Little Dragons Nursery
from J A (Father of Child) published on 27 March 2025

Overall Experience

A wonderful, nursery filled with lovely people. From day one, they made us feel completely at ease, and more importantly, they made our daughter feel safe and happy. Every single member of the team is kind, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They don't just look after children;

they nurture them, encourage them, and help them grow. One has even become our daughter's regular babysitter which is a delightful bonus for us (and our daughter).
Our daughter thrived at Little Dragons and came home every day with new skills, new stories, and a huge smile on her face. The activities are engaging, the environment is warm and welcoming, and communication with parents is excellent. We always felt informed, involved, and reassured.

The only reason we left is because we moved out of the area-if we hadn't, she'd still be there without question. If you're lucky enough to live nearby and are considering sending your child here, do it. You won't regret it.

Overall Experience

This is my second child I'm sending to little dragons.
I cannot express enough at how lovely and caring all the staff are with me and my children.
I love the fact that some of the staff are still there from when I sent my first child 8 years ago.
They take extra care to insure the nursery is bright

and welcoming, with lots of activities for the children. I would highly recommend little dragons to anyone looking for a lovely team who treats their children like their own.

Reply from Lee Owen-Macleod, Nursery Area Manager at Little Dragons Nursery

Thank you for your valuable feedback. The team at Little Dragons enjoy welcoming siblings to the nursery and retaining families. They pride themselves on the high standards of care and education they offer the children. All staff enjoy their roles and ensure that the nursery maintains the 'home from home' environment that they have worked so hard to achieve. The team look forward to caring for your child in the years to come.

Jack in the Box Nursery

Overall Experience

Initially, my oldest daughter started off with Jack in the box nursery in 2023 they were very welcoming and very patient with her. She was a bit tentative to begin with, but they made her feel at ease through the initial few weeks. After the success of my eldest Who is now three years old a few months

ago we put our youngest who is one years old into the nursery this is a testament to the experience of our eldest child and the service and care we have received. I would recommend Jack-in-the-Box to all those in the local area.

Reply from Lee Owen-Macleod, Nursery Area Manager at Jack in the Box Nursery

Thank you for your valuable feedback and for choosing Jack in the Box to provide quality care and education for your children. The team support all children when they start the nursery and ensure that they feel safe, secure and happy in the environment. We are pleased to hear families return to the nursery with their 2nd or 3rd child due to their positive experience. We look forward to contributing towards both of your children's learning and development in the years to come.

Overall Experience

Jack in the box nursery is amazing in terms of the care which they give to my son. We were very unsure how things will go as my son was moving from child minder to nursery but everything was great and in few days he got settled the nursery very well. I would also like to appreciate the nursery team

for their efforts in making friendly environment for my son. They both are rockstars. Special thanks to his Nursery Practitioner who is my son's favourite.

Reply from Katie Baker, Nursery Business Administrator at Jack in the Box Nursery

Overall Experience

Both my daughters attend this nursery, I am very happy with their development and overall happiness. The elder of the two has a strong bond with her key worker and it's reassuring to know she's cared for beyond the standard. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking to send their little ones

in.

It's a Berkshire Healthcare nursery which provides additional assurance to the standards they keep - It's always clean and tidy (somehow!).

There's a range of staff that have been consistently there, all of which are incredibly engaging. I have not seen much of a revolving door other than Maternity leave which is positive. The nursery manager is such an asset, always responsive and present.

The fee rates are competitive, and despite slight increases in the last 2 years, I have not thought for a moment to look elsewhere.

5 stars for the whole team from me.

Reply from Katie Baker, Nursery Business Administrator at Jack in the Box Nursery

Thank you very much for your review. It is a pleasure to care for your daughters and we're pleased to hear how happy your family are with Jack In The Box.

My child just started nursery in January and so far I am happy with everything. The team is friendly and caring. They are assessing how the child is settling and what progress they are and also a great thing is that they give you feedback on how the child did for the day. They set the goals for the

child in agreement with the parent and they try to complete children's milestones by guiding them.

