Little Adventurers Nursery aims to offer the greatest possibility for discovery, exploration and adventure within a home from home environment that promotes positive relaxed learning. They believe in having adventures with children every day, giving children as many spontaneous learning opportunities as possible and learning in the moment.
As a family run nursery, they are enormously proud of their setting which offers care of the highest quality to childcare from three months to five years. The highly professional and caring staff team are led by a manager who is an early years teacher with over 30 years' experience in early years education.
All staff hold professional childcare qualifications, have enhanced DBS checks and all full-time staff have paediatric first aid certificates as well as safeguarding training.
The nursery has both CCTV and a key fob door entry system installed throughout its premises for high level security.
The nursery's optimum nutrition menu has been devised in consultation with their in-house health nutritionist and their own nursery cook prepares fresh meals onsite daily ensuring the menu meets the whole daily nutrient requirement for children under five.
Parents and carers are encouraged to visit and see for themselves all that the nursery has to offer; including the wonderful nursery garden with a veggie patch and purpose designed mud kitchen.

Little Adventurers really is the most wonderful place! I am so thrilled with the level of care provided for my son; he is nurtured, developed, loved and appreciated by the staff that care for him now and have done over the past 3 years. Staff allow and encourage children to be independent and provide a good foundation for them to begin school. The nursery provides extra activities such as football and having the duckling eggs in the preschool room which are both good experiences for the children to have. The food provided is excellent quality and is such a good and varied menu. I would highly recommend Little Adventurers Nursery.

Thank you on behalf of all the team Becky for taking the time out to write this review for us. Our nursery practitioner team are so encouraged by such wonderful reviews and it's wonderful that parents such as yourself who have been through all of our nursery rooms see the value of the many real experiences that we provide. Indeed it is our aim that little ones leave us independent, curious and with a love of learning to continue their education journey into primary school. We are looking forward to many adventurers this summer - especially our forest school which begins at the end of June.
Little Adventures is a great nursery and all the staff are friendly, professional and polite. They provide great care for the children helping them to learn, grow and discover the world around them. The extracurricular activities such as hatching ducklings, having a fish tank for tadpoles and a...
Little Adventures is a great nursery and all the staff are friendly, professional and polite. They provide great care for the children helping them to learn, grow and discover the world around them. The extracurricular activities such as hatching ducklings, having a fish tank for tadpoles and a visiting football coach all help the nursery go the extra mile for the children.
Thank you very much for taking the time to write this review for our nursery Simon, we really appreciate all feedback and share reviews with our staff team. We look forward to many more adventures with your little one throughout the summer!
I can honestly say I am over the moon with the manager and team. The ethos of the nursery is exactly what they do every day (an exciting adventure of discovery, exploration and investigation into the world around them). The nursery is a home from home, as our child has moved through the nursery he...
Thank you all.

What a beautiful testimonial Eilis - it is always a privilege when parents put their trust in us as early years teachers to care and nurture their child. Your little boy's experience of our nursery is exactly as we aim to do with all our children - to provide a rich early years childhood, full of adventures in a loving and friendly environment. We are so grateful for your heartwarming review and we hope your son will enjoy the next stage of his learning as he starts big school in September. However, before then we have a wonderful summer ahead full of learning and exciting extra-curricular activities such as our summer Forest School sessions with our pre-schoolers! Many thanks from us all.

I now have two children attending Little Adventures and am extremely happy with the childcare that I have selected. My children happily attend, knowing that they are going to have full fun days at a nursery which actively encourages learning and development through play. They adore the staff. Each member of the team knows every child and each child knows every staff members, which I consider to be a really nice thing and goes to illustrate the amount of time the staff spend with the children. My children enjoy the environment, food and attention that the nursery provides, which in turns provide me with comfort and confidence that they are in good hands.

Dear Anna, Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review for us. We are so proud of our staff team and I think your review highlights the wonderful relationship between children and staff and between staff and parents. Building supporting and loving relationships with our little ones is one of our top aims and it is really comforting to read reviews like this where parents comment on the warm environment. We look forward to sharing lots more adventurers with your little ones whilst they are with Little Adventurers! Many thanks once again.

This nursery was a wonderful choice for our son he has grown and matured in such a nice learning environment. The food is all prepared on site and the menu is created by a nutritionist to make sure he is receiving a balanced diet. The staff are all approachable and knowledgeable I like the mix of ages of the staff from young to old all sharing their experiences with the children. As my child has moved through the nursery each new room has been an adventure of different activities. I also like the fact the children go on regular outings into the surrounding area from parks to shops even to the local woods allowing the children to explore and learn.

