Both my daughters attended Little Flowers and I can’t say a bad thing about the staff or their time at the nursery. The staff are always friendly and helpful and I found the recent change in management has benefited the running of the nursery even further.

My son loved Little Flowers Nursery. We were always greeted by a happy, excited boy when we collected him, and he was excited to tell us about his day. The teachers were always friendly and supportive. The outdoor space is brilliant, especially if you have an outdoor kid like mine. I would highly recommend
this nursery due to their commitment to learning and the staff.

My child is so happy at this nursery! She goes in with a smile and comes home with an even bigger one. She is cared for with such tenderness and attentiveness that I feel satisfied that we choose here. She is also learning so much every day. I am also very grateful for the halal menu; it means a lot
to us. Thank you.

Since starting my wee boy in July the girls in the baby room have been amazing, they have put me at ease when leaving my baby. He always has many opportunities to be outdoors and various learning experiences available for him each day! The girls are very informative and always make sure I have a daily
sheet so I can see exactly what he’s been doing each day. Wide variety for lunches and cater to my son who has a few allergies. Management are always available when needed and very quick in answering any of my queries.

Amazing nursery couldn't fault them my wee girl had the best two years at Little Flowers. She suffers a lot of allergies and the nursery went above and beyond to make sure she was well looked after and catered to her every need. They have the best outdoor areas which she loved the most. every staff
member in Little flowers is amazing and I can't wait now for my son to join and start his journey with them.

Nothing but positive things to say about Little Flowers Nursery. From the fun variety of activities to encourage development, to all the friendly members of the team. My child loves going to nursery, always big smiles for any of the girls that come out to collect him for breakfast. Am so pleased we
decided to send him to Little Flowers Nursery and will hopefully stay right through to when he starts school.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have had a really positive experience at Little Flowers since my child started two years ago. Staff are very polite, approachable and accommodating with anything we ask. They have built a great relationship with my child but also with me and my husband, despite the challenges of Covid-19 the last
few years and have always made a great effort to keep us updated on how she is doing every day. The facilities of the nursery are great, and most importantly, it's a safe and friendly environment in which my child is encouraged to learn and develop new skills all the time. The staff take time to help my child go at her own pace with her development and provide practical advice/support to her, my partner and I if there have been any issues eg, toilet training. Management in the nursery has also been great; they take time to listen to us and deal with any requests we have had and are good at communicating updates on what's happening in the nursery, i.e. new staff or any upcoming events.

They look after the welfare of our daughter in all aspects of her learning. It is commendable and I am happy to see my daughter every time I pick her up here smiling, she is good and happy. The staff are very nice as well.

I have only positive comments to make about this nursery. Even though my son only attends one day a week, I feel that all the staff know him and care for him. He is loved and cared for. He loves the food and always comes out smiling. An excellent establishment.

Ever since enrolling my son I’ve seen many improvements. My sons speech and counting and even social and motor skills have improved a great deal. This place is amazing. The girls are great with all the children and really take great care of the kids. Classes aren’t big so kids get all the attention.
It has a very homey feeling and the child to teacher ratio is great! Director is awesome. I would recommend this place to everyone with little ones. I can’t wait to enroll my daughter in here when she’s old enough.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.924)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.924) out of 10 for Little Flowers Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.958 for Little Flowers Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (68 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.958
  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 3.966 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Flowers Nursery is based on 6 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 = 3.6
    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 82 number of registered child places is 16.4. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.4 = 0.366
  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.
