Inclusion & environment
Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive excellent support. The manager and SEND coordinator identify learning gaps, implement strategies, and access external services like speech and language support. They also liaise with parents and specialists to support curriculum planning.
Children who speak English as an additional language are well supported. Staff learn about children's home language vocabulary and use visual prompts and dual-language books to aid language development.

Read on GoogleAfter removing my daughter from another nursery back in August I was very anxious and worried about my daughter going into another nursery setting. My daughter instantly loved little rainbows 2. The staff are so friendly and lovely therefore my daughter settled in so quickly . My daughter always seems to be doing a wide range of activities and learning new things which didn’t happen so much in her previous nursery and I’m kept up to date and sent photos of what she has been up to though the EYLog app. I found everyone there very welcoming and helpful and I know she’s in good hands there. I would highly recommend this nursery.
Read on GoogleAll 3 of my children have been or go to, little rainbows 2 and we plan to start another there after Christmas. Such a warm friendly atmosphere and very helpful, caring and informative staff. This isn’t our closest nursery but we find this is the best one. We also love how it’s Always the same people who work there, so they really do grow a bond with your child and build special relationships. It’s amazing how much my children have come on since starting nursery :)
Read on GoogleMy 2 year old has attended Little Rainbows for over a year now. I chose this nursery as it was local to us and also has a before and after school club for my older child in the same building. Having used a smaller setting previously for my older daughter I was a little apprehensive but I had no need to be. The care they provide for my child is second to none. Every single staff member is brilliant with her and she truly loves going. She has come on leaps and bounds while attending this nursery and I wouldn't use anywhere else.
Read on GoogleMy daughter started at Little Rainbows 2 in August 2017 at 8 months old. My daughter was born with a cleft palate and staff had to learn how to feed her with specialised bottles. Since then she has needed extra help with speech therapy but this has never been an issue. They have always been happy to support her in every way they can. Over the last 3 years my daughter has absolutely loved every moment at nursery - she is excited every single day to go to nursery. That to me is the biggest factor when you hand your child over to someone else, are they happy? And yes she is. The staff are brill, in every room we have been in. The manager Gemma is fantastic and no question is ever too big or small. The new EYLog is fab and you can see pictures of how your child is getting on. We love Little Rainbows 2 and will be sending our baby next year. I cannot fault the nursery and I recommend it to every parent I know.
