Friendly and kind staff who are always so welcoming. We love the app updates and communication has been excellent. We regularly receive reviews on how our daughter is getting on and what she has been doing in the day, as well as which developmental milestones she is working on at the moment. Thank you
so much to everyone!

Little Trees is an absolutely lovely nursery, the staff are all so friendly and knowledgeable. We love having the app to keep us updated on our child's day and their development. It also allows for quick and direct communication with the staff when needed. Our son really enjoys nursery and has been
growing and developing so much since he started attending.

My child has been attending the nursery since I went back to work after maternity leave. She loves it and all of the staff have been excellent since the beginning. Would and have recommended this nursery to others. There seems to be lots of varied activities, including extracurricular. My child is happy
and so are we.

Our son has been attending Little Trees for about 1 year now and he loves it. The staff are really caring and kind and we know that he is in good hands. Recently, we have been really impressed with how they have supported us with potty training. We have heard of other nurseries who have been very strict
about imposing their own rules, e.g. if a child wets themselves more than 3 times they have to wear a nappy, but at Little Trees, we have felt really listened to and respected and we know that they are consistent with our son as we are at home. Our son loves the pirate ship and playing in the big outdoor space. They do a lot of creative and stimulating activities with him (which means we don't have to at home!) and we feel that they really know our son as an individual and respect his needs for playing with others and also playing independently.

Our child goes to Little Trees Christ Church and he absolutely loves it. From drop off to pick up he is having such a lovely time. He is always busy learning new skills, new songs, new dance moves or exploring lots of different sensory activities. The staff and management are always friendly and attentive.
We never had any problems and all the questions we had or have are always answered in a professional but friendly manner. We love the fact that they are always using the outdoor space regardless of the weather. Our little one is thriving and we couldn't be more happier especially when we are busy at work thinking about him, we know he is well looked after and he is having a great time.

Lovely setting and my daughter is always happy and excited to attend, the staff here really care for the children and she has a great bond with them all including the management team. They also have a good parent relationship and I always feel confident to discuss things with them if needed. The children
always look like they are doing great engaging activities both indoors and outdoors and the garden is a really great asset to have for them to explore.

Really happy with the level of care provided; the staff are always excited to greet our child in the mornings and provide excellent summaries of their day.
They have been really forward-leaning and communicative around development, such as changing nap times, which has been greatly appreciated.
Our
child appears to be incredibly happy to be dropped off with the staff, and is completely tuckered out at the end of each day; surely a good sign!

The nursery is very warm and welcoming to new children, they make sure they keep up to date on everything my baby is doing and encourage her to learn and develop. From the start, they have been conscientious and understanding of what the children need and are very attentive.
They have a variety of
toys, activities and learning and they nurture which is all you can wish for. I have had a brilliant experience since my daughter has attended and would highly recommend Little Trees Christchurch Nursery.

Little Tress Christchurch has been an exceptional nursery/preschool for our daughter. Our daughter has thrived through the care, attentiveness and encouragement of all the staff involved. To us, dropping off our daughter, who runs into nursery happy and excited and is picked up eager to tell us about
her day, with that same joy, is a testimony in itself. Our daughter is very ready to start school but this nursery will be missed. Their access to beautiful outdoor space and commitment to extracurricular activities, we believe has truly nurtured our child while not in our care. We would recommend it to any parent. Special mention to the consistently brilliant key worker.

A truly lovely preschool/nursery. A wonderful family feel, nurturing children's education and well-being. Staff know my children well even if they don't work in their rooms. My children are extremely happy and offered so much stimulation: fantastic large outdoor space, football training, music lessons,
drama lessons, the list goes on. The staff are all kind and loving, which as a mum is the most important thing!

We have been very happy with Little Trees Christ Church. The staff are all lovely and treat the children as individuals. Our little boy eats and sleeps well at nursery and often comes home with new words and skills that we haven't taught him! Their facilities are also great, particularly the outdoor
space and they make a real effort to provide a variety of activities for the children. It is on the higher end price-wise but it's clear to see where it goes. Highly recommended.

The staff here are simply outstanding, showing genuine care and dedication to every child. Their level of professionalism and warmth creates an environment where children thrive. The facilities are top-notch, providing a safe and stimulating space for learning and play. What truly sets this nursery
apart is the level of individualised care and support they offer. Each child is treated with respect and kindness, fostering not only their academic growth but also their emotional well-being. Our experience here has been nothing short of wonderful, and we wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent seeking the best for their child.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.849)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.849) out of 10 for Little Trees Day Nursery Christ Church 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 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.849 for Little Trees Day Nursery Christ Church is calculated as follows: ( (316 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 370 Ratings = 4.849

  • 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 Trees Day Nursery Christ Church is based on 31 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 46 number of registered child places is 9.2, which has been reached with 31 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.
