Our experience of this nursery has been fantastic, made possible by the excellent team of staff. The care provided is exceptional and the learning and development our son is showing is down to them. While the layout of the site limits what can be done with their outside space this doesn't restrict time
spent outside with some indigenous activities! Communication and help from the team has always been superb, in all 3 rooms. I'd have no hesitation recommending this nursery. Thank you.
Reply from Hannah, Marketing Business Partner at Little Houghton Day Nursery
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad to hear that your son is thriving and that you've had such a positive experience with our team. We love making the most of our outdoor time with creative activities, and it's great to know you appreciate it. Your kind words and recommendation mean so much to us!

I am always so impressed with this nursery. I know that every child's needs are always catered for & the kids are looked after so well. The activities are always so well thought-out and vary through the week. There's a focus on development & I can see they're trying to get my son ready for his transition
to school in September. The menu is great & the children are fed really well. I always like how much they encourage independence, The pre-preschoolers collect their plates & cutlery & water. I would recommend this nursery to anyone, the staff are so lovely.

My son moved nurseries so has been at Little Houghton for 6 months now. The staff have been amazing at helping him to settle in. I love how they keep building their independence at meal times with putting plates away etc & helping themselves to water. Always kept up to date with what he'es done in the
day & good feedback given

Initially, my son was upset about attending nursery, leaving his mum and dad would bring tears. Over the months and years the staff have helped him and now he never wants to leave. He's made some great friends at nursery. It's going to be tough when he goes to "Big school"

Our son has been coming to the nursery for just over a year and we have seen his confidence and personality develop so much! He often talks about all the staff when at home and always looks forward to going in to nursery. He loves going for walks around the village and his trips to the park! The activities
they provide are well thought out and engaging and he always has lots to talk about when we pick him up. The Friday Teddy tennis club is such a nice touch, he loves showing us his stickers. The communication on the app is great and honestly can't fault anything! Would definitely recommend!

The most wonderful nursery! I've been a parent of children who have attended this nursery since 2017. So a very long time now, and I have seen huge significant changes in that timespan but the one thing that always remains the most is the loving family orientated approach all staff members have with
the children and also us parents/caregivers.
All the staff work tirelessly to give all the children under their care the best possible start in life and all the love and dedication. My children certainly have thrived and are thriving, and it's all down to their early years experience which this nursery does extremely well. My son who started in September was my one child who struggled the most and I was so close to pulling him out as I didn't think he'd ever settle, but the manager and staff spent a lot of time reassuring me and telling me he would, some children just take that bit longer to settle in. All staff there are absolutely fantastic! Trust them implicitly! Just love them all!

My daughter has been at the nursery for nearly 4 months now. She has settled in very well. As with most children starting nursery this was a new experience for her with a few nervy tears. The staff in the baby room have made the experience as easy and relaxed as possible. They answer the door with a
warm welcoming smile which puts you at ease. They greet my daughter like one of their own and wrap her up in lots of cuddles. Each day they do lots of different activities which are posted on the app. The staff make time on drop off and pick up to see how things are and give feedback on the day which I very much appreciate. Thank you to all the lovely ladies in the baby room.

that he had to continue irrespective. Since then, he has found a second home and a second family.
The staff are so friendly, warm, caring and nice and the moment our son steps into the nursery, he practically forgets about us and we do not exist to him anymore! He is in his "home"!
The manager and the team are so flexible and they gave us invaluable support during the birth of our son's little sister in November 2024 and we can't wait to hand her over to them as well.

We could not be happier with the nursery. All the staff work incredibly hard to make this setting a fun, safe, caring & highly engaging place for our child. We're always greeted with a welcoming & cheerful smile and our child is always very happy to be dropped off, knowing she will have an exciting
day ahead. We are kept up to speed with activities during the day via the app and all additional communication, if required (illness, bumps, etc), is friendly & polite. The nursery is very well managed & is brilliant at integrating structured learning activities & varied experiences (e.g outdoor play/walks) into the daily routine. All staff in the room are clearly dedicated professionals, who make very strong genuine connections with the kids. The nursery is always willing to accommodate our needs, such as shortened nap times or specific dietary requirements. Our child has thrived here - we are incredibly thankful to the nursery and all the staff. You're all superstars!
