This is the second son my nursery has attended and I can't believe how different the experience has been, the settling in period has gone amazingly as the staff have worked alongside both me and my son. As it is a smaller a nursery we've been able to interact and get to know a lot of the staff and they have communicated with us regularly at handover and using the app, which has made us feel really at ease.

My son loves attending Little Explorers since he joined 3 years ago, and we're really glad to have found it! We always feel welcomed and engaged with. The staff are warm, friendly and professional, and we always feel at ease talking to them. The nursery has a homely feeling and the team always provides engaging educational play activities. Our son has thrived in the environment and the carers have been supporting us through key steps in his development. We get regular updates and the staff arrange welcoming afternoons and days for family to come into the nursery to share in their activities. Would definitely recommend the nursery.

We can highly recommend Little Explorers Day Nursery. They took care of our eldest from 9 months until school age and she came away with many happy memories, some life long friends and close relationships with carers. Our youngest now attends and there was no question of considering another nursery for her. The team at Little Explorers are like family and we have complete trust in them to provide the best possible care for our children whilst we're at work. The team are professional, friendly, supportive, kind and most importantly, the children love them.

We are having the best experience with our little one attending Little Explorers Day Nursery. He has been attending since July 24 and has been so well cared for. His dietary requirements are excellently catered for and we have such peace of mind with that. He is happy and developing so well with the teaching and caring environment. The use of the App means we are well informed, it is easy to pass messages and offers excellent safeguarding.

Little Explorers is a lovely home from home. My son really enjoyed his time there. Spending lots of time exploring in the garden and doing some lovely engaging activities. He had good bonds with the staff and really enjoyed the delicious meals on offer.

A lovely warm home-from-home nursery. Kind and friendly staff. Lots of interesting activities and plenty of new things to do each day. I liked the way parents were invited to events for special occasions, it was great to see all the children so happy, we were always made to feel very welcome.

Little Explorers is wonderful, and I’m so glad we discovered this little gem of a nursery. The staff plan exciting activities for the children and are great at knowing and following their interests. My son loves attending, and we never get tears at drop-off, which is such a relief! The staff are genuinely caring and supportive, and the nursery has been really flexible with booking additional days when needed. They have long hours available, which is really helpful with work. Their food is great, and my son enjoys a really varied diet there. They also have open evenings when you get to engage with other parents and see example activities they have. We’ve had some challenges lately, and the staff at Little Explorers have gone above and beyond to support us and our child through this time. We are so grateful to them and cannot recommend this nursery enough to any parents looking for somewhere to entrust their child.

Just exceptional in every way. When I drop my daughter off it feels like I'm leaving her with family. Feedback is excellent and I know I can have time to chat if needed. My daughter loves it here and has grown in confidence since joining the nursery, staff have really taken their time to nurture friendships with her peers. Utterly brilliant.

We could not be happier with the provision provided by this nursery. The staff are lovely and genuinely care about the well-being and happiness of our son. His day is full of educational and stimulating activities which we can see benefit him at home as well (baby sign language and playing skills, to name a few). We are impressed with the food offer as well.

Little Explorers is a lovely, small nursery with very good, kind, loving and friendly staff. I have never had one issue or worry in the five years across both of my children attending. They always have both loved going.

Both my children love nursery and have a great time there. I have been really impressed with my daughter's progress as she moves towards school, and how Little Explorers Day Nursery have helped her social skills especially. Her ability to play with and build friendships with other children has come on leaps and bounds in her time here. My son, too, has made so much progress and looks forward to nursery days.

I have always been very impressed with the care my daughter got from Little Explorers. The facilities and activities on offer were always impressive, the staff caring and knowledgeable, and the nursery was always clean and everything was in good condition. My daughter always enjoyed her time there without reservation and made good friends. She was very sorry to leave and we are both grateful for what a great experience the staff gave her there. I didn't always feel like the food was great value for money, as this had a supplementary cost, but this may have been down to my child having food allergies and requiring a special diet, and I am aware that the supplement also covers the cost of external education providers and resources. Overall I was extremely happy with Little Explorers and so was my daughter - she has so many good memories and made friends she will remain in touch with long afterwards. Thank you for taking such good care of her.

Lovely friendly staff, good quality equipment and a varied range of food and activities. My daughter always walks in and out of the nursery with a smile on her face and comes home talking about what she did that day. I receive updates and photos throughout the day which is great to see.

A lovely and special place, my little boy loves it. I feel very confident that he is well cared for and he is always happy to go. The staff are lovely and friendly, and they are always doing interesting and fun things with the activities.

Wonderful nursery with such loving, kind, and patient staff. We feel truly grateful to be able to leave our child somewhere where we know he is completely safe, happy, and cared for. He always comes home worn out and happy having had a lovely day. All the staff are fantastic and make so much effort for the children. The nursery puts in a lot of work to make sure the kids are learning daily as well as socialising and playing, and this really shows. My son has noticeably grown in confidence and loves going to the nursery; he even picks up his own backpack ready and runs to the door to leave on nursery mornings.

Just fantastic! I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough as a place for your little one! They made myself and my son so comfy from the start. They are just amazing with him and so accepting and inclusive. I have seen my little one grow and evolve so much. Not to mention the amazing natural learning experience he gets daily. Honestly, I am so happy!

Little Explorers Day Nursery has very caring staff here. I wish I could give more than five stars to them. My daughter has allergy problems but the nursery looks after her very carefully. She also learnt English whilst here, her mother tongue is not English. They offer many opportunities for her to build many life skills. Highly recommended.

We couldn’t have chosen a better nursery for our two boys. We looked around a few and instantly loved the home from home feel we got from Little Explorers compared to some of the bigger ones nearby. The boys are so excited in the mornings and love all the different activities that are always so well thought out by the staff.

Fantastic nursery, I’m really glad we decided to go with Little Explorers, I feel very comfortable leaving my child at the nursery knowing full well that she will be treated exactly how I want her to be. My little one has made a lot of friends since joining the nursery and comes home every week putting more and more sentences together with what she has learned from other kids/staff. The wide range of food available for kids is great and they take great care with making sure your child gets what preferences you have chosen for them and even log all the food they have eaten throughout the day. They have a huge range of activities for the kids every week and even have an app where you can view pictures of your child participating in the activities daily. Would highly recommend to anyone! The staff are very professional and friendly.
