Review from Jess W (Mother of Child) published on 3 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Two of my children currently attend Little explorers, one in the baby room and one in pre-school. They both love it here and feel so comfortable with all the staff, my little one cannot get in the door quick enough in the mornings.
They do a variety of activities and take them out on trips all the time. I feel so comfortable leaving my children here knowing that they are well taken care of and having so much fun.
I could write comments on the staff individually but honestly every single one deserves praise as they are all so brilliant.
I have a fussy eater and they always make sure she eats (as much as possible!)

Cannot recommend enough, thank you! (My preschooler even sings in Spanish now!)

Review from Alice G (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The team are all very welcoming and caring and provide a good variety of activities and support to the children. Positive behaviour reinforcement is promoted particularly with regard to children's independence, eating and creativity.
The facilities at the nursery are great with access to varied toys, equipment and "extra curriculars" e.g. forest school, trips out etc. While outside space is limited they have worked hard to make the these areas fun and enriching.
Communication with the parents is good with regular nursery updates and an app.

The one area I would like to see more of (and that's not to say it doesn't happen as we know it does!) would be a little more support with reading and writing to help set the kids up for reception.

Overall Experience
Our daughter has been attending Little Explorers, at Royal George Road, since she was 6 months old. Now at 28 months, she has thrived in this safe, supportive and structured environment. The team have been fantastic and encouraged her learning at every step whilst giving us regular updates of her progression.

I can't recommend Little Explorers and especially the amazing staff, enough.

Review from Oliver L (Father of Child) published on 14 October 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has settled into nursery really well with the help of the amazing staff. They made both of us feel very welcome. My child loves going to nursery. She talks all about her nursery practitioner. She has made a great connection with one of the staff who helped her settle and helped her grow so much.

My child has settled into nursery beautifully and we are very happy with the keyworkers.

We have noticed how she has developed in her communication and have noticed how settled she is here. We look forward to watching her grow and develop over the coming weeks, months and years. Thank you for all that you do!

Overall Experience

Our little one absolutely loves Little Explorers. She enjoys it so much that she asks to come and says she's not in. The staff are all lovely and really accommodating. The food is fantastic to the point she will eat multiple plates of food. Overall we are really happy with how she's getting on, the friends she's made and how much she's learnt.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this wonderful review! I love the food too, whenever I visit the nurseries I always make sure to arrive at lunchtime so I can have a little plate! We put a lot of work into our menu, working with a nutritionist to make sure that every meal is both delicious...

Review from E B (Mother of Child) published on 9 October 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son has been at Little Explorers Royal George Road for 6 months and is now 12 months old. He's been so well supported by the members of the baby room, they took such great care when he was first settling in and really helped us adjust too with thoughtful handovers and clear asks (eg when to pack extras of things!).

A particular thanks to one of the staff who has always been particularly helpful when I come to pick up my son in my wheelchair- always taking the time to make sure I've got his bag and belongings balanced before securing the baby- the extra care is really appreciated!

Review from Claire L (Mother of Child) published on 8 October 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy has been at the nursery for over 2 years now, he is non-verbal so things are difficult for us. A particular member of staff at the nursery is amazing, she has gone above and beyond for us, and I really don't know where I would be without her. Her guidance and help with our child's journey have been second to none, and I really don't think I would have known what to do. My child loves going to nursery, when he sees two particular members of staff his little face lights up, all the staff are amazing with my child, but he does not want to go to everyone. Another staff member is the one mainly with him on a daily basis now and she is also amazing, if I could take both these two staff members with me to the next school I would. Thank you so much for everything.

Review from Lucy W (Mother of Child) published on 1 October 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter absolutely loves the nursery, she settled so well and looks forward to going, all the staff are extremely friendly, caring and engaging with children and parents. My daughter has taken a warming to a particular member of staff, who is amazing with my daughter, she's taken the time to help her settle into the nursery and my daughter constantly mentions her at home. Enrolling into nursery was super easy and the management are always at hand to answer any questions. I am so pleased I chose Little Explorers for my daughter.

Reply from Hannah Harber, Parent Liaison Advisor at Little Explorers - Royal George Road Day Nursery & Pre-school

Hi - thank you for taking the time to leave this lovely review. It's wonderful to hear that your child has transitioned to nursery with the help of our team. We put a huge emphasis on that settling-in period, as it can be stressful for children (and parents!) to start at a new nursery, so it's really great to see that it is working.
