A Year of Growth and Support at Little Tiggers Nursery My son, who has special needs, has been attending Little Tiggers Nursery for over a year now, and the progress he has made is nothing short of remarkable. From the very beginning, the staff and management have shown unwavering dedication, compassion, and professionalism. Sandra, the manager, has been incredibly supportive throughout our journey. Her understanding, responsiveness, and genuine care have made a world of difference—not just for my son, but for our entire family. She leads with empathy and ensures that every child is treated with respect and given the tools they need to thrive. The team at Little Tiggers is truly exceptional. Their patience, creativity, and commitment have helped my son grow in ways I never imagined possible. Whether it’s through tailored activities, consistent communication, or simply the warmth they bring to each day, they’ve created an environment where children feel safe, valued, and empowered. I wholeheartedly recommend Little Tiggers Nursery to any parent. The transformation we’ve witnessed is a testament to the incredible work of Sandra and her team. We’re deeply grateful.

My daughter has been with Little Tigers Nursery for two years, and now she is about to graduate from this nursery that has played a crucial role in every positive aspect of her life. The nursery has been her primary support at every step, especially with the communication difficulties she faced. The team took my daughter by the hand and guided her on the right path with great care and professionalism. I cannot express my deep gratitude enough to the manager, Sandra, who is truly a dedicated, passionate, and highly skilled professional. I have never met someone as wise, understanding, and committed as she is. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone at the nursery for standing by my daughter throughout her journey. I wish you all the best and continued success.

Be warned!!! Stay clear from this nursery. Your children will be mistreated, ignored and be sure to get reported to social services for absolutely no reason and be greeted with a fake smile by the same individual. No medical or behavioural incidents of your children will be documented. I recently requested for an important information of incidents that occurred that should have been documented to help with a medical intervention and till date, my emails have been ignored despite the urgency. All they care about is money and not your child. I've now learnt from 2 other parents who attend my kids school that this nursery phoned social services for absolutely no reason. A report has been made to the relevant authority It's become clear why my children hated going to nursery and would cry nearly everytime I dropped them off. Awful experience!

Our son started going to this nursery since he was 9 months old and we can see so much progress in his development. He learns different things through many activities and spending time with the team and other babies. The nursery is clean and new, the teachers are very dedicated and our son loves them, the kids are fed a balance diet. We couldn’t be happier with them!

This nursery is literally home away from home. I’ve tried 2 other nurseries before and this one is by far the best one and my 4 year old settled in nicely. The staff are all so friendly and accommodating, the nursery is spacious both indoors and outdoors and most importantly its super clean. I am gutted that we have to say goodbye to it as my son is going to reception, thank you Little Tigers for giving my son a wonderful preschool experience.
