Our son has been attending for a month now and we couldn't be more pleased with our choice of nursery for him. Everyone we have met has made such a special effort to help him settle in well and help the transition of what could have been a difficult time. The team in the Fledglings room are
incredibly kind and patient. The nursery host events & keep you informed which has helped us already feel like part of the community and shows their genuine care and compassion for what they do. Couldn't recommend Little Robins enough!

Upon returning to work after maternity leave I was nervous as it is my first child. Having visited several other nurseries in the area, this was the one that blew us away from the moment we came to visit when our son wasn't even born.
We immediately signed him up and haven't regretted a thing. The
initial start was hard (as it would be anywhere for any parent) but we knew he was safe, cared for and would flourish and we weren't wrong.
6 months on and he's coming on in leaps and bounds and actually reaching out for the room staff when we arrive in the morning.
Thank you for all your hard work, we do appreciate it.

Our daughter joined Bobbins Nursery in April 2025 after leaving her childminder who only had 4 children. This was a big change for our daughter one we were anxious about as she didn't deal well with being left without us. She has grown leaps and bounds since joining Bobbins and we couldn't be
happier with the nursery. The learning they cover, the friends she has made and the teachers / carers are all absolutely incredible. Can only speak highly of this nursery!
24 June 2025
This is the most wonderful nursery setting. My daughter has been attending the Bobbins (pre-school room) since March having moved from another setting, and there really is no comparison!
The staff are warm and welcoming, and the range of lessons and activities is second-to-none.
There is a high
level of discipline but it is delivered with such kindness, care and overall enjoyment that the children demonstrate high levels of respect for their teachers whilst having the most wonderful time.
The facilities and equipment are great and always improving/being added to.
My little girl has blossomed since she came here, grown in confidence and learnt so much.
I can't recommend Little Robins Nursery enough.

As a parent you always want what is best for your child. Put simply, sunninghill nursery is it.
The facilities for the children are just the starting point. The staff are all amazing. My daughter adores each of the staff and enjoys going in every day.
We had high hopes for the nursery and every
one of those has not only been met, but bettered.

Nursery staff have been fantastic. My little one enjoys being there. Staff are great at reassuring the little ones and staff and will make contact if they have any concerns. Staff are also very caring, so glad I managed to get my little one a space here.

A lovely and welcoming setting! All the staff are very helpful, friendly and attentive. My little boy is settling in well and the staff have been very caring and patient with this settling-in period. Thank you.

My little son who will be 3 soon has started to attend this nursery full time since April 2024. I just want to say that it is such a beautiful environment for him to grow, develop, and explore new things! Everyone is very lovely and they see potential in each child and help them develop. He just
simply loves the outdoor activities, exploring the large garden, he loves the lady gardener whom they meet every week and do gardening. Also, they have lots of indoor activities as well, all aimed to meet the needs of our little ones.
Such a great nursery!
I feel safe leaving my child in the morning as I know everyone is taking good care of him and he is happy there.
25 October 2024
Helpful and friendly staff. Excellent location. Overall very happy with everything we have seen so far.
Our son enjoys going in and despite a few tears, goes towards the staff for comfort when we drop him off.
Very happy 2-year-old on pick up, and always has a thorough rundown of his day on
collection.

Our son has attended Little Robbins for around 8 weeks now. The staff are really attentive and caring, and there is so much for him to do. They take the children outside every day and we receive regular updates and pictures. The food is varied and nutritious and they cater for his dairy allergy
without any issue. We are really happy with the nursery and our son loves it!
17 June 2024
Such a warm and inviting environment, everyone is very encouraging, supportive and friendly to both pupils and parents/carers and one another,
There is a really big family feeling which is so important to know your little ones will be cared for lovingly with nurturing staff. The curriculum offers a
vast rich abundance of subjects to keep everyone's minds engaged and growing into wonderful young adults. Couldn't recommend more.

