We are deeply disappointed by the sudden termination of our children's places at Little Adventurers Victoria Park, following a complaint about a biting incident. We were given no warning, no proper explanation, and no evidence to support vague accusations of a "breach of terms" and "staff abuse." Access
to the nursery app - where our children's reports were stored - was revoked immediately. We later found out multiple families were also terminated the same day, suggesting this was not an isolated decision. After being locked out, a message from the CEO was posted accusing a "small number" of parents of harassment, without giving us a chance to respond. This experience has raised serious concerns about how parent feedback is handled and how families are treated when they speak up. We are sharing this publicly in the hope that it leads to accountability, transparency, and better treatment of others going forward.

Due to unknown reasons the CEO decided to terminate 10 families contracts. With NO EVIDENCE!. No warnings, no meetings. According to the CEO we all broke the contact by bully, harassment, aggressive behavior and more. 10 families! Once the CEO was questioned by multiple parents there was still no evidence
or reason given. The ratio of staff to kids is not right. The ofsted report isn't great and yet the CEO thinks it's great and everything is ok. He is slandering us over the communication app. We also have no had any formal way of termination just a message on the app. The same message copy and pasted to every parent. We are not allowed to retrieve any work made or any photos etc. the staff in the room are over worked and taken for fools. Handover is terrible can take sometimes up to half hour to get into the nursery, no communication from management, no accurate feedback on food and drink. No water bottles allowed they must use a cup and ask for a drink. Which is not good for Sen kids.

When my son first started (when it opened late 2022) we couldn't have asked for more. Lovely staff, good ratios, attentive care. Unfortunately, the provision has undergone multiple staff changes (6/7 managers, along with floor staff) since it opened. The floor staff have remained amazing, but just don't
have the support from higher management. More recently, a lot of staff have been let go for speaking up and raising concerns, largely about the safeguarding and care. The CEO has no childcare qualifications and does not care about the children or staff. Multiple staff members have left for the sake of their own mental health. More recently, we received a message from the CEO over the nursery app to state that my children's placements were being terminated immediately, with no explanation or evidence provided, to as what I was accused of. No further communication from the CEO or head office.
The recent OFSTED inspection says it all. Please avoid registering your little loves here.

My child was terminated from this nursery due to a group of parents trying to voice their concerns regarding the care provided to our children.
CEO sent messages informing us of their decision to terminate my child's place on Friday 1st April, and then removed our access to the app over the weekend
so he wouldn't be subjected to the raft of people trying to find out why!
Been going to this nursery for just over 2 years, and they have robbed my child of the last term of his early education before going off to school.. arguably some of the most important education time for him to have!
Its a shame really, because when we first started it seemed really good. Everything has just gone downhill from there. Unable to keep a manager for more than 6 months. Poor organisation. Completing building work whilst remaining fully open, as in they were skinning the walls with the kids running around the rooms!

I previously reviewed this Nursery a couple of years ago when my Son first started however things have changed rapidly at the setting. Since the setting first opened they have had 6/7 different managers. Staff turnaround is ridiculous when staff resigning/being let go on a constant basis. During the
latest transition to the new manager, upon drop off one day I noticed the preschool was out of ratio. 1 staff member to over 15 kids. When questioned I was told the other staff member at gone to the office. I knocked on the office door and was told they didn't realise and thought there was another member of staff their. A few weeks later I finally managed to speak to the new manager about this and some other concerns in a brief 5 minute chat which ended on a very friendly and positive note. A couple of weeks later and I out of the blue receive a message of termination from the Director on the App used by the Nursey. No right to Appeal. No further response or clarification from headoffice.

My little one has been attending this nursery since September 2024. We have nothing but positives to say about his time there. Staff are very attentive and friendly, I receive regular updates via the app and phone calls where needed. The staff at Little Adventures (Victoria Park) have supported my little
one with settling in from day one and he is now thriving and enjoying his time there. On pick-ups, staff are always positive and informative and my little one leaves smiling. Would recommend it to any parents looking for a nursery in central Bridgwater.

My daughter started back in September 2024 when she was 1y 4m old. She was a little nervous at first as most children are. But I have watched her grow in confidence since starting nursery. She is learning so many new things and surprises me some days with things I didn't know she knew. The staff have
been fantastic with her. And I love getting the updates via the app. I feel very confident about my daughter being there.