Reply from Katie Baker, Nursery Business Administrator at Jack in the Box Nursery

Thank you very much for your 5 star review. It's lovely to hear how happy you are with the service and care offered by the Jack In The Box team, both to you and your child. It has been a pleasure to care for your child and to watch her settling into nursery life.

Overall Experience

Our daughter started at Kiddies Cabin only 6 weeks ago, so this is very much an initial thoughts review. I was nervous about her starting somewhere new and taking time to settle, but this hasn't been the case at all. She loves Kiddies Cabin and settled in straight away. The facilities are superb, she

loves the outdoor space and the toys (most of all the scooters) and there is a huge range of activities to keep her occupied.
She also loves the staff, she can't wait to get to nursery and see her care team every morning, and I feel that she is in the very best of hands. The staff all seem really caring and also challenge the children to learn and develop in their play.
We're all really happy with every aspect of Kiddies Cabin so far and look forward to our daughter continuing her journey there.

Reply from Katie Baker, Nursery Business Administrator at Kiddies' Cabin Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your 5 star review. We are very pleased that O has settled into nursery life at Kiddies' Cabin so well and that she's enjoying the scooters!

Incredible nursery with the loveliest caring staff.
It's very rare to find a setting that loves and looks after your child as family and that's just what Little Dragons did for our son.
Nothing was too much when we asked and they were perfect when ensuring our son's dietary requirements were met.

He is reaching all of his developmental milestones and that is down to the professionalism of the staff there.

Overall Experience

My son joined Jack in the Box when he was just 11 months old and is sadly leaving after 2 and a half years. The EYFS environment of the nursery has been invaluable in his early development. As first time parents, it was scary to send our baby to a nursery, but the baby room staff were amazing in putting

our minds at ease, special mention to one staff member in particular, as she was the first ever person we talked to and finalised our decision of enrolling. It has been smooth ever since, our son loves going here and has made special friendships with his teachers and classmates. All the nursery staff works very hard all day with kids, and when the parents come to pick up, they make sure the parents also are emotionally taken care of, which is one of the best things here.

Overall Experience

Our daughter started at Kiddies Cabin in September as we moved to the area from London. It's been a wonderful experience and I can't praise the team there enough as they have supported her to settle in. She loves nursery, talks about it all the time, the carers, her new friends, the activities they

get up to. We're so grateful, it's made our move a much easier process for all involved! The facilities are great, with lovely outside spaces, the nursery is super professional but also kind and caring, they challenge the toddlers and invest in interesting things for them to do. We feel confident that our daughter is getting the best development opportunities to set her up for pre-school, but also that she's having a lot of fun.

My son has recently started at Kiddies Cabin and we've been really happy with the support from staff, for both him and us as parents. Staff are really communicative and caring, and (although he still cries at drop-off time) they say he's really enjoying it when he's there! So far I would, and have,

recommended the nursery to friends.

Overall Experience

We were confident from our first visit that this nursery would be a great fit for us so were pleased when we were finally offered a place after a long wait on the waiting list (a testament really to how desirable the nursery is!) Our children have settled in really well and the staff members couldn't

have been more lovely and supportive and always have the best interests of the children in mind. It was a big step to hand our children over to a childcare setting for the first time but we really do feel they are in the safest of hands. The nursery itself is great quite rustic in feel (in a good way!) but with good facilities and lots of focus on learning and development. The garden was a big selling point to us and we love that the children are able to access the outdoors throughout the year and in all weathers! The kids are always happy and tired at the end of the day which is a great sign. Overall we are really pleased with Kiddies' Cabin and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

Like every parent, leaving their child in a nursery for the first time, I was very nervous, upset, and definitely had trust issues. The nursery staff made the induction and onboarding process really good and in a very professional matter. I had the chance to spend time in the green room and see where

my boy would reside.
Everyone is friendly, smiley and my child is happy there. I would highly recommend Little Dragons.

We will pass your comments on to our staff team who work hard to build relationships with each individual child and their family.
