Funding & Fees Guide for Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre

  • 0-3 YEARS - DAILY RATE = £54.79 HALF DAY RATE = £31.32.
    3-5 YEARS - DAILY RATE = £58.99 HALF DAY RATE = £29.49.
    We have a number of funded places for 2 and 3/4 year olds


  • A common practice in early years settings was to charge parents across the full year for their child’s fees. Understandably for a child’s place to be retained - even though they are away on holiday - most nurseries charge for 50 or 52 weeks of the year. Little Angels commits to charge parents for only 47 weeks of the year giving 5 weeks holiday.

We can not recommend Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre enough!
All staff go above and beyond for our daughter and we definitely have no concerns whilst she is there! We have no complaints about the meals our daughter receives either - they are really good!


She has learnt so much since she

started and it is amazing to see!
We could not ask for anything more from a nursery and are really impressed!

I paid our deposit for a place here at 12 weeks pregnant and have not looked back! The staff and management are very experienced and really do offer an ‘outstanding’ service to babies and young children all round (which is important to me as a teacher myself, albeit older years). The nursery were breastfeeding
supportive, and have gone above and beyond to support our little girl whilst her parents have gone through some difficult times with medical appointments etc. Cherubs staff are amazing! We would have no hesitation in leaving another baby in their care. And the transition to Rockets has been very well facilitated. Our little girl has come on developmentally in every sense of the word since nursery became part of her life at 9 months old. Her eating and drinking skills, her speech and communication skills, her play and social skills - they are all very advanced and I must pay credit to Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre for their significant part in this. Going back to work after maternity leave was made very easy. Thank you.

Our son started Little Angels in 2021. He always settled in well, but drop-offs were tearful for months. Now he walks in without looking back and talks about his friends (his fellow rockets as well as the staff) constantly. He has also struggled with suspected asthma and food allergies, sometimes requiring
medications during nursery hours. The staff are brilliant and have been excellent in their professionalism. We were impressed with how they managed to keep up with the Covid rules too. The friendly, caring staff are responsive to any queries or needs we have. The app is great for updating important information like food intake, toileting and sleep. I love the photos that they upload of what our son has been up to. They put in a huge effort to decorate and celebrate holidays and special events, which is greatly appreciated. Our son has progressed really well in all areas of development since starting nursery. I definitely recommend Little Angels, our youngest will start there soon!

The staff at Little Angels exhibit professional conscientiousness. They are prompt, reliable and honest when communicating the daily activities performed by the child during the time spent under their care. I highly recommend this institution.

I could not think of a better nursery to put my son in! He settled in very quickly and he loves everyone in it! Always mentions what he has been doing with teachers/friends. He has been in Little Angels since he was about 19/20 months, he is now almost 4 and his development is outstanding.

The nursery has friendly staff who obviously care about the children. Not just the primary carers but also the entire support staff. The support staff know the names of the children. The rooms are bright and clean. The children enjoy going to the nursery.

I can't say enough good things about the staff - they are truly caring and attentive towards the children in their care. They create a warm and welcoming environment that allows children to feel comfortable and supported. It's clear that they have a genuine love for what they do, and they work hard
to ensure that the children receive the highest quality care.
My son absolutely loves attending the nursery, and I can see why. The activities provided are engaging and age-appropriate, and foster his development in various areas, including cognitive, emotional, and social.
I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for their child. The staff are dedicated to providing the best possible care for the children, and it's evident that they genuinely care about their well-being and development. I couldn't be happier with the care my son is receiving.

We have been so happy with Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre and the team there. I was so worried about leaving our little one but the experience, excellent communication and personal care of the team saw us through the initial settling in. Our toddler has been happy and settled for over a year;
he often dances out of nursery at the end of the day. The food is varied and toddler friendly. The outdoor space and activities are fun, stimulating and encourage collaborative play and learning. We have no hesitation about sending our second child to join him!

