Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Great setting, which my child loves going to and returns home telling me what fun he has been up to. They do lots of activities and my child seems to be learning so much. There is so much on offer for the children to do and seems such a relaxed environment. Food sounds amazing too. The ParentZone app
is great to see some pics of what they have been up to and also if they have eaten all their food or not (so useful to know). Staff all seem so friendly and welcoming.

First, visit to my daughter's nursery and was thoroughly impressed with the facilities and staff. Plenty of areas and activities available for her to keep herself entertained. She returns well-fed each day too making my life slightly easier.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent nursery with friendly, knowledgeable staff. Communication between myself and the nursery is amazing and I am kept updated throughout the time my son is at nursery with nappy changes, meals, nap times aswell as photographs of activities. My childs development has been widely recognised since
he began attending Little Pioneers and he is always so excited to tell me about all the things he has done whilst being there when I collect him. There is a wide range of activities always on offer every day and staff are always happy to take some time to discuss at the end of a session how his day has been.

My son has attended for just under 12 months and we are very happy. The staff are amazing and make it a fun interactive environment. Food and variety is also excellent my son has asked for food we would have never expected him to eat. Thanks for all you do.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son immediately enjoyed his time at this nursery. The rooms are lovely and large, with a wide variety of activities and toys to keep him occupied (it's so nice to be able to go into the rooms and see what my son is engaging with when I go to pick him up). The staff are warm and welcoming and would
highly recommend this setting.

Review from Katie C (Mother of Child) published on 12 May 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son joined in January 2022 and absolutely loves it here. As soon as I visited this nursery and met the team on an open day I knew this was where I wanted to send my son due to the warm and friendly atmosphere. There are lots of toys and activities for the children to get involved with and the careers
always seem to think of new things for the children to do. My son has such a variety of foods throughout the day made on site with the nursery’s own chef. Seeing my son interacting with other children and staff when I go to pick him up is lovely, and it’s great when the apps are updated with pictures and progress reports.

Review from K T (Father of Child) published on 3 May 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Extremely impressed with the Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school - Cheltenham Park. The cleanliness is spot on, with a varied menu by an onsite chef in a full chef uniform. The facilities are excellent, I'm guessing the building is purpose-built with all minor details covered. For example, all door
handles are ultra-high up so curious kids can't escape. Mini bathroom and kitchen areas have tiny toilets and tiny washbasins, which are so cute. I'm very glad my toddler is being looked after here.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I viewed other nurseries in the area and I decided I wasn’t going to take my son to one as none stood out to me, until I viewed Pioneers! It has the best atmosphere and the staff have been amazing at settling my son right in, which was his first time being away from me. He told me right away that he
wanted to go back which said a lot. They are all so friendly and my son really enjoys going. They learn so many things and have beautiful open rooms with all varieties of toys they can play with. The food is incredible and have catered so well to his dietary needs. They have boosted his confidence and I really couldn’t recommend the nursery enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team at Little Pioneers are always so upbeat and enthusiastic, and welcome my daughter with a smile every time she is in. My daughter absolutely loves the time she spends there and speaks very highly of her teachers. She has learnt how to socialise well with others and is encouraged to improve (within
a range of academic and life skills) each and every time. I know she will be deeply saddened to leave when she goes off to school in September.
My middle daughter is incredibly excited to start her adventure there this year, and we can’t wait for her to have the same experience as her older sister.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.849)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.849) out of 10 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Cheltenham Park 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 18 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 4.949 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Cheltenham Park is calculated as follows: ( (206 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.949
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Cheltenham Park is based on 18 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.9
  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.
