Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The nursery provides quality support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Staff work collaboratively with parents and other services to ensure that children receive the best possible support at the earliest point. This ensures that, where possible, additional support and guidance are put in place to help children with SEND make the best possible progress.

Outdoor space

During outdoor play, some children create their own games and rules, no longer relying on adults to lead their play. The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact that this was having on children's learning.

Our little boy had a fantastic time at Little Manor. The staff in the baby room were wonderful, and went out of their way to make sure he was happy and felt included. All the staff here are incredibly friendly and would always greet us with a smile when walking in. They sent us regular updates and photos on the app which made us feel reassured, and they used their magic to get our boy to nap which we were very surprised about! We'd recommend this nursery to all our friends. 😊 Thank you everyone at Little Manor for giving our little boy a great start!

Jayne and her wonderful team have made my daughter's experience in the daycare easy and memorable, my little one has been there from 11 months and absolutely loves it, she loves all her carers , Alex was her primary carer the baby room and Hannah now takes care of her in the toddler room, but she knows all the wonderful ladies that have taken care of her. She has learnt so much , has so much of fun with the activities and loves going on the woodland walks. The daycare is her second home and I'm always reassured entrusting this wonderful team with my little one.

My little one absolutely loves his time in nursery. I truly believe the amount he has learnt to say and how to engage with people is down to the girls that work here. Everyday he asks if he’s going to nursery to see Charlie, Hannah and the rest of the girls. He doesn’t want to come home sometimes. They are attentive and very approachable should you have any queries or worries and all of them always welcome you in, in the morning with a big smile and a “morning”!! Lovely little nursery with everything they need, staff are outstanding and we couldn’t be any more pleased we chose for my little one to go here. Can’t thank them enough. Special shoutout to Charlie who loves our little one. They have created such a lovely bond and makes you feel at ease knowing he has someone there he goes too when he’s upset or just needs a cuddle. Thank you to all the girls, we don’t say it enough ☺️🥰

My family have had a fantastic experience with the Little Manor team over the last four years and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. My eldest son has recently left Little Manor for school and my youngest is currently in the baby room. The team have built very close relationships with both our boys and have provided an exceptional start to their early development. It is a very warm, happy and welcoming nursery and the staff go the extra mile to ensure that both the needs and expectations of the children, and us as parents, are being delivered to the highest standard.

Little Manor has been amazing for both of my little boys (4 years and 1 year). My eldest is on the pathway for ADHD and the nursery have been so amazing with him and also supported myself. Jayne and Charlotte in particular have always strived to give my eldest the best support and are always so encouraging with him and have identified approaches to calm him down. I know how much my boys love the nursery and it is such a nice feeling knowing how happy they are and how much they adore the staff. My youngest is in the baby room and Lorraine has been amazing with him - he absolutely adores her and I feel so content leaving him there and have done since day one as Lorraine was incredible with Mason. Overall, the nursery is brilliant, great range of food for the children and so many fun activities. The staff also take a huge interest in what the children are interested in and tailor activities to suit. Thanks so much to everyone at little manor xx
