Both of my little boys attend this nursery for while and I couldn't be happier with our experience.
They adapted really well and absolutely love it there. The teachers are incredibly caring, attentive, and always share such positive energy. My older son even wakes up in the morning asking to go to
nursery - which says a lot!
I'm truly grateful for the love and dedication they show every day.

I am excited to share my positive experience with Little Tigers Nursery, where my son attended from ages 2 to 4 before starting Reception in September 2024. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to other parents.
During his time there, I saw my son thrive and now my daughter is in the babies' room,
benefiting from the exceptional lead and highly qualified staff who uphold high standards of care and education.
The staff are professional and create a warm, welcoming environment for both children and parents. Communication is excellent, keeping me informed and engaged in my children's progress. They are always committed to promoting learning and development through engaging activities.
The manager is particularly kind and professional, promptly addressing any queries to ensure a smooth experience for everyone.
Overall, it has been a wonderful experience for my family, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a nurturing educational environment for their children.

I can't express how much my family appreciate and love the nursery and how wonderful they have looked after my child. My child went into the baby room at 9 months old and now turning 2. I was anxious about how he would settle into the nursery and as a first-time mum, it was nerve-racking. However, from
the first day, my child was surrounded with care, love, warmth, fun and play. My child is very happy and has developed so much and has built a strong bond with his peers as well as his careers, singing their names. The staff are amazing, patient, generous and kind. Every day I feel reassured that my child will be safe and cared for in a qualitative way. The room is vibrant and organised. I stay up to date with my child's daily activities. As a parent, we appreciate the consistent communication. I will definitely suggest this nursery to friends and family.

I know they will be delighted to receive such a positive endorsement. Thank you.

I can't recommend Little Tigers Nursery highly enough! We enrolled our baby at 8 months old, and now, at one year, we've seen such incredible progress. The baby room is filled with nurturing and caring staff who create a safe, loving environment where our baby has thrived. The songs and activities,
from painting to sand play, are thoughtfully designed to encourage motor skills, language development, and creativity.
The settling-in process, which gradually increased hours, was perfect for easing the transition for both our baby and us. The management team, have been so supportive, answering every question and easing our anxieties, especially since we have no other help. The chef deserves a special mention for preparing nutritious meals that have expanded our baby's palate.
Little Tigers feels like a true village supporting our family. We truly love every single staff member who takes care and help us with our little one.

So happy I found this nursery! My little one started just before she turned 9 months and we were very worried because she was so small but everyone took such good care of her. Now she's almost 1 year old and she loves to go to nursery. She loves everyone who works there because they have been so warm
and welcoming towards her. The staff are amazing, warm and friendly with a good ratio of staff to children. I couldn't recommend them enough!

We have been delighted with Little Tiger Day Nursery since our twin girls started attending in 2023. The warm and welcoming atmosphere immediately put us at ease, and the exceptional staff have consistently gone above and beyond in caring for our children.
The thoughtfully designed curriculum blends
educational activities with play, keeping our girls engaged and excited to share their daily experiences. Safety and cleanliness are top priorities at Little Tiger, providing us with great peace of mind.
Communication is excellent, with regular updates and photos that keep us connected to our daughters' daily lives. Now, as our girls transition to primary school, they are well-prepared and excited for their new challenge. We highly recommend Little Tiger Day Nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing, enriching, and safe environment for their children.

Our son enjoyed his time at Little Tiger Nursery from September 2022 until August 2024. The nursery is very well organised since the current manager joined. The activities are well defined and the food is good. I love the app that they use that allows us to follow our son's development over time, receive
invoices and send messages. The behavioural progress reports are also so well-written and detailed.

I would like to thank the team at the nursery for their exceptional care and dedication. My son is having a hard time settling and from the moment I communicated his settling issues, they took swift action and showed remarkable understanding and initiative. Their commitment to adapting his schedule
to his needs demonstrated not only their professionalism but also their deep empathy and insight into child development.
They recognize the uniqueness of each child and ensure they feel safe and secure in their environment. The patience and care shown by the team in the baby room have truly made a difference in this transition. I would gladly recommend this nursery to anyone seeking a nursery. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for their outstanding efforts.

Reply from Chris Holmesnt, Owner at Little Tigers Day Nursery and Preschool

Little Tigers is the best ever. They took care of my daughter and took her by the hand to be better. They care about details. The principal is very diligent and follows up on the nursery children with all enthusiasm and energy. The teachers are wonderful. They are warm embraces, patient, and dealing
with the children excellently. Thank you very much, Little Tigers.

Thank you to the manager and her team for the continued support and efforts in providing my child with the utmost care and learning experience. She was able to identify my daughter's needs very quickly and put an exceptionally detailed plan in place for her. I am so amazed that the ‘plans and goals’
have and are being met, this is rare to find.
I’m so pleased to see my daughter's progress and ever so grateful for all the effort put into her growth by the team.
I’m genuinely so happy with my daughter attending Little Tigers Nursery! Thank you again for having such a positive impact on my daughter and most importantly thank you for caring! Words cannot express. Thanks to one member of staff in particular for your attention to detail, you're amazing and will go so far! Thanks!

My 11-month-old has attended Little Tigers Nursery since the end of September 2023.
We had just moved to London and I was very worried about leaving my young daughter at the nursery. Fortunately instead I've found such a warm and welcoming environment and my daughter settled there very fast, she's
happy to spend time there. The staff are really caring and supportive. I love that they care a lot about children's development, I've noticed such great progress in my child after attending the nursery activities. Both the manager and staff are always available for any need. I would strongly recommend Little Tigers!

My 3-year-old and 2-year-old twins attend Little Tigers Nursery for a while now. They are very happy there and it feels like a second home to them. All of the staff are really dedicated, hard-working, caring and supportive. The feedback is great and you can see that they really care about children's
development. The manager answers all the questions I have straight away and is so easy to work with. Also, since she took over, there have been many amazing changes and as a parent, I feel so lucky to leave our children in such capable hands.

My two daughters have had the privilege of attending this nursery, and it has been an exceptional experience for both of them. My eldest has now transitioned to school, and I must say she was exceptionally well-prepared, taking her new school environment by storm.
One outstanding aspect of this nursery
is their commitment to providing each child with a personalized daily plan and specific targets. It's truly impressive how they consistently meet these goals, ensuring that every child's individual needs are met.
As parents, we greatly appreciate the meticulous record-keeping and adherence to best practices. Everything at this nursery is conducted meticulously, making it easy for us to review records or incident reports as needed. It's clear that they prioritize the well-being and development of the children under their care.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.939)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.939) out of 10 for Little Tigers Day Nursery and Preschool 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 28 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 28 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 4.939 for Little Tigers Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (312 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 329 Ratings = 4.939

  • 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 Tigers Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 28 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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8, which has been reached with 28 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.
