February 12, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter attends this pre-school for 12 hours a week.
She really looks forward to coming here, especially the climbing area.
It took a little while for her to go in by herself without a few tears but the staff were so good and reassured her.
She has learnt so much since being here. Her speech has improved and she almost knows the alphabet completely.
I would definitely recommend Little Barn Owls for anyone needing a pre-school.

February 12, 2021 at 12:00 amWe love this pre-school, my daughter went here in 2018 and loved it and now my son has just started.
I absolutely love the care and support given, the ladies really do try their best for each child. My son has settled so well in the month he has been attending, he is already learning so much and absolutely adores his key worker.
Keep up the good work Little Barn Owls Pre-school!

February 12, 2021 at 12:00 amLittle Barn Owls were so professional, caring and patient with my daughter who found it very difficult to settle into nursery, they gently encouraged her and the whole process was done at the speed suitable for my daughter. It is a fabulous place for children to thrive and build confidence and I would recommend Little Barn Owls 100%! They have exceeded themselves in how they have managed and adapted the setting during the current pandemic, as a parent I have been regularly updated on any changes which has given me no doubt that nursery is the safest and most beneficial place for my child to be. Thrilled to have found this little gem!

February 13, 2021 at 12:00 amMy 3 year old son is at this preschool and enjoys every day that he attends.
He has a good bond with the staff especially his key members of staff. If you have problems with certain aspects of learning the staff are always on hand with new ideas and try to help introduce ways to make life easier.
The building is a perfect size for a preschool and has a good outdoor space. It is also helpful that you can drop your child off early and not have to stick to a 9 am drop off.
I always feel secure in the knowledge that my child is being cared for and they are in a safe environment.

February 13, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter loved it here, the key workers are so loving and caring and it’s everything you would want when leaving your child. Not only did they support my child but they also supported me when needing help. I would highly recommend! My daughter left in September for school but she still wishes she was back at Little Barn Owls. I wouldn’t pick any other preschool.

February 13, 2021 at 12:00 amThis is a wonderful preschool. The staff are great and our little girl settled really quick in this new setting and is making new friends. She is always excited to go and asks each morning if it is a preschool day.

February 13, 2021 at 12:00 amAbsolutely amazing staff, everyone one of them is kind and caring and ready to talk. They provide a fantastic environment for my child to develop and I feel happy and safe to send my child in their care. Wish I could make it more than 5 stars.

February 15, 2021 at 12:00 amI can not recommend this preschool enough. The setting itself is lovely with a wonderful outside space and a variety of toys and activities. My son was two when starting and had previously had separation anxiety and what with the first lockdown I was really apprehensive how he would settle, however, the manager and her team were amazing while he was settling in and it did not take long for my son to love it. The staff are friendly and caring and give detailed handovers. Nothing seems too much trouble. He is loving his time here and talks about his friends which, given the current situation, I’m pleased he is still able to socialise in a safe way. I have a safe and happy child who is definitely learning and developing while playing I can’t ask for more would highly recommend.

November 29, 2022 at 12:00 amThe staff are very friendly and approachable. I have seen a big difference in my daughter since coming. Her confidence has grown and she loves to come and play. She has met and made a lot of friends already who I am sure will go to her primary school (when the time comes). Thank you Little Barn Owls for bringing out the best in my little girl.

December 8, 2022 at 12:00 amCouldn’t ask for a better experience of playschool for you son. Very attentive always welcoming, at pick up they always tell me how his day was and my son is happy to tell me who he played with and what he has done.

December 8, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending the nursery now for three months and he absolutely loves it! We moved him from his previous one which he had attended since a baby and I was worried about the transition, but the staff could not have been better. He adores all the staff there and I couldn’t recommend the nursery more.

December 8, 2022 at 12:00 amBoth of my kids have been to this nursery and had amazing experiences. Would recommend again and again. The staff are brilliant. Both children learnt so much whilst also having a great time. Communication between staff and parents is good and they really do try to help in any way. They are compassionate and go above for the children.

December 29, 2022 at 12:00 amMy child settled so well as soon as she joined Little Barn Owls Pre-school and she’s always willing to go in. It’s not bad at all for children, the teachers are always polite when giving feedback, I have never experienced any negativity.

January 12, 2023 at 12:00 amFantastic nursery with amazing friendly staff. My little boy loves going and always tells me about his fun filled day. The staff are all so helpful and are amazing with the children. They always do something different each day. I will be sending my youngest when he is old enough to go. Can’t praise and thank the staff enough for everything they have done and continue to do.

February 8, 2023 at 12:00 amAll three of my children have attended Little Barn Owls and It is absolutely wonderful! It’s an incredible preschool with kind, caring and efficient staff. Knowing that the people taking care of your child are giving them the best care and experiences is all you can ask for. I highly recommend Little Barn Owls to anyone whos looking for somewhere awesome for their little one.

February 8, 2023 at 12:00 amMy twins absolutely love Little Barn Owls, as did my oldest son who joined as soon as it opened! All the staff are lovely and so caring, we have never had any problems. Communication is great and nothing is too much to ask.

February 8, 2023 at 12:00 amReally friendly staff and make you feel welcome from the first day. A great team that keeps you updated with what your child has been up to in the day. My child always comes out bouncing to show me what he had made or what he has been up to. Thank you.

February 8, 2023 at 12:00 amLittle Barn Owls have been absolutely amazing for our son and we could not rate the highly enough. They have been wonderful and getting to know our son and really understand him. They keep excellent communication links between parents and staff and our son is always so happy to walk in every morning and tell us what lovely things he has done at the end of each day there.

February 8, 2023 at 12:00 amThe staff are so accommodating to all the children’s needs, you can see it’s not just a job they generally care for each child, they also have so much time for the parents and always offer their time and a chat if they need to. My son is thriving there and loves going, after being at another nursery, the difference to how he is now, making friends, and enjoying his time goes to show they are fantastic at their job, the nursery setting is lovely, with a great variety of toys to suit a wide range of children’s interest, all the staff are friendly, smiley and chatty, I highly recommend it.
