September 17, 2019 at 12:00 amThe staff at this nursery are very friendly and helpful. They have helped my little girl grow her confidence and I can now drop her off without a tear in sight. I’m so thankful to the team for all they do.

November 29, 2019 at 12:00 amChoosing a nursery as a parent was not something I did lightly. After my first initial contact with the owner, I knew there was something special about this nursery. They were so accommodating, warm and welcoming on my first visit.
My daughter has flourished since starting and we as parents are noticing huge developments at home; from, new sounds, words and exploring different foods.
The staff are amazing, the activities carried out daily are so refreshing and creative.
The girls send updates and use the nursery daily diary as additional communication which is fantastic.
The parent partnership is phenomenal and I can’t wait to watch my little girl achieve so much with the help, support and skill from all the staff. They go above and beyond, watching them with all of the children is amazing, the way they adapt to each child ensuring it is all very person-centred.
Thank you for all that you do. You are all amazing and deserve your weight in gold.

December 4, 2019 at 12:00 amThumbs up. It took me a lot of time to consider a nursery for my son, this decision wasn’t taken lightly at all. My son has been attending this fantastic nursery for three months now and I am delighted to see how excited he is to see his friends and the staff during his sessions. The team are very professional and friendly and provide detailed daily feedback on my son’s progress. The team has also been particularly supportive and patient over the last three months while my son has settled in. I have no reservations about leaving my son in the care of this nursery and have already recommended it to other families. The staff are a huge credit to this nursery.

December 13, 2019 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Little Hubbers Nursery since the week of it opening and he loves it.
My wish when choosing the right nursery was for my son to simply be happy and cared for and I am thrilled that this has been surpassed by bucket-load here! The kindness and professionalism shown by the staff (to all of us!) has been outstanding and my son has blossomed and developed so much under their care.
Each day, my son and I are greeted with smiles and welcomed by staff who are professional, supportive and very friendly, demonstrating their care for my son by recognising and treating him as individual and knowing when he requires a cuddle on those days when he doesn’t want to part from me.
At the end of every day, I am always given feedback on what my son has been doing throughout the day, this is also recorded in his personal diary.
Overall I highly recommend this nursery based on my own fantastic experience with them and their amazing, caring staff.

September 18, 2020 at 12:00 amThis nursery was recommended to us and I’m so glad it was. Our little girl has been going for a few months now and we absolutely love it. The general feel of the nursery is comfortable and inviting which is what you need if you’re nervous about letting go of your little one. The staff are very friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. The nursery itself is extremely well set out with fantastic modern facilities perfect for learning little ones. There is a good mix of learning and play and daily outdoor walks/park visits. Really really impressed and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone, and especially good for those families who need some flexibility.

September 18, 2020 at 12:00 amLittle Hubbers is the best nursery around. The staff all have amazing bonds with all the children. My child loves going, always has an amazing day and has so much fun. I have and would recommend Little Hubbers to anyone looking for a nursery that goes above and beyond to make your child’s time the best possible. One of the owners personally takes it upon herself to guarantee that you as a parent are always in the loop with what happens at nursery, how your child is and how they develop while there.

September 21, 2020 at 12:00 amVery happy to send my little girl into the nursery, knowing she will be well cared for and always has an amazing time! All the staff have made my little girl feel so welcome, and it has warmed my heart to see her happy to go in, even stopping them in the street to say hello. Over the moon that I can see what she’s doing through the day through their Facebook page, it’s lovely being able to watch my baby learn and grow.

December 2, 2020 at 12:00 amMy son has been going here since not long after they opened. All was well for the first six months but since I dropped his hours the owner has been extremely unhelpful regarding changing hours and various issues. Since my son went back after lockdown the care he has been receiving is awful. He only went 3 mornings a week 3 hours per session. On one week he came home in different clothes each day he was there as his nappy had soaked. Almost every time I’ve picked him up his nappy has been either wet or bulging. I have now taken him out of the nursery and the manager has done nothing but argue, be very rude, and unprofessional despite me being very reasonable. Glad I’ve decided not to send him back as that’s not the type of person I want around my son. I’m yet to receive my deposit back and have now been blocked for asking when I will get it. Have kept all of the messages and taken screenshots, and if this isn’t sorted I will be reporting the nursery and taking legal action.

