Little Den isn’t just a nursery, it’s a home for our children to be themselves and play happily and safely with their friends. The staff are absolutely incredible and the happiness of the children is what matters.
It’s a place filled with love.
The staff are so creative, especially with their
daily activities. It’s magical and absolutely shows in my little girl's imagination and her independent play.
Management goes above and beyond and they are very much involved in the care of our children.
The place is spotless! I would absolutely recommend this nursery to all my family and friends and we will be very sad to leave as our school journey begins. A special thank you to one staff member for everything, you’ve been there from day one and you little superstar will miss you.
Ladies, nothing is ever too much trouble and thank you for always treating us with a smile. Thanks for everything ladies.

My little boy started at The Little Den Day Nursery in January 2023 and he settled so well! His learning and development has come on leaps and bounds since starting and gets on amazing with all the staff.
The garden area is brilliant, and for a little boy who loves the outdoors it is perfect for my
son! Couldn’t ask for a better place for him to be and I’ve already enquired about increasing his days when his 30 hour funding begins once he’s 3!

The Little Den Day Nursery is like a home away from home for my little boy, who’s 1. He loves going which is something he hasn’t had at previous nurseries. I ask him if he’s ready to go to nursery and he nods and starts walking towards the door with his bag.
He loves all members of staff because they’re
so friendly, welcoming, caring, and couldn’t do enough for both the children and their families.
We get regular updates on all of the exciting things the children have been up to which is lovely to see as they’re always doing fabulous activities, and spending lots of time in the garden which my little boy loves!
He’s come on leaps and bounds with his development and confidence in just a few months since starting thanks to the attentive staff and the brilliant activities they prepare for the children.
I couldn’t speak more highly on the Little Den Chesterton. They really have got everything down to a T, and the team really are the best team you could wish for to care for your children.

My little boy has recently started at The Little Den from a childminder. At first, I was very nervous about this, but even after his first day, my nerves were soon put at ease. This nursery is absolutely amazing, they have a gorgeous setting and such a homely feel. The staff are so passionate about
what they do and that shows in how happy the children are. My little boy can sometimes be a bit upset when he's first dropped off, but shortly after, I get sent pictures of him to let me know he's absolutely fine and happy playing away. Couldn't recommend this nursery enough five stars just doesn't cut it, they deserve more!

My son has settled in so well to the setting. All the staff members are welcoming and really do understand that each child has individual needs. I have no issues dropping off my son and he happily stays with no tears because I leave. It's a warming happy setting with beautiful-minded girls and a wonderful
management team behind them. I would 100% recommend Little Den to anyone who is looking for nursery placements for their children.

Little Den Nursery, what an amazing place. After always looking after my grandson from such an early age, he started to attend this nursery just before his second birthday. To say I was nervous was an understatement but the staff are so reassuring, helpful and friendly. They always get back to your
messages to make you feel more at ease. He is slowly settling in now and the staff make him feel so comfortable and fulfil his day with lovely activities.

Our little boy has recently started at The Little Den Day Nursery - Chesterton and we are so happy with it. The environment is absolutely wonderful and there are so many lovely activities to keep him busy and stimulated throughout the day. I really like the fact that we get frequent updates on the app
so that we are able to see what he is up to during the day. This is really important for us, as we know he is happy and enjoying his day at the Nursery whilst we are at work. The ladies are all lovely too, all being very welcoming and professional. We are so happy that we found this Nursery.

An amazing nursery, it's got such a warm homely feel. My little boy is still uneasy as home and his Nana's are the only places he ever goes to and they make an amazing effort to calm him and distract him. They are so good with communication throughout the day to keep my mind at ease.

I honestly cannot rate this nursery enough. The communication is amazing, and any questions I have had, have been answered quickly. I was anxious about leaving my child, and the staff made me feel so comfortable. My little girl has settled in amazingly due to the amazing efforts of the staff and management
team, and she walks in confidently, which is alot for her. They regularly update you on the app, and you get to see daily photos of your little one enjoying themselves. Would 100% recommend.

The Little Den really does provide a gold standard of care to both parents and children. I moved my daughter to the little Den Chesterton from the Basford nursery (which I absolutely loved too) as it was much closer to home. My little girl has settled in like a dream, due to the consistency that all
the nurseries have. They are incredibly homely and put children at ease. Staff are invaluable and extremely passionate in their care which shows in how happy the children are. I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

The Little Den Day Nursery is amazing! Communication from the staff is brilliant. My son came for three settling-in sessions, one with me and the rest on his own for an hour and then two. The staff were brilliant with him, and I knew the nursery was the best for my son from the first visit! I am kept
updated via an app throughout the day, and at the end of the day, when he is collected, they tell us what he has been up to/what he's enjoyed! Would recommend all three of the nurseries to anyone with young children.

Our experience has been amazing! My little one has never been looked after by anybody but family before. All of the ladies that work there have been so supportive of me as well as her (I was super nervous), with her settling in and keeping me updated with how she is getting on throughout the day. They
cater to all of her dietary requirements without any problems. I can tell that all the staff really care about the children, they are super helpful with advice and are just generally lovely people. I'm so glad that we have them.
