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.

Review from Joanne F (Mother of Child) published on 30 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An amazing inclusive, immersive and engaging nursery that sees every child's potential and ability as their own and nurtures them to their max.
I can't highly praise Little Inspirations Aman enough, for not only supporting and encouraging my child but offering me as a parent and person in my own right
support too. They see individuals and not statistics, they encompass every child with a mother's love and guidance and as a mother that's exactly what I want from a nursery setting. Staff that engage and enrich my child's life in a setting just as engaging and enriching.
As a nursery they are flawless. Every day multiple activities set out, every day a different path for a child to follow, a new adventure into learning and free open play with outdoor access. Any parent leaving their child here is giving them the best start to a bright and exciting future as it's the right foundation to build up.

Review from C N (Mother of Child) published on 30 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The nursery and staff are absolutely amazing. My daughter can sometimes be a little upset about going to nursery (become very clingy to me lately) and the girls are amazing with the distractions and sending me photos 10 minutes later ensuring me that she's settled and completely fine. All the girls
are very chatty and always have a smile on their faces, with a positive attitude towards all the children. My daughter's key worker is absolutely brilliant, keeping me updated on her development and even giving a written report which she goes through face to face with me. Every time I go to the setting there are at least 5 different activities set up for the children and the back door (into the garden) is always open for the children to explore. All the staff really take their time in ensuring each child is happy, and well cared for, and makes sure they are happy within the setting. My daughter attended the nursery since January and I've never seen a single child crying. Highly recommend Little Inspirations.

The nursery has provided exceptional support to both myself and my daughter during her stay. The staff is incredibly polite, caring, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure our needs are met. I am consistently kept informed and contacted when necessary, which gives me great peace of mind.
I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding care and attention my daughter receives at this nursery.

Review from C M (Guardian of Child) published on 29 July 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
All the staff are really welcoming, smiling every day as they meet you at the door, greeting us in Welsh (a big bonus as a Welsh-speaking family). They keep you updated every day with messages and photos of what your child has done during the session which is great and any concerns are dealt with with
great empathy and professionalism. The nursery environment is full of amazing activities set up to promote curiosity and follow the children's interests to help with their development. Can't fault it at all. Can I give them 11 out of 10?

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Absolutely lovely nursery, my daughter loves the staff and all her friends, they send us fantastic updates of her day and my daughter has become more confident and opened up as a person. She is amazing with her communication and talking in sentences now, managed to learn a lot within the past few months
since she started and I'm grateful to the staff for teaching her the best skills she can and has learned.

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.
