Little Blossoms Day Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Plymouth for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 to 16:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in March 2024. Open since 2010.
What you might pay
This setting does not publish its fees, and no national dataset holds them. This is what childcare costs across the council, as a starting point for the call.
What childcare usually costs in Plymouth
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Plymouth from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What it is like to attend
The social and emotional well-being of all children is a high priority at this warm and welcoming nursery. Staff are attentive and affectionate towards children, offering plenty of cuddles and reassurance. Babies are very content as staff sensitively soothe them to sleep, for example. Toddlers benefit from staff's skilful encouragement to explore toys and activities. The strong bonds staff have with children support children's confidence and emotional security.
Managers and staff plan a broad and balanced curriculum throughout the nursery.
They know children's individual needs and help them to move on in their learning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to focus more precisely on what they want children to achieve during adult-led activities, to challenge children and extend their learning n enhance professional development opportunities to help all staff to continue to build on their knowledge and skills to improve the quality of teaching further.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
