Review from Leon C (Father of Child) published on 4 June 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Little Cubs is run by very caring and professional staff, and I couldn't imagine a safer environment to nurture my son's development and growth. I am particularly impressed by the healthy and fresh food choices, which is a genuine reflection of the love and care they apply to all areas of the nursery. I am so happy the nursery has re-opened after the COVID restrictions. We've missed you Little Cubs!

Review from David M (Father of Child) published on 3 June 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Really happy with the nursery. We found out about it through a recommendation, and because our current nursery was closed we had to make a change. To be honest we could not be happier. Amazing facilities, the space is literally wow when you walk through it. The management team, owners and staff are incredibly passionate about what they do, and we were so impressed with the communication and updates they provide to parents. Yes, this is a new nursery to the area, but 100% worth trying for your child, you will not be disappointed. We have signed up our other child for when they are four months old.

Overall Experience

Little Cubs has been great for our son. He's made loads of nice friends, always doing different activities that keep him excited and engaged, especially the forest school. Also love that it's run by people who have similar aged kids, so they understand what is needed and they care, don't just run it like a business. Oh yes, and the food is really healthy and tasty. At least it looks and smells tasty, haven't been invited for lunch yet!

Review from Kahjida A (Mother of Child) published on 28 May 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

It has been great getting to know the owner's as well as the headteacher and deputy. My husband and I really feel we have connected with them. It was really hard at first moving from overseas to an unfamiliar place, and it was very daunting finding a nursery, while at the same time my husband was settling into his new job, and we were adapting to our new home. The nursery has been amazing. We can't wait for them to open on the 1st of June, as we have had no family around to help us in recent weeks. They have such an amazing curriculum, and the space is huge, we are confident we have made the right decision. Best wishes to all at Little Cubs Academy Greenwich.

Overall Experience

Such a fantastic addition to Greenwich. It's amazing having a nursery that's actually run by parents with young children themselves, so they really understand what creates happy and secure children. When you meet the owners you can see they are deeply passionate about what they do, and take immense pride in offering brilliant child care and education. The curriculum is so varied, and they have really invested in creating a stunning natural environment.

My son is two and started at Little Cubs Academy in February this year. It was his first time starting nursery, and he is loving it! Even after a month, he developed a lot. The staff are warm and friendly and take great care of my boy. Thank you.

Review from Alan S (Father of Child) published on 21 May 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have never written a review before but I felt strongly about writing one as I want to show my appreciation to Little Cubs and the new owners. All my children have been at the nursery over a period of many years and so I was concerned about the new owners taking over in 2019. These fears quickly vanished when I could see that they have a really strong understanding of running a nursery and also listen to parents! It is evident that the safety, security and emotional well being of the children is paramount to them and they also have dramatically improved the look and feel of the nursery so that it is a calm environment but also stimulating. I can honestly say I can drop my third child off there and not have a worry in the world. I am just excited to pick up my child and hear what they did at nursery. The staff have been at the nursery for a number of years so there really is a community and family feel. I just recommended the nursery to my neighbour and she even spoke to the owner.

Such a delightful nursery and pre-school. My granddaughter loves going, and whenever I go to pick her up the children seem to be enjoying themselves so much. They have fantastic facilities, the staff and owners are incredibly sweet, and we could not be happier.

My son was very happy at the nursery. He did not want to come home, he enjoyed going in so much. They have really added to their offering by adding so many outdoor activities such as forest school and trips to the local farm.
