I'm blown away by how much my little one has settled and grown since starting at Little Learners and in such a short time. The staff are so accommodating, not only for the child but for parents as well. I would/have been recommending Little Learners to other parents.

My daughter absolutely loves going here.
The staff are incredible always happy and smiling. My daughter was very nervous about going but when she is here she always comes out happy smiling and relaxed.
She now goes in without crying so one happy mammy.
The ladies who work here are a credit to
the nursery.
Thank you to all the girls who help care for my daughter.

My daughter has been at this nursery for nearly a year now and she absolutely loves it. She was very nervous and upset about attending nursery at first, but the staff were very supportive and encouraging and she quickly formed a great bond with all the staff and other children. The staff are all lovely
and have really helped my child to grow and explore new things and I am always kept well informed about her daily activities. The nursery itself is very welcoming and cosy, with lots of activities. She also enjoys all the meals she has there which are very varied and balanced. Would 100% recommend Little Learners!

We are so pleased we chose this nursery for our son. He started just a few weeks before his first birthday and we were very nervous leaving him in a new setting. The team were so caring and were happy to keep us up to date with how he was doing. The size of the nursery works really well for us, as our
son gets a bit overwhelmed in larger busier places. The food seems to be a big hit, and he's made a great bond with his lovely key worker.

My daughter started in September and she absolutely loves it! All the staff are wonderful, really friendly and caring. They do so many activities throughout the day, my daughter is always full of smiles after her days at nursery and has already come on leaps and bounds. My daughter loves the varied
meals provided, often demolishing things she would normally refuse at home!

My daughter absolutely loved Little Learners, the staff are amazing; so warm and caring and the care is excellent! She learned so much and made so much progress in all areas of her development. As a parent, I was always kept up to date and well informed about how my daughter was doing and there were
regular reviews of her progress. I always felt so comfortable dropping my daughter off as she was made to feel so welcome and loved by the Little Learners family!

My son settled into nursery as soon as he started in June 2022 aged 18 months and loved going. The staff were all amazing with him and really welcoming and friendly. Drop off was always a personal lovely handover and pick up you always got lots of feedback from the day. My son used to skip into the
nursery and made friends who he still talks about since leaving in July 2024. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Our daughter really struggled to settle at her old nursery setting, so it was such a relief to find Little Learners and to see her settle and come out of her shell. The staff truly cared for our daughter and really focused on her needs. They also were great about incorporating what was going on in our
family life with activities and conversations at nursery too. For example, I went back to work and my daughter came home with a book about mummies going to work. We got guinea pigs and she came home with foraged flowers for them. The staff always went above and beyond. The nursery itself is small, but I feel this meant more care and attention is able to be provided to the children. Kids are not at risk of being overlooked. I highly recommend this lovely little nursery. We are certainly glad our daughter was able to attend and to have been taught by such wonderful, kind staff.

I could not recommend Little Learners enough. My child attended from 1 year old till leaving recently for reception. The staff are amazing, very friendly, caring and attentive. At the end of the day, they provide you with a full breakdown of how the child has been, what activities they have been up
to and what food they have consumed. Also regular parent meetings throughout the year to keep track of the child's personal development and provide parents opportunities to discuss any key areas of focus. They have a lovely onsite cook who prepares all the children's meals and the kitchen is separate from the playrooms. They have a great outdoor space which consists of a big open grass area and a turf area so they can play on bikes/ scooters etc. They always make the most of this space no matter the time of year and provide appropriate clothing to accommodate rainy days. My child was so comfortable at this nursery asking every day to go which made the transition as a parent so much easier.

My son has loved his time at Little Learners. The staff all work really hard and they should be commended for their work ethic, patience, and understanding. He went from a shy little boy to an outgoing young man, and the communication from his carers was excellent. They nurtured his own interests so
well and also helped him discover lots of new things to learn and talk about. They were also great at keeping his passion for books going. He was excited every day he got to go, and we also love the sense of community we feel having the nursery so close to home, and now so close to his new Primary School. It takes a village to raise a child, and I can't thank Little Learners enough for helping us create that for our son.

Our son loves going to Little Learners, he asks every week when he can go back. The staff is really great: friendly, caring and gives updates on little one's learning journey at every pick-up. I particularly like that learning and activities are child-led and they seem to do a lot of reading, playing
outside and crafting or painting. There are also nice seasonal activities going on. Can highly recommend it!

Excellent nursery. Staff are brilliant with my son and he loves going there. When dropping him off and picking him up he is extremely happy to be there. Staff are very professional and supportive, going above and beyond with their care. The nursery is well-managed and information is communicated effectively.
I would highly recommend this nursery!

My little boy started the nursery in April 2023 when he was 9 months old. The progress he has made in such a short time is amazing. He absolutely loves attending. The staff are outstanding at what they do as well as the communication to make sure I feel completely relaxed when he is in their care. The
opportunities for development, learning and growth are brilliant due to the efforts of the staff and facilities available. I couldn't recommend the nursery enough to anyone looking for childcare, particularly from a young age.

My child started in this nursery in April 2023 and it has been fantastic. From my first visit, I felt like the staff have very good relationships with all the children. I witnessed the manager personally address many of the kids and know current information about all of them. My child has taken to the
nursery and staff really well. The food menus each week are very varied, and good quality food is made fresh on-site. The facilities on site are well maintained. The nursery has a great outdoor space with both paved and grass areas. My child has learned a lot in a short period of time.

I have two children who currently attend Little Learners Childcare (4 and 2) and they both love it! The staff are really friendly, very attentive to their needs, patient and always have lots of feedback to give us about what the kids have been up to, how they have been, any concerns etc. Both kids have
come on really well in their interactions, speech, play, social skills etc since they have been attending.
The inside and outside areas are full of toys and activities and tools to help them develop and play with things they are interested in.
Staff always share development plans and are on hand to offer signposting or ideas if needed.
It is a great place for my kids, the oldest will be sad when he leaves at the end of this term! We'll look forward to another couple of years with Little Learners with the youngest

I was recommended Little Learners and I would definitely recommend it to others. When visiting I felt there was something special about this setting. I was shown around, and they took time to discuss all aspects of the nursery, listened to the needs of my little girl and answered all of my questions.
My daughter has grown in confidence since she started and she obviously loves it - she sings songs she has learnt, talks about staff and acts out being at nursery! I can't fault the staff; they all know her so well, and they supported her as she settled in and continue to with each new step. Staff take time to talk to parents about the child's day and they listen to what has happened in the child's life away from nursery so they can support and provide consistency. They have a varied menu and my daughter loves the food she is served. Everyone is so friendly and you can tell they really care. I will be very sad when she leaves!
