We understand that choosing childcare is one of the most important and difficult decisions you will make. 

We know that your priority is to find a nursery that offers the right setting for your child and one that also understands the importance of earning the trust and confidence of you, the parent/carer. At Little Chimps we are here to offer you the security of knowing your child is well cared for and looked after.

  • At Little Chimps we lay down the foundations so that when your child leaves us to enter the next step in their learning journey, they leave happy, educated, independent, confident and with all of the social skills needed for their next big step!
