As children progress through to Pre-School age, we introduce them to phonics, writing, numeracy and technology. Our topics are all covered by the Foundation Stage to allow your child to learn in a fun way and to progress at their own pace.

At Littlebrook Nursery we see ourselves as a community. We welcome parental involvement and our door is always open. We pride ourselves on creating a home from home environment and see parents as integral to their child’s development. We listen carefully to parents when they tell us about their child’s personality, likes and dislikes. It is this close partnership that enables us to understand a child’s individual needs. The child’s key person will work with parents to make sure their child is happy, relaxed and making progress.

As a community, we celebrate important events, festivals and special occasions. We know how important it is to look after one another, and we extend this support to local Food Banks and charity fundraising.

Keeping children fit and healthy is an essential part of the care provided within all our nurseries. In addition to our outdoor fitness, we provide children with food that has a 5 * rating from the EHO. Our healthy home cooked meals and snacks are prepared on the premises. We see Nursery as the ideal opportunity to help children eat well and build up healthy habits for life. We provide healthy and nutritious food and drinks and make sure that mealtimes are relaxed and sociable occasions. We believe it is important for children to understand where their food comes from, so we encourage them to get involved in our nursery garden. We grow fruit and vegetables so the children can be a part of providing the food that we then integrate into our menu. The children enjoy being part of the process of getting involved in gardening to harvesting the food, so that they can then share and enjoy what they have grown together.

At Littlebrook, we have a range of activities both indoors and outdoors for your child to discover and explore. We create and plan a range of age appropriate activities so that your child can freely choose and move between areas with the helpful support and direction from our friendly staff.  As a team we constantly self-evaluate activities provided for the children for the ongoing improvement of the nursery experience we offer.

About us

 

 

A small brook meanders and gently flows near to the site where Littlebrook was first established in 1998. Our director, Sunita Arora, was drawn to this small stream many years ago. There is something magical about a brook; it is gentle enough for children to paddle in, yet it continuously flows until it becomes stronger and finds its way to a river, and eventually, the sea. 

 

In many ways, we see Littlebrook with the same outlook. We are always in the moment with the children, enjoying being in the present and watching the joy that comes from playing and exploring. We are also mindful that these moments are flowing seamlessly onwards while they grow and develop, as they too continue their journey - much like the little brook that gently and swiftly flows towards the river.

 

Littlebrook Nursery began in 1998 at Sipson (West Drayton) and since then we have grown substantially across the local area forming two more nurseries: Longford (Heathrow) in 2007 and Oaklands (Egham) in 2016. Across all three sites we demonstrate the same high standards and ethos, ensuring every child is cared for, nurtured and feels happy and relaxed. Our staff work positively alongside one another. We have a range of staff that are Level 2 and 3 nursery Practitioners with Early Years Experience, as well as Qualified Teaching Staff. At Littlebrook, we offer individuals the chance to build on their careers by learning and training at our nurseries alongside our experienced members of staff.

 

Security is very important to us at Littlebrook and we have systems in place for the safe arrival and departure of children. We record all times of arrivals and departures and our access doors are kept secure to prevent any unauthorized access to our premises. All visitors are identified by the manager before accessing the property. Our focus on safety and security is always at the forefront of our minds so you can have complete peace of mind that your child will be safe and secure in their environment.
