Very happy with the nursery, my son enjoys the variety of activities and going on walks. I like the menu, which is much better than other nurseries.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

Thank you for your kind words about our nursery - it's wonderful that parents notice our optimum nutritional menu and yes - we love going on lots of walks to the park, woods and local community! We work with our partner nutritionist to devise healthy and nutritionally balanced menus across the week. As an example, we do not purchase all food from a supermarket; all our meat comes from locally sourced farms, grass-fed cattle and British chicken - all from a local butcher. We only use butter (not margarine or oil) for cooking and spreading and we use reduced sugar (or no sugar) puddings - please feel free to contact me for more details of all the great background to our food offer here at Little Adventurers.

Our son has had a lovely time at the nursery. The nursery's done an amazing job for COVID-19. It'll be great of the nursery could start teaching pre-school children phonetics and maths.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

We are so pleased that parents have felt reassured by our health and safety measures throughout the pandemic. Our whole team have worked so hard at keeping everyone as safe as we possibly can and we look forward to being able to re-introduce further exciting extra-curricular activities such as forest school for the summer ahead. Maths and literacy activities are always part of our play-based curriculum, however, please feel free to speak with your son's key person or the manager to have further insight into how we incorporate these within the nursery day.

A lovely nursery with an excellent management team which shines through in the consistency and loyalty of the staff and their professional care towards the children. The setting, although in a high-density residential area, is a clean, peaceful and fun environment to learn and play and they have made
the best of the space available. They have really gone the extra mile to settle my daughter both when she first started and post-pandemic by sending presentations and videos for her to engage and familiarise herself with.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

Hello K F, thank you for taking the time out to review our nursery. It means a lot to know that the professionalism of the staff team shines through alongside the care and steps taken with settling children and helping them to feel emotionally secure when they first join us. We hope your daughter continues to enjoy her time with us - we have an exciting summer full of adventures for her!

The staff and setting at Little Adventures can’t be faulted. Our daughter started during the COVID pandemic after using a childminder for the last couple of years. The manager and the team went out their way to make our daughter feel comfortable in the new setting. All the staff are really friendly
and our daughter settled into the new environment really quickly.

My son has been attending Little Adventurers Nursery since 2018. He is quite shy and reserved but has truly flourished as a result of the nursery and the staff.
I am totally confident in the nursery leadership and management during the COVID pandemic. They have maintained transparency throughout to
provide reassurance and taken additional steps that other nurseries may not have done to keep everyone safe and reduce the Irish of the nursery premises being a source of infection. This included regular deep cleans of carpets etc as well as the daily cleaning of toys and equipment.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

Many thanks, Angela, for taking the time to review our nursery. We are very grateful to all our families for supporting our high safety measures and precautions and all of our nursery team have pulled together during this pandemic to keep the nursery as safe as possible. We have introduced many measures (such as you mention above) and we are continuing to work in bubbles despite this not being a requirement as we believe this is best for our children, their families and our staff team. Thank you again.

The nursery has had such an impact on my son, with him being an only child he can be quite shy with others. He is growing confidence with others daily and loves the wonderful staff that look after him. The food is really balanced and I love the fact that it has been thought about with nutrition in mind!
In particular, I would like to give praise to the nursery on their response during the Coronavirus Pandemic from implementing measures to keep everyone safe to still providing a wonderful home from home for our children.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review for us. We are so pleased that you can see such a positive difference in your little boy's confidence and development. Thank you also for your kind words surrounding our health and safety measures currently in place to protect our little ones, their families and our staff team. Indeed nutrition is a key element of our ethos with nursery menus all being endorsed by our partner nutritionist. Teaching children about where food comes from and why it's important to eat a 'rainbow of colours' is all part of the teaching within our setting. We hope your little one continues to thrive and enjoy his days with us.

This is our second child at Little Adventures and we could not be any happier with them. Our little one is so happy here. She enjoys each day and loves every minute of it. She even asks why they are closed on the weekends! The team are truly amazing and remain consistently strong in what they do and
are professional and caring. Despite the pandemic, the nursery continues to provide engaging activities for her and we really enjoy the emails that show this as well as what she gets up to during the day. The staff are also supportive of our concerns and work with us to help guide us with her learning and development. We also receive regular updates about the menu which really helps us understand the nutrition and balanced diet she is eating. She once told us that she had a chocolate cake for pudding which was made out of beetroot! Very healthy indeed! We love Little Adventurers dearly. They have truly given us a continued positive experience who are supportive of children and families.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

Thank you so much for your wonderful review of our nursery. It means the world to know that parents can see that their children are so happy at Little Adventurers. We are so proud of our team and it is lovely to be able to share reviews such as this with them - they will really appreciate receiving such feedback. We are looking forward to planning 'Covid friendly' extra-curricular activities for the forthcoming summer and thank you for your positive feedback regarding our nursery menu - we try really hard to provide optimum nutrition to our little ones and believe in promoting healthy lifestyles to our children and their families. Please consider joining our Parent Forum Meetings (if you haven't already) where we discuss life behind the scenes and our developments for the future. Thank you again.

We are absolutely delighted that our daughters have the opportunity to attend such a great nursery. I have the utmost confidence in the nursery and their ability to, support, nourish and develop our children while in their care and it gives us both a great deal of comfort to know that they have such
a wonderful time in such a supportive environment while we are at work.
COVID has served to highlight what a great nursery this is. I am confident in the measures they have put in place to prevent the spread between parents, staff and children and they have communicated frequently and thoroughly throughout the pandemic.
Our children have a wonderful time at nursery, the staff are engaging, fun and really bring out the best in our children's personalities, it is a joy to see photos of them having such a lovely time at nursery and to hear all about their games, adventures, stories and learnings when they come home. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.

