Review from V K (Mother of Child) published on 21 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Little Faces was recommended to us by a teacher of a primary school and has met/exceeded our expectations. Having sent our other child to another local nursery, we can see such a difference in the care Little Faces provides. It is intimate enough for the staff to know and care for my child yet big enough to offer amazing opportunities such as trips and outsourced lessons such as Spanish.

Reply from Jane Deighton, at Little Faces Nursery School

Thank you for your kind review. We aim to deliver an outstanding service at all times and are thrilled that we have met and exceeded your expectations.

Overall Experience

When I first thought about looking for a nursery a friend told me about Little Faces and I am so thankful that she did. I had a visit to Little Faces after viewing another nursery and everything about that first visit set my mind at ease and I felt my daughter would be well looked after by staff who appeared to love their jobs.

My eldest daughter has now started school but my youngest is still at Little Faces.

They have both been exceptionally well looked after by not just their key workers but all the staff, who genuinely seem to care about them. I have never felt rushed when dropping off or picking up - I get a thorough handover every evening.

I have been overwhelmed with how much they have learnt, both academically and socially - the amount and variety of activities that they do each day amaze me!

The setting is lovely and very secure. I would not hesitate in recommending Little Faces to anyone - this isn't just a business, the owner and staff are passionate about childcare.
