Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my children have attended Little Manor Day Nursery, and I couldn't be happier with the care, love, and support they've received. One has now moved on to school, but their time at Little Manor gave them the confidence and skills to thrive. The staff are incredibly nurturing, creating a warm and
safe environment where my children have flourished.
They've grown so much in confidence - both emotionally and physically, thanks to the team's dedication. It's been amazing to see their independence, social skills, and happiness develop.
The nursery has also been wonderfully supportive of our child with special educational needs. Staff have undertaken extra training and use Makaton for communication, which has made a huge difference. Their commitment to inclusion and tailored support has been outstanding.
I always feel reassured knowing my child is in such capable and loving hands. Little Manor is a special place, and I highly recommend it to any parent seeking a nurturing, enriching environment.
Reply from Naomi Jones, Nursery Manager at Little Manor Nursery SchoolThank you so, so much for all your kind words. We really do try to make the nursery a special and safe place for our children to flourish and we really appreciate you sharing this with our prospective parents.

We moved our son to Little Manor Day Nursery in July 2023 after we felt his existing setting was no longer good enough. All the staff made him feel so welcome and he settled in really quickly. The play, learning activities and support provided have been wonderful. We get plenty of updates and the staff
all make a real effort to get to know you and support the children in preparing for starting school.

As far as cleanliness standards, enthusiasm and genuine care go this nursery is outstanding. They genuinely care about giving my child the best day when I drop them off, words go far but it’s the actions and overall attentiveness that are so good to see when it comes to the care of my child.
I can
see it on my son's face the moment we pull up to the nursery to when I pick him up, he loves it and has only been for 4 days which I think says everything.
We have only been a part of the nursery for a month, and already I am blown away by the service. I couldn’t recommend it enough.
The food always smells so good too!
Reply from Naomi Jones, Nursery Manager at Little Manor Nursery SchoolThank you so much for your kind words and praise for the team. We're so glad you're impressed with Little Manor so far and we really appreciate you sharing these views with others!

My daughter has been at Little Manor since 2021 where she started in the Baby Room. From her first day, to now the care she has received has been nothing but consistent. She has always gone to nursery with a smile on her face and never once refused to go. The staff are all so kind and nurturing and
with some of them being mums themselves it’s amazing to see them all treat my daughter like their own. They have supported her through her development, from learning to talk, to potty training her and now teaching her skills for when she starts school next year. My daughter is thriving and she amazes us everyday. She is currently in preschool and learns French too. Want to give a huge thank you to all the staff for making my daughter who she is today! We couldn’t be more proud.

As soon as we had a look around the nursery we knew it was the one for our daughter. She had two settling-in sessions which she really enjoyed and we were more than happy with what was to offer for our daughter. Our daughter has a milk allergy and they accommodate that so well and we feel confident
in the fact that she won’t have anything with milk in. Our daughter cries at drop off but we know with the pictures on the app that she soon settles and has so much fun! She’s always smiling and having fun when we pick her up! They have really helped our daughter get into a routine which we really appreciate. The nursery is always clean and well looked after but the main thing for us is the staff. The care and interest they show for our daughter just makes it so much easier sending her to nursery. Any questions I have they are always willing to answer and I feel so comfortable with our daughter being in their care!

I've always been happy with Little Manor. I know my child is safe and they will look after him like one of their own.
The team are super friendly and I know my child will miss them terribly when he leaves in August.

I am so happy with this nursery. The staff have a loving, caring, friendly approach. They do so much with them, take them out to the park, lots of activities, etc.
My little boy started at 10 months old and they constantly keep me updated throughout the day, and also have parent's evenings. They even
phoned me when he started to crawl as they felt so proud of him and knew how excited I would be.

I think the thing that stands out most for me is the staff. They are all the most caring and compassionate group of people that genuinely seem to love their jobs and the children. They all really go out of their way to help the children learn and grow. The staff regularly take the children and do something
fun, trips to the park, or the library. I think one thing that’s really important for me is that the staff always listen to any concerns you have or anything you have to say in regards to your child’s care and take that seriously. Having that two-way communication for me is super important as you can feel so anxious leaving your little one for the first time. I feel my little one has been super supported through different developmental stages and they really helped her with weaning and nap times in those early days (p.s. - they are napping wizards!). Couldn’t recommend enough and if I have another they will be first on the waiting list.

