Our experience of this nursery has been fantastic, made possible by the excellent team of staff. The care provided is exceptional and the learning and development our son is showing is down to them. While the layout of the site limits what can be done with their outside space this doesn't restrict time spent outside with some indigenous activities! Communication and help from the team has always been superb, in all 3 rooms. I'd have no hesitation recommending this nursery. Thank you.

The staff are simply amazing, the ladies in the pre-school room are very professional, have the children's best interests at heart, I have seen my son thrive as a child and has confidently grown to be independent and confident in his social interactions and his learning. Thank you to everyone.

I am always so impressed with this nursery. I know that every child's needs are always catered for & the kids are looked after so well. The activities are always so well thought-out and vary through the week. There's a focus on development & I can see they're trying to get my son ready for his transition to school in September. The menu is great & the children are fed really well. I always like how much they encourage independence, The pre-preschoolers collect their plates & cutlery & water. I would recommend this nursery to anyone, the staff are so lovely.

My son moved nurseries so has been at Little Houghton for 6 months now. The staff have been amazing at helping him to settle in. I love how they keep building their independence at meal times with putting plates away etc & helping themselves to water. Always kept up to date with what he'es done in the day & good feedback given

Initially, my son was upset about attending nursery, leaving his mum and dad would bring tears. Over the months and years the staff have helped him and now he never wants to leave. He's made some great friends at nursery. It's going to be tough when he goes to "Big school"

The staff are warm & welcoming. My daughter feels safe and happy within the environment. Speech has developed and confidence has grown since attending. The app is a great help & insight into daily activities. All staff are approachable and there if you have any concerns or need support with anything.

Our son has been coming to the nursery for just over a year and we have seen his confidence and personality develop so much! He often talks about all the staff when at home and always looks forward to going in to nursery. He loves going for walks around the village and his trips to the park! The activities they provide are well thought out and engaging and he always has lots to talk about when we pick him up. The Friday Teddy tennis club is such a nice touch, he loves showing us his stickers. The communication on the app is great and honestly can't fault anything! Would definitely recommend!

My child absolutely loves the nursery and staff. He is always so happy to see them and they are always so happy to see him. It can be scary leaving your child with people outside of direct family for the but so reassuring when they are clearly so happy when they see each other .

The most wonderful nursery! I've been a parent of children who have attended this nursery since 2017. So a very long time now, and I have seen huge significant changes in that timespan but the one thing that always remains the most is the loving family orientated approach all staff members have with the children and also us parents/caregivers. All the staff work tirelessly to give all the children under their care the best possible start in life and all the love and dedication. My children certainly have thrived and are thriving, and it's all down to their early years experience which this nursery does extremely well. My son who started in September was my one child who struggled the most and I was so close to pulling him out as I didn't think he'd ever settle, but the manager and staff spent a lot of time reassuring me and telling me he would, some children just take that bit longer to settle in. All staff there are absolutely fantastic! Trust them implicitly! Just love them all!

My daughter has been at the nursery for nearly 4 months now. She has settled in very well. As with most children starting nursery this was a new experience for her with a few nervy tears. The staff in the baby room have made the experience as easy and relaxed as possible. They answer the door with a warm welcoming smile which puts you at ease. They greet my daughter like one of their own and wrap her up in lots of cuddles. Each day they do lots of different activities which are posted on the app. The staff make time on drop off and pick up to see how things are and give feedback on the day which I very much appreciate. Thank you to all the lovely ladies in the baby room.

My daughter absolutely loves coming to nursery here and has made strong relationships with the staff. All the staff are so warm and caring and genuinely so happy to see her develop. My daughter comes out really happy each day, she's well looked after and happy and I couldn't ask for more.

Such a wonderful nursery. Staff are amazing and go above and beyond. I love how safe it is. And how amazing they are with my son. They serve up lovely meals each day. Sadly I have one fussy child but they really encourage him to try new foods. My son loves it. He's made friends too. I have complete peace of mind, knowing he's in good hands.

We could not be happier with the nursery. All the staff work incredibly hard to make this setting a fun, safe, caring & highly engaging place for our child. We're always greeted with a welcoming & cheerful smile and our child is always very happy to be dropped off, knowing she will have an exciting day ahead. We are kept up to speed with activities during the day via the app and all additional communication, if required (illness, bumps, etc), is friendly & polite. The nursery is very well managed & is brilliant at integrating structured learning activities & varied experiences (e.g outdoor play/walks) into the daily routine. All staff in the room are clearly dedicated professionals, who make very strong genuine connections with the kids. The nursery is always willing to accommodate our needs, such as shortened nap times or specific dietary requirements. Our child has thrived here - we are incredibly thankful to the nursery and all the staff. You're all superstars!

Little Houghton is a great nursery! The staff are kind, and caring and work really hard and are always happy to receive calls, give extra feedback, and personalise care (such as around nap times). My children really enjoy doing creative activities and look forward to going to nursery.

All the staff are amazing. They look after my child very well and address any issues instantly. He is always looking forward to attending the nursery. He is full of smiles when we drop and pick up. They give detailed feedback about what my child has done for the day which includes how well he has eaten, so that we can prepare better for the evening.

After staff continued to support and settle my now 2-and-a-half-year-old into their beautiful little nursery back in September 2023, they have now also committed to doing the same for my 10-month-old. They have made me feel 1000 times more comfortable with leaving him and going back to work than I could ever have hoped to feel. They are very informative on collection, and all appear to be very caring.

Our daughter attends Little Houghton Day Nursery and so did our other two children prior to starting school. The nursery is fantastic. The best part being the staff who really do care, are friendly and help your child develop. Food is also varied and fresh.