Reply from Chris Ford, Marketing Manager at Little Adventurers Nursery

Thank you so much, Claire, for writing this fantastic review for us. It is really heartwarming to hear such positive feedback and most appreciated by all. We have all worked really hard (together) throughout this pandemic to keep everyone as safe as we possibly can whilst also keeping a warm, stimulating and fun environment for our little ones and it's just wonderful to know that as parents you are so happy with the setting. We look forward to many more adventures for the up and coming Spring and Summer with your little ones. Thank you once again - we always share our reviews with the whole staff team - they will love hearing this.

I would like to thank the manager and all the staff for making his time at nursery so enjoyable and profitable. The nursery workers are so caring and understanding that he felt safe and secure, and loved his time there. He has developed into a confident well-rounded boy who is inquisitive and has a
thirst for knowledge. The wide range of activities you provide have challenged him both physically and intellectually and have enabled him to reach his full potential. I am sure he will move onto school and flourish because of the excellent opportunities he has experienced under your care and guidance. Many thanks to you all.

The manager takes such pride and care over the nursery and every single child inside. She knows every child's name and is available to them and parents when they need her. The staff are incredible and work tirelessly to keep the children happy. The key workers in our daughter's room put a huge amount
of effort into settling her, she settled after her first week and has skipped in excited to start her day ever since. We never have to worry dropping her off - even if her keyworkers aren't around we all feel safe with any member of staff there. They provide fantastic meals, make sure children brush their teeth and have an incredibly holistic approach to childcare. It's an amazing feeling knowing that when you drop your child off to go to work they are looked after, fed well, and given all the attention and play they desperately need at a young age. It's the people that make this nursery, a fabulous, safe home away from home full of people who genuinely care for each and every child.

We have worked hard to build our fabulous team and are really proud of them all - as you say, every staff member is familiar with children that aren't necessarily in their nursery rooms which is lovely and helps us to make our nursery even more 'home from home'. Thanks again Anne-Marie, the team will love hearing your comments.

I would like to thank Little Adventures Nursery for my child’s three years in your care. My child went from being quiet and quite shy (@18 months) to a vibrant, assertive and sociable child ready to go to "big school". We will miss the beautiful and bright nursery with the best staff you could wish
for to look after your child. The staff are skilled and consistently focused on my child's development while learning and most of all, having fun. The manager and her team are committed to creating a warm and friendly environment for the children so they can feel comfortable and safe.
Lessons have been learned during a difficult and unprecedented period during lockdown, now post-Covid, my child practically just settled right back in with her friends and staff. Well done to all the staff for a successful and seamless re-start.

Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. We are so pleased that your little one has enjoyed their time with us over the past three years, how quickly that has gone and we've had so many adventures along the way. The staff team will be overwhelmed with your compliments and we are so proud of them all, especially how everyone had adapted to new regimes post-Covid. We hope your little one goes on to enjoy big school in September and that her foundation years with our nursery have given her confidence and a love of learning to embrace the next stage of her journey at primary. Many thanks once again, we appreciate all reviews and share them with the whole team.

I love the nursery, my little boy is so happy there, which makes leaving him so much easier. He runs in and cuddles the staff and doesn’t look back. They do so many activities and are always outside at least once a day (weather permitting!) I don’t worry at all when he is there. The food is so varied
and nutritious. The staff are all lovely and know the children very well. I couldn’t be happier with the nursery and would recommend to anyone.

I first started looking for nurseries when I was due to return to work and my son was nine months old. I had been looking at different nurseries for a while and was just about to give up hope that a good nursery actually existed when I heard about a new nursery opening called "Little Adventurers".
From the moment I stepped in, I knew there was something different about this nursery. It was clean and the staff were so friendly and the kids seemed genuinely happy. After my visit, I signed my son up and never looked back.
My son has now started school but my daughter is still at Little Adventurers. They both love it there and have such a good relationship with the staff. One thing I really love is that the staff, even if they are not in your child's room know the name of each child that goes to the nursery and it is definitely a home away from home for us now.
I would highly recommend Little Adventurers to anyone looking for a nursery.

Little Adventurers is a fantastic nursery. Leaving your most precious person in life to be cared for by someone other than you is extremely hard and they make it a lot easier to do this. Having the confidence that your child is safe and having such a joyous time makes a working parents life a great
deal easier. I have the utmost faith and confidence that my child is being well looked after while having fun with his friends. Nothing is too much bother for them and I am so grateful for all they have done for me and my family over the past three years. I will be extremely sad when my child has to leave to go to school.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for Little Adventurers 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.807 for Little Adventurers Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (171 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.807

  • 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 Adventurers Nursery is based on 17 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 17 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.

Lewis said that when he first went into childcare his passion was just about working with children but now he has developed that further and (along with having the experience of 4 of his own children) believes in keeping children happy and extending their interest through play. Lewis says, “Working at Little Adventurers has been one of the best supportive environments I have come across. It feels like a family here and it makes it a pleasure to continue my journey in early years education.” For us, it is great to have a male practitioner here at Little Adventurers and Lewis is such a hit with all our little ones!
