Little Chestnuts at Thrift Farm

Absolutely wonderful staff, I absolutely adore the fact that the nursery nurses are doing a great job and working very hard to keep the children happy, safe, clean, teaching them, complying with procedures, following rules etc. To go into more detail, the nursery is very complex by employing nursery nurses who look after the kids in different ways. This way, they make sure the kids are not missing out on anything. They make a great team at Little Chestnuts, always super attentive, very cautious, extremely polite, and proactive. No issue is too big for them. At no point, I felt that my child was unsafe or not looked after in the best way possible. Thank you, ladies!

I absolutely love sending my daughter to Little Chestnuts day nursery, she always has the best time and has progressed in so many ways. All the members of staff, not only the ones who have looked after my daughter, have been amazing, so friendly and caring towards all the children.

My daughter has attended nursery since September 2020 and overall I’ve always been very happy with the care she receives. In November 2021 she changed the routine to five days a week. The staff were very helpful to go through the change and helped her settle down. Very supportive team, helpful, kind, and likeable. My daughter absolutely loves her days in nursery. I can see that she learns new things daily and develops very well. I definitely feel I made the right choice choosing this nursery and strongly recommend it to others.

I was quite nervous about sending my little one to nursery but I couldn’t have picked a better nursery for her than Little Chestnuts. From the very start, we were welcomed with loving and open arms and had felt like my daughter had been attending for years, that’s how comfortable I had been made to feel within such a short period of time.
All members of staff ensured my daughter had the best time while she was in their care. I could comfortably call up to check how my daughter was getting on and then would receive an in-depth handover when it was time to pick up. I loved how the staff followed your routine that you have at home as much as possible and that every few weeks, your child gets a focus week, which was really useful as that way myself and the staff could work together to encourage my daughter to, for example, take her first steps. It was lovely seeing the evidence of how your child is developing as you get an info pack at the end of each focus week. Thank you Little Chestnuts.

This nursery is amazing all of my children have attended. I cannot praise this nursery and staff anymore. They really create a fun and loving environment for all children. They genuinely care about your children and any needs they may have. Every member of staff are amazing at their job. I cannot recommend them or thank them enough.

My child has been with the nursery since he was 9 months old and the staff have been amazing since day 1. Nursery is clean, the outdoor space is fabulous and overall the grounds are amazing.
I never worry when I leave my child, he walks in happy to arrive and the staff treat him like their own child. Amazing staff, overall, I can’t fault this nursery, keep up the good work guys.

Absolutely love our decision to bring our daughter to this nursery.
The staff are fantastic. As soon as we had our settling-in sessions I knew it’d be a great place for our child.
The team are very caring and I feel so comfortable leaving our child at the nursery.
She has only been going for a few months and we are seeing so much change and development. The app is also great. Highly recommend.

Our son joined Little Chestnuts in August 2022 having been with a childminder since a baby. The staff went above and beyond to help him adjust and settle. He gained confidence over a few weeks and his development has come on significantly since. He absolutely loves being outside and on the farm and looks forward to going evryday. The staff supported him to master potty training, working with us to ensure they carried out things similar to home. We have three children and have experience with several settings- Little Chestnuts is certainly one of the best!

My daughter has been attending Little Chestnuts at Thrift Farm Day Nursery since she was just 16 months old. We moved over to the farm with you too. She started in babies and is now moving on to pre-school in two weeks.
I have nothing but good words to say about her experience, what a fantastic place to send your baby/child. I felt at ease from the off and the artwork she brings home is amazing. She has learnt and grown beyond my expectations with Little Chestnuts and I do and will continue to recommend the nursery to my friends and family.

My daughter has attended Little Chestnuts for a few months in the toddler room, prior to this in the baby room. Since establishing contact with the nursery I have felt supported as a parent and that every staff member has been kind, professional, and took time to build a relationship with my daughter. The way in which she was given time to settle, transition, build confidence and grow has been exceptional and a lovely thing to see. Every day is a joy to come and she heads straight in and knows her key worker and those who are there to support her. Communication is great from the beginning to the end of each day.
