About MiChild at Little Angels Nursery
Little Angels Nursery, proudly rated as “Good” by Ofsted, has been part of the MiChild Family since 2020. We are located in Blackpool, near Stanley School and Stanley Park. Our nursery features two key rooms: an under twos unit, and our two to four years unit. There are many benefits of our over 2 unit, and our younger children benefit from the learning opportunities they encounter with their older peers, which has helped to progress the children’s social and communication development.

Little Angels Nursery is conveniently situated off Preston New Road. Within a short distance, you can easily access Morrisons daily shop, as well as many outlets including McDonald's, KFC, and Subway.
