A Nursery Built for Keston Families
Situated in the heart of Keston on Oakley Road, Little Sunshines offers spacious indoor rooms and beautiful outdoor grounds at Holmesdale Football Club. It's the kind of setting where children genuinely love coming every day.
Our dedicated team provides a high staff-to-child ratio, giving every child the individual attention they deserve. Key workers form meaningful relationships with children and keep parents informed about their little one's progress and milestones.
We're a small, traditional nursery — and that's something we're proud of. You'll see the same friendly faces every morning, and we'll get to know your child inside out.
Preparing Children for School & Life
At Little Sunshines, our goal isn't just great childcare — it's helping every child arrive at school confident, curious and truly ready to flourish. Here's how we develop school-readiness skills every single day.
Communication & Confidence
Children develop strong spoken language, the ability to listen attentively and the confidence to express themselves clearly — skills that are foundational for school.
Independence & Self-Care
We support children in learning to dress, tidy up, wash hands and manage their own belongings — building the independence that teachers value from day one.
Social Skills & Friendships
Through daily group activities, children learn to take turns, share, resolve small conflicts and form meaningful friendships — vital social skills for the classroom.
Early Literacy & Numeracy
Stories, phonics games, number activities and mark-making all build a strong foundation for reading, writing and maths before children begin formal schooling.
Concentration & Resilience
We gently extend children's attention spans through engaging activities and encourage them to keep trying when things are tricky — building the resilience that underpins school success.
Curiosity & Love of Learning
Above all, we foster a genuine love of learning. Children who leave us for school are excited, curious and ready to embrace everything that school has to offer.
School readiness is not a single lesson — it is built every day through play, routines, encouragement and warm relationships with the adults who know your child best.
Your Child's Safety is Our Top Priority
At Little Sunshines, the safety and wellbeing of every child is fundamental to everything we do. We maintain the highest standards of safeguarding, so parents can leave their children with us with complete peace of mind.

We have a robust safeguarding and child protection policy in place, reviewed annually and followed rigorously by all staff.
DBS-Checked Staff
Every member of our team holds an enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check before working with children.
Secure Premises

Designated Safeguarding Lead