I couldn't be happier with the care given to my little boy at Little Manor Day Nursery. The carers in his room are outstanding and couldn't do more for him, he quickly formed strong bonds with all of them and became very comfortable when arriving at morning drop off. They consistently ask about what
they can do to support his development and through their support he has come on in leaps and bounds. He has started to walk, talk and feed himself with a spoon! They have been so supportive in caring for his eczema and have now accommodated a dairy free diet for him to try and help with this further. The nursery has such a lovely atmosphere and is so homely. The new garden is such a wonderful outside space and the children get a chance to play outside almost every day. The new manager is so friendly and very knowledgeable and has already helped us with our little boy's skin issues. I would recommend Little Manor to anyone.

We are really pleased with the care and support for our little one from the management team and staff within the nursery. As anxious parents to a child who needs additional support at challenging times we really do now feel at ease when we drop off in the morning. And our little boy doesn't want to
come home at the end of day! Our child's keyworker in particular really does aim to support his needs and communicate with us every step of the way. She's an asset to the nursery! The manager and deputy have made a significant impact in the nursery throughout the past few months we feel and its a lovely, welcoming setting to walk into. Our little boy is progressing in ways we didn't think he was going to, so this really does put us at ease about the decision to take him to Little Manor. I feel really supported as a parent by the manager, and feel comfortable to discuss our child's development at any time. We are looking forward to our little man growing further here.

Little Manor has been the perfect place for my little girl. She has blossomed into an independent young girl and has learnt so many skills from the staff. All the staff members are so helpful and absolutely adore the children they care for. They have supported our family through every stage of my little
girl's development and continue to build her confidence in everything she does. We can't be more thankful.

We love Little Manor Day Nursery. When we first went to visit, we really liked how chilled the baby's room was and how friendly all of the staff were. The app is great to see what our little boy is eating and sleeping each day, and it's lovely to see the pictures. I love how they go out on trips to
the park, library and even the shop. I would definitely recommend.

From one mum to another who is reading this review, this is the nursery you need to send your child to. I went to this nursery at the end of March close to tears, after the relationship had totally broken down at my little one's previous nursery, and they were so welcoming and made me feel at ease within
minutes. They update me daily with pictures and messages about what’s going on and how they are, my little boy was a lockdown baby so struggles with new people, and he absolutely loves it, goes to them with open arms no tears and a smile on his face! Now the big one, my little girl starts school in September and I was extremely worried I was making a mistake moving her nursery’s seeing as she only had a few months left, but they promised they would make these months the best ever, and they really have! I have never seen her so excited to go to school to be with her friends and she is learning more and is more eager to learn at home! Her teacher really is amazing!

My little boy started at Little Manor Day Nursery in September 2020 when it first opened. We went to look around the nursery with my partner and fell in love and cancelled all other nursery visits! It is decorated and furnished to a high standard and absolutely immaculate. It does not have a typical
‘nursery’ feel to it, it feels more like a ‘home from home’ so inviting, warm and safe, which is exactly what we wanted for our boy! The neutral tones throughout, wooden toys and activities add to the whole amazing atmosphere of the nursery! My son has truly developed so much within himself since starting, physically, emotionally and socially intellectually, I can only thank the nursery workers for this. My son walks into nursery with open arms to the managers and workers, who are so friendly and approachable, I believe that he sees them as almost family, with how he smiles and lights up when he sees them in the mornings! Which is a big thing for him as he doesn’t like to leave my side! Thank you so much Little Manor Day Nursery!

Lovely nursery with lovely staff, my little boy settled in unbelievably well, he can be very shy in certain situations and very unsure on change but he loves going to nursery. I feel like I made the best choice, having worked in a nursery setting myself I find I can be quite picky about certain things
but I knew I had made the right decision as soon as I walked through the doors. They have such a lovely setting there with so many ways the children can learn play and explore! I would recommend to anyone to send their child here you won’t be disappointed.

Little Manor nursery is fantastic! It did not take long for my little girl to settle in and she absolutely loves going, so much so that the days she isn't there she asks to go. All the staff are lovely and we have really noticed how she is progressing since starting. She talks about her friends a lot

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.333)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.333) out of 10 for Little Manor Nursery School 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Little Manor Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 5
  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 3.333 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Manor Nursery School is based on 2 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 = 3.125
    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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.208
  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.
