May 16, 2022 at 12:00 amEveryone has been amazing from the introductory sessions to helping my big boy settle in and feel a part of the Little Wellies family.
We still have wobbles some mornings but the staff know the kids so well that they know how to calm them, so they have a great day.
One of the best things about the nursery is the way it is child-led and if a child has a particular interest in something they explore this further.
There are so many opportunities for growth and development and these are documented beautifully in their record books.

May 30, 2022 at 12:00 amWe elated at the changes we have seen in our daughter since starting at Little Wellies in February 2022. She attended another nursery previously and after a series of incidents we decided to change nurseries as it was impacting her wellbeing and happiness.
Our daughter settled in straight away, is super happy to attend Little Wellies and tells us all the amazing things she has been doing. The staff make it feel like you are part of the family. They are warm, chatty and welcoming. They take time to get to know each of the children and spend quality time developing skills all whilst having lots of fun. The activities are fun, enabling and engaging. We would recommend Little Wellies to everyone.

November 28, 2022 at 12:00 amAmazing nursery – caring happy friendly staff. My child loves being at a nursery here, he’s come on in leaps and bounds since he started in July 2022. He doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day because he’s having so much fun. I genuinely feel so confident that he is so well cared for and looked after. The nursery setting is great and they spend lots of time outside too in the outdoor play space but also on trips to the park and the local community which is great!

November 28, 2022 at 12:00 amI can’t recommend Little Wellies enough! My daughter had a hard time separating, to begin with, and all of the staff were amazing welcoming her in each morning and settling her. She has learnt and developed so much since joining Little wellies. She has built friendships and so much confidence both socially and physically. Each member of staff has taken the time to get to know her and they are great at letting you know what she has done at the end of each day! She absolutely loves the outdoor space in which they spend a lot of time. Oh and the food is a hit too, she loves mushrooms and veg sticks now! From a parent’s perspective, I have been really impressed with the communication and with how prompt they are with responding to emails etc too!

December 5, 2022 at 12:00 amAn absolutely delightful nursery. After relocating my 2-year-old daughter (to a nursery closer to home), it was an easy pick. From the first look around, Little Wellies was warm and welcoming. The manager is knowledgeable and it is clear he has a passion and a real interest in the education of the children at Little Wellies. The care and attention to ensuring my daughter felt comfortable and settled, allowed for a smooth transition. Little Wellies has a great outdoor space, which was a real positive for me and my family. Activities and provisions are varied, child-centred and age-appropriate. Key workers are friendly, caring and enthusiastic. They show a genuine interest in your child and their progression.

December 5, 2022 at 12:00 amI could not fault Little Wellies, I won’t leave my daughter with many people but I wholeheartedly trust everyone at Little Wellies. You can genuinely see how much they love, respect and care for every child. The enthusiasm at the end of the day when they give you an update as to what they’ve been up to, what they’ve done new/accomplished is so lovely to see. I would always recommend Little Wellies to anyone who wants a loving space for their child.

December 20, 2022 at 12:00 amWhat an absolutely amazing group of people who welcomed my little girl for just one term when her first nursery closed after summer. Every member of the team are so friendly and helpful and heartwarming. My little girl was difficult to leave at first but has settled amazing thanks to the support and overwhelming support from everyone at Little Wellies. They communicate with excellence and I’m proud my little girl has been a part of this wonderful nursery even if she’s leaving soon.

December 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur Children have been attending this nursery for almost 18 months now. We are really impressed with the nursery, the girls absolutely love their time there and this shows when they come home and talk to us about their day. The staff are excellent, they really get to know the children and are enthusiastic about their learning. They will support you with anything you want your children to learn or become more confident with. The management are very knowledgeable, their skills and experience bring a real positive learning atmosphere and the nursery is well run throughout, from daily activities to the admin side of things. They have a large outside area where children spend lots of time, and also take the children outside of the nursery to the park, canal, forest etc. for visits. My children have always struggled with new people and separation from us, but the staff are able to quickly settle them if they are upset and I feel they are in very safe hands here. Little Wellies is excellent!

December 20, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Little Wellies for almost a year now. There are days when she’s so excited to go, and days when she’s apprehensive. Regardless the staff are always on hand to help settle her or share in her excitement. I love how they encourage independence here, from hanging up their coats etc to serving their own meals and clearing away. The only thing I would like to see would be some kind of app or interactive communication for updates throughout the nursery day.

December 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur daughter has attended Little Wellies for a year now and we couldn’t be happier with it. She comes back every day full of stories about what she has done and all the friends she is making along the way.

December 20, 2022 at 12:00 amOur child is coming to the end of his first full term at Little Wellies and we are so happy with the term he has had. He is looked after by a great team of ladies who always have his best interests at heart and do all they can to help him feel settled and safe. The team are so caring and even though he struggles to say goodbye, we know he will settle quickly enough to enjoy his breakfast and have a great day ahead. We love seeing pictures of our son’s day and hearing about the lovely things he has done at pick-up time. Having tried a different nursery previously, we cannot recommend Little Wellies enough and are so pleased we chose Little Wellies for our child’s nursery education.

December 20, 2022 at 12:00 amThe progress our two-year-old has made since joining Little Wellies in September is amazing. After a few weeks, he had a bit of a ‘wobble’ and became quite anxious about attending. The support that both he and we, as parents, received from the staff at the time was fantastic, and he has now come through it and now he bounds in and out of the door with a huge smile on his face. He lights up when he talks about the staff at home, and I don’t think you can ask for much more than that.

April 18, 2023 at 12:00 amLittle Wellies has been a wonderful learning space for my toddler. He has come on leaps and bounds developmentally, learning to count, sing nursery rhymes by heart and play both independently and wonderfully with children. The nursery always supports his curiosity and have helped successfully potty train him this term. They communicate brilliantly with parents by writing a daily slip of his food, activities and routine which helps to easily understand how to support him at home in the evening and morning so my little boy is as happy as possible.

April 18, 2023 at 12:00 amAll staff are of a high level and provide excellent care to all children. They really helped the transition for my two children. I know when I pick them up that they’ve had a good day and learnt lots of new things.

April 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter started Little Wellies Day Nursery in Idle only a few days ago. I have seen such an amazing transformation in her since she started. Prior to this she had attended another nursery which she loved but found it difficult to interact with other children or play with toys on her own or with others. She also was very unsettled at times and I would have to come and pick her up from nursery. Now she is a lot more confident after only a few days at Little Wellies and all I can say is that it is down to the most amazing staff at the nursery who make you feel very welcome and supported. I am so pleased I chose this nursery for my daughter

April 21, 2023 at 12:00 amI honestly couldn’t have asked for a better nursery for my little boy, he’s come on in leaps and bounds, constantly talks about the staff members when he’s at home and tells me who his friends are. He’s been here nearly 2 years now and he absolutely loves it.

April 21, 2023 at 12:00 amSending my daughter to Little Wellies Day Nursery Idle was hands down one of the best decisions we have ever made! She absolutely loves it there. All the team are friendly, so caring and will do anything and everything in their power to make sure your little one has the best time and learns through play! My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting with the team and loves her days in nursery!
She loves playing outside and is so adventurous and has made such strong bonds with all the team and the other kids there, it’s beautiful to see!
Thank you so much Little Wellies Idle! You guys are amazing!