My two youngest children have been attending here since September 2024 and it has been nothing short of fantastic. The communication is the best I have known in a nursery setting with everything you would wish to know conveniently added to a personalised app each day so you know exactly how their day
has been, what they have eaten etc. The setting is immaculately clean and the facilities are of a very high standard. My children are very happy here and you can see that all of the staff genuinely enjoy their work and have a keen interest in your child's development. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

Our son has been enjoying his time at nursery since 2024, he does lots of things there and loves playing with his friends and the staff. Very clean, welcoming and friendly staff. Any issues that I have had, they deal with this straight away and always get back to me. I work in Weston Super Mare and
sometimes driving back to Bridgwater can be very busy, but when calling ahead to let them know if I'm running late, they are happy to stay on that little bit longer as traffic can't be helped. It's great to see on the app how my son is getting on at nursery, what he is doing and any words he is trying to say, it's also great to see what he has eaten during the day. Staff and management are all very professional in their roll, friendly and supportive. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you everyone, keep up with the amazing work you do.

The staff are absolutely lovely, the app is updated regularly. I've seen a huge change in my child since they started there and it's amazing seeing the amount of growth and confidence they have gained. The staff often communicate with us, making sure our child is okay if our child is off ill or if there
are any incidents in the nursery we're made aware as soon as they can let us know.

My daughter has been in the Victoria Park Nursery since June 2024, in the baby's room. She has excelled whilst attending the nursery.
Being our first child we were nervous to send our daughter into nursery, but the team at the nursery kept us regularly updated via the nursery app, with photos and messages.
The
team really engage with us at drop off and pick up, allowing me to have a better understanding on what has happened that day, any interesting things that our daughter has learnt etc.
Being a first-time parent I didn't understand that my daughter would be following a curriculum, but the team discussed this with me to allow me to get a better understanding.
The team go above and beyond to support us as a family, I couldn't rate them any higher than full marks!

My little one has recently joined Little Adventures Nursery Victoria Park and he now loves going every day. The staff are all so welcoming and approachable and I can see on a daily basis how hard they work to care for and support my son. He always talks about all the exciting adventures he has there
and all the things he is being taught. He already knows all the staff by name and talks to me about what he learns from all of them. A wonderful place where everyone comes together to care for, support and nurture little adventurers.

My 2-year-old started in January 2023 and has only evolved since then, and goes 3 mornings a week (hoping to extend into full days when she's three in July)
She has a speech delay which the staff know and are working with her on and implement so many great ideas and techniques with her, she loves seeing
the staff there (who could blame her, they are top-notch)
Really feel the care and warmth there, if there had been any issues addressed before, they have listened and followed through on. My little one regularly asks for friends (in sign language) so she must love being there. The staff always welcome us with a smile and loves seeing the kiddos.
A highlight of my day is waiting for the pictures to come onto the app and seeing what my kiddo has been up to. She has been to three nurseries overall, and would never think about swapping for another, she loves it here.

My daughter started at Little Adventures in April this year and she loves it.
I was incredibly anxious about her starting and I needn’t have been. All the staff are very welcoming and I felt at ease immediately seeing how the staff interact with the children. We love all the updates throughout the
day on the app. My daughter goes to another nursery one day a week and she says that her “Bridgwater School” is her favourite.

Fantastic nursery! My three-year-old started in January and absolutely loves it there. She actually prefers being at nursery to home! Lots of activities and all the staff are so supportive of her and us. I know when she’s had a good day as she comes home covered in mess and worn out but won’t stop talking!
Her skills have improved tremendously in lots of different areas. 100% recommend it to everyone.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.845)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.845) out of 10 for Little Adventures Nursery Victoria Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 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 4.045 for Little Adventures Nursery Victoria Park is calculated as follows: ( (131 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Poors x 2) + (29 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.045

  • 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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Adventures Nursery Victoria Park is based on 12 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 75 number of registered child places is 15. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 15 = 0.8

  • 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.

Job Title: Head of Projects

Joined: 2021

Hi, I’m Jay. I joined Little Adventures Nurseries in November 2021 originally as Nursery Development Manager. I am now Head of Projects.


I have been working in the Early Years sector since 2009. During this time, I have held various positions from Nursery Nurse to Head of Operations overseeing several nurseries. Before joining Little Adventures I was a manager of a 129-place nursery. I feel extremely fortunate to work in the Early Years as I know how important these years are for children. I completed my BA (Hons) in Early Years Education in 2017 and this has helped me further my own knowledge of how children learn and develop. I have a passion for ensuring that the teams are trained to a high standard to deliver the best quality care. I have a son of my own so understand how important it is to ensure that you choose the right setting for your children.


In my free time, I like nothing more than exploring with my little family and our collie. We absolutely love baking together, especially the tasting part.