It is lovely to read how your little one has enjoyed his learning journey at Little Adventurers, Pete. All of the things you mention are purposeful aims of our nursery; from the partnership with our nutritionist to the mixed ages of professional staff to the regular extracurricular and impromptu trips into the community. It is wonderful to hear parent reviews especially when you can see the difference these all make to your little one's early years adventures. Thank you for taking the time out to write this for us.
Fantastic nursery run by a first class team. Achieving high standards in all areas of care, diet and EYL. Plenty of outside time mixed with learning play and interactions. Not the cheapest but well worth the investment.

My elder daughter has been attending since it first opened and it has truly been a home from home experience for us. She has developed very special bonds with her carers, especially the manager, and had a lot of fun. They have provided all the support and guidance she has required from the ages of 18 months to 4 and a half years old.
There is a consistency in the level of care, and any comments or questions are thoroughly investigated. There is evidence of continuous improvement, for example in the nutrition, activities and in the outdoor space.
With no other options for childcare, I was initially apprehensive about a nursery setting, however, any concerns quickly dissipated and I saw the benefits of an excellent nursery environment. I now have 2 children at the nursery and I have always felt happy leaving my children in their care.Our relationship with Little Adventurers has been a very positive experience, with genuine affection and I couldn't recommend them highly enough
Dear Sarah, we are so glad that your children have had such a great time with us. it has been a truly precious thing to watch each one of them grow and become the confident little people that they are.

Dear Sarah, we are so glad that your children have had such a great time with us. it has been a truly precious thing to watch each one of them grow and become the confident little people that they are. Throughout the years we have looked after them it has been such a pleasure to see their zest for life, demonstrated in different ways, with an innate curiosity, a wonderful flair for creativity and a gentleness towards others. Together we have explored diverse topics such as seed pods, making ballet shoes from ribbons and climbing trees and have enjoyed every cuddle, all the laughs and every gasp of wonder!Thank you so much for taking the time out to write this wonderful review - we look forward to sharing it with our whole staff team.

The staff are excellent in every way from caring and excelling my child in every aspect of his time spent there. We have really noticed the difference in our child learning from the moment he started and have watched him excel over the years.
What a fantastic review Michelle - thank you for taking the time to write this. We really value our staff team and it wonderful to hear parents comment about them in this way - they will be delighted and proud to read this and know they are making a real difference in your little one's learning journey. We look forward to many more learning adventurers with him.
Our daughter has been attending the nursery since she was six months old. The nursery have helped her develop into a confident and independent young girl. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The nursery is a home from home and an invaluable part of our support network.

My little daughter is attending Little Adventurers Nursery since she was 18 months. We are very pleased with her progress, she loves coming into this nursery, she loves her key person and all the staff and she has lots of friends. Every day starts with a big smile on her face and it ends with a big laugh. The staff in this nursery is very friendly and very well trained to look after children and teach them what they should know/do (according to their age). "Feel like home" - is the feeling you get when you come into this nursery! All the staff know all the children by their names and the other way around! The management is continuously looking for activities to keep the children entertained, happy and also to learn something useful from what they are doing! The information email with pictures we get at the end of the day is really good! This nursery is so much different from other nurseries. I have already recommended it and I will keep doing it! They are the best!
Hi Mariana and thank you for your terrific review of our nursery. A 'home from home' is exactly our ethos and how we want all our little ones and their parents to view our nursery so it is wonderful that you feel this way. We are so pleased that your little one is enjoying her time with us and we look forward to sharing many more adventures with her! Thank you so much for this lovely review.
My youngest has been going a few months now too and has settled really easily and quickly thanks to the lovely welcoming staff.

Thank you so much for your lovely words about our staff team - we are proud of them all and we are so pleased that both of your little ones are happy and doing well. Many thanks for taking the time to send this review for us.
Our experience so far has been brilliant. The nursery offered as many settling sessions as I could take my son to, to help him as much as possible. His key person has been amazing and in just two weeks has developed a strong bond with my son which is great. All staff are welcoming and the manager...
The nursery is also great with communication and shares daily updates and a newsletter so we feel involved.

Hello Hayley, we are so pleased that your little boy is doing so well and has settled and formed a strong attachment with his key person. The settling process is very important to us and we like parents to feel they can come as often as they wish as it's important for the parents to feel happy and confident about leaving their little one at nursery for the first time. We work hard at building strong partnerships with our parents in so many ways and I hope as time goes on you will enjoy our Community Days, our closed parent Facebook Forum, our parent first aid courses, social events and more! We hope your little boy will continue to enjoy his early childhood adventurers with us. Thank you for taking the time to write a review, it will mean a great deal to our staff team to read this.

