15 October 2025
Our daughter has been attending Little Cherubs Sydenham since she was 11 months old in the baby room. She absolutely loves attending and is now in Little Learners. She runs in each day, the staff are like family. The other children are lovely and she genuinely looks forward to going. They settle them well with their transitions to new rooms. Lots of varied activities and external people come in for certain specialist activities like Hartbeeps weekly and yoga etc. Very happy - it's a great nursery and management are supportive and communicate well.

Our daughter started at Little Cherubs at 11 months old and has just graduated to Reception. We couldn't have asked for a better place. The facilities are great, meals are healthy and varied, but what truly sets it apart is the staff-they genuinely care about each child's wellbeing. Coming from a multilingual home, we were amazed at how beautifully her language and social skills developed. She loved going every day, and we've built lasting friendships with other families-something the nursery actively encouraged. It really felt like a small, supportive community. Honestly, we don't have anything negative to say-though a bigger outdoor space would be a nice addition. Compared to the experiences of friends with other nurseries, we feel incredibly lucky. We'll miss Little Cherubs deeply and are so grateful for the incredible start they gave our daughter.

We can't thank the team at Little Cherubs enough for the care and support they've shown our son. He had a bit of a bumpy start settling in, but the staff were incredibly patient, kind and understanding throughout the process. Their warmth and dedication made all the difference, and now he absolutely loves going in every day and they helped him get out of his shell. It's clear how much they care about each child, they go above and beyond to make sure every little one feels safe, nurtured and included. We're so grateful for everything they've done for our little one.

Lovely family orientated nursery, staff are caring and helped my little one settle in well when he started at 8 months old. They make you feel that your child is safe, & staff are committed , great & end of day feedback too. Their variety of foods for the children are amazing. Daily feedback on app is great too & daily activities. Thank you for always being kind to my son.

Great nursery, fantastic staff, my kid absolutely loves it! Our child has been attending Little Cherubs for 18 months, and he enjoys it so much. All of the staff are brilliant with the children, and the range of activities and events they organise is pretty amazing. We are able to keep up to date on food/sleep/activities via the app and love getting pictures through of our little one enjoying his activities. We strongly believe that attending nursery has positively contributed to our child's development in terms of language and social skills.

Our girls have both loved Little Cherubs and our son will start there in the summer. The staff are so lovely and kind and the kids always come out happy and chatting about their day. Couldn't recommend more.

An extremely amazing environment. The staff are very attentive and warm. My daughter has been attending since she was 8 months and enjoys attending everyday. Highly recommended to all parents/ carers.

Handling my little one to the team in Tiny tots August 2024 was something i wasn't prepared for as a first time mum. But the comfort offer by the team leader in Tiny tots and the other team/staff in general has been and continue to be exceptional. As a new parent transitioning into a nursery setting, comforting and reassuring words is just what i needed and Little Cherubs certainly offered this! The Tiny tots team goes out of their way daily to ensure myself and my little one connect through the app and also verbally during drop off and pick up time which i very much appreciate. And lastly as a mum i feel relax dropping my little one there in a safe and secured environment.. I wouldn't have ask for any better for him.

Lovely setting with very friendly staff members who truly care. The staff prepare lots of stimulating activities throughout the day and the nursery invests in having external providers deliver a range of sessions. My child is happy here and loves coming to nursery. I am an extremely happy parent.

We couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough. Our boy joined when he was just 18 months old and will be leaving this week as a kind, confident 4-year-old kid who is set up and so excited for big school. Over the years the fabulous team have supported us through dropping naps, toilet training and the separation anxiety phases - calling us up after tough drop-offs to reassure us that he was fine (when we weren't!). They have such a fun approach to learning and endless creativity across both daily activities and the big events they have organised over the years. The communication is fantastic and the management team couldn't be more friendly. We have never felt the need to worry about his safety or happiness. And most importantly our son has loved his time there!

