Most importantly, all the staff are fantastic - they obviously have a passion for what they do and have genuine affection for the children. Our daughter settled in extremely quickly and always has a smile on her face. The nursery itself has a warm and stimulating environment, and a lovely garden with lots of outdoor time encouraged. They also go on lots of little local trips to the woods/parks etc to mix things up! We couldn’t be happier with our decision to send our daughter there!

My daughter, who is 15 Months old, started in September and she absolutely loves it there. The nursery is clean and cosy, with a variety of things for the children to do, accompanied by a lovely garden. The staff are professional and friendly with a genuine affection for the children. I receive regular updates on my daughters day to day activities, with diary updates on what she's been doing, what meals she's had and photos of her golden moments. I couldnt be happier with sending my daughter to Little Crocs and I would highly recommend them.

Jodean, Philippa and Rebecca are wonderful and passionate about what they do and the care they provide. Our daughter talks about Little Crocs all week, and absolutely loves her days there. The investment in her development is really impressive, and we have seen her blossom so quickly in their care. Not only are they doing a lot at nursery inside and outdoors in the garden, but taking part in lots of trips to great places like Biggin Hill Airport; Natural History Museum, Science Museum, Mudchute Farm, Greenwich - to name a few, as well as making use of the local area such as the woods. Little Crocs is a well needed addition to the Petts Wood community, and we are looking forward to sending baby #2 there next year!