We are so happy we chose Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre for our little boy. He absolutely loves going through the doors and often doesn't look back at all as he goes to play with his friends and nursery staff. All of the staff are so lovely and any queries we've had I've been able to speak
to someone and been helped really quickly. Our little one has a nut allergy and we feel he is in safe hands should anything happen whilst he is there. The app they use is also really good and makes updates and communication easy with lots of nice pictures throughout the day. Lovely nursery!

Very friendly staff, approachable, open. Both our boys really enjoy nursery, initially, the younger one was upset but he settled in quickly thanks to the kindness and support of the staff. He even asks for some staff members at home now as he enjoys playing with them so much. Generally, the food seems
good, and my children eat a wider variety of food there than at home (despite our continued efforts). Perhaps that is staff encouragement and the benefit of seeing other children eating the same. My concern re food is the 2 desserts a day, seems quite a lot to me especially for young children in terms of sugar intake. Most mornings now my children skip into nursery very happily without so much as a backward glance, and can even be annoyed if I pick them up early and take them away from all the fun.

Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre is a fantastic nursery. We have been using it so far for 3.5 years, and having two children we will still be using it for a further 2 years. The facilities are great and the staff are amazing, so nurturing and caring. Management are supportive and accommodating
when changes to hours have been needed. Both our children love attending. They are well stimulated and supported in their development. Particularly at preschool age, as there is a focus on supporting children to prepare for the transition to school. They use a good app, so you have access to key info about your little ones throughout the day (naps, nutritional intake, etc). It helps with communication, you can send a message to staff and receive a prompt reply. The nursery have been great at dealing with allergies.

My son started Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre in January. Since starting the staff in the nursery have been so welcoming and accommodating to his every need. They are very friendly and treat my child with utmost care. We get daily updates on the Famly App regarding my child's development
and his daily routine. It has been reassuring looking at photos to see how well my child has settled into nursery. The staff are doing an amazing job!

Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre is a wonderful nursery. The girls in the babies room are the most beautiful lovely people and really make you feel like they love your child which is the most important thing as a parent. They really are the best nursery room we have experienced and we have
experienced many! The managers of the nursery go to town at Christmas and it's like stepping into a winter wonderland! My daughter went there for only a short time before school and they always make her feel so welcome when she picks up her younger two siblings! My son can be a little more challenging with his behaviour but the staff in all stars always pick up on what might be underlying it and work with him and me to help him! We absolutely love the nursery just wish it opened a bit earlier!

An excellent environment for developing little minds. My son loves every second, he runs for his shoes and school bag excited to see his friends and favourite nursery teachers. The daily photos and updates on the portal app and being able to communicate if need be with his teachers makes life easy and
definitely reassuring.

From the moment I walked into Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre in 2019, it felt like a home from home and still is now to this day. We viewed a few nurseries and Little Angels stood out from them all. Our daughter has been lucky enough to attend for over 3 years and has had the best experience
there. I can't thank the key workers and nursery manager enough for their hard work and dedication to their roles. The rooms are spacious, bright and welcoming. The food menus are brilliant and suited to everyone. I can't fault the nursery one bit and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for peace of mind while their little ones are in childcare. Thank you for taking such good care of our daughter.

My son started at the nursery in early 2021 and settled in without any trouble whatsoever. I felt instantly at ease after speaking to the staff and from the extra effort they went to to create a vegan menu for him - he loves his meals there! Whenever I pick him up, he is happy and smiling and it's always
reported that he has had a great day which shows that he is very comfortable there. The app is excellent and really helped me feel included when he first started as there are regular updates and photos throughout the day. I would 100% recommend Little Angels. The staff have been amazing with my son.

The exemplary standard of professionalism and dedication of the staff at this nursery is only exceeded by their genuine affection and caring for the children which I witness every day when I collect my little granddaughter. The nursery building, meals and regime are of an excellent order and I'm very
happy that she attends such a lovely nursery and more to the point so is she! Thank you Little Angels at Fenham.

Current Review Score: 8.3 (8.347)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.3 (8.347) out of 10 for Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 5.000 for Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.347 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Angels at Fenham Children's Centre is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 0.222

  • 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.
