  • Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham, Cheltenham
Little Pips Nursery in Cheltenham is a family owned, 'home from home', private daycare nursery offering the highest quality of childcare to children aged 0-5 years old.

The inspirational learning environments including a large garden with huge sandpit, mud garden, two pirate ships, wooden playhouse, Wow shed, outdoor classroom, dedicated baby garden and much more, enable the children to explore and learn supported by a hard-working, dedicated team of ladies.

In the recent Ofsted report (June 2019) Little Pips Nursery was awarded GOOD with OUTSTANDING features.

The ladies closely support the children and record their development using electronic learning journals which enable parents to monitor children's fun adventures and progress. Parents have an app which helps to see the children's day at nursery as well as communicate with the staff easily.

Little Pips also run a 'graduate scheme' for the oldest Pips who are leaving for school in September. This scheme supports their transition through fun daily activities which develop their skills in phonics (reading), mark making (writing) and maths.

The dedicated cook provides freshly prepared, home-cooked food on a daily basis and children help to make a pudding once a week as well as growing vegetables.

Please ring or email for further information or a copy of the video tour.

My son has recently moved to Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham from another nursery (we moved to this area).


Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham made this transition period very easy for my son.


It is a lovely warm and welcoming place where my son feels safe and happy - the staff are lovely.

Pips Nursery Cheltenham is somewhere that my son really enjoys coming to. The garden space is fantastic.

I think this school is outstanding. I had my son in another school before and he did not take to it, as soon as I put him into Little Pips he has been so much happier and he loves going.

This nursery is like a family, staff are friendly and nothing is too big a job for them. The rooms are friendly and inviting. I know that my son needs are met and I am happy to leave him with the staff. Just after one month my son started to say some words like "car" and "digger".

I have seen the nursery change hands and couldn't be happier with the developments that have taken place. My son used to take a while to bond with people but Little Pips have done everything possible to develop his self-confidence and he now runs into nursery happily. His self-confidence is even growing
now outside of nursery which I feel is due to him having such a comfortable setting when away from his parents. Thank you, Little Pips!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.966)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.966) out of 10 for Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.966 for Little Pips Nursery Cheltenham is calculated as follows: ( (173 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.966

  • 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 Pips Nursery Cheltenham is based on 15 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4, which has been reached with 15 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.
