Little Inspirations Aman is located within the Aman Children & Family Centre and is registered to care for children from 6 weeks old. This lovely nursery has a wonderful large garden and excellent resources providing Flying Start, Childcare Offer and private childcare places.

There is a lovely, large garden where children can get plenty of fresh air, with a standard day being 8am till 6pm.

The garden is used in all weathers and children can take part in a huge range of physical activities where they can enhance their gross motor skills. These include playing on bikes and scooters and using the climbing frame, slide and parachute as well as playing with sand and water and digging and getting messy.

Staff also encourage children to use their fine motor skills with activities that are age and ability appropriate such as doing jigsaws and finger painting as well as mark making.

My little boy started in the Easter term and his speech has come on leaps and bounds. If I have ever had any concerns, the girls are so easy to talk to and they're all very assuring. I'm beyond proud of how much my little boy has come on since starting nursery and it's a massive thank you to the amazing
key workers who go above and beyond.

This nursery is Brilliant as a whole from the staff, the learning and play facilities and most importantly they are excellent with the care of the children. They are excellent at keeping you up to date with the children's daily activities which is nice to know what is going on in the setting that day.

My daughter started Flying Start in January and I can honestly say the patience and empathy from the staff (for her and for me!) was incredible.
The setting itself is bright and engaging and the staff are kind and professional.
Absolutely five stars.

My son loves attending flying start at Aman.. He looks forward to going in to see his key worker and often talks about her on an evening /weekend which shows me that he has so much fun there. The photos that are sent to me weekly on the app are incredible and I look forward to them each week. I am impressed
with the Welsh that is used there, as a Welsh speaker myself it's great to see. I couldn't recommend the setting more.

Everyone who works at the nursery are fantastic! They are so welcoming. My son used to be very shy and wouldn't speak, but since going to the nursery in 2024 he's come on leaps and bounds. I can't thank them enough for everything

Very happy my son went here between the ages of 2 and 3 before school and loved it. We then decided through the summer holidays to put him back and he settled back in like he never left. The staff are fantastic and very friendly, would highly recommend it.

Aman Centre Little Inspirations is a fantastic little nursery with every activity and toy you could think of! The girls there are so friendly and helpful and even showed me around the nursery which made me feel at ease straight away! The amount of activities the children do is mind-blowing they just
never get bored! My little girl used to run in and not look back and would talk about the ladies before she went to sleep at night! The manager was always on hand to answer questions and the photos sent every day gave me an insight into what they were all up to. Fantastic nursery with amazing staff who work hard and love what they do.

Everyone has been amazing, as a first-time parent and being completely new to the area they have really made me feel comfortable and welcome. My daughter has become so confident and is so happy when she gets to see her friends. When we had an upset drop-off they sent over pictures to reassure us that
she was happy and playing. Can't rate them enough would recommend them to everyone with little ones!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely amazing and supportive members of staff. Beautiful environment which provides my grandchild with educational and curious approach set ups to play and explore something different everyday inside and outside.
They also involve me in the planning by asking what my grandchild's interests are
they then feed this into the planning. My grandchild goes on educational trips including Castell Coch and also local walks to parks and the post office. I have daily photos of what my grandchild does throughout the day along with information of what she has eaten that day through the setting app. The setting also provides healthy snacks and dinners in line with healthy preschool. My grandchild has made excellent relationships with all staff and it's clear to see when I collect her where she never wants to come home this shows me that she's had an amazing day if I could give the nursery 11/10 I would.

What an amazing team of staff, my son struggles with new people, but you all made him feel welcome and brought him out of his shell. He has come on so much since being at creche. You catered for his milk allergy needs from day one which made me feel at ease.

Little Inspirations is an absolutely lovely little nursery. My son enjoys going there so much and has really come on with his speech and also interacting a lot better with others. My daughter also attended here and she also loved her time there. The staff are always friendly and happy and always seem
to go that little bit extra to make sure the children are taken good care of and enjoy every day. I love the app they use to communicate and the regular pictures we get with little updates and it's also lovely to see how they set the nursery areas up each day ready for the children to arrive.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.994)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.994) out of 10 for Little Inspirations Aman 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.994 for Little Inspirations Aman is calculated as follows: ( (316 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 318 Ratings = 4.994
  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 Inspirations Aman is based on 27 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4, which has been reached with 27 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.