Our 3-year-old son has been at Little Cherubs since he was 10 months old, we have always been happy with our choice to send him here, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone. Since the early days of his transition away from spending all his time with us, to navigating some challenging behaviours of toddlerhood, I have always felt that he (and I) have been well supported by the staff. The variety of food is brilliant, and the activities - both external people coming in and what they plan for them - are excellent, I always feel confident that his development is being well supported. We've had positive experiences with all the staff members we have dealt with, and his safety and security have never been in question. Thanks to all the team!

Our son has been attending Little Cherubs since he was a baby (he's now about to move up to the preschool room) and we're very happy to have chosen this nursery for him. The staff are caring and helpful, they get to know the children well and support them in their development as they progress through the different age groups. Our son is clearly happy and engaged at nursery and he loves the weekly Yoga, Mandarin and Spanish classes.
23 August 2024
Our experience of Little Cherubs has been nothing short of exceptional. The staff are so engaged, caring and helpful. Thanks to this care and attention, our child is thriving socially and we are amazed by her general development during her time in the Little Learners room and in Pre-School. The staff handled this transition between classes brilliantly and were instrumental in helping our child to become fully potty trained at the same time. This is not to mention the simple fact that our child is so happy there. I couldn't recommend Little Cherubs highly enough.

My daughter had a fabulous time here at Little Cherubs. Any concerns I had were dealt with quickly and we were made very comfortable. My daughter was very nervous as she isn't great around big groups but always come out of nursery happy and with a big smile on her face.
21 March 2024
We were recommended Little Cherubs by a friend and it has not disappointed, my son joined in June 2023 and is now in Little Learners and he absolutely loves it and settled in so quickly. The staff are really caring and approachable, you feel like you are leaving your child in safe hands. I can see in my son's development that he is getting the right support and care that he needs. We are glad to have found a nursery that we love and that my son loves.

My child has been at Little Cherubs Nursery & Preschool almost six months and loves it there. The staff are caring, kind and straightforward. They have the most important job in the world, as far as I am concerned, so it's crucial that we have trust in them and have developed good relationships. The nursery itself is welcoming and fun. On-site cook means food is always fresh, nutritious and varied. The menu is phenomenal! The nursery arranges lots of activities for parents including first aid training which was super useful. We visited other nurseries in the area and we knew straight away that Little Cherubs was the right one for us. We are very grateful to have found them.

If you’re looking for a great start/strong foundation for your child, I’ll say this is the nursery to go to. I definitely recommend. I had a great experience with my son and now my daughter. They are doing a great and amazing job. My daughter was born during Covid and I was so worried about how she was going to cope with being at a nursery but believe me when I say after a month her interaction with other children was amazing, her learning skills were excellent. The other great thing about Little Cherubs Nursery & Preschool is the manager, she is so understanding and very much approachable. Talk of the staff, they are so friendly, respectful and helpful to parents. Am totally happy and appreciative of the nursery.

My son joined Little Cherubs Sydenham in the Baby room at the start of the year and we couldn’t be happier with the care he receives there and how he has settled in. Right from Day 1 the staff have been so lovely, really getting to know him, ensuring he is happy at nursery. I have been really impressed at how caring all the staff are and how they go above and beyond to do so many lovely activities with the children. It is so reassuring knowing he is so well looked after and that he enjoys going to nursery so much.

The staff are caring and amazing, they look after the children like their own. Very informative with progresses and also reach/inform should changes need to be made. My son has been going to the nursery for 3 years and every day he looks forward to going into nursery.

What a delightful nursery! Our little one settled in so quickly and clearly loves it there. The staff are very switched on, diligent and enthusiastic in their roles, always on the lookout for the varying needs of the children. The food is nutritious and the range is great, and my little one has been putting on very healthy weight since joining. There's clearly also proper effort by the team/management to come up with thoughtful and creative ways to engage the children in all sorts of ways. Our keyworker, who is just superb!) and the others in my son's room are all just terrific. Having been part of other settings that don't necessarily have the consistency and quality that we've seen here, we're just very relieved to have found a nursery like this one.
