Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Arrangements to identify and support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities help them to reach their potential. The manager has improved relationships with other settings and professionals, which has improved children's access to extra help when needed.

Outdoor space

Overall, the nursery environment supports children's learning. However, plans to improve the outdoor learning space, so that children have the same high-quality learning experiences as indoors, especially in the winter months, have yet to take effect.

Outstanding Nursery - Truly Little Treasures! (A 5 STAR PLUS NURSERY ) I cant recommend Little Treasures enough! From day one, the staff have been incredibly supportive, welcoming, and genuinely caring. They've created such a warm and nurturing environment for my daughter, and it's been amazing to see how much she's grown in confidence and happiness since starting there. The team is not only kind and attentive but also very professional. They communicate regularly and clearly, always keeping me informed about my daughter's progress and any updates. It's clear they're deeply passionate about what they do, and they go above and beyond to make sure each child feels safe, valued, and included. My daughter looks forward to going every day, which says it all! My daughter was soo fussy ,now she’s happy to try lots of food . The food this nursery cooks for our jewels are made with love just like home . Because of how much my daughter has progressed when it comes to eating i did made her stay a year more in little Treasures instead of her starting proper school last year September, but yeah sadly we graduated happily this July from Little Treasures Nursery and Pre school for reception coming September. I'm so grateful to have found such a wonderful nursery. Thank you, Little Treasures, for being such a positive part of her early years! THANK YOU SOO MUCH TO ALL THE STAFF. AND YES THE AMAZING MANAGER ( MICHELLE). BLESS YOU ALL . We will be visiting as proud happy student ❤️❤️ . From :Florencia.

My son attended Little Treasures Nursery and Pre-school for the last 2 years, and I can honestly say it was the best decision sending him there. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed, supported, and confident that our child was in the best possible hands. The staff are incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly passionate about early childhood development. They take the time to understand each child's personality and needs, creating a nurturing and engaging environment. I highly recommend Little Treasures for any parent looking to place their child at a Nursery/Pre-school.

Sending my son to this nursery was one of the best decisions I made. My son looked forward to going to school always, he loved his teachers and made friends there. I want to thank Mrs Treasure and her entire staff for the good work the did while my son was there. Please keep up the good work. Emeka U.

Sad that my little one is leaving to go to big school, my daughter loved coming here, they taught her so much and is definitely ready for school and have done so well getting her ready for school. Some of the things my daughter has learnt is amazing! The staff work hard, all the staff are so lovely and the manager is so passionate about every child being her little treasure. The difference between other nurseries and this nursery is that Michelle (manager) does not see the nursery as a ‘business’ but a home where she treats all the families and children like her own and is very supportive. Thank you little treasures and to all you special staff who looked after my daughter… we will be back and pop by for visits ❤️

Michelle and her team at Little Treasures have helped massively in getting my daughter ready for school and would not hesitate in recommending to others. The hard work they all put in is evident to see in how my child has developed.
