Outdoor space

Children thoroughly enjoy their time outdoors, where they develop their physical skills as they whizz around on tricycles and climb apparatus. Children count the steps they take as they play 'What's the time, Mr Wolf?' and squeal with delight as the 'wolf' chases them. Children jump in and out of hoopla-hoops and swing them around their bodies. Children dig in the garden and talk about the 'big, long worms' they find.

Greet nursery Thanks for the support care and understanding with the transition to the nursery. All the staff in Little learners one are fantastic with my daughters miles better then her previous nursery and settled in alot faster. Always get a hand over and lots of detail about how she has been and what she's been learning. Lovely rooms and nice garden for the children to play outside in.

My daughter has been at this nursery for just over a year and I am really happy with the quality of service and care. The staff are all genuine, friendly and professional and take the time to get to know the children individually and can talk confidently about their development. The activities are excellent and so is the food and menu. The feedback provided on the app is detailed and reassuring and gives you peace of mind. My daughter is very very happy and makes noticeable progress in the time that she spends there. I have already recommended the nursery to others and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again, it is great value and a positive and nurturing environment for a child to experience.

My son started at Little pioneers (Finchfield) in 2021, we have been very happy with his development considering he was a lock down baby, he has come on leaps and bounds, he is super confident, kind and his learning development has improved significantly over the last 12months. The staff have been wonderful have made my son feel so welcome and very secure within the classroom that friendships with staff and other children have been made and is so lovely too see and be apart of, fully recommend this nursery too anyone that is looking.

Do not send your child to this nursery! Their communication and lack of transparency is shocking. They are great when they want your money to join but do not care for your child. They leave your baby to cry do not comfort your child when they are in distress at all. The manager lacks any sympathy to the neglect my baby received in her nursery. There is no follow up or care.

Having visited a number of local nurseries we fell in love with the Finchfield Nursery at one of their open days. The fact that our son whos 1 warmed to the staff straight away was a good sign... he hadnt done that anywhere else. The nursery layout itself is open, spacious and well maintained. The staff are warm and welcoming and nothing is ever too much trouble. The Parent Zone app is fantastic in enabling us to keep in touch with how our son is getting on and this is updated at every session with pictures and notes. The team have done a fantastic job in helping our son to settle in and he absolutely loves it. Would definitely recommend.