Thank you Joe for this review and it is wonderful that you have noticed your daughter coming on in leaps and bounds since joining us. We aim to give children as many learning opportunities as possible with both planned and spontaneous activities like impromptu community visits to the park or woods for example.

My son has come so far since joining this nursery and I am so sure that he wouldn't be the bright, clever little boy he is today without the support from the manager and all of the staff. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Ok, have recommended the nursery to a few people already. Thanks again...

Thank you Nicola for your very kind and lovely review of our nursery. We are so pleased that we come across as a warm, friendly and welcoming place for your little boy. It is brilliant that you also feel your little one has come on in leaps and bounds. Our staff team aim to provide a variety of stimulating environments and lots of opportunity for adventure and discovery for all our nursery children. We look forward to many more happy days with your little boy - especially this week with the arrival of the hatching ducklings!! Thank you once again for taking the time to review us.
The latest addition, a toddler library, is very popular with the little one. He loves to select a book to take home for the weekend.

It's a huge thing trusting someone with your child but the ladies in the baby room have made the transition easier. The care and attention my daughter gets is brilliant, the ladies are fantastic with her. I feel relaxed leaving her knowing she is happy and having fun.
Our daughter is a very fussy eater but she is always catered for and the ladies do an amazing job in helping her with new foods and textures. The variety of nutritional and good food is fantastic.
There is such a wide range of activities throughout the day and we love seeing the pictures on our daily reports of our daughter experiencing these.
We love that the nursery feels like a home from home. We feel happy knowing that she is in a safe and homely environment with people who genuinely care for her.
I couldn't recommend the nursery and its fantastic staff enough.

The range of food is phenomenal and promotes a balanced nutritious diet. They even get the children involved in prep.
My daughter has grown in confidence, excelled in learning and her behaviour and manners have improved vastly thanks to the work of everyone at Little adventurers. I can’t wait for my little boy to start at the nursery too.
Can’t fault anything at all. Absolutely exceeds all my expectations. Thank you.
Thanks you for this brilliant review Jade - it is wonderful that our caring staff team, our nutritional offer along with the creative learning experiences we strive for are all highlighted in your testimonial. We are so pleased that your little one enjoys her days of adventure with us. Many thanks once again - it will be lovely to share this with our staff team.

We have loved Little Adventurers since day one, which was nearly 3 years ago. It is a very warm, welcoming, family environment and both of our children have made wonderful friendships there. Children are encouraged by the staff to learn, play, have fun, be creative and use their imaginations, and as a result, our children have progressed hugely, both physically and mentally, since starting there. I feel confident leaving my children at Little Adventurers every day when I go to work, as it is such a safe, happy and nurturing environment.

Kerry has been a member of the nursery team since the beginning and brings over 13 years of early years experience to the setting. Kerry is our Assistant Deputy Manager and was previously our Deputy Manager prior to her maternity leave. Kerry’s expertise is with our under 2’s age group and she is passionate about giving them a creative and happy time at nursery, “So much of their brain development happens at 0 to 2 years and this has a direct link to their likely outcomes at age 5 and above.” Kerry’s team say that she thinks outside the box and has a calming presence in the baby room. Kerry is also studying for her Level 5 qualification and has previously been a deputy manager. Talking about why she loves Little Adventurers Nursery, she says “It’s simply that children are always put first. We have the flexibility here to make them happy.” Kerry now brings her own little baby to nursery and what better testimonial can there be!

Lewis brings over 20 years experience of early years training to Little Adventurers. He has previously been in a deputy manager role and has Level 3 Business & Management Training. Lewis said that when he first went into childcare his passion was just about working with children but now he has developed that further and (along with having the experience of 4 of his own children) believes in keeping children happy and extending their interest through play. Lewis says, “Working at Little Adventurers has been one of the best supportive environments I have come across. It feels like a family here and it makes it a pleasure to continue my journey in early years education.” For us, it is great to have a male practitioner here at Little Adventurers and Lewis is such a hit with all our little ones!

Charlotte has been working very hard over the past 2 years, studying and recently achieving her level 5 in Early Years & Childcare. During that time, Charlotte has also been promoted from Assistant Deputy to Deputy Manager and she is based in our under 2’s room. Charlotte has been with the setting since before opening as one of the core team members. “Joining Little Adventurers has reminded me why I went into childcare 13 year ago; to give high quality care in a loving and supportive environment. Seeing the change in our little ones from when they first arrive and settle; supporting them as they develop all their skills in prime and specific areas; watching them grow in confidence and enjoy their time at nursery before transferring to school. There’s lots of flexibility at this nursery and it has a real family feel. Ginny is my inspiration with her knowledge and her practice.”
