Southwater Day Nursery and Pre-school

Especially when they go out, such as to the library or to the woods! Her favourite thing they have done was the nativity show, and what a lovely show that was! Our daughter enjoys the activities this preschool has to offer.

She comes home highly cheerful and tired. They do lots with them, and it’s a truly lovely setting. She is developing as she should be, and that is thanks to the team. I adore my daughter’s childcare centre, it’s spotless and secure.

Our son started in September, but he was highly unsettled and would get highly upset at drop off. He’d spent so long with just family that this was all highly new to him. The team couldn’t be more supportive, they let us reduce his hour and increase them gradually, which truly helped. They also supported him but displaying a timeline for the morning so he knew what he would be doing and when he would be coming home. He is now completely settled; he gets so excited telling us what he’s done and has a truly lovely relationship with all the team. Cheerful son and cheerful Mummy and Daddy. We have been so impressed with Southwater Pre-school; I have recommended them to my friends too.

They are well looked after and consistently leave wanting to go back on there next session. Highly recommended What a exceptional preschool, both my daughters have attended Little Acorns and have thrived there, the team are all incredible and my girls adore it there.

My youngest son was delayed in speaking and with the assistance of the team at Little Acorns, he has improved dramatically and I am confident that in September he will be ready for big school. The team are excellent and consistently cheerful to help. I sense highly fortunate that one of the team is male, as he is a excellent role model and a rarity in nurseries. After spending nearly 4 years with my kids at this childcare centre, I honestly can’t suggest them enough. I have already had my eldest son attend Little Acorns, so for me, there was no doubt my youngest would also attend.

He is becoming more independent and discovering new skills such as sharing and tidying up after himself. It’s excellent they are flexible with drop off and pick up to fit in with our lifestyle. Team are highly welcoming, and our son has settled in so well.

My daughter loves it here, from the enjoyable resources and activities to the exceptional attentive team. She loves her time there with all her friends and has grown so much in self‑assurance. This is such a lovely pre-school.

The team are incredibly understanding on so many issues. They also helped one of my kids with a speech issue and spent time with her individually and it truly showed in her development week on week. The range of activities was vast and well thought out. My two kids both attended Little Acorns and have positively thrived in the setting.

My little girl absolutely loves going and asks every morning whether it’s a preschool day. She’s an August baby and so one of the younger ones, and had a hard time settling in within the first week or so, but the team have been so attentive, patient and flexible. I would have no hesitation recommending Little Acorns to others. We have been so impressed by the team at Little Acorns.

“ he absolutely loves it and gets so excited when we say today is a childcare centre day. His self‑assurance has grown so much and he has become more and more curious and asking questions. We’re truly enjoying hearing what he has been doing. He struggled with his colours but with help from the childcare centre and guidance from the team in some home discovering, he now can tell us most of them easily. The childcare centre is inviting, welcoming and all the kids run in to start their day. I couldn’t suggest the team and the setting enough. Our son wakes up every morning and says “am I going to Little Acorns today?
