We love everything about this nursery and couldn’t imagine our little girl being anywhere else. There are amazing activities and plenty of time spent outdoors (weather permitting) and my daughter has made some wonderful bonds with the lovely girls there.

A nursery setting like no other, LLF is a wholesome environment based on a family farm, serving home cooked food and is full of friendly faces. The staff are great and really do care for our kids!

Amazing nursery that my little boy has been attending for the last year and half. He loves his busy days, indoors and outdoors with the opportunity to explore hillside/woods, farm animals, walks out in the community and fantastic activities. Staff are approachable,  show lots of care & love and keep you updated with great communication throughout the day to keep your mind at ease. Best decision we ever made

Little Latham Farmers is truly the best! Our little boy enjoys his days here so much and is excited every morning to go! Libby and her team go above and beyond with the children to make sure their days are fun filled with so many learning experiences. We literally can’t thank them enough for all that they do.
Jarad
Our first nursery experience when our daughter started in September. She’s settled so well thanks to all the wonderful staff at LLF. We love the Famly app & getting regular updates through the day. It also helps us talk about nursery at home as we can discuss activities & other children. We love the themes for play & activities.
Catherine
My son has been at little latham farmers since September and loves his time there. He is always learning new things and talks a lot about what he gets up to with his friends. The staff are amazing and have gone above and beyond to support my little one on his learning journey. Only down side is they don't take adults
