In response to the review 2nd May 2023 the information which has been provided is untrue and based on hear say ! We pride ourselves on providing high quality care and learning for all children. We are open and transparent and we put the children at the 💗 heart of everything we do positive nurturing relationships are what we pride ourselves on. We contacted both police and CI as this person had published false information over social media platforms and caused unnecessary alarm to our families and staff team.

Concerning accident

Were due to start the nursery and was made aware of a concerning accident. The nursery then refused to offer any reasurance when I phoned and were quick to lie about it. Makes me really concerned to leave my child in their care and also how quick the management changed from being nice and welcoming to very angry and defensive, rather than accepting a concerned parents questions. It's also concerning that these sorts of situations aren't written about in the care inspectorate just because they managed to clear themselves. Feel relief that we avoided another bad nursery experience.

Fantastic Nursery

We started our son at little scholars nursery after the first lockdown and were a bit apprehensive about how he would be giving the circumstances. The staff at the nursery were, and still are absolutely fantastic with him and he has settled in great. Love the fact you don’t need to worry about nappies and food as it’s all included in the price. They also use an app that allows you to see how they are getting on the days they are in which is great to including some pics. Highly recommend this nursery.

Highly Recommend!

I would highly recommend Little Scholars if you are looking to put your little one into nursery. My wee boy started nursery at 11 months, he is not 3 years old and watching him grow and meeting his milestones has been wonderful to watch. All the staff and management are so welcoming, friendly and enthusiastic. It is so wonderful to see my little boy enjoying going to nursery and that's all down to the staff making the nursery a safe and friendly haven for them to attend. The support and love they give to each and every child that comes through their doors is second to none - it's a wonderful nursery! :)

My son loves little scholars

My son loves little scholars. The staff have a great rapport with him, as soon as he seems then he lets go of my hand and doesn’t look back. The staff are very friendly and are great at updating me on what’s going on and checking in to see if there’s anything I’d like my son to be working on. He is more confident and coming out his shell and the staff promote this and support him in his development. I wouldn’t have him anywhere else- I knew very quickly that this was the right decision. I got a great vibe on the first day I visited- the staff made the transition very easy and I even chose to keep my son longer at little scholars as I feel the relationship he has with the staff will allow him to continue to thrive.

Little Scholars is a wonderful nursery - our eldest first went there almost 8 years ago and we’ll be so sad when our youngest leaves in a few months to head off to school. Both of my boys started going as babies and thrived under the care of the LS team. The facilities are great, the variety of activities is excellent and the staff are lovely - totally recommend.

Both my sons have attended Little Scholars 2016-2021 the staff are all lovely & enthusiastic, always thinking outside the box on how to keep the kids entertained and sending picture updates.
All the safety measures are in place and I have always felt as ease dropping the boys off knowing they are being well looked after.
Management always on site and hands on, would highly recommend ⭐️

Little Scholars

My son attended Little Scholars back in 2013 so when it was time to choose a nursery for my girls it without a doubt would be Little Scholars. The staff are lovely and genuinely care will go the extra mile to help. They have helped me out immensely during these difficult times and I cant thank them enough.

Fabulous Nursery

My little boy has been at this nursery since he was just under a year old (he is 4 now). I have loved watching him blossom since starting at Little Scholars. He has come on leaps and bounds with his walking, learning, talking and making new friendships. All the staff are lovely and helpful and will go out their way to help. I am confident in leaving him in their capable hands and look forward to hearing what exciting day he has had when I pick him up. I even have my little girl signed up to start next year at the nursery too. Thank you all for being a super nursery and keep up the good work!

1st class Nursery

Superb Nursery, staff are very attentive and helpful nothing is ever a problem. I feel my daughter gets so much from attending here. My child has been going to Little scholars since 2018 and we have another wee one on the way who will be attending also. Would highly recommend this nursery.

Highly recommended

I have had all three of my kids in little scholars and my oldest turns 12 this week. The staff are great and have been flexible when my work days have changed. I love the fact that their food is provide and I don't need to worry about lunch and snacks. I would highly recommend and in fact I have recommended to family and now have three nephews at the nursery too.

little scholars

I first walked into little scholars back in 2004 and I knew that my son would be very happy here . 5 years later I had no hesitation in sending my daughter. Then in 2016 I got to send my other son to little scholars. We loved walking through the doors and being received by friendly staff with some of them being there since day 1 with my first son. All 3 of my kids thoroughly enjoyed their time at nursery and thrived in the environment provided. My daughter can't wait till she's older and hopefully work there one day. I would have no hesitation in recommending little scholars. I am just sad my days of going are no longer.

Little Scholars Nursery *****

My oldest child started at Little Scholars back in 2013 and my youngest in 2017. Over the years we have had no issues with the nursery. All the staff are very approachable and take time at the end of each day to let you know what my child has participated in. There is a great outdoor garden and woodlands area which is used as much as possible. The Famly App keeps you updated with news, events, activities and what your child has eaten that day. We recently changed our son’s diet to dairy free and this has been embraced by all staff. Providing dairy free treats and making sure he doesn’t miss out. I would highly recommend this nursery.

fantastic nursery !!

We have used this nursery since October 2018. The staff have always been so welcoming and the facilities are amazing. I particularly like that all you need to provide for your child is nappy cream ! All nappies/ hot food is provided to the child and you are kept up to date with a family app which allows you to see how many nappy changes, what food and how much your child has ate etc. You also get updates with pictures of what the children have done for the day. Management are very approachable if you have any issues at all.
My daughter loves the nursery and all the staff. Anyone who chooses this nursery can be safe in the knowledge that your child will be cared for in a very safe environment.

Little Scholars EK

Fabulous garden/outdoor space for all ages with the baby's area being covered over for all year enjoyment. The staff also take the children to a local wooded area to get out as much as possible. Large nursery rooms and separate sensory area. Both my children have always enjoyed the wide variety of food on offer.
