  • Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton, London
Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton supports the transition to school as they have a link to Sherrington Primary School meaning their children have direct access to the school grounds. They make regular supervised visits to the classrooms, use the assembly halls and see the bigger children in their environment.

They are big on happy children. They have areas for growing food (and eating it), regular visits to local care homes and a focus on taking care of each other and the world. The nursery holds the prestigious Green Flag Status Award (the highest possible), an Eco-school programme that sees children lead the way in making little changes that deliver big environmental differences.

They are big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained and they have 5 Little Pioneers who help share their core values with the children, such as encouraging them to be independent to making a difference in the world.

They also have a ParentZone app that keeps mums and dads informed about life at nursery which includes photos from their day, meals eaten, assessments and even toilet training progress!

Each age group 0-2 and 2-5 years have their own rooms which they have personalised to create their own areas they can enjoy. The nursery has a luxurious balcony for the over twos which has a roof canopy allowing the children to extend their play in an outdoor environment.

Babies have a separate soft surface garden area with artificial grass, giving them varied textures to begin to explore the outside world in play. There are musical toys and mirrors attached to the walls to provide stimulating play.

Our son began in the baby room last year and we are so happy with Charlton Co-Op ! The nursery staff are fantastic and you can tell they really care about their charges. Similarly, management are great and go out of their way to know us as a family and accommodate our needs. We have noticed our son
learning all sorts of new things from his peers and key workers which is wonderful to see, but most of all he is happy, safe and cared for. There's also a strong sense of developing new strategies and improvements in the running of the nursery. I've already booked our new baby to begin at the same nursery when she comes of age!

*I am introvert and shy yet she made me feel comfortable, heard and welcomed.
*the
staff and the manager gave my child ample of time to adjust in the new environment which was very helpful and effective. They looked after the wellbeing of the young-ones.

*all of them are very nice, they always gave us updates on how my son was and his improvements.
*i'm sure my son is well looked after and safe.

Outstanding nursery; we are lucky to live around the corner from Little Pioneers Charlton and we sing its praise to anyone who will listen! Beautiful building for the children to play and learn in, big outdoor area. Recently gone through a full refurbishment with new toys for the children to play with.
Beautiful touches such as a sharing library and nominating outstanding members of the team that month at the entrance. Staff are supportive, welcoming, kind to parents and are excellent in their caring responsibilities. I was nervous about leaving little one at nursery when I started back at work but I shouldn't have worried. She was always well looked after, I got personal feedback each day and now she runs into nursery she loves it that much. The team at nursery really do feel part of our family given grandparents live far away. We cannot speak highly enough of four members of staff in particular and the team x

The quality and safety standards of this nursery have dropped significantly since new management took over in April-24. My children have been coming here daily for the last 3 years, and the previous 2.5 years have been brilliant and agree with previous reviewers. However, in the last 6 months, we've
seen a significant increase in accidents and incidents at the nursery. We've been promised improvements in processes and procedures on multiple occasions but we've not seen these implemented. Just recently our daughter experienced a major injury through clear negligence and oversight, which could have been avoided if the nursery had taken action to minimise the risks which were known to them. Highly disappointed with the way this nursery is run today.

My child has recently joined Co-op Childcare, and the transition has been seamless. From day one, the staff welcomed us with open arms, making us feel like an integral part of their warm and nurturing family. Their genuine care and kindness are evident in every interaction.
As I observe my little one’s
joyful expressions, it’s clear that they are thriving here. The environment is filled with laughter, curiosity, and learning. I eagerly look forward to witnessing my child’s growth and development, knowing that the dedicated team at Co-op Childcare is there every step of the way.
Thank you for creating a place where children not only learn but also feel cherished and valued. We are excited about this journey and grateful for the caring community you’ve built.
Wishing your little one a wonderful experience at Co-op Childcare!

This is a wonderful nursery. Two of my daughters attended Co-op Charlton, spanning up to 9 years. In all that time the staff have been friendly, engaging and devoted to my children's welfare and development. I cannot compliment them all enough. The nursery manager is an exemplary figure. You can see
she cares and loves each and every one of the children and they love her too! All feedback is taken onboard and actioned accordingly. Staff are always ready to provide an update on the kids or share funny stories to keep us updated on how our child's day has been. I highly recommend the nursery. It's great all around!

My son has flourished at the Charlton Co-op since he was one year old (almost two years ago!) and he's learned and grown so much there. It's not just a safe and fun environment; it's a place where the staff feels like family.
They've gone above and beyond in so many ways. When my son had a serious
broken leg, they accommodated his recovery needs with sensitivity and created a space where he still felt included. More recently, their expertise and encouragement during potty training have been invaluable, making the process so positive. Beyond specific situations, we appreciate the everyday care and attention all the staff provide. The teachers are dedicated and create a nurturing environment where my son can explore, learn, and make friends. He comes home happy and engaged, excited to share his experiences and new skills. We feel confident that his time at Charlton Co-op has laid a strong foundation for his future, and we're incredibly grateful for everything they've done.

Staff have been very supportive to both my daughter and our entire family. As a family from a minority ethnic group, l have always felt that my child and the entire family have been included in every step and activity that my child gets involved in! An experience l had not experienced in previous nursery
settings. And for that reason, it’s my opinion to say that Charlton is outstanding.

Thank you for the great response. We are working really hard to make sure our after school activities are both fun and challenging. We want the children to go home talking about how much fun they've had at the Co-op after school club.

Our daughter has been attending Charlton Co-op Nursery for almost 2 years. We have watched her develop and thrive during this time. The whole team have been hugely supportive and we can see all of the learning activities the team organise really helping her development. We are provided with regular
feedback and things for us as a family to concentrate on at home to help her progress. The team are all very warm and caring and our daughter clearly finds it a very safe, warm and nurturing environment.

Reply from Connie Cousins, Manager at Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton

The staff work really hard to tailor the children's education and experiences to their individual needs, so we really appreciate when parents recognise the hard work put in, thank you so much.

Absolutely amazing nursery! My daughter started in September and I was extremely apprehensive to leave her. Immediately, her key person was supportive and approachable to her and my daughter quickly became a huge fan, she has since built great relationships with all staff in the room. Although all staff
are great, I cannot praise her key person enough, she is always willing to go above and beyond for my child and answer any questions we may have as parents. She also takes the time to speak with my older child and include her in pick-ups and drops offs and is now her ‘best friend’ despite not attending the nursery. The management are also amazing, they have always made themselves available to discuss any issues and even helped me access the app when I was unable to. I honestly cannot recommend this nursery enough!

The team at Charlton Co-op is amazing. The place is very well run, communication is good. We had both our daughters at the nursery and both really enjoyed it. One has now moved to the Sherington School and the transition was easy and the close links with the school are very useful. They offer wrap-around
care when children go to school, which really helps with the transition. The team also really helped with one of our daughters when she had behavioural issues. They listened to what we thought could help and had their own suggestions. It really felt like we were working together to address the issue and it worked! More generally, all the staff are caring and provide a warm and safe environment to the children.

Reply from Connie Cousins, Manager at Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton

It's wonderful to hear that you have had 2 children attend the nursery and both are continuing to thrive both at the nursery and since leaving. The team work very hard to work together with parents, so it's great to hear that you have found this experience positive.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.787)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.787) out of 10 for Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton 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 34 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 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 4.787 for Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton is calculated as follows: ( (343 Excellents x 5) + (43 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (4 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 403 Ratings = 4.787

  • 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 Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school Charlton is based on 33 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 33 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.
