December 30, 2020 at 12:00 amThank you Little Cubs for the amazing job you do. What a fantastic place. We looked at so many nurseries for our son, and yours is the best we looked at. Your great reputation does you justice. Keep up the good work.

December 30, 2020 at 12:00 amWe thoroughly recommend Little Cubs Honor Oak. Our child attended for almost two years and only left because we moved overseas. The nursery is a lovely setting with a good garden play area and a diverse range of food. The key drawcard to this nursery though is the staff led by the warm and intelligent manager. The baby room leader is wonderful and caring and incredibly dedicated. The staff in the toddler room are equally as impressive. We were very sad to leave Little Cubs but are thankful for our child’s time there.

February 4, 2021 at 12:00 amThis is the most amazing nursery. Head and shoulders above every nursery in Forest Hill. We have been so impressed with the whole experience, from their customer service when we enquired, to the fantastic care and education they provide. The headteacher leads such a passionate team, and they genuinely seem to care and have high standards, which is not a given. Thank you.

February 4, 2021 at 12:00 amIncredible! Such friendly, bubbly staff and a personal touch that is second to none. Always a daily debrief of the days activities with every parent and knowledge of all aspects of their day is fed back. Plus – love the app to see pictures during the day!

February 10, 2021 at 12:00 amI would deeply recommend Little Cubs as it is a wonderful nursery. The staff there take really good care of the children, they all are very happy, which leads to happy parents! What a relief when you know you are leaving your precious child in good hands, this definitely helps to have a day apart from your child.

February 19, 2021 at 12:00 amOur little one (11 months) recently started at Little Cubs. Obviously being a lockdown baby he has had very little contact with others outside our home. The staff at Little Cubs have been fantastic allowing our little one, now only 4 weeks in, to feel right at home. We have already noticed a leap in their development and this is down to the activities that are being offered and the loving care they receive on a day to day basis.
All members of staff are available to talk through worries/concerns or just answer any question no matter how silly they may seem. Every drop off and pick up we are welcomed with a huge friendly smile, which is something we have benefited from over the past few weeks.
The setting and space that the nursery has is fantastic, it has really taken into account the level of development for each room age. The outdoor area that is available is fantastic for explorers of all ages.

March 10, 2021 at 12:00 amI have two children at this nursery and have found the staff across the past 3 years to be friendly, enthusiastic and hardworking. Both my kids love going and have made really close bonds with their teachers. The staff all know every parent and I feel their attention to detail to things like who’s who and the individual child’s likes and dislikes makes it such a positive environment.

July 14, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter started at Little Cubs Honor Oak Park in March 2021 when she was 12 months old. I was very nervous about her starting nursery but she has absolutely flourished. The care in the baby room was beyond what I expected. We were kept up to date with phone calls and photos, and we even got some laminated pictures of her doing some artwork which are now pride of place in the kitchen.
This was the first time my daughter had ever really been apart from her parents, but she settled in extremely quickly. I put this down to the love and care shown to her by the staff at Little Cubs. She naps really well there and the food she is given looks delicious and very healthy and varied.
I can’t recommend enough this nursery!

November 23, 2021 at 12:00 amWe had recently moved to the Forest Hill area and chose Little Cubs Academy Honor Oak Nursery for our daughter. We couldn’t be happier with the decision. The nursery staff are warm and welcoming and my daughter has created a lovely bond with them all. Out of number of visits made to the other nurseries in Forest Hill, we felt right at home at Little Cubs the moment we walked in. A lovely nursery that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

December 13, 2021 at 12:00 amI think my experience is like that of a lot of parents – it’s incredibly hard to leave my child when I have to go to work each day. But it becomes a lot easier when I’m dropping my daughter at Little Cubs Academy in Honor Oak Park. There are so many great things about the place – its inviting and warm environment, the activities and style of developmental engagement, the healthy, home-cooked meals, the communication with parents and use of the Famly app. But the thing that’s most important to me, and clearly has had the biggest impact on my daughter, is the relationship with the people who work there. They have built a deep and personalised relationship with her, and she is thriving because she is being supported, nurtured and cared for in such a genuine way. It may be hard to leave her each morning, but when she gets home energised and happy from a great day at nursery, I know we’re doing the right thing!

December 22, 2021 at 12:00 amMy toddler started Little Cubs in September 2021 aged three and was immediately made to feel welcome, safe, and happy. The settling in period was very well considered and after just two days he was fine going in every day and hasn’t looked back. The staff are kind, caring, and engaged with the children which is noticeable on collection and drop off. There is a great blend of learning, play, and a variety of activities and we’ve been really impressed with the whole environment.

January 12, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son goes to Little Cubs Academy’s nursery in Forest Hill and I could not recommend them enough! The staff at the nursery are so caring and welcoming, they have always made our family feel comfortable and at home. Our son loves going to nursery and has learnt so much from being there, he has come out of his shell and is more confident in social settings

March 1, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son attended Little Cubs academy from the age of one to three and a half years and it’s only because we were moving out of London that we reluctantly had to take him out! We could not recommend them more and have done so to multiple friends and family in search of childcare locally. The staff’s attention and care to the children are obvious and how they have the energy at the end of the day to give each parent a debrief of their child’s day, I don’t know – but I commend them! They really understand the challenges of being a working parent and the reassurances we need to know our child is in the best care whilst we are at work. After a brief stint at another nursery which was not a good fit for us, we were so grateful for the Little Cubs team and how they accommodated us and really engaged with and cared for our son – we really witnessed him thrive in his time there. We will miss it!

May 10, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son and daughter have attended Little Cubs Academy in Honor Oak and our experience with the nursery has been brilliant.
The nursery is well managed, the food is good and – most importantly – my children have been in the care of wonderful staff. The nursery also has great outdoor space. Our children have been extremely happy throughout their time at Little Cubs.

May 26, 2022 at 12:00 amYou have always been super helpful with all our requests to move around days, and the care my son has received has been second to none. The Deputy Manager was such a great person to entrust our eight-month-old to and everyone since has filled his days with learning, fun and excitement.

November 29, 2022 at 12:00 amOverall, we have had a great experience with Little Cubs Academy. Staff always greet you with a big smile, and you feel they genuinely care about your child and their well-being. The food and activities have been second to none, and their outdoor space is amazing. We loved the forest school at the nature reserve.

December 12, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of our children went to the nursery. We always found the the staffing team and senior management team to be very attentive and caring. We felt that our children were well prepared for school and they made many local friends. All round a very positive experience.

March 23, 2023 at 12:00 amAll the staff at Little Cubs Academy have been incredibly friendly, caring and welcoming. We moved to Forest Hill two years ago not knowing anyone, and my child has made so many great friends. The transition was very smooth and we felt that the nursery really took the time to ensure that we had all our questions answered and that my child had settled in well. The food menu is exactly the type of dishes we like to cook at home, and the curriculum has been incredibly varied. What is great is that the family owners seem to continue to invest in the nursery itself and the resources. My child always seems to come home happy, and we have been impressed with the communication from the whole team including the headteacher. It is great to see the daily activities on the app and to receive the monthly newsletter so I can see what they get up to.
