September 6, 2022 at 12:00 amLeaving this review to say a huge thank you to all the wonderful staff at Small World. My son left today to start reception, age 4 and has been attending since 11 months old. What a wonderful start he has had attending this nursery. He has loved it so much and received such excellent care. It’s true that leaving your child here feels like dropping them off with family. I have spent this evening reading the most amazing scrapbook of his memories at Small World. I can’t recommend this nursery highly enough!

September 14, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little boy has just left Small World to start reception. He loved his time at Small World and misses it so much. The staff are amazing, so caring and friendly and welcoming. Can’t thank them enough – best nursery. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nursery for their little ones. We both miss Small World so much.

September 15, 2022 at 12:00 amSmall World provides excellent care for your child from the moment they start until they finish. Our second child has just left pre-school; he was more than ready, thanks to the excellent activities that were planned by the staff. He sobbed on the day he left because he had built such strong relations with the lovely, caring staff, along with the other children. We were so upset to see him leave as he was so settled and at home there. The scrapbook of his journey they gave us brought us to tears; so thoughtful and lovely.
Our daughter is in the baby room and is well looked after and cared for. We get regular updates on the app, and the staff are so friendly and approachable that they let you know exactly how they have been all day. Nothing is ever too much for them, and she is so happy there. Thank you to all of the staff at Small World for taking wonderful care of our three children.

September 15, 2022 at 12:00 amMy little girl just left this nursery after attending since she was 7 months old. In that time, they’ve seen us through weaning, lockdown activities, potty training, social development, preparing for school and much more, all with a duty of care and attention that went above and beyond what we ever expected. My son started at 9 months old and has received similarly exemplary care and attention. The staff and management treat your children like their own, and we have always felt very safe in the knowledge that they will alert us to any concerns or changes as well as keeping us informed of progress and celebrate the victories, small and large, alongside us. After seeing how much our 4-year-old thrived under their care, we’re looking forward to seeing our son through, especially with the extra bonus of the beautiful graduation service and mementoes that they provided to mark the end of our daughter’s journey with them.

September 15, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has just started her new adventure in reception after having the best start possible at Small World. The amazing staff had made sure she was school ready with the skills needed to start school, but most importantly, doing so whilst ensuring she felt safe, loved and happy! Both my children have attended here since they were just under 1 year old, and we’ve always been so happy with the care they’ve received! Thanks to all the team who filled us with the confidence to drop off our precious little ones each day, knowing they were in the best hands!

January 15, 2023 at 12:00 amCannot recommend this nursery enough. The staff are incredible, and their genuine interest and care for the kids are evident. I had my older boy in the nursery and preschool, and he has recently started school, well prepared and confident thanks to all the hard work the staff put in. I’ve also started my little girl in the baby room and couldn’t be happier with the standard of care and level of communication between staff and myself. Thank you, Small World!

January 15, 2023 at 12:00 amHands down – the best nursery around! My little boy currently goes here, and he loves it. He’s made some gorgeous friendships with both staff and the other children and has come on so much. He can’t wait to get back in there every week. The staff here are absolute god sends and helped support us more than they’ll ever know when looking after my daughter with needs a few years back. After the support we received back then, I knew I’d never use another nursery again. I couldn’t speak more highly about the nursery and the staff if I tried. They go above and beyond and are always there to accommodate, guide and support when needed. They work so hard all year round to provide a safe and fun environment for all the children in their care. If you’re looking for a nursery for your child, I would 10/10 recommend Small World Day Nursery.

Fantastic communication with all staff and managers.
He loves going to nursery and has a great time. Thank you.

January 16, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son started at Small World soon after he turned two, going into toddlers. He’s now in the preschool room and learning more and more every day. I can’t say enough good things about this nursery; the staff are kind, caring and always upbeat. They keep me up to date with how my son is doing and the progress he’s making, and he always leaves with a smile on his face. He’s made some good friends at Small World, and we’re really going to miss it when he has to go to big school!

January 17, 2023 at 12:00 amSmall World is a stimulating and caring nursery setting. All of the staff are experienced and provide a warm and welcoming environment for the children. It is a very happy nursery, and I would highly recommend it.

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amAmazing team. We have a boy that’s been going since he was one, and as first-time parents, we were very nervous about it. The team were amazing in helping him and us settle in. Can’t thank them enough – truly set our minds to rest, and he’s coming along excellent running in when we drop him off. And love the updates throughout the day.

