We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Love 2 Learn Nursery. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome, supported, and completely at ease. They truly care about each child, and it shows in everything they do. The environment is safe, nurturing, and full of engaging activities that help the children learn and grow. Our child has blossomed in confidence, language, and independence since joining and come's home every day excited to share what they’ve done. Communication is excellent – we’re kept informed about our child’s progress and day-to-day activities through regular updates, photos, and friendly conversations at pick-up. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our child is in such good hands. We’re incredibly grateful to the whole team at Love 2 Learn Nursery for creating such a warm, inclusive, and stimulating place for children to thrive. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a truly special nursery! I shall be sending our second child there to! Love Anita & Aaron Hutchinson

My boy has been going to Love2Learn for 3 years, he will be going off to school in a few weeks. It was the most difficult thing to leave my baby, I viewed a few nurseries and Love2Learn was the only one I felt comfortable with. All the staff are committed and enjoy the individual child. They use the curiosity approach and it is child led. My boy always talks positively about the nursery, it is a happy, calm environment. Will be sad to say goodbye

My little girl has been attending since September 2024 and she loves it! She comes home telling me she wants to play with nursery toys! I love that we get updates and pictures about how she is getting on and what she is getting up to. I also love the curiosity approach which this nursery adopts. Staff have always been very kind and helpful and I always feel safe and secure leaving my daughter.

My son has been attending Love 2 Learn nursery, two days a week for over two years now. The setting is incredible with new activities popping up around the place daily to keep his interest. I love that the rooms are above all, homely, cosy and inviting with separate areas that the toddlers can explore depending on their interests. Trips out are planned to local libraries and the park which only enhance his time there. The staff at the setting know the children so well which is incredibly reassuring when dropping off a stroppy toddler. He is always greeted with smiles and cuddles which is exactly what we both need. The staff have also been knowledgeable, helpful and patient in tackling some behavioural issues he has had, I couldn’t ask for more, I love it!

My daughter went to L2L from 8 months old and my son from 6 months old (he’s still there) The nursery is absolutely fantastic. The opportunities that are provided for the children’s learning and progression are outstanding. Their curiosity approach has enabled my children to thrive. Their outdoor space has been designed so that children at each stage of the nursery can have their own areas to explore and they have filled the areas with so much interest! I was so impressed with their care that I signed my son up before he was even born! I’m not sure what I would have done without it. As a teacher, I had high expectations for the nursery my children went to and L2L did not disappoint. They go above and beyond to ensure the best opportunities are provided for all the children and do it in a safe and creative environment. High recommend! 😊
