Overall Experience

Absolutely fantastic nursery, my daughter adores her new friends. The staff are brilliant and truly seem to care deeply about their little visitors, each child is encouraged through play and my daughter has come on leaps and bounds since January. The fact she always wants to go even in days she doesn't

go and doesn't want to stop playing to come home says a lot. The nursery is well staffed, well maintained and their safety is very good especially as the ethos is to allow the children to find their limits. Challenging behaviour is nipped in the bud albeit respectfully and fairly and all the children seem to get along wonderfully.

Overall Experience

Returning to work is a scary experience leaving your precious child in someone else’s care for the first time but everyone at Little Explorers has made this so much easier through their friendly but professional manner. Our daughter has bloomed at Little Explorers Nursery. She is growing into a strong

independent, free- thinking child. We put this down to the care and attention she has received at the Nursery. I feel the nursery is an extension to our family home. It is warm, nurturing and always buzzing with excitement. The staff always go above and beyond to make each child feel special and don’t ever rush time with us as their parents. I’m always in awe of the activities in place and how special everyone who works there is. We’re lucky to have such an amazing place.

Overall Experience

My grandchild loves going to nursery. The staff are friendly and know all the children, parents and carers. She has come along in leaps and bounds in terms of social skills and her learning. She particularly loves the outside playing/learning area which was a main consideration of our choosing this

day nursery.

Overall Experience

When my daughter first started, it took a good while to be allowed to leave her. This changed, in the first week, completely the opposite in fact and doesn't want to come home!

This is a fantastic nursery, with every little detail thought about. It is safe and secure, but remains a fun and uplifting

place to be!

My daughter loves going to this nursery, and all the staff love her back!

Overall Experience

Love, love, love, this nursery, my little boy goes in with a smile and doesn't want to leave when I get him. It's such a relaxed environment which the children feed off, so when you walk in you feel at ease that your child is being well looked after. The owner and manager are so approachable and do

such an amazing job.

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery with amazing staff and owners (no I'm not related to them!).

My son has been coming to this nursery over a year now, we moved him from a different nursery and I'm so glad we did. My son is always coming home exhausted and dirty which in my opinion means he has had a great day.

Being

able to play outside all day every day in any weather, has been my son's favourite bit and the walk to the woods is an amazing experience for them, rather than being stuck inside all day.

My son is starting school in September and he is very prepared for starting even though he has just turned 4, all thanks to this amazing nursery. I will be sad to see him leave next month as the nursery is such an amazing experience for them.

Overall Experience

You know it's a good nursery when you go to pick your child and they are curled up on the sofa with two members of staff reading a book. The staff are like my sons 2nd family, he is just so settled with them all, which is something I have not seen when sending my eldest to nursery. The outdoor area

is amazing, my son loves that he can play outside all day long no matter the weather.

Overall Experience

Truly excellent nursery with first class facilities (indoor and outside) and most importantly an enthusiastic, warm, highly trained team, who adore the children.

This nursery should form a best practice model for others. My daughter is happy, stimulated, well-fed and nurtured. What more could I ask

for?

The owners continue to significantly invest in training, toys, equipment and technology. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery and feel very privileged that my daughter attends.

My daughter loves it. The leadership is inspirational. Constantly involving parents. It feels like a real family. The progress she is making is fantastic.
She comes home full of stories about the fun she has had. I wish they would open a school!

Amazing and inspirational place. My child settled so well and is thriving. She didn't settle well at another nursery but the staff made her feel so cared for.

I love hearing from her key worker what she gets up to.

A great nursery with lovely, friendly, welcoming staff who adore children. My little boy absolutely loves going and doesn't want to leave! The garden is amazing, far better than anything I've seen at other local nurseries. They always have great activities to keep the children well entertained and they

take them on excursions to local woodlands to explore- what more could you ask for? I highly recommend this nurseryfof this looking for a unique learning experience for their little ones.

Overall Experience

We enrolled our little boy as we were not only impressed with the forest school ethos but also the energy and enthusiasm displayed by the staff. We have not been disappointed and are thrilled with the nursery. Our son comes home with tales of trips to the woods, hide and seek and searching for creepy

crawlies. The staff are wonderful and the whole place has such a happy and stimulating atmosphere. This is a very special place that really stands out from the crowd.
