The nursery and all the staff are kind, compassionate, and capable (especially when it comes to sickness or extra needs I think).
They have supported two of my children (and us as parents it feels like!) so well and I feel very happy and lucky that we selected this nursery 4 years ago!
Outside space
is limited but it doesn't matter because they make so much of what they have and take the children out in to the gym and on trips.

Little Learners has been an amazing first educational setting for two of my grandchildren. The experiences and activities they plan on a daily basis for the children are both stimulating and inspirational!


As a retired early years foundation stage head teacher I am thoroughly enjoying supporting

my youngest granddaughter through her early years experience with the amazing, professionals at Little Learners.

My child absolutely loves his preschool teachers, the children he plays with and the setting. He is thriving in preschool. The staff are really friendly, they communicate with us brilliantly, we are able to talk with the team and know they care deeply for our child's wellbeing. It's a lovely place to
attend, our child is always so excited to go and spend time with his friends and teachers.

Absolutely love this nusery for my 3 year old. He has been attending for a year now and can honestly say he loves it, staff are so attentive to the children,caring and build up a nice relationshipwith each child, have updates regularly about childs progression. The apps great too, get to see what the
child eats throughout the day, and see pics of what your child does throughout thier day.
Management are always happy to help also. Will be very sad for my child to leave next year when he starts school.

Since my child started at this nursery in 2022 I have been extremely impressed with everything. The communication between all staff has always been flawless and my little boy has come on so much since being at the nursery, he is always so happy to go and he loves all the different activities that he
does there and he is always excited when he knows he is going to nursery. Such a lovely environment for him to be in and as a parent I am always kept up to date with his progress day to day.

I just love this nursery. Having experienced two other settings with my other child I can wholeheartedly say this is the warmest, and loveliest setting with emotional well-being at the centre of everything. My youngest son goes here and is even learning phonics nearly a full year before my oldest son
did. We have been blown away by the love, care and education here. Every member of the team is just lovely. My son loves it here!

Little Learners Nursery has been fantastic for our children. Both have allergies and they cater for them excellently. The staff and management are all lovely and they have great opportunities for the children. My children have come on leaps and bounds since starting this nursery, hands down it has been
one of the best parenting decisions we have made putting them in here. As a parent, it’s so reassuring to know my children are in a safe place with staff who genuinely care and nurture for them as if they were their own. I would not hesitate to recommend this setting and all the wonderful staff who work there.

My daughter has been with Little Learners since the babies room. She’s soon to move on into preschool. In my experience and opinion Little Learners is a friendly, safe, comfortable nursery for children to grow, learn and develop. They offer a range of extra curriculum activities such as dance swimming
and languages. As well as outdoor activities, planting, and learning about nature, it really is an inclusive environment. My daughter has made numerous friends of all ages and engages well socially with children and adults at the nursery, and has always been excited to attend. Great place for children to start their learning journeys.

We are so touched by your kind words, and can't wait to continue your daughter's journey in preschool!

My three and a half year old has recently started at Little Learners Nursery School Chester lower pre-school room, following a negative experience at another local provider.
I can’t rate them highly enough, they have been so understanding, caring, and nurturing towards him. He was very nervous and
anxious to begin with, but after just a few sessions he is really settling in now, despite never having been in a childcare setting previously.
The staff have taken the time to get to know what his interests are, and they engage with him enthusiastically in such a caring way that it makes drop-offs much easier.
When I come to pick him up at the end of his morning, he consistently says “too much to tell” when I ask what he’s been up to, so I know he’s having lots of fun there.

Amazing, friendly and very welcoming from day one! I couldn’t recommend the nursery highly enough. The app is great especially when at work and you upload pictures, lovely to see what he’s been doing throughout his day. Thank you for all you do for my boy.

Lovely nursery all round - well-managed settling in sessions when she started at 9 months old (now 16 months); brilliant staff that are always pleased to see us; a good variety of activities planned each day including outings; the list goes on. She's thrived at Little Learners Nursery School Chester,
really enjoys going.

We love Little Learners Nursery School Chester for our daughter. She has developed so well since starting. They do a wide range of activities with the children including time outside and walks into the local neighbourhood. Our little one always eats well and the staff are wonderful. Would highly recommend.

Friendly professional staff, and always with happy smiles. They are caring and responding to individual child's needs. The nursery is flexible in case sometimes extra hours of care are needed. The management team is approachable and understanding. Thank you to you all.

We have had 2 sons attend Little Learners Nursery School, our youngest is due to finish this month, honestly one of the best finds! Our son has developed in every possible way through being nurtured, educated and emotionally supported from workers in his room right through to management, he’s incredibly
happy every day when he comes home and so full of enthusiasm to talk about the amazing things he has done that day, every day seems to be a new adventure and a really fun place to be!

Little Learners Nursery School have been brilliant. My son has been going since he was 1 and is now 3.5 and my daughter has just started there. They both absolutely love it. The workers and management are all very good. The management knows both of my children even if they aren’t regularly working with
them which makes it feel like they really know their nursery. The staff turnover has slowed massively in the last year or so as well (since the new manager started it seems) and that is also pleasant as we get to know the people who are looking after our children and it’s not a new face every few weeks.
The communication is good, there is an app which is regularly updated with photos and information on activities that the children have been doing and they always think of some fun things for them to be doing.
The outside space is limited but they make the most of every corner of space!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.873)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.873) out of 10 for Little Learners Nursery School Chester is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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 4.873 for Little Learners Nursery School Chester is calculated as follows: ( (441 Excellents x 5) + (50 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 497 Ratings = 4.873

  • 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 Learners Nursery School Chester is based on 42 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2, which has been reached with 42 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.
