Situated on Ashchurch Road, Little Trees Tewkesbury is housed in an attractive, large, three-storey semi-detached building that has been thoughtfully designed and resourced to create a home-like atmosphere for the children in its care. The nursery features dedicated, bright, and airy spaces for each age group, providing areas for both play and rest.

The well-equipped playrooms and children's bathrooms promote growing independence, while the large garden offers a secure outdoor play area filled with engaging activities in a natural setting. Children are cared for in mixed-gender age groups, with opportunities throughout the day to interact with both older and younger peers.

The primary language used in the nursery is English, with additional languages incorporated as needed to support children for whom English is an additional language. A large car park is located directly outside the nursery, ensuring a safe and convenient drop-off for families.

The nursery operates Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM (excluding bank holidays) and is open 52 weeks a year, with a capacity of up to 56 children at any time.

Review from Vicki H (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son joined this nursery at two, moving from a sister setting, and it has exceeded our high expectations. The staff are fantastic, and his key person is wonderful. He has additional hearing needs, and the nursery has been proactive in supporting him, with our speech therapist praising their approach.
His dietary requirements are well managed by the lovely on-site chef. The managers run the nursery brilliantly, creating a warm, structured and educational environment. Activities are thoughtfully planned, with a great balance of play and learning. The app is regularly updated with meals, naps, and photos, and communication is excellent. We also love the trips to the park and visits from the children's hairdresser. Our son adores nursery and asks for his favourite practitioners by name. Parking can be a little tight at times, but it's rarely an issue. Overall, an outstanding nursery that we couldn't recommend more highly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son is so happy at Little Trees Tewkesbury. He marches out of our house so excited to be going to nursery, saying "happy" when we ask.
We are so pleased we moved him to Little Trees. From our first meeting with the staff, before it had opened, we knew we were making the right choice. Every single
member of staff we have met are 100% committed to providing the best experience for the children. We are promptly kept informed of anything through the app during the day.
We love the activities that they get up to - always so creative and fun but with learning of new skills at the core. In all honesty my son would be happy playing in the lovely outside space all day!
It is wonderful that they now have their on-site chef so our son is getting to eat lots of fresh and tasty food.
Thank you to every single member of staff at Little Trees for taking such good care of our boy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We moved our child to this nursery from a different Little Trees nursery as this is closer to where we live. Our experience of the Dean Close Little Trees nurseries has always been really positive. We especially love Little Trees Tewkesbury, where he has been since the setting opened.
Every morning,
my child runs in with a smile on his face excited to be there. The management and staff are wonderful: they have a genuine passion and care brilliantly for the children. I go to work confident that my child will have a great day and that he will be really well looked after.
My child is also doing well academically and enjoys the challenges that the nursery offers. They have a fantastic range of resources and toys for him to play with.
Communication via the app and on collection is also excellent. I love to see the daily photos and hear about his day.
I cannot recommend this wonderful nursery highly enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Little Trees is fantastic and our son is thriving since he joined. The staff are really caring and pay a lot of attention to each child, understanding their likes and dislikes and adapting to meet their needs which really makes it feel like he's not just a number. When he walks in the morning, he's
simply so happy to see the carers, which is really lovely to see as they are creating a strong bond together.
His language is also developing very fast and constantly comes back home saying new words and singing new songs, which shows how rich the environment is.
We are extremely happy and feel totally at ease knowing he's being well looked after - Couldn't recommend enough!
Reply from Karen Green, Regional Manager at Little Trees Day Nursery Tewkesbury
Thank you so much for your kind words. It really does mean a lot to the staff.

Review from A K (Mother of Child) published on 8 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Little Trees Nursery have been absolutely amazing with my son.
He went from a childminding setting into a nursery setting at around a year and a half and it is honestly the best thing I have done for us a family.
I was worried about the long days but he just has the best time there, playing with
friends, learning new things and seeing his favourite staff members.
The app is great for checking in throughout the day and we get to see a post at the end of each day detailing what the child re have been up to, along with seeing photos of their activities.
The food they offer the children is brilliant and my son seems to be trying things he refuses at home, which is a bonus.
The staff are so welcoming to both parents and children and nothing is ever too much trouble.
Luckily my son still has a couple of years at Little Trees Nursery before he goes to school and we are so excited to continue watching him grow in this setting.
We appreciate all your hard work !

We have never felt so welcomed into a nursery before, the staff are all so lovely and we can tell they are experienced in what they do. Especially with having a child with additional needs and non verbal, they are honestly so supportive, understanding and caring. It's made us feel at ease knowing he
will get the support he needs to help him with his development. Thank you to all the staff at Little Trees Tewkesbury

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.718)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.718) out of 10 for Little Trees Day Nursery Tewkesbury 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 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 5.000 for Little Trees Day Nursery Tewkesbury is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 5
  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 4.718 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Trees Day Nursery Tewkesbury is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 55 number of registered child places is 11. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 11 = 0.818
  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.