December 3, 2020 at 12:00 amMy children have been attending The Little Hubbers since 2019, after starting at a well-known nursery elsewhere, I found the setting just wasn’t right. I felt very anxious looking for another nursery. Over a year on at Little Hubbers and both my children absolutely love it. It speaks for itself when they both ask to go into nursery, which is fantastic for myself and husband to hear. The activities are absolutely fantastic, both my children enjoy, rockpool school, getting to hold and interact with many creatures, daily forest walks and so much more. They’ve also made some great friends, which is absolutely lovely to see. I find it very easier to interact with the staff, who are always quick to reply and help in any way they can.

December 18, 2020 at 12:00 amThe staff are fantastic, very welcoming and totally focused on the children and their well-being. The nursery has so much for the children to do, sensory rooms, dressing up, countless games, dolls etc and the staff take them out twice a day for walks, spotting things around their local communities. They have parties and dancing and themed activities. My daughter absolutely loves going and is disappointed when it’s not a nursery day! I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

August 10, 2022 at 12:00 amI absolutely love the nursery and the staff. I honestly feel like they are all there because they love the kids. My toddler goes running in. All of the staff are lovely. Really lovely and caring nursery.

September 2, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son absolutely loves this nursery and I’ve never had any issues in the nearly six months that he has been attending. He strolls in happy every morning and even happier when he leaves. The staff are very loving towards him and he clearly adores them which is what you want when you’re trusting somebody to watch your child three days a week. They are also very helpful with any queries and issues on my part which is amazing. The day trips and walks that they take the children on are also brilliant. Overall, a fantastic nursery, definitely recommend it.

September 2, 2022 at 12:00 amWhat a lovely nursery this is. My son has recently graduated after spending 2 years here. He has come on so much during this time and is now ready for big school. The staff team are great, friendly and always keep in touch with us via the app. He goes out every day and visits lots of exciting places. I love receiving all the pictures from the day and seeing his tired face when I collect him. I recommend this nursery to everyone. They really do provide an exciting learning environment for all the children.

September 4, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little one has been at this nursery for nearly two years, she’s grown with them, starting in the baby room and now into preschool and I haven’t been able to fault then at all. As a baby, she was in cloth nappies which was a bit unusual but the staff learned and worked with us very well. They’ve aided her through everything, as we’ve gone through their classes and they appear to do everything they can to ensure that she had a fulfilling and enjoyable experience that’s appropriate for her. Supporting our gentle/responsive parenting approach in the way that support and guide the children. Other things that we particularly like is that the children are taken out every day (unless there’s some extreme weather that would render it unsafe for the children), as well as having fantastic facilities for the children to explore.

September 7, 2022 at 12:00 amThe children go on lots of day trips on the ferry, metro and to the aquarium which other nurseries don’t offer. There is no garden but the children go to the park everyday, and leave the nursery for trips twice a day. Our little one is really well cared for and we are very happy with the nursery and highly recommend.

September 8, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter absolutely loves it here. She has the best time playing with their high-tech equipment, the soft play and the cosy sensory room. The kids go on regular days out to the park, the beach trips to South Shields, the farm – my daughter always comes home happy and tired. The staff are great too, they genuinely care about the kids and their families. Nothing is too much trouble and they tend to individual needs fantastically. I can’t praise this nursery enough, I’ll be sad when she has to leave.

September 8, 2022 at 12:00 amReally lovely staff, always friendly, lovely connection with all children, always there to help, my children love all staff, always on great adventures i.e the park museum farms and trips down to feed the fish. Never a fault with Little Hubbers.

September 22, 2022 at 12:00 amThis nursery has been absolutely amazing for my little girl from the age of 1-2 years old. She has thrived and been so excited to attend. Lots of outings, trips, activities, learning and love shared here. Would highly recommend. The staff are very dedicated and loving.

September 22, 2022 at 12:00 amAmazing nursery, staff are amazing and ensure your child is well looked after and keep you updated with all goings on; from going out on adventures, baking, sensory time, this place has been amazing for my daughter, but has got her prepared for her new adventure in her new school. Thank you so much for everything the staff have done.

September 26, 2022 at 12:00 amLittle Hubbers is a brilliant nursery. My son has been there just over a year and has loved every minute. The staff are attentive and caring every day, you fully trust you are leaving your child in safe hands. They do trips out and activities almost every day and he looks forward to his days at nursery with his friends.