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amI cannot speak highly enough of Small World. My daughter was struggling with talking in front of adults, and I suspected selective mutism. The depths the SENCO went to in order to support my daughter and implement strategies were above and beyond. Her key worker spoke with me daily, and now my daughter is talking freely and gaining more and more confidence every day. This, I believe, is definitely down to the support received from all at Small World. They are simply wonderful!

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son started in the toddler room just after he turned two. He has autism and is nonverbal. I was particularly worried about him starting nursery as I am a little protective of him. Over a year later, he is now in the preschool room, and I couldn’t have wished for a better nursery and staff! They are all amazing. My little boy has even started to say words! I cannot believe how much he has developed since he started at Small World. I am so proud of him but equally so proud of all the staff who have helped to get him to where he is today.
My little girl has not long started in the toddler room, and she loves it! Her speech is coming along so well, and she cannot wait to get out of the car and into the nursery to see her friends!
I feel so at ease leaving both of my babies here, and the communication between the staff and myself is second to none. They always keep me informed and send pictures through the nursery app, which always makes me smile!
Do not hesitate to send your child here!

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amThis nursery and the staff are all outstanding. I know that’s quite a broad statement, but it is true. Our experience with our child has been excellent. The environment and the staff are very warm and welcoming, and their focus on nurturing and developing each child individually as well as a group is exceptional. They have offered us lots of support, conversations and advice on any questions or worries we have had about our little girl. They always do this with a smile and go the extra mile to make sure as parents, we are heard, and our experience with our child is valued and reflected in how they work with her. They do all they can to reassure and consistently communicate with us about our little one. And the learning and level of care provided are great. I could go on forever, but I won’t! Thank you.

January 18, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been at Small World since he was eight months old. I feel so comfortable with the care he receives from all the staff. He has already learned so much from there and has come on amazingly in a short time. I have already recommended this nursery to family and friends.

January 20, 2023 at 12:00 amMoving my little girl to Small World was by far the best decision I ever made. After having a bad experience at another local nursery, I decided to move my little one to Small World, and the difference in the setting, staff and progress my daughter has been making is astounding.
All staff and managers are genuinely interested in the progress of my daughter; they go above and beyond to encourage her and instantly made her (and me!) feel welcome and part of their family. You can tell this is not just a job for the staff here; they are caring and considerate and overall very experienced at what they do!
I get regular updates from my daughters’ key worker on the steps she is making and how they are tailoring their age-appropriate activities. I trust the staff here entirely, and more importantly, my little girl loves them all! She runs in and sometimes wants to stay longer when I go to pick her up! I will definitely be sending my newborn here and would recommend it to anyone.

January 25, 2023 at 12:00 amMy little girl loves it here. She has so much fun and learns lots of new things.
Always excited to go and comes home talking none stop about her day.
They do so many different things – no week is the same.
Good health meals at lunchtime.
The app is a brilliant way to communicate, and we get many lovely updates.

January 30, 2023 at 12:00 amAs first-time parents, we were very anxious about sending our little boy to nursery full-time, but we honestly couldn’t have chosen a better place for him to be! The staff are always warm and welcoming, and the care that he receives is outstanding. We receive daily updates about his progress (which has been amazing since joining Small World!), and he just adores his time there. We absolutely love that the nursery teaches – alongside language! Our son has picked this up so quickly, and we have been amazed at his communication skills. We are truly grateful to all of the amazing staff for settling our son so well and are looking forward to watching him flourish even further under their care. We have the greatest peace of mind knowing that he is safe and happy, and we really couldn’t wish for anything more!

March 6, 2023 at 12:00 amOur 2-year-old girl has been attending Small World for 2-3 days a week since she was ten months old. Initially, like lots of parents, we were a bit anxious about how she would settle in. From the very beginning, the owners and wider team of staff have been nothing short of amazing, making both her and us feel so welcome and at ease in their lovely little community. My little girl simply loves it. Her key worker has been incredible, and one of the many wonderful things about this nursery is that every other member of staff also knows our daughter so well. Not only do I feel at ease after leaving her there in the morning, I actually feel like I’m doing her a favour! We could not recommend it enough to anyone looking for somewhere safe, caring and fun for their child.
