As dbboy says, only one neighbour is bringing the legal action, supported, in kind and financially, by the TLERA road representative and the committee of TLERA.

Some other neighbours were initially objecting to the nursery at planning stages, but it has become clear that several of these neighbours have changed their minds since the nursery has been up and running, as they realised that it has no impact on the quiet residential nature of the street.

The family running the nursery did have extensive talks with neighbours, and at no point then or since have objections been raised directly to them. The one neighbour they didn't talk to admittedly was the one bringing the action, but that was because after 5 attempts, the neighbour was never at home to be informed. The family also requested a meeting with the TLERA committee before the planning application was made to explain their plans and solutions in place to reduce any potential impact - this request was refused by TLERA. I'm not sure what else they could have done to minimise risks.

So now it seems to be one neighbour against the nursery, with over 130 local residents supporting the nursery - as shown by the support on the e-petition set up by Friends of Piplings. (if you haven't seen it take a look at friendsofpiplings.org)
