My daughter is now 3 and a half years old and she has been attending this nursery since she was 3 months old. During this time the staff have provided me with a lot of support whilst providing a safe and sensitive environment for my child. My child enjoys every day she attends and has made a lot of
friendships with the other children. I can see my child developing in all aspects thanks to the great work by all the staff at the nursery but a special shout out to the manager, to the girls in the baby room, and those in the toddler room and jags in the pre-school! Thank you!

My child started the toddler room in September. I was really anxious at first as to whether she would settle in or not, but with help of the lovely staff, in particular Sukhi and Nikki she has settled very well. There is always a variety of fun activities and i am always kept up-to-date with how she
is doing.

I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. My son has attended since he was 9 months old and has gone through each room there. I am so sad that he will be leaving to start school this year. The staff are amazing and the prices are very competitive.

My child has been attending this nursery, in the toddler room, since 2022 and the staff are amazing! I love the way they run the room, my daughter is always excited to attend and always comes home happy. One of the things I love most is that the staff are really good at posting updates throughout the
day so that I can see what fun activities she is up to with her friends.

Little Robins Day Nursery is quite simply amazing! The staff are highly reliable, accommodating and always attentive to my child's needs.
Activities for the children are well thought out, wide-ranging and parents are regularly updated on their child's progress.
It is equally clear that the health
and well-being of all children are integral. Certainly, my child is always so happy when dropped off and collected.
Thank you Little Robins staff for everything that you do.

I was very concerned when enrolling my child into a day nursery as he was born during the lockdown. But the confidence from the staff and the changes I have seen in my child are commendable. This is only because of his teachers.

An excellent pre-school. My little one was made to feel comfortable and listened to. They have a great range of activities daily with lots of tactile and creative experiences. Staff attitude is always kind and enthusiastic. They tell you exactly what your child ate and will cater for dietary requirements.
Overall, so pleased that I picked this nursery. My little one can’t wait to go in and always heads in with a smile on her face. We will be so sad when it’s time to start reception in September.

My granddaughter loves attending Little Robbins. They cover a wealth of activities and always engage the little ones in making things relevant to holidays for example Christmas, Easter and religious festivals. What I enjoy as a grandparent are the occasions when they have open times for parents and
grandparents to spend time with the child and interact with their play. The staff are very professional and friendly. I would highly recommend this nursery.

I recommend this nursery. It is split into two sites. They are on the ball regarding paperwork and have caring staff. The children are happy to attend and I feel they are in a safe environment. They use a lot of technology like apps and tablets so you can get regular updates.

I have had experience with Little Robins Day Nursery from 2017- 2023 as both my children attended this nursery from age 1.5 upon my return to work. Like most mothers, I was anxious about leaving my child after the maternity leave however, I can't stress enough how swiftly and supportively the staff
eased both my child and me through this transitioning process - they are always available on the phone, full of energy and life to speak to you so you can only imagine what a wonderful place and how much fun the children have during their stay. I am so thankful to have found this amazing place and I 100% vouch that you give it a try, it's the best start to life any parent could wish for their child - from my own experience I can see how much joy, social and developmental skills the staff have helped my child achieve, I truly respect and love you guys, keep up the hard work!

Very good nursery, with good communication between staff and parents, and listens to parents' concerns. Children learn and develop, my children love the staff that work there. Lovely activities and creative children exploring and learning extra lessons such as drama music football are very good.

Since August 2020 when your little one joined Little Robins Day Nursery, he has looked forward to going every single day and that says a lot about the kind of environment the management has created for children.
The staff are extremely wonderful and always happy to help with any concerns we have.
We
love the growth our little one had achieved since being here and look forward to our second child joining the system.

My two kids were at Toddlers and Preschool. Both of them never said no to nursery, this ensures how much the love and care they provide. Our first language is Tamil, my kids learnt to speak English from the staff, my son sounds more like the preschool Manager. My daughter loves to go to Toddler nursery
just for the love and care that the Toddlers Room Leader, showers on her. She has been an impact in most of her developments from picking up the English language to potty training. The priceless smile from my daughter whenever the Toddler Room Leader opens the door, I go work with a light heart as she is in safe hands. Everyone in Toddlers and Preschool were fantastic, special mention to all the managers as they have a huge part of making them ready for school, and the best thing they teach is ears are to listen, hands are to be gentle, be kind which made both of them good children even at home. Parenting is very tough but with the staff, it's paving the way for making it a little easier. A huge thank you and love to you all.

Reply from Paul Wilkinson, Owner at Little Robins Day Nursery

Thank you for taking the time to provide your us with your comments. It's wonderful to hear that your son's language development has progressed, as well as how relaxed they are at the childcare and with the staff. Every child is different, and it's critical that we adjust to suit their specific requirements. I'm glad you're satisfied with the outcome, and I appreciate your continued support.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.832)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.832) out of 10 for Little Robins Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.832 for Little Robins Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (159 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.832

  • 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 Robins Day Nursery is based on 16 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 16 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.
