Little Nippers Childcare is an independent nursery open 51 weeks a year, Monday to Friday, from 8am until 6pm. We are an inclusive nursery catering for children aged 0 to 5 and offer free government-funded spaces for 2, 3 and 4 year olds. We are a Plymouth City Council Open Doors Nursery which means that other settings are encouraged to visit us to see and discuss our outdoor areas and our activity planning.
We offer a stimulating curriculum, delivered by highly qualified staff, in a well-resourced environment. The interior spaces have been entirely renovated and redesigned to provide a calm, motivating atmosphere where all children are encouraged to reach their full potential. Our extensive outdoor space comprises a fully covered decked garden for our younger children, a safe, enclosed garden and a covered, free-flow area for the 2 to 5 year olds.

Services
These are covered areas adjoining the main building where we provide tables, chalkboards and games for children to enjoy a range of activities in the fresh air all year round. This is reserved for our youngest children, up to 2 years old. There are chalkboards, a cosy corner, a play kitchen and benches as well as spaces to grow herbs and flowers.
We work closely with childcare organisations, experts and authorities to ensure our children can play and learn in a safe, stimulating and welcoming environment. This would not be possible without high-quality staff so we invest substantial time and resources in their training and support. Development Matters is a set of guidelines published by the British Association for Early Childhood Education to support each child's individual development.

I was slightly nervous introducing my daughter to nursery full time, but the staff their have been absolutely great. I would definitely recommend little Nippers to anyone! So helpful and supportive, my daughter has enjoyed every single day and always comes home with a smile on her face. Nearly 2 years on and my daughter has grown in confidence, willing to try new foods and loves making new friends. I couldn't rate you more, thank you so much

Little Nippers is a fantastic nursery! Our son has been there for 4.5 years and has thoroughly enjoyed his time there. Being a new mum and leaving my six month old so I could return to work was very daunting… but the staff made the whole process so much easier for me. The staff are amazing with the children and work so hard. I feel like they have been an extension to our family. Would highly recommend them!

Little nippers is fantastic, my daughter absolutely loves it here and adores all the staff. My daughter has additional needs and has been having ongoing assessments for the past 3 years, Caroline and all the staff have been so supportive and have even given up their own time to attend training workshops to help support Emma. We are going to miss this place and all the girls so much when we leave in August xxxx
