About this day nursery

Little Angels Nurseries, established in 2003 by Debbie Thelwell as a childminding service, has grown into a well-regarded childcare provider in Nantwich, Cheshire. The nursery is dedicated to offering high-quality childcare with a strong emphasis on outdoor learning, encouraging children's natural curiosity through play and exploration.

They prioritise developing strong, resilient, and confident learners by responding to each child's individual interests and integrating these into their learning through group activities and free play. Little Angels holds a strong belief in fostering close partnerships with parents, viewing them as essential collaborators in each child's educational journey and treating every child as a unique individual.

The nursery expanded its offerings in 2004 to include a preschool, breakfast club, afterschool club, and holiday club at Weaver Primary School. In September 2012, they further expanded by opening the Regents Park full-day nursery, which has earned a positive reputation within the community for its comprehensive day care facilities.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and children in receipt of additional funding, are very well supported. The effective key-person system and accurate use of assessment mean that gaps in children's learning and any specific needs are identified early and acted on quickly. Learning goals in children's education, health and care plans are seamlessly interwoven into all aspects of the curriculum. Furthermore, staff make excellent use of additional strategies to support children with SEND when they identify gaps in their speech, language and communication.

Outdoor space

When outside, children observe the aeroplanes and trains. They chat with staff about where the vehicles might be going on their journey.

Both of my children attended Little Angels (Regents setting) from around age one through to starting school, so we’ve been with the nursery for roughly seven consecutive years. I only have positive things to say, and I’m genuinely grateful that we never experienced any issues with either child during that time. The standout feature of Little Angels is, without question, the staff. Many have been there for years and have cared for both of my children in turn. My daughter started when she was very young, and the care she received as a baby was exceptional. She’s four now and still has a lovely bond with her key person from the baby room, who has been particularly wonderful. The staff truly care about the children and take the time to get to know each one, supporting their individual interests. There are plenty of thoughtful, engaging, and practical activities—especially in pre-school. Recently, the children enjoyed visits from the police and the army, and they’re already excited for Santa’s upcoming visit! Debbie, the manager, is very hands-on and present day to day. All the children know her, and she’s always available for a chat at pick-up if needed. I’d also like to mention that the revised pricing structure offers better value for us than before, which is a great bonus. Overall, we’ve had a wonderful experience and highly recommend Little Angels.

We have used little angels nursery for both our boys and it has been a fantastic experience for both. Our children were both very anxious to start with at the setting and the staff worked with us over this settling in period which made an amazing difference. Nothing has ever been too much trouble and they have gone above and beyond. Our 4yo loves the pre school and all of the staff have been brilliant, especially Dawn. We have been impressed with the variety of activities and have enjoyed the regular stay and plays allowing us to spend time in the setting. We are always made to feel welcome on site and kept informed through tapestry and other ways. An excellent place to send your little one.
