Marhaba and welcome to Little Gems Nursery.


Little Gems Nursery is a nursery that embraces Islamic values whilst intergrating them into all aspects of learning. We adhere to the Early Years Framework covering the 7 areas of learning.

Our Approach to Learning


At Little Gems Nursery, we firmly believe that children excel in their learning when engaged in play. This whilst, initiated and directed by the children themselves, is inherently motivating. Our primary goal is to instill a lifelong passion for learning in every child. We achieve this by striking a harmonious balance between unstructured play and structured learning activities, both indoors and outdoors. Our highly skilled staff begin by understanding each child's interests and strengths, viewing them as capable learners. They then meticulously plan play experiences that support and scaffold their learning journey. Read more

About


Little Gems Nursery was established in April 2011 to meet the demand for an Islamic Early Years provision in the community. With accredition from Ofsted, we offer care and education for children between six months and five years old. We firmly believe that the initial five years of a child's life are critical, and we strive to provide a safe environment where values and traits are nurtured from and early age, ensuring that children develop a strong sense of their Muslim identity.


Children are like sponges, absorbing everything they encounter, making it crucial to carefully choose their nurturing environment. We hold the belief that 'The best gift that a father gives to his child is excellent education with outstanding upbringing.' At the nursery, we offer a chance for children to develop a strong educational foundation and the skills to make sound choices in our challenging society.
