. My daughter settled eventually but still has the odd day, but the staff know exactly how to be with her and she adores all of them. The nursery is spoken about a lot in our house as she is extremely happy there. Management are easily approachable, friendly and supportive. Activities are always well thought about and my little one gets excited to do something new. She has many friends and attending Little Wellies has bought out her confidence, speech, manners and how to interact well with others.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My children have both attended Little Wellies and both have not only enjoyed it but have thrived and developed whilst being there. They encourage a hands approach to learning through exploration and messy play within an informal setting.
The staff are approachable and honest, giving feedback and sharing
best practices. They are caring and both of my children feel very at home at the nursery, there is a warm family feeling throughout.
Staff provide frequent updates and set achievable and challenging goals to track progress, we have found this works well and gives clarity on progress and key improvement areas.
The facilities are great and encourage a playful and creative learning experience. My boy always comes home with a full belly and tired from a busy day!
The biggest compliment I can give them is we will be extremely sad when our boy leaves to go to school, Little Wellies are excellent at what they do and their values are consistent across the whole team. Thank you for everything.

Outstanding nursery setting!
The staff have been great with my little boy from settling in sessions when he first started to now moving rooms. He enjoys telling me about the exciting things he has done throughout the day from going on trips to the local pet shop and park to singing and dancing with
his friends. The Manager is great and always try’s to fit him in for extra sessions when we need them and is always happy to help with guidance or questions that we have.
As parents it is such a big decision on where to take your child and I wholeheartedly believe that I made the best decision for my son and believe that he thrives being around his peers in a safe environment. One very happy boy and two very happy parents!

Little Wellies Day Nursery is very welcoming, the staff are always at hand to answer any questions or concerns. All the children appear happy and confident, supported to be so by the staff team.
There is a fantastic range of activities to learn from, expanding children's skills and confidence building.

Both of our children have gone to Little Wellies and I have nothing but positive things to say about this nursery! Every member of staff feels like family. They keep us as parents fully involved in every aspect of care. If there are any concerns they will get in touch straight away. They also hold regular
meetings and coffee mornings so we can see all the work our children have been doing. They teach the children how to be kind and caring individuals and get them school-ready for when they leave. I would recommend this nursery to everyone. We will be very sad to be leaving come September!

Little Wellies Day Nursery is a lovely, family run nursery that we knew was right for our children from our first visit 3.5 years ago. Our son settled nicely and now our daughter loves it too. The staff are friendly and always helpful, they tell us everything we need to know at pick up time and have
regular social mornings/evenings where we can go and catch up.
There always seems to be lots going on for the kids to do, and they always come home telling us excitedly about their day! We wouldn't consider going anywhere else and I always recommend Little Wellies when speaking to other parents regarding childcare!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Little Wellies Day Nursery Wrose is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.891 for Little Wellies Day Nursery Wrose is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 276 Ratings = 4.891
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Wellies Day Nursery Wrose is based on 23 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 53 number of registered child places is 10.6, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
