"I have been sending my son to Little Flyers for the last couple of months, and couldn't be more reassured that Abbie, Ellis and the rest of the team are offering the very best care. The family atmosphere the team create is unmatched, and reassures me that I know my little one is in safe hands! I couldn't rate Little Flyers at Ingliston highly enough, with their homey feel and great outdoor space. Anyone looking for a great nursery need look no further."

"I absolutely love Little Flyers nursery for my daughter. She only started in December and I can already see a big difference in her. There's so much for the kids to play with and the love and attention they receive is brilliant. When I went for a visit I knew this was the right place for her. The staff are all very good and approachable and I know my daughter is in safe hands. I highly recommend it."

"Little flyers provides a home from home. I can’t recommend Little flyers enough. We have 2 daughters attending the ingliston setting. They are so responsive to any requests, any staff member up to the company director knows the children and details about their needs, activities etc. The interest and care the staff have in the children is second to none."
Catherine2022
"The team at Little Flyers Ingliston are absolutely fantastic. I was searching high and low for a nursery that would accommodate our ad hoc childcare needs which differ week to week due to working patterns. Little Flyers have been amazing at accommodating our needs and are SO great with our little boy, Theo, who has been loving Little Flyers since his first session when he was ten months old. He loves going to nursery and the photo updates during the day let us see all of the fun adventures he has with his nursery buddies when he’s there. If you’re looking for a caring, friendly, family feel nursery, look no further. They’re amazing!"

"Both my children attend Little Flyers. The staff here are always kind, friendly, enthusiastic and caring. They get to know the kids really well and build a genuine rapport with them. We get daily photos showing what the kids have been up to, and can easily contact the nursery if we need to. The kids couldn't be in better hands!"

"Little Flyers is fantastic. The staff are incredibly attentive and caring. My son started back in July and settled in so well. He absolutely loves it and to see how he has developed is just brilliant. The staff are great at keeping in touch and updating you throughout the day via the App as well as taking the time to talk to you at pick up time. Thank you Little Flyers 😊"
Jenni Burrell2020
"My daughter started attending this nursery a couple of weeks ago. She has settled extremely well, the staff are lovely and the setting is very inviting. There are many things for the children to do and play with. As a qualified nursery nurse and childminder I was very anxious when finding a nursery for my daughter but I believe I have chosen the perfect nursery for her. The staff are experienced and caring. I’m very happy with this setting and highly recommend it to any anxious parents looking for the right childcare for their child."
Megan Anderson2020
"We adore little flyers. Every day our wee girl spends there we are shown how good a decision we’ve made. The teaching staff are incredible. We’re kept up to date throughout the day on what she’s doing, when she sleeps and what she eats. They send us wonderful pictures and we receive a daily report. Little Flyers in our opinion genuinely is THE BEST! Helping a very happy and content wee girl become even more so. I would recommend little flyers Ingliston all day long. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
Susie Darroch Paterson2020
"The enthusiastic BYE our son shouts to my husband and I at every drop off really illustrates how happy and excited he is to be at Little Flyers Ingliston. He has settled so well and I am sure that is down to the caring , nurturing and fun environment created by Kelly and the staff. From the moment I did the first tour and met the staff I instantly felt relaxed and comfortable and had the gut feeling this was the right fit for our child. We have not been disappointed, our little boy is thriving, and we would definitely recommend Little Flyers!"
Sophie Hanlon2025
"We’ve had a wonderful experience with Little Flyers Ingliston! Our daughter absolutely loves going each day, and it’s been amazing to see how much she’s grown in confidence and independence since starting.
The staff are incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely care about the children. One of the things we appreciate most is the variety of activities they offer. She especially loves the outdoor play!
As parents of a child with allergies, we’ve also felt reassured by the way the nursery handles her dietary needs. They are extremely careful and communicative, and we’ve never had to worry about her safety.
We’re so grateful to the team at Little Flyers for creating such a nurturing and stimulating environment. Highly recommended!"
Sinead Jack2025
"Highly recommend! Great nursery with amazing staff. My son is currently at Little Flyers and he loves it especially the outdoor classroom. Previously my daughter has attended and has great memories from her time there. The recent scores for the care inspector report doesn't come as a surprise! The nursery had great outdoor space and a homely feel - we've said its like sending our kids to a family member!"
Keith Pettigrew2025
"Our son has recently started little flyers and absolutely loves it. He had a bad experience at a previous nursery so we were apprehensive about starting a new one. But the transition has been really smooth, the staff are all lovely and warm, the garden is amazing. Definitely the selling point for our son, the nursery spend lots of time in the garden and there is an abundance of adventures to be had there."
Hannah Chu2025
"Little Flyers is a wonderful nursery with lovely attentive staff who really care about the kids. The welcoming atmosphere greets your from the bustling garden each morning, where the staff are setting up exciting play stations for the kids. Communication has always been great, with staff updating via apps, and phone calls regularly and promptly. Honestly can't rate this nursery highly enough! My kids love it!"
Alix Arbuckle2025
"Our daughter recently started at little flyers. We have had nothing but good experiences. She is still learning to settle in with her couple of days a week but the staff go above and beyond to make her happy/calm and play away. The communication is great which is what we were after with being a little nervous about it all."
Gemma2025
"Little Flyers has been a wonderful place for my daughter. The staff are caring, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to the children’s development. She’s always excited to go in the morning and comes home happy and full of stories. The communication with parents is excellent, and the environment feels very safe and nurturing. Highly recommended!"
Maciej Miler2025
"We couldn’t be happier with our daughter’s experience at Little Flyers Ingliston. The staff are incredibly nurturing, patient, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth and happiness. The environment is safe, stimulating, and filled with creativity—from engaging activities to thoughtful learning moments every day. It's truly a wonderful place to begin a child’s learning journey."
Kamila Gieralt2025
"Both of my children go to Little Flyers and both have excelled since startingg. My oldest has been there for nearly 2 years and I can honestly say the amazing team at this nursery have helped shape him into the wonderful little boy he is. Our youngest has recently started going and she is slowly growing in confidence and getting to grips with being away from mummy and daddy. Overall I highly recommend this nursery as they care so much about the children and their development."
Logan Russell2025

She has thrived since she joined and the staff are very caring and genuinely interested in the children as individuals. There’s a great variety of indoor and outdoor spaces and activities and it’s clear a lot of thought is put into the activities and learning through them."
