The staff at little explorers are simply the best! My little boy loves going to this nursery.
Staff are really understanding and extremely caring. Always keep us informed with what out little boy has been up to. Activities are planned for the children one 2 one and in groups. The garden area for the kids is lovely. The rooms are really creative and fun for the children.
My daughter has also attended this nursery, and loved going everyday to take part in all of the exciting activities.
I would recommend this nursery as it is a great stepping stone for all children before they start school

Thank you for your lovely review, we have loved having both your children here.
Callie has loved Little explorers since she first started! The staff are so friendly, kind and welcoming, she started to make her own friends and all we heard was the same names when she got home. It's been a pleasure having my child go there, the trips they take them on are great we get pictures and videos. They take them for walks in the park and all sorts of exciting adventures that children in a class room just wouldn't get! Loved everyone there and couldn't thank them or recommend them enough!

Thank you for our fantastic review, we have loved having your daughter and watching her grow. We wish her the best of luck at school.
Our daughter has really enjoyed her time at Little Explorers. She appears to have bonded well with the carers, Management and the other children. We’ve been given formal feedback and informal feedback on pick-up, which is appreciated in understanding how our daughter is developing and getting on at the nursery. Our daughter particularly enjoys the outdoor playground, which the nursery are good at using regularly.

Thank you for a lovely review.
Highly recommend little explorers to any prospective parents. 2 of my 3 children attend and my third child will start in January. I can honestly say that all of the staff feel like family to me; they all quite clearly love the children and know them very well. My children both love attending; I had to drag my son away today! I also like how the children are taken on trips to the nearby parks or sometimes further afield, but also sometimes just to play with a parachute on the field next door. Brilliant nursery!

Thank you for your lovely review. We love having both your children and can't wait for the next one to start.
I can’t fault the nursery, my eldest attended and my second is just about to graduate with my 3rd starting shortly, that itself should tell you how happy I am with the nursery.
My middle daughter has developed so much since being here, she’s a very shy child but I’ve noticed a lot, especially since moving to the preschool room her confidence growing.
My daughter has medical problems which the nursery have always took the time to understand and have dealt with very well, I’ve never doubted any of the staffs abilities to deal with her needs.
The staff are always smiley and approachable and should I have any questions or issues they are easily sorted.
The online apps and journals make it easy to see what my daughter has been up to and what meals she’s had and how much she’s eaten.
The location of the nursery also means they have great access to outdoor space which is amazing compared to most that have a small garden area.
My daughter has loved her time at little explorers. Thank you.
