December 17, 2018 at 12:00 amMy little boy loves his nursery. They are so caring and treat him like their own. The place has transformed since new management and the staff will help in any way for you. They keep you updated with all learning and skills and even have a parent’s evening which I loved.

December 19, 2018 at 12:00 amWe couldn’t be happier with Little Smarties. All of the staff are incredibly friendly and everyone is always smiling. You get the impression that every staff member, from room staff to management, genuinely care about the individual children and their well-being and development.
Communication is fantastic and staff are very approachable. They value your opinions and suggestions as a parent.
The nursery itself is well equipped and improvements are being made all the time. There is always a wide range of toys on offer and lots of exciting activities planned. I feel that my child is always being stimulated and learning new things while having fun.
The food is also excellent – varied and balanced.
We are extremely happy with our choice of nursery and highly recommend it.

January 2, 2019 at 12:00 amGreat nursery, my daughters have both attended for the last year. The improved facilities and activities are fabulous and they both love the staff and their time there. The food is better than they get anywhere else even at home.

January 4, 2019 at 12:00 amI am very pleased with how my little girl has progressed. She surprises me all the time with the stuff she is learning and even counted in Spanish to 5 which I didn’t know she could do. The nursery is always introducing new activities to help the children learn more but in a fun environment and she loves coming home telling me what she has learnt. I feel completely at ease when she is there and know I can always pick up the phone, to see how she is getting on if I want to.
My little girl talks fondly of the staff there and has built some good friendships too. I also cannot fault the food/nutrition. She gets plenty of fruit and vegetables and always eats really well. I will be sad to move her on when she has to go to big school. She has become so confident and I have the nursery to thank for that.

January 18, 2019 at 12:00 amI came across Little Smarties Nursery by chance after seeing a review of them on a local social media page. My then 15-month-old son was not getting on well at another nursery and so I arranged a visit to Little Smarties. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived for the initial look around, to the day we popped in just to drop off our application form and ended up staying over an hour while my son joined in snack time and then the time the manager and my sons room leader came to visit us in our home to make my sons transition as smooth as possible.
I was amazed at how quickly all the staff knew my son by name and would comment on something funny he had done that day or mention a milestone he had reached. They all seemed genuinely interested and engaged in his progress because they genuinely are.
The meals are fabulous. My son eats much better than I do. I need to get some of their recipes.
Four months on and my son is thriving at Little Smarties and this is all down to the staff here.

He has so much fun and the trips out are fantastic.
The meals are nutritious and delicious.
All the staff are great and caring and have fun with the kids.
I thoroughly recommend Little Smarties.

May 7, 2019 at 12:00 amMy Son has been attending Little Smarties Nursery since September 2018, he absolutely loves his time here and adores the staff. We as his parents are so pleased to have chosen Little Smarties as we couldn’t ask for better care for our child. The Staff are amazing with both the children and the parents, nothing is ever too much trouble and the care they provide is outstanding. Little Smarties was everything we wanted from a nursery and more.

June 26, 2019 at 12:00 amMy 1-year-old son attends Little Smarties and we are all very happy with the care he receives, quality of food and snacks and the activities they do with them. My 5-year-old daughter also attends breakfast and after-school clubs and she loves her time there the staff are very welcoming and supportive always putting the children’s needs 1st.

June 26, 2019 at 12:00 amA rare and brilliant find. The staff are friendly, well trained, have a genuine, tailored interest in your child and always seem happy just to be there. Both my son and daughter have thrived whilst attending Little Smarties. Occasions are brilliantly celebrated (sometimes even little gifts or pack lunch for a busy mum on drop off). A major plus for me is that they are really flexible with having the children for any extra days outside of the usual. As a freelancer, I wouldn’t be able to have a career without the support they have offered me. In summary, Fun. Friendly. Fabulous.

June 26, 2019 at 12:00 amWe moved to the area in April and after looking at so many nurseries to place my little girl who is 3 and a half years old now in, the moment we walked in we felt welcomed. My little girl has settled in so nicely, especially going from a really big nursery with like 30 kids in the class to a max of 12.
I think all of the teachers are really good, constructive, always give feedback, listen to what the parent has to say and work with you on behaviour and carry that through so home and nursery are the same etc. My daughter has developed and learnt so much in such a short space of time, especially the Spanish and loves the yoga. The tapestry app is brilliant and great to know how your child is doing and what they get up to etc. My daughter has made lots of friends very easily and loves all the role plays they do. Keep up the brilliant work ladies.
