Overall Experience

My son has been attending Little Rascals since he was 9 months old, and I couldn't be more pleased with the care and support he's received. The staff are truly exceptional-warm, attentive, and always going above and beyond to ensure every child feels safe, valued, and happy. They've created a nurturing

environment that fosters my son's development and confidence, while also maintaining open communication with us as parents. It's clear that the team at Little Rascals genuinely loves what they do, and I'm so grateful for the positive impact they've had on my son's early years.

Review of
Oaklands Day Nursery
from Claudia B (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2025

Overall Experience

Our daughter started at Oaklands in January 2025. She was attending a childminder full-time before this and so we were worried what the transition would be like for her doing a couple of days at nursery. All I can say is that the staff and especially our daughter's keyworker completely exceeded our

expectations. The love, tenderness and support they show our daughter but also us as parents has been wonderful! Our daughter absolutely loves it at Oaklands and runs through the door without looking back to say goodbye at drop-off...what every parent wishes for, a home away from home for their little one. The staff are incredibly friendly, quick to support and are extremely caring and attentive to the children, making them feel valued. The garden is a favourite for my daughter as she loves being outside exploring and playing in the large space. The food is also a highlight for us, healthy and wholesome meals. Really couldn't recommend Oaklands enough to parents!

Reply from Inga Page, Manager at Oaklands Day Nursery

Thank you for your lovely words about the staff and Oaklands. Our staff pride themselves in settling the whole family in to nursery, through regular updates and hand overs in the evening. Oaklands children love to learn outside in our large garden.

Overall Experience

We have had our mind and hearts at rest since finding Little Rascals Nursery for our daughter. It was difficult to know which nursery to enrol your child especially as first time parents but the all the staff at this nursery gave us all that every parent needs for their wards to be well taken care of.

Starting from they taking their time to talk us through the systems and structures in place to care for all children's needs and early education as well as most importantly their wellbeing with their variety of meals. We like the fact that they took time to come home and assess the child to see their individual needs and see how best they can help.
We have seen the growth and many milestones our daughter is reached through their dedication and transparent communication with us the parents.
With brighter star nursery (Little Rascals nursery) your know your ward/child is in good hands at the right time to aid in their personal, social and academic development.
Thank you Little Rascals!

Overall Experience

My second daughter is currently attending Little Rascals Nursery (my first daughter has just moved into pre-prep Rascals), I really rate this nursery and have made so many recommendations to friends. The staff at Little Rascals are fantastic, they are so caring and thoughtful to our girls. My daughter

cried on drop off for a week but then quickly recognised she loved coming and now runs into the breakfast room. They take the time to make all the special cards for all the occasions even my husband's birthday. My daughter has the best time in the nursery and has such special relationships with all the nursery staff.
The management of Little Rascal is super, the manager has currently taken over the running of the nursery. She is so passionate about the nursery and the happiness of the children. The Christmas party was such a success and all parents and babies had a great time.
My daughter is advanced for her age, which management recognised and spoke to me about moving her up a room to older kids.

Overall Experience

We have been delighted with the care that Oakland has provided our daughter. The nursery came recommended by a number of neighbours and when we looked around we especially loved the size of the garden.
Our daughter found settling in quite challenging and the staff and management couldn't have been

more caring to her and reassuring to us. Her key workers really did go above and beyond and we are extremely grateful for this. You can really tell the staff care about the children's happiness and development and we definitely recommend the nursery to other parents.

Reply from Inga Page, Manager at Oaklands Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It's so great to hear we are being recommended and Oaklands parents feel they are part of our family.

We are really happy with the nursery, the staff made it so easy for our 12-month-old to settle.

It always feels like he had a lovely day, he's happy and in a good mood when collecting him.
We are always up to date with everything happening with him during

the day, which we find quite helpful!

A great nursery! Both my little girls go there and I am so happy with the staff, the food and the activities they do. I've really noticed how my oldest has grown into a fun, independent and secure little girl and I feel I owe that a lot to the nursery staff. She has also made some lovely friends. I

would highly recommend this nursery!

Overall Experience

Little Rascals is an outstanding nursery that clearly provides young children with an environment that is welcoming and nurturing. During the settling-in period, the staff were attentive to my daughter's needs and really took the time to get to know her, and as a result of this my daughter was able

to settle in without any problems. My daughter loves attending nursery, and I feel the setting really gives the feel of a home-to-home experience. In such a short amount of time in attending Little Rascals my daughter is thriving and her confidence has come on in leaps and bounds, and I only have the staff and their outgoing and caring personalities to thank for this. I receive regular updates on my daughter's learning and development, which clearly reflects the amount of time the staff dedicated to the children providing them with a wide variety of engaging activities which meet their age and stage of development.
I highly recommend Little Rascals Nursery.

