We viewed quite a few nurseries before joining Little Garden Brentford and as I work with children myself and was already a mom of 3 I knew exactly what I wanted for my baby in terms of caregiving. The staff immediately stood out from our first visit as people who truly care for all the children, they
are so authentic and loving and had no problems following my baby's routine which I greatly appreciate. My baby also has severe allergies and the staff are very proactive in ensuring his dietary requirements are always met. They have the best chef I have seen thus far in any nursery, she takes such pride and care in working for the children, making the most nutritional meals. The managers and staff are simply amazing and I couldn't be any happier, and my little one will definitely be staying until it's time for his school transition.

My son started in April - with a struggle at first as he wouldn't ever leave my side for anybody. The nursery have really brought him out of his shell and he is now a lot more confident within himself around others. Cannot thank them enough for their support in doing this, all the staff are brilliant!

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School

Both of our sons are currently at the nursery and we couldn't be happier. They are very well cared for, and have really thrived in the setting. Our eldest will be starting at school in September and while he will be very sad to leave, I feel confident that the skills he has learnt will put him in a
great position for his next steps! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School

We're absolutely thrilled to hear how happy you are with our nursery! Knowing that both your sons are thriving and well cared for is the best news we could ask for.

Our eldest has been at this nursery for over a year and he has had such a lovely experience that our second child is going to start there soon. The building is a great setting, very open rooms both upstairs in the baby room and downstairs with the bigger children. The separation of the ages is helpful
not just for activities but so our son can have his very long daily nap (often 2 hours) whilst the other children play nearby. The children do all get to mingle in the garden with its slide, mud kitchen, bricks, water bath, tricycles, chalkboard - so many fun things to do. The staff are lovely, very caring and helpful. They keep us up to date in person, on the phone and with the app. It has been lovely to see them in action when I've needed to collect my son early. Our son has an egg allergy and they have done extremely well with him, with no reactions even though the other children are eating egg. Other benefits to mention - Spanish classes are great and buggy shed very useful.

Reply from Sonny, Marketing at Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School

We're thrilled your eldest had such a lovely time with us that you're bringing your second child! Our team takes pride in creating a fun, safe space for all ages, from naps to garden adventures. It's great to hear about your positive experiences with our allergy management and Spanish classes. Thank you for your glowing review!

My child loves to be there. There are plenty of activities for him to enjoy and he's always learning new things. The one he likes the most is singing on guitar Spanish songs every Monday. The teachers are great and lovely.

Our son is so happy at this nursery, as are we to send him here. We are very happy with his progress, he loves learning about numbers and I think a big part of this is down to the nursery. We are so happy with the team, they are so helpful and fantastic with the kids, and with all the individual efforts
with each child that are made too.

As a parent entrusting my child's early education and care to Azari's nursery, I can confidently say it has been an exceptional experience. Under the stellar leadership of the management team sets an incredibly high standard for the entire staff. Their dedication to creating a nurturing environment
is evident in every aspect of the nursery's operations.
The caregivers at Azari's nursery are truly remarkable. They go above and beyond to ensure every child receives personalized attention, fostering not just academic development but also emotional and social growth. My son has thrived in their care, and I credit the attentive and loving staff for his progress.

I simply don't know what I would do without the Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School team. As a nursery, it offers everything that you would hope to see in a great nursery. A vast array of activities, lots of outdoor time, oodles of creativity, the encouragement of reading (including
a lending library), an emphasis on personalised development and freshly made, varied foods from all over the world. What makes Little Garden so special is what I hadn't been expecting - the wonderful team and the atmosphere they create. Led by a brilliant manager, the community feel that exists between child, parent, staff and other parents is just lovely. It feels more like a welcoming village school than a London nursery. My son has been there since he was 8 months old and it has been such a reassurance, as a full-time working mother, to see the level of care and genuine affection but moreover, the invaluable kindness and support and flexibility that has been shown to me. Thank you!

My son has attended Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School for over a year now and he continues to flourish at the nursery. The staff are genuinely lovely and caring towards all of the children, especially the manager and the Little Buds staff members (baby and toddler room). The nursery
has wonderful facilities available for the children, including a spacious garden, a great selection of wooden toys and messy/sensory play etc. We love you Brentford Day Nursery!

I have been taking my first child for nearly three years and when the younger one came, this was an obvious choice. My two girls are deeply loved and well cared for. Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School staff are brilliant, the manager is amazing and they all take their work with their
hearts. It’s a tiny, happy place where everyone knows your child and you feel really cared for. I wouldn’t choose any other place if I didn’t have to and definitely recommend it for those precious early years of your child!

We have been sending our son to this nursery for just over a year. The staff have been brilliant, friendly and welcoming from the start. Like many nurseries, there has been a turnover of staff but we have always found the level of care to be high. The manager is amazing; always helpful, efficient and
you can tell that she really cares about the children.
I am actually jealous of the food that the children are served every day by the in-house chef.
Overall, this is a well-run nursery with great staff and great food, I would definitely recommend.

Our daughter is going to Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School since August 2023 and she absolutely loves it. The staff are absolutely fantastic, caring and kind. She started since she was 14 months and as a mum, I was so worried but I saw how amazing everyone there is and made me more
relaxed. The nursery is always clean and has lots of activities for children. My daughter is always happy and she eats everything which means the food is great. I would highly recommend it to parents and their little ones. I liked it from the day I booked a visit.

Our son has been going to Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School since he was 8 months old and they have been absolutely amazing. A true lifeline. They have encouraged him to grow and become independent. He’s learnt to eat and share and play with other children, the staff are very knowledgeable
and extremely helpful, I went to see the nursery and plan to see others but after seeing this nursery and speaking with staff, I decided that there was no need to look. Anyone else would highly recommend. The chef makes a variety of fresh food daily. He is thoroughly spoilt.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.969)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.969) out of 10 for Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.969 for Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (253 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 261 Ratings = 4.969

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Garden The Brentford Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
