Testimonials


I came in today for Mum's week and just wanted to say how brilliant the preschool is, you can tell from just being there a short while. I love the way you did the register and talked about counting the children etc. She is learning so much there already and has lots of activities that engage her. All of the adults were brilliant with all of the children and you can tell they all really care about the kids/know them well. I was really impressed. Thank you for all that you do for her.

E was so excited coming out of the party yesterday. Thank you all so much for putting the party together for the children.

She was even more excited when we got home and went through her party bag - and so were we! The keepsakes she has made are lovely. It was such as beautiful moment watching her go through the bag and show us what she has made. She is especially proud of her tea light holder which now has pride of place on our coffee table. Thank you so much for your hard work and all the lovely things you do. They're precious moments we will never forget. (December 2023)


My son started Elmwood Preschool in January 2023 at 2.5yrs old. He had never been to nursery or with a childminder so this was a completely new journey for me and him. The transition wasn’t seamless but so throughly eased by the caring, welcoming and experienced staff. He thoroughly enjoys preschool and its been heartwarming watching my little boy learn and grow - especially observing his ability to independently play and play/ share with other children.
The staff are amazing and really do care for the children. Penny greets the children / parents each morning at the preschool door and theres the lovely ladies who welcome us in on the gate. Jane who communicates everything perfectly and is only at the end of the phone or email to help. A special mention to his key-worker Amy, who goes above and beyond and for her weekly detailed updates and photos on the tapestry online journal. Its lovely to see and discuss what he has been up too. I can only imagine the work behind the scenes but its truly appreciated.
I throughly recommend Elmwood Preschool and honestly cant say a bad word. Hoping my youngest gets a place when hes old enough. (November 2023)

As a first time mum and my daughter growing up in lockdown I was worried about her going to a nursery/preschool but from the moment I viewed Elmwood Preschool I knew it would be great for her. All of the staff are so lovely and welcoming, they truly care for all the children and ease your worries. My timid little girl has gained so much confidence with their care, she’s making lots of friends, loves the freedom of play that they have and brings artwork home every week.The activities they put out for the children are brilliant. So much variety for them to explore.
The preschool feels like family. And they care about the children’s family by running special days that family members can visit the setting and play with them, such as mummies day for Mother’s Day. It’s so thoughtful.
I cannot rate this preschool highly enough. My 4 month old is already on the waiting list for when he is eligible to start. (November 2023)

To the Little Learners Team, thank you all so much for taking care of A during his time with you.  He has grown in confidence and changed so much since starting at preschool 18 months ago and even more so since being in Little Learners.  He has loved every minute of it. (July 2023)


Penny and your absolutely amazing team.  Thank you to each and every one of you, you have all been an amazing support in our very difficult journey.  we would most definately not be where we are now without your continious support.  I couldn't  honestly think of anywhere else I would rather H have been.  He has grown enormously and this is thanks to all you lovely ladies.  Words cannot expres how grateful we are to you for your hard work and fighting to get the help H needs to help him moving forward.
