Very happy with all the staff at Emersons Green little pioneers. My little one has some health issues and needs and they are extremely accommodating for this, they are getting themselves booked in for a training course for his health issues and have made sure we have a health care plan in place for
my little one. The team are outstanding in every aspect and I couldn't be happier with my choice to put my children in their care.

Our daughter loves it at Little Pioneers Emerson's Green, where she has been since she turned 1. She is soon to turn 4. She gets excited on going in each morning, and has strong bonds with her nursery practitioners. Her communication and eating has come on significantly since being at nursery, and we've
been very happy with her going there. It will be sad for us when she time comes for her to leave to go to school, but we will have fond memories!

Such a wonderful nursery, the staff are all so committed to the wellbeing and development of the children. I'm very happy that we chose to send our little boy here. He has made lovely friends and he adores all the staff and talks about them all the time.

Our son loves coming to nursery at Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Bristol Emersons Green. The staff are wonderful and kind and have really helped him to grow his confidence, learn and develop new skills and have lots of fun too, he always looks forward to going in. We get lots of great updates
on his development and also love hearing what he has been doing, which gives lots of new ideas for play at home too. The app updates are great and we also love the regular events and fundraisers that happen.
We're very happy with the nursery and highly recommend it.

After a troubled time when we have to take our daughter from nursery due to staff shortages with short notice, the nursery now seems to run smoother than before. Staff are always keen to help and our daughter loves to go and is enjoying to be there. Highly recommended.

We LOVE Little Pioneers! The Team at Emersons go above and beyond to make sure our little boy is happy, healthy and content to be there which really helps me as a parent to worry less as I know he is in the best hands.
The nursery itself is clean, modern and full of fun things to play with and my little
boy always walks through the door happy to be there. The activities planned are stimulating, engaging and have really enabled his motor skills, speech and development to be complimented which is noticeable at home as well.
As someone who works within safeguarding, the security/safeguarding of my child was the paramount factor when choosing a nursery and I can hands on my heart say Little Pioneers excel in this area. The secure entrance, intercom system and CCTV are all huge benefits to the setting. Every incident/accident/concern is always recorded and I'm always informed in an appropriate timeframe. I could go on and on about LP but truly it is an outstanding setting!

Absolutely amazing staff at the nursery. Have made my son feel so welcome and felt so at home there. Knowing that my son can go and talk to anyone of the staff within the room is an absolute credit to this nursery. They genuinely care about him, and also my family. Could not be prouder of my son being
at Little Pioneers.

We're very happy with the care and attention my child receives at Little Pioneers Bristol Emersons Green. The staff are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. They truly understand the developmental needs of young children and create an environment that encourages learning, exploration,
and growth. Every day, my child comes home with new things they've learned, whether it's a fun craft project, a new word, or a song they've learnt. The facilities are bright, clean, and safe, with plenty of space for the children to play, learn, and interact with each other. I love the variety of activities they offer- everything from creative play and music to outdoor adventures and structured learning time.
I also appreciate the improved communication between the nursery and parents. Regular updates, pictures, and feedback keep me informed about my child's progress and well-being, and I always feel confident that they are in good hands. It's been a great experience for our family.

Only ever had positive experiences. The staff are fantastic. The nursery itself is very well maintained and has everything a child needs. My child is very supported here and has learnt so much. They have very much benefited from attending the nursery as their social skills have improved as well as their
learning. My second child is due to start here soon and I am confident that they will benefit just as my eldest has.

Little Pioneers Emerson's Green have been amazing in looking after my daughter. My daughter has grown so much since joining the nursery in May 2024 and that is down to the experience she has at Little Pioneers. Her key worker is thoughtful and cares about her needs and her development, and the team
in Babies all have a good relationship with my daughter. She gets hearty and healthy meals everyday and always has a good time at nursery.

Amazing Preschool also supported not just my son but also looked after me at Preschool while I was undergoing treatment for cancer. He just simply loved going there and was smiling when I took him and when I collected him. The teachers were amazing and my friends for life, well recommended preschool.

Our son has loved his time at Little Pioneers. He has grown so much in confidence thanks to the support of his key worker and the other staff. The pre-school setting is so lovely and spacious with a great outdoor space. The staff have been so supportive and welcoming since day one. We are so glad we
chose Little Pioneers to prepare our son for school and are so grateful to three particular members of staff who have made this last 18 months so enjoyable for our son.

Our daughter joined Little Pioneers, Emersons Green in January 2022, the month of the grand opening of the nursery. The overall experience has been excellent. She settled in really well with the staff and other children. She has made some amazing friends over the last year and a half.
The staff team
have been amazing, we have always received thorough handovers at the end of each day, and the app is regularly updated with the activities children have participated in and the food they've been given. The teachers in the toddler's room have been a real beacon for inspiration and have been true role models to our daughter.
Our daughter has grown up so much over the last year and a half, learning an awful amount and reading her for big school.
I want to say a massive thank you to the Little Pioneers team for everything. It's a shame she cannot stay a bit longer!

My little one has loved her time at the nursery and looks forward to coming every day she’s in, she’s excited to tell me about her day when she gets home and how much fun she’s had.
My only downfalls for the nursery were the ‘extras’ that drew me to the nursery in the first place.
I loved the idea
of the bike school, mini medic and visiting the residential home, unfortunately, she never got to do any of them which really upsets me.
I understand it’s due to staffing but doesn’t stop the disappointment.
She has loved the animals that have been coming in and exploring life cycles recently. I can’t fault the women in the preschool room they have been lovely and show a keen interest in my daughter's life and adventures. Thank you.

My son has moved around nurseries due to relocation but also due to others not meeting his needs in the right way. Little Pioneers staff in the little learner's room have been beyond amazing with him and the resources and facilities are of high quality. He has been to 5 different nurseries and this
one is by far the best.

Our daughter joined Little Pioneers, Emersons Green in January and we’ve had a fantastic experience. She’s settled in with the staff and has formed great bonds with them over the last few months. The whole team have been great at keeping us updated and the photos we get of her activities during the
days are a really nice touch. We have definitely noticed how quickly she is learning and picking up new things since she started at the nursery, it’s been a really positive experience for her and ourselves making that transition back to work for me that much easier!

My son has come such a long way since joining Little Pioneers. His confidence and speech have really improved. He had a problem with biting other children for a while; the nursery dealt with it so well! They were very proactive in what could be done to address the problem, and it was resolved really
well. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.781)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.781) out of 10 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Bristol Emersons Green 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 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 4.931 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Bristol Emersons Green is calculated as follows: ( (191 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.931

  • 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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-school, Bristol Emersons Green 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.85

  • 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.
