Overall Experience

My son has been going to this nursery since he turned 2. He will turn 4 in July and absolutely loves it! I was so nervous when he first started nursery but he settled in so well. All the staff are caring and get to know the children. My son talks about them all the time. They cannot do enough for the

child and parent. Their app is amazing and helps you track what your child has done throughout the day as well as what they've eaten. I will be sad when he leaves to go to school as I'm sure he will be. Would recommend to everyone!

Overall Experience

Our son has attended little owls Nursery since October 2022.
He loves going to nursery and is always so excited to see everyone when we say "are we going to see the ladies" he gets so excited! He is so settled there and all the staff are lovely, and you can tell they genuinely care about the children.

We can see the positive impact the nursery has had on his development. He has grown in confidence and his speech is coming on wonderfully. Thank you to you all! It’s not an easy job that you do it is one of the hardest..you do a fantastic job! We are lucky to have you all.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Little Owls Day Nursery for over two years and, in that time, she has always been very happy and well looked after. She absolutely adores the staff and is always excited to go in each day. I’m really pleased with the range of activities she gets to do, including swimming

and dancing, but what makes this place extra special are the extra little touches that make parents and our children feel valued. The management are very friendly, approachable and welcoming and has always accommodated us and our needs. I will be sorry when it is time for us to move on!

Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Little Rainbows 2 for eight months in the under-2s room and we couldn't be more pleased. He has absolutely loved going to nursery from his first day and I think it's down to how great the staff are with him. They seem to genuinely care about him, they are always really positive

and welcoming. They seem to make sure he has a fun time, but also learn and develop. They have also been flexible with his food requests. We were recommended this nursery by a friend and I can see why. We highly recommend it to other parents. I find it difficult to rate value for money as all nurseries are so expensive, but this one seems to be at a normal rate and they definitely provide value.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been going here for 2 years now, she loves going in every day and can't wait to go back if she has any time off. She has made some great friendships and sees the staff as her friends too!

They do lots of planned activities and spend time each day outdoors as well as plenty of free

playing time. Our little one chooses to spend most of hers looking after the dolls in the home bay and the staff get involved in her role play too!

We are given a thorough handover every day and always know what she's eaten. Staff take a genuine interest in her family life and always ask her about her weekends, holidays, siblings etc which also makes it feel like home for her.

Overall Experience

In September 2022 my daughter start to attend Little Rainbows 2. From the first day, I realised I made the best choice for my daughter. She is a child with special needs and I received all the support, help and advice from staff regarding her needs. Her accommodation was amazing. Thank you, the Little

Rainbows 2 team.

Overall Experience

My daughter absolutely loves this nursery! She has been here since being 12 months old as and will stay here until school age. As most parents, I was very careful which care provider I chose for my daughter, especially working over an hour away from the nursery 5 days a week, but she is so confident

and has learned so much over the years. The girls from management to the nursery assistants are so interactive with the children and nothing is ever too much, they give the same amount of time and effort to every child. I'm due another baby soon and he will be 100% attending this nursery also, 5 stars from us!!

Overall Experience

My little brother has attended this nursery since being 9 months old, he always comes home smiley and excited about how he’s got lots of friends. He has an amazing vocabulary for his age. Going from Nursery to Preschool was a challenge for him as he’s not used to a change in routine or having a change

of friends. Staff helped him adjust rapidly and now he loves Little Rainbows 2 Nursery.

My little boy absolutely loves this nursery, he loves his key worker and displays this by the way he smiles when he sees her, he has taken a liking to dinosaurs and they always accommodate this by adding them into playtime, he’s come on so well with his speech and he’s very independent.

Overall Experience

Since my daughter started here in November 2022 she has come on in leaps and bounds. She started walking a week after starting here. She is so happy and as soon as she knows where she is going she gets all excited and to the point now she goes in and doesn't look back at me. She eats so well here as

I was worried as she is a picky eater but now eats so well both at home and nursery now. The nursery staff are amazing and so friendly I have no worries at all about her being here and that was a big worry of mine as I suffer postnatal anxiety. All in all, I am super happy with the nursery, the staff and the food. Makes me feel so much at ease when she's happy to go and is still happy when she leaves. Thank you to all at Little Rainbows 2 Nursery.

My daughter has attended Little Rainbows 2 Nursery since October 2021, and she absolutely loves it. She enjoys her afternoons at nursery and is happy, which for me is one of the most important things. She has learnt so much and she continues to become more and more confident. I feel happy and confident

leaving her with the staff who are very nurturing and create lots of learning opportunities for the children who attend.

Overall Experience

Both my girls have attended Little Owls Day Nursery and both have enjoyed attending. The nursery has a very homely feel about it. They have a good variety of activities. The outdoor play is fantastic. The meal plans are over a 3-week period and again is a good variety. The online app is great for talking

to my child about what she has done in nursery. When they turn 3 they are able to go swimming with nursery, which again is a great advantage.
Both my girls are summer babies and Little Owls gave my eldest the best start to the education system.
The staff are warm and welcoming.

Our son started Little Owls in March and I am so glad we choose there. He is so happy and settled there and that tells us everything we need to know! The staff are lovely and he loves going into them in the morning. Even if he has been feeling a little offside the staff have been lovely with him. The

activities they do with the children are very good and we have noticed how this has brought on his development further already! Thank you so much we know he will be very happy here.

My daughter loves going to her preschool, they do lots of activities and the outdoor area is fabulous. She always mentions the staff like they're her best friends and is always excited to go. After organising a personal speech development plan in October she's come on leaps and bounds and is a successful

chatter box now!

My little boy has been with Little Owls since he was 7 months old and is a very clingy baby. He has grown so much under their care. He loves every minute of his days there.
The staff go above and beyond in their care and communication.
He gets so excited when he knows he’s going.
The activities

are varied and allow for his development.
The food is excellent (he’s a foodie) and offers so much variety.
I cannot recommend Little Owls enough. They are amazing!

My son started here in March 2022, he was 8 months old and since then he has come on leaps and bounds he loves it here and he loves the girls.
I was very nervous at first leaving him at nursery but he settled in well and the log app makes it easy to see what he's done throughout the day.

I would

highly recommend little Owls to anyone
