    We still have wobbles some mornings but the team know the kids so well that they know how to calm them, so they have a excellent day.
    One of the best things about the childcare centre is the way it is kid-led and if a kid 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. Everyone has been incredible from the introductory sessions to helping my big boy settle in and sense a part of the Little Wellies family.

    We are truly impressed with the childcare centre, the girls absolutely adore their time there and this shows when they come home and talk to us about their day. The team are outstanding, they truly get to know the kids and are enthusiastic about their discovering. They will assistance you with anything you want your kids to learn or become more confident with. The management are highly well‑informed, their skills and journey bring a real positive discovering atmosphere and the childcare centre is well run throughout, from daily activities to the admin side of things. They have a large outside area where kids spend lots of time, and also take the kids outside of the childcare centre to the park, canal, forest etc. for visits. My kids have consistently struggled with new people and separation from us, but the team are able to quickly settle them if they are upset and I sense they are in highly secure hands here. Little Wellies is outstanding! Our Kids have been attending this childcare centre for almost 18 months now.

    Gives me peace of mind knowing how much he loves childcare centre and how much enjoyable he’s having while I’m at work. My little boy loves going to childcare centre, he settled in so well, the team are incredible and they do so many different activities with him!

    My kid loves being at a childcare centre 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 enjoyable. I genuinely sense so confident that he is so well cared for and looked after. The childcare centre setting is excellent and they spend lots of time outside too in the outdoor playtime space but also on trips to the park and the local community which is excellent! Incredible childcare centre – attentive cheerful welcoming team.

    She comes back every day full of stories about what she has done and all the friends she is making along the way. Our daughter has attended Little Wellies for a year now and we couldn’t be happier with it.

    He’s been here nearly 2 years now and he absolutely loves it. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better childcare centre for my little boy, he’s come on in leaps and bounds, constantly talks about the team members when he’s at home and tells me who his friends are.

    Every member of the team are so welcoming and supportive and heartwarming. My little girl was difficult to leave at first but has settled incredible thanks to the assistance and overwhelming assistance from everyone at Little Wellies. They communicate with excellence and I’m proud my little girl has been a part of this fantastic childcare centre even if she’s leaving soon. What an absolutely incredible group of people who welcomed my little girl for just one term when her first childcare centre closed after summer.

    She absolutely loves it there. All the team are welcoming, so attentive and will do anything and everything in their power to make sure your little one has the best time and learns through playtime! My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting with the team and loves her days in childcare centre!
    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 lovely to see!
    Thank you so much Little Wellies Idle! You guys are incredible! Sending my daughter to Little Wellies Day Childcare centre Idle was hands down one of the best decisions we have ever made!

    My little boy has thrived and is continuing to do so. The team are lovely and approachable. Management are excellent. Cannot fault it. My son loves going and has done from day dot! Can’t wait for him to continue going over the years and see how much he comes on. Cannot be happier with Little Wellies Day Childcare centre and all they have done.

    He is looked after by a excellent team of ladies who consistently have his best interests at heart and do all they can to help him sense settled and secure. The team are so attentive and even though he struggles to say goodbye, we know he will settle quickly enough to delight in his breakfast and have a excellent day ahead. We adore seeing pictures of our son’s day and hearing about the lovely things he has done at pick-up time. Having tried a different childcare centre previously, we cannot suggest Little Wellies enough and are so pleased we chose Little Wellies for our kid’s childcare centre education. Our kid is coming to the end of his first full term at Little Wellies and we are so cheerful with the term he has had.

    My daughter had a hard time separating, to begin with, and all of the team were incredible 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 self‑assurance both socially and physically. Each member of team has taken the time to get to know her and they are excellent 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 truly impressed with the updates and with how prompt they are with responding to emails etc too! I can’t suggest Little Wellies enough!

    There are days when she’s so excited to go, and days when she’s apprehensive. Regardless the team are consistently on hand to help settle her or share in her excitement. I adore 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 compassionate of app or interactive updates for updates throughout the childcare centre day. My daughter has been attending Little Wellies for almost a year now.

    They truly helped the transition for my two kids. I know when I pick them up that they’ve had a great day and learnt lots of new things. All team are of a high level and provide outstanding care to all kids.

    He has come on leaps and bounds developmentally, discovering to count, sing childcare centre rhymes by heart and playtime both independently and wonderfully with kids. The childcare centre consistently 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 assistance him at home in the evening and morning so my little boy is as cheerful as possible. Little Wellies has been a fantastic discovering space for my toddler.

    After relocating my 2-year-old daughter (to a childcare centre closer to home), it was an easy pick. From the first look around, Little Wellies was inviting and welcoming. The manager is well‑informed and it is clear he has a passion and a real interest in the education of the kids at Little Wellies. The care and attention to ensuring my daughter felt comfortable and settled, allowed for a smooth transition. Little Wellies has a excellent outdoor space, which was a real positive for me and my family. Activities and provisions are varied, kid-centred and age-appropriate. Key workers are welcoming, attentive and enthusiastic. They show a genuine interest in your kid and their progression. An absolutely delightful childcare centre.

    I have seen such an incredible transformation in her since she started. Prior to this she had attended another childcare centre which she loved but found it difficult to interact with other kids or playtime with toys on her own or with others. She also was highly unsettled at times and I would have to come and pick her up from childcare centre. 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 incredible team at the childcare centre who make you sense highly welcome and supported. I am so pleased I chose this childcare centre for my daughter My daughter started Little Wellies Day Childcare centre in Idle only a few days ago.

    She attended another childcare centre 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 cheerful to attend Little Wellies and tells us all the incredible things she has been doing. The team make it sense like you are part of the family. They are inviting, chatty and welcoming. They take time to get to know each of the kids and spend quality time developing skills all whilst having lots of enjoyable. The activities are enjoyable, enabling and engaging. We would suggest Little Wellies to everyone. We elated at the changes we have seen in our daughter since starting at Little Wellies in February 2022.

    After a few weeks, he had a bit of a ‘wobble’ and became quite anxious about attending. The assistance that both he and we, as parents, received from the team at the time was remarkable, 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 team at home, and I don’t think you can ask for much more than that. The development our two-year-old has made since joining Little Wellies in September is incredible.

    You can genuinely see how much they adore, respect and care for every kid. 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 consistently suggest Little Wellies to anyone who wants a loving space for their kid. I could not fault Little Wellies, I won’t leave my daughter with many people but I wholeheartedly trust everyone at Little Wellies.
