Little Adventures Nursery Cheddar is an exceptional nursery where children are well cared for and have a magical journey of learning from baby up until they go to school.
The nursery got my eldest ready and prepared for school and my youngest has just started here and is thriving.

My daughter is absolutely happy when she is in a group of children and teachers. As a mother, I like to attitude towards children and the approach to teaching despite the fact that my daughter is the only Ukrainian in the kindergarten she has no problem with communications.

This nursery was excellent before they decided to grow far too quickly. Excessive high staff turnover is unsettling for the children, coupled with either lack of Health & Safety training or once their training is completed staff are under so much pressure they fail to put basic safeguarding in place.
Such a shame as 2 years ago my rating would have been significantly different.

Fantastic nursery with caring staff, a wide variety of activities for the children, lots of tasty food and plenty of time in the soft play! My son has developed in himself so much since going to Little Adventures. I love our daily updates at handover and photos of what they have been getting up to
on the app. His days are always fun packed and varied, plus he is always happy to go in to nursery in the mornings too, he gets excited when he sees the staff! Highly recommended nursery 100%.

My daughter really loves coming here to nursery and has been attending for almost a year now. They provide daily updates and photos from the varied activities she does there and gets a six-monthly report update on how she is developing.
The food she is provided with is varied and the nursery staff
are all brilliant with her. Highly recommend it !

My grandchild has attended nursery here for almost a year now. From the word go, she was welcomed by all the wonderful members of staff, who are all so enthusiastic and warm. To me, what a small child really needs is to feel safe and loved. That is exactly what this nursery has made her feel! She runs
in every day, with hardly a backwards glance. You could not wish for a better environment for her to thrive in!

My grandson has been attending nursery since October 2020. He has always been so happy and always has a great time. He has been learning so fast to the credit of all the staff who are very caring and nothing is too much trouble. He has made some amazing little friends. I would not hesitate to recommend
this nursery to anyone, it always has very high standards. Keep up the good work and thank you.

Our son loves attending Little Adventures nursery. As first time parents, leaving your child with strangers is hard but the staff instantly made us feel relaxed and as if we were leaving him with family friends. He has since formed some lovely bonds with these wonderful staff members. We love the app
to keep us updated on his activities, meals and naps throughout the day. We are sent regular observations regarding his development and a weekly review video which is just lovely to watch. Every single thing they do has the children's happiness and wellbeing at heart. Would highly recommend.

Our granddaughter is doing very well at this nursery. It is lovely to be able to check in on the app and see how she is doing throughout the day, and to see the wonderful photos that have been posted with what she has been doing. She is learning to play with her peers and interacting well. She is enjoying
it very much. The staff seem caring and enthusiastic about the children in their care.

We couldn't of picked a better setting for our son! The staff and the setting are wonderful. Our son is thriving since starting at Little Adventurers. He loves to put his nursery uniform on and runs to the door of the nursery when we arrive, always a good sign! The parent app is nothing I've ever come
across before, and is a fantastic way of seeing what our sone gets up to in the day and seeing photos of him having fun with all his friends. Thank you all for the wonderful care our son gets.

Great staff, clean facilities and just what we needed. The staff are so accommodating and my son now runs in with a smile on his face! They helped celebrate his 1st birthday and made him feel so special and he has made lots of new friends. Being born in lockdown and during a pandemic I was so worried
but all those worries have gone away and I couldn't recommend them more.

We are delighted with Little Adventures nursery. Our 13 month old daughter is happy and thriving there.
We like the use of the Famly App which is utilised to keep us up to date on her activities (indoor and outdoor), naps and food. The observations are personal and frequent and we can tell that the
staff really care for her. The activities are interesting, varied and themed and we’re encouraged to continue the themes at home.
The staff are personable, friendly and flexible and offer a nurturing environment.
Overall, an outstanding nursery that we happily recommend.

My son has settled in really quickly with the help and support of all the staff.
He really enjoys the range of activities he has throughout the day.
We get updates throughout the day on what he is doing on the app.
He never wants to come home after a day at nursery, which is always a good sign!
Highly recommend!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.928)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.928) out of 10 for Little Adventures Nursery Cheddar is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.928 for Little Adventures Nursery Cheddar is calculated as follows: ( (234 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.928
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Adventures Nursery Cheddar is based on 21 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 37 number of registered child places is 7.4, which has been reached with 21 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
