Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

Outdoor space

Outdoors, children learn to manage their own risks when using some apparatus, such as when they test their physical abilities and 'climb the mountain'. Children regularly learn in the fresh air.

EAL / language support

However, children who speak English as an additional language do not regularly hear or use their home language in their play and learning, to help them build on their communication skills even further.

This is a wonderful nursery that has provided a nurturing, supportive, and fun environment for both of our sons (an infant and a pre-schooler). The staff really know and understand the children and are able to provide personalised care. We were always kept informed of their activities, food, and sleep, and were able to see daily pictures of nursery life to understand how they spent their time. Highly recommend to anyone in the area!

Little Learners Northwood is a wonderful nursery with a team of caring and nurturing staff who really do go above and beyond for the children. My son has been attending for a year and is thriving thanks to the wonderful team. They take great care of all the children and are so friendly and welcoming. It's wonderful to recieve pictures during the day to see what our son has been up to. Every day the teachers set up different activities based on themes throughout the year such as mothers day, diwali, Halloween, Christmas etc. We are so pleased we chose Little Learners for our son.

If you want your child to thrive and develop in a nurturing and loving environment, then this is the Montessori nursery to choose! Each day the staff set up different sensory and imaginative activities for the children to play with. The management team are very helpful and keep us updated throughout. As first time parents, this really reassures us that our son is in a safe and happy environment. Our son's social skills have immensely developed within 1 year and he is developing lots of self-care skills. We thank the nursery staff so much for all their hard work and looking after our son so well - they are excellent! We look forward to his developments in the children house next term!!!
