Inclusion & environment
Support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is excellent. Staff work closely with other agencies involved with the children to implement targeted learning plans. The nursery's special educational needs coordinator supports parents to make referrals to other professionals and to apply for additional funding.
Children develop physical skills through stimulating experiences in the outdoor area, building core strength and agility. They confidently negotiate climbing walls and slides, waiting patiently for their turn.
Both my children have attended Little Feet over the years and I couldn’t be any happier with the care provided. They both flourished with their learning and skills and I have always felt safe and happy leaving my children with the wonderful staff there. Happy children means a happy parent and that’s certainly what I am. I cannot thank everyone at Little Feet enough for being a huge part of of my children’s learning journey ❤️ thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Read on GoogleI cannot recommend Little Feet Nursery highly enough. My son Elwyn attended the nursery from aged 2 and has recently left as he starts school next week. From the very beginning, the staff at Little Feet demonstrated an exceptional understanding of Elwyn's needs as an autistic child. They embraced a genuinely neuroaffirmative approach that celebrated his unique strengths and supported his development with patience, compassion, and love. They truly saw him, understood him, and valued him exactly as he is. The nursery's strong focus on language and communication proved invaluable for Elwyn's development. The staff worked consistently and thoughtfully to support his communication skills in ways that felt natural and encouraging rather than pressured. Their expertise in this area is evident in both their approach and the remarkable progress Elwyn made during his time there. The preparation they provided for Elwyn's transition to school was fantastic. The staff went above and beyond to support us through the Education Health Care plan process ensuring Elwyn receives the individualised support he needs. The handover process was thorough and professional, clearly demonstrating their deep understanding of his needs and how best to support his continued success. Thanks to their careful preparation work, Elwyn is genuinely excited about starting school (something I wouldn't have believed was possible 6 months ago!). The staff's commitment to understanding each child as an individual shines through in everything they do. Their patience, warmth, and professional dedication created an environment where Elwyn could thrive and grow in confidence. They built a foundation of trust and security that has given him the tools he needs for his next adventure. Little Feet Nursery provides exceptional care where children are genuinely valued, understood, and nurtured. Vicky, Sophie, Sharna, Sharon, and all the other incredible staff that - thank you so much for everything you have done for Elwyn!
Read on GoogleLittle Feet have provided care for 2 of my daughters from age 1 to school years. The team ensures support & care is tailored to the individual, including speech & language therapy, with the aim of ensuring the children are ready for school which both of mine have been. The staff truly care & in a time of need the team went above & beyond to support our family to which we will be forever grateful. I wouldn’t choose anywhere else for my children & I look forward to my 3rd daughter starting next year.
Read on Google⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Probably the best nursery in the area! Our little boy Bear absolutely LOVES it here. The staff are fantastic, and we really appreciate the little updates and photos shared on the app throughout the day – such a thoughtful touch that many nurseries don’t offer. It gives us peace of mind and always puts a smile on our faces.
Read on GoogleWhere do I begin! Our girls have been going for the past 8 years! We have loved how they have encouraged them, inspired them to be their own little person, grown in confidence, learnt to recognise letters, numbers, write their names before starting school! The list is endless. There is so many special teachers in each room, the girls will miss them without a doubt, it’s not sunk in they won’t be returning. The owners have done a fantastic job of investing in the staff and nursery, it’s the perfect foundation for your babies.
