kids love us
Your child is safe with us.
As the owner of Little Oaks Nursery I’d like to welcome you to this site and thank you for the interest you’ve shown in our setting.
Although the nursery has been established for well over ten years, I have owned it since the start of 2019. Among the many wonderful qualities that the nursery offers, is a fully committed, highly qualified and experienced team: Some of which have been at the nursery for over ten years, with the majority all having worked together for over five years.
Little Oaks is completely focused and committed to the care and development of the children it looks after every day. With structured play, and education through fun, we also ensure we follow the EYFS code of practice in all we do. Through our experience and qualifications, we are delivering well balanced and friendly children that not only posses the necessary skills to take with them to their next place of learning, but also the other life skills like sharing, friendliness, fun and laughter.
I’m proud to have Little Oaks Nursery in our small, but perfectly formed chain of 3 settings and, should you wish to come and see us, I’m confident that you’ll leave both loving the nursery and with an impression of people that enjoy what they do and are the consummate professionals in the way that they do it.
