Little Acorns Day Nursery & Pre-School

At Little Acorns, we make a consistent effort to give every child a safe, engaging, and encouraging environment. Each child's aptitudes, talents, and skills can be enhanced to the fullest extent possible. Our wonderful curriculum is ingrained by our practitioners' talent, drive, and compassion. Longtime friends Margaret and Christine founded Little Acorns, a privately run daycare, in 2001. Because Little Acorns is not a franchise, the proprietors can devote all of their attention and resources to making it the ideal place for you and your kid. Christine will follow Margaret in retiring in 2021. Along with her husband Paul, Gemma, who had been the settings manager for more than 15 years, became the new owners. With a degree in early childhood studies, Gemma began working as a nursery practitioner in 2002 and assumed management responsibilities in 2008. While Gemma focuses on the care and education aspects of the nursery, Paul, who has a background in IT and is a web developer, manages the facility's finances. With a very low personnel turnover, it has a committed staff team. In addition to management and part of the staff team holding degrees in early childhood studies, all staff members are fully qualified level 3 nursery practitioners. To cover staff absences, illnesses, paperwork, and other responsibilities, the nursery hires additional part-time employees. We also have a cook and a cleaner on-site.
