Testimonials 2025/26

Little Sponges is a unique and special education establishment. I have personally found it hard as a parent to transition to a prep school, after experiencing the warmth and personal care at Sponges! No other educational establishment can match up to it.

Nicole, Simone and her team are all fantastic - they are highly knowledgeable, incredibly caring and totally dedicated to the education of the children in their care. Not only do they provide a safe, supportive and nurturing environment which both of our boys loved attending, but they also take the time to engage properly with the parents e.g. a proper in-person parent evening where you can have a fully engaged and in-depth discussion about your children’s development, alongside daily updates/photos, so you can track your child’s development and learning.

Both us and our boys will miss Sponges greatly!

Louisa has thrived at Little Sponges and thoroughly enjoyed her time with Ms Nicole and Ms Simone. Little Sponges Montessori framework is so refreshing and brings out the best in the children. Each child is viewed as an individual and all staff really get to know their individual personalities and strengths. Louisa had not been to any nursery or other formal setting prior to joining and was initially upset at being separated from us some mornings but Nicole and Simone were incredibly kind, reassuring and gentle with her - and she soon decided that she loved going there! Every day she came home excitedly showing us paintings and other crafts she had learned, or telling us what songs or stories she had learned and who she had played with.

Louisa is our second child to attend Little Sponges and we already have her 4-week old sister registered to attend. We could not recommend Little Sponges more and only wish that our children could spend more time there!
