   Don’t think twice before choosing Little Academy for your child, it truly is one of the best decisions you can make. We first enrolled our daughter here when she was 1.5 years old, after her previous nursery made scheduling changes that no longer worked for us. From day one, she absolutely loved Little Academy. The staff are warm, engaged, and genuinely invested in the children. The activities are incredible; chicken hatching during Easter, farm animal visits, and police/fire engine visits right on the premises. It’s learning through real experiences, and we saw the impact immediately: she began recognising police officers, fire engines and firemen from her own hands-on encounters. Unfortunately, due to medical reasons, we had to withdraw her for a period of time. When we were ready to return, there was a year-long waiting list, so we enrolled her in another nursery in the meantime; one that was rated “Outstanding.” Despite the rating, it didn’t even come close to Little Academy. She wasn’t as happy, wasn’t learning as much, and was far less involved in meaningful activities. So the moment a space opened up at Little Academy, we took it ,5 full days and the difference has been unbelievable. Within just a month and a half, she has blossomed again into a confident, active pre-schooler who is excited to participate in everything. Leanne and Anita run the nursery with incredible dedication, and we couldn’t be more grateful. With our second child on the way, we’re already planning to secure a place early, we don’t want to miss out again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Sia. She truly loves her nursery.

   My daughter has been at The Little Academy since she joined the baby room and now in pre-school. She has been a handful with settling in but we are very lucky to have excellent staff that have persevered and helped her through different stages. I have seen her learn and grow. She is eager and excited to start her day at the nursery. Being full-time working parents, we feel lucky to have our daughter being provided love, care and attention. We have witnessed continuous growth and development. There have been some excellent initiatives recently for children (visits from fire department, met police, zoo lab) and parents (preparing for school admission). Thank you to the lovely staff, who have delivered beyond my expectations.

   Our son has been attending nursery since the beginning of this year. The teachers have been absolutely amazing in helping with learning, being independent and social activities. The staff are really friendly and helpful and always take the time to speak to us, letting us know how our son's day was. Sending our son to Little Academy was the perfect choice, not only is he really enjoying his time there but as parents we have seen how much he has thrived in the few months of being there. Would highly recommend The Little Academy.

   My son absolutely loves going to The Little Academy Day Nursery! He has enjoyed every moment he spends there, and I couldn't be happier with our choice. His key person is simply amazing. She connects so well with him and does a fantastic job engaging him with a variety of activities. She also takes the time to record his milestones and any new developments, which I greatly appreciate as a parent. Another staff member in particular is also wonderful with him, and I can tell that he feels very secure and comfortable around both. Both ladies put so much effort into creating fun and educational activities for the children every day. I was initially nervous leaving my baby in nursery due to the stories you often hear, but seeing how much my son loves it and how well the staff care for him has put my mind at ease. The manager has been a great support and her assistance has made the whole experience even smoother. One of the best features of nursery aside from the fantastic staff, is the family app.

   Wonderful nursery, staff are very patient caring and above all take feedback extremely well. They listen to any concerns you may have and are happy to do whatever they can to help your child and you have the best possible experience with them. They have an extremely flexible attitude and are beyond accommodating to ensure parents are happy with how their child is being cared for. Their primary focus is the child and honestly I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our daughter has just started and although she took a while to settle the process was fully child led and inturn our daughter has settled extremely well. Communication from the staff is fantastic always kept up to date on how our girl is doing. Very grateful for such an accommodating and supportive nursery. They put together lots of scheduled activities for the children regularly to enhance their learning in a safe and fun environment.

   My son has been at The Little Academy since he was 9 months old. He's now 4 and doing his final year there and our second born is set to start in the new year. We love The Little Academy, they've become a part of the family and we know he's in safe hands. The meals are balanced and activities vary to keep the kids. The staff are amazing
