Staff at LL have all been excellent at helping my daughter to settle in quickly she is so happy at LL and loves being there! Its clear how all staff care for my daughter. She talks about them a lot at home! I can see how much she is developing since starting LL and it's a joy to watch. I know staff at LL are great at encouraging her interests and supporting her to develop her character & individuality. It's hard when you baby isn't with you sometimes but I am so happy & confident in the care she receives.
Thank you for your lovely review. We work hard to ensure that each child develops their individual personalities and support the parents through photos and updates on our app.I will pass your kind words onto our fabulous staff team.
The staff at this particular nursery have no consideration for a parent being sick. My child came home with marks on his body that are unexplained. The staff are very rude towards the children and shout at them. My experience has not been great, and I would recommend that you keep well away from this nursery.
At Little Lambs, we prioritise a supportive environment and have established clear policies for our nursery families. Unfortunately, there was a breach that resulted in unpaid fees and inappropriate behaviour towards our dedicated staff, which we simply cannot accept. This situation has regrettably led to the decision to end the contract.
Fairly new to the nursery but have had a warm welcome and both children seem very happy. The manager communicates well and welcomes input from parents whilst reviewing policies. Happy with our choice so far. Thanks Little Lambs Day Nursery.
Thank you for your review. We strive to involve our parents with every step of nursery life. We are so pleased you are happy with the nursery.
Highly recommend this nursery - my little boy always found it hard leaving me, however, within 5 mins always settled and had a lovely time here. The staff were always pleasant and on pick up, would tell you what they have done throughout the day. Would always be something different and always had outdoor play.
Thank you for your review. We work really hard to ensure that transitions for the children are made as smooth as possible especially those when leaving parents. Your little one loves outdoors and we are excited for the new ideas we have for the gardens in the future - watch this space!
We have been really impressed with Little Lambs which my daughter has been attending for the past two years. Even though like a typical toddler, she is sometimes reluctant to go into the nursery in the mornings, once she sees the friendly staff and her friends she is fine. She always comes home happy from her nursery days as they are full of fun and engaging activities. Her vocabulary has come on leaps and bounds since attending nursery and she has learnt so many skills in the past two years. She loves her classmates and the staff who you can tell really care about the children. Our second daughter will be attending the nursery next year and I'm confident she too will enjoy it and be very happy. Would highly recommend the nursery to friends and family. Thank you Little Lambs.
Thank you for the lovely review of Little Lambs. We love seeing your daughter so involved in nursery life and watching her grow into a wonderful little girl. We are so excited to have her sister starting with us in the new year too.
Absolutely amazing nursery, the staff are lovely and kind my daughter loves going to the nursery in the afternoon learning so much making new friends and enjoying all the activities and she is improving so much the staff are wonderful with her especially when she gets emotional doing drop-offs.
Thank you for your review. Your daughter always settles so quickly after a cuddle with her key person and loves getting stuck in with all the activities.
I feel happy leaving him there and can message if any problems or queries.
Very grateful to all of the staff there.
Thank you for your review. We love our little chats with your son, he is such a happy little boy, and we are so proud of his journey through Little Lambs.
I can't recommend Little Lambs enough, both my boys struggle with drop-offs, and we still have the 'I want to stay at home mummy' but my eldest always comes out and says he had a lovely day and didn't miss me too much. All the staff worked with us, for what was best for my boys. Helping with drop off, following their lead on what they needed to help make this transition easier. And easier for me, I never worried about leaving them with any of the staff. They all are so kind and thoughtful, and I'm so glad we met them on our journey. My youngest has allergies and gets really sore skin and the nursery are always so thoughtful and kind with him, applying his cream and keeping an eye on him. They're so warm and friendly with the boys which helps me. The boys always come home with lovely things that they have done in the day! Which is so nice to see, they do lots of lovely activities. I couldn't ask for any more for them. I can't thank them enough for everything.
Thank you for your review. We love having your boys at nursery and seeing their lovely little smiles on their sessions. They settle very quickly now and definitely enjoy their days at nursery. We take allergies very seriously so I am glad you are happy with the care and attention that we give.
I cannot praise this nursery enough. My boys absolutely love going in every morning running to the door. My boys are nonverbal and have SEN and to see how happy they are in here makes me so happy. They went the extra mile to accommodate their needs, bought sensory toys for them and offered extra help with no funding in place paying from their own budget. The care and love they receive every day is much appreciated. I will be forever grateful for the start in life they received from Little Lambs.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We love having your boys at nursery and their smiles brighten the room. We will miss them when they go to school in September.
I am given reviews of how my child is progressing in terms of my child's development.
Thank you for your review. I am glad that you like our app to give you updates and photos throughout the day.
Absolutely love this nursery, my son has a great time and is really well looked after. All the staff are so friendly and approachable if you ever have any issues you can easily talk to them. My son has been going since 2021 and will be leaving to go to school this year, I am really sad that I won't be seeing the staff.
Thank you for your review. Your son has been an absolute pleasure to have at Little Lambs. We wish him all the very best for school when September comes and will miss your family and your son's smiley face each session.
Thanks from the heart for all your hard work, love, dedication, patience to both girls and helping with potty training, caring when they were not feeling well, making every day a fun environment to go, cuddle, sleeping. First daughter settled amazingly well in two months I believe, even she was admitted in COVID restrictions and didn't have the opportunity to go with her for transition, trouble was more with me to settle and being reassured most of the time about. The little one she is very happy, likes going to babies, sometimes with tears but after she quickly settled. Very fussy when it comes to food and with your staff patience help us to improve. Always received support and help, understanding from all staff, paperless from office. Definitely I am happy, and no worries being at work. Thank you.
Thank you for your wonderful review. We take extra care during the settling in process to ensure not only your child but also parents feel happy and secure before the children start their full sessions. We look forward to continuing to share your child's journey through Little Lambs.
Amazing but disappointing and discriminatory, feeling sad to say that but especially the assistant manager team and another staff person were amazingly rude until I threatened with court, then they changed their attitude, so no thank you. Don't get me wrong, my child is ok there but don't judge a person without knowing both stories.
I'm sorry to hear that you feel this way, especially as your child enjoys attending Little Lambs. We haven't received any official complaint from you, so your feedback was unexpected. After discussing the situation with you from November 2023 and March 2024 being the first time the nursery was made...
Amazing nursery with amazing staff. Having moved my child from another setting I couldn't be happier. My son is so much happier he is progressing more he has built strong relationships with staff and I have regained trust after a bad experience with another childcare practice. Staff and management couldn't do enough for me and him to settle in and I am beyond grateful. Other members of my family have commented on how much my son has come along since joining the new nursery. We have been here for 4 months now and very happy.
Thank you for your amazing review. We have enjoyed watching your son settling in and are looking forward to continuing to share the journey with you and your family.
We would whole heartedly recommend the baby room (under 2’s) at Little Lambs nursery to anybody looking for childcare. Our first child joined the baby room at 10 months old and settled so well and loved his nursery days. Fast forward a few years and our second child joined Little Lambs at 9 months old and she just loves it. The staff and all the team are so amazing. They are happy to accommodate any routine and have been unbelievably good with our daughters multiple food allergies. She eats fantastically at nursery and never goes without because of her dietary requirements. It’s such a huge feeling of relief as working parents knowing that our children are not only safe and well cared for at nursery but also that they gain so much happiness and love through being there.