Little Rascals Pre-Prep
from Victoria J (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2025

Overall Experience

My daughter is so happy attending Little Rascals Pre-prep. The staff are absolutely brilliant. Attentive, kind, caring and I'm always impressed by the different activities they have ready for them each morning. The staff really understand my daughter and she has a great connection with them. Developmentally

my daughter is thriving and I do think the nursery environment is a contributing factor as to why her communication and social skills are developing so well. She is always so excited to see her friends and tells me lots about her day and what they get up to. We couldn't be happier with the choice of nursery we made and I would highly recommend this setting.

Reply from Bryony Chapman Manager, Manager at Little Rascals Pre-Prep

Thank you so much for your kind words. We pride ourselves on the connections our team build with the children and families. We are so pleased your daughter is thriving with us.

We're so happy we chose Oaklands to send our son. The facilities are great and he loves going in the garden rain or shine. But the main thing is that the staff are just fantastic, it's obvious they adore our son and he loves them too, so it really does feel like you're leaving them with family. Couldn't

recommend them enough.

My son attends Little Rascals Pre-Prep in Tunbridge Wells (having previously attended the nursery) and we've had such a fantastic experience there. It's a lovely setting, the staff are so friendly and caring, and they do so many fab activities with them. He always seems to have a brilliant day when

he's there. Would highly recommend!

I have had my children at this nursery and Pre-Prep over the past 6 years. My current child there loves it. The staff are all so engaged with the children and they get to do lots of different activities. I love that there's great outdoor space and even extra curricular activities for parents to get

involved in. The school prep seems good, as well.

Overall Experience

Our little boy has been in Little Rascals for the past 9 months from the time he was around 12 months old. While he took some time to settle in, he was shown nothing but warmth and care from his key workers. We have found all The staff to be informative and reassuring responding to any concerns we've

had along the way. Our little one now loves going in and it's obvious that he has a great relationship with all the staff there. They do plenty of activities to stimulate their interest and build confidence. I would recommend this nursery to friends.

Overall Experience

My children have a great time at Little Rascals Nursery, my son went through pre-toddlers, caterpillars and butterflies, and now my daughter is in the baby room. Little Rascals Nursery provides seasonal and topical activities for the age ranges, nutritious meals and the right amount of care and guidance.

They have a lovely garden and go out most days.
The staff at Little Rascals Nursery are wonderful, some practitioners are quiet and calm while others have bundles of energy, I personally think is good to have a mix.
Management are open to conversations and feedback that are not always comfortable (for example my boy was bitten a few times when he first joined, no one's fault, that's what babies do, but I wasn't happy and they assured me of steps to keep my boy a little safer). There are also parents' evenings twice a year to keep up with their learning journey.
Little Rascals Nursery throws a few lovely socials throughout the year, without being too much and it's nice to meet the other families you pass in the doorway everyday.
Highly recommend Little Rascals Nursery!

We are very happy with this nursery where both our daughters are going. They truly enjoy their time there. The staff are incredibly caring and attentive, ensuring that each child feels safe and valued.
The range of activities they offer is wonderful, keeping the children engaged, learning, and having

fun. I also love the regular updates I receive through the app, which let me stay connected to their day and see how they're doing.
Knowing my girls are so well looked after gives me such peace of mind.
I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a warm, nurturing, and stimulating environment for their little ones.

Both our boys have been to Little Rascals since they were babies. Our eldest is now at the pre-prep and our youngest is in the toddler room. They have both absolutely loved their time there and as parents, we couldn't be happier with our experience. The staff are kind and caring and take the time to

get to know each child and adapt to their differing requirements. It's a wonderful nursery with a lovely, nurturing approach that has suited our two boys perfectly.

I only have positive things to say about Little Rascals Nursery (and Pre-Prep). I have 3 girls who have all been at Little Rascals and they absolutely love it. They feel safe there and love seeing all their friends, barely turning around to say goodbye at the start of the day! The staff are incredibly

friendly, kind and attentive. They have seamlessly cared for their growing personalities and needs. The staff retention is excellent which is a testament to the ethos of the nursery and its managerial team. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Little Rascals.