Our 2.5-year-old daughter has been attending Little Robins Nursery at Sunninghill Prep School for nearly two months, and we are thrilled with the progress she's made in such a short time. We've observed significant improvements in her language and vocabulary, a testament to the care and attention
the teachers provide. The variety of activities offered at Little Robins is exceedingly impressive for a nursery. Specialist teachers provide music and PE lessons. Dedicated and caring staff and excellent facilities aside, what truly impresses us is the open, transparent, and regular communication between the teachers and parents. We felt warmly welcomed from day one and receive daily updates, both in person and through dedicated apps, keeping us informed about our daughter's activities and progress. We wholeheartedly recommend Little Robins Nursery at Sunninghill and look forward to watching our daughter grow and develop in this nurturing environment.

Our boy absolutely loves the nursery and chats happily about his learning adventures both indoors and outside on the beautiful grounds or on a trip to the local library and parks. The activities are varied, inspiring and fun, set within a very safe and nurturing environment. All the nursery and
reception staff are excellent and friendly; the children in both classes integrate well together in afternoons occasionally for Let’s Explore which our boy really enjoys. We’ve noticed a boost in his confidence, great friendships forming and lots of compassion. We highly recommend the Nursery at Sunninghill, it is a really lovely springboard to school life.

My daughter has been attending Sunninghill Nursery since 2 years 9 months and her journey so far has been wonderful. We are constantly impressed by the dedication shown by the teachers and the effort the nursery and reception team put into the well-being, enrichment and development of the children.
We always feel reassured that she is in excellent and safe hands when dropping her off and know she will have an enjoyable day - this is always confirmed at the end of the day by her smiley and happy face.
The nursery has a warm and homely feel to it and the school grounds and facilities are excellent. We love that nursery and reception share learning time together as this would allow for a seamless transition later on. The school has a wonderful family-centred ethos and really takes a holistic approach to providing a well-rounded education. My daughter loves attending nursery and we can't praise both the nursery and reception staff enough!

Sunninghill Nursery is amazing and I can’t recommend them enough. From day one they have made us feel very welcome and our son settled into nursery so quickly. He loves coming in every day and I always find him happy at the end of the day which is absolutely down to the care, attention and focus on
him. The range of activities the children are involved in is excellent and I have always found the nursery staff to be very communicative and the admin team so efficient. Every morning and afternoon you are greeted with smiling faces and people here really do seem to love their jobs. You do feel you are part of a very big family here. Sunninghill is a very special place.

My son has attended Sunninghill Nursery and absolutely loves it. The staff are so kind, caring and nurturing - just wonderful!
The nursery is within school grounds but has its own separate entrance and gated outdoor play area. We really like the safety this provides.
The children have access to
the school facilities, including the swimming pool, large private grounds and play area to run around in.
There are many enrichment activities and lessons like music and gardening. The school head gardener is just fantastic, and the children learn so much from her.
It has been great to see our son flourish in nursery, and it really is owing to the wonderful teachers.
We would highly recommend Sunninghill Nursery.

We transferred our son to Sunninghill in October 2022 after having a bad experience with another local nursery. He loved Sunninghill from day one, and we could not be happier with our decision. Since then, he has developed so much in all aspects. The staff is so lovely and caring and made his time
in the nursery extremely pleasant. We would recommend Sunninghill to anyone, and some of our friends have started here already. Don't hesitate if you want to join.
20 December 2023
I cannot praise Sunninghill Nursery enough. Our daughter attended and absolutely loved it. The staff are so welcoming and supportive and the children thrive. I was quite apprehensive with her starting nursery but the staff are so understanding and the settling-in process is very adaptable, I was so
happy to leave her with complete confidence knowing she was in extremely safe hands. The nursery is open-plan and has a lovely play area and self-contained garden. The children enjoy a huge range of engaging developmental activities and are included in whole-school productions. The “family” ethos of the school is shown through all the year groups and nursery are a huge part of this. The regular updates through the app with photos of activities they have participated in give you a lovely insight into their day.
Such a wonderful entry to the “schooling” experience. Without doubt, the best decision we’ve made.
19 December 2023
We decided to relocate from London to Dorchester and enrolled my son into Sunninghill as we relocated. My son has been loving it! Every staff member has been so welcoming and the whole community is so warm and friendly. Best decision.
14 December 2023
A wonderful nursery in a picturesque setting. The staff are caring and engaging. The children are given a broad education and are regularly taken on trips outside the school grounds. Highly recommended!
