THE LODGE PRE-SCHOOL & NURSERY LIMITED 88 Southborough Road, Bromley BR1 2EN

"We are so happy with the care that our daughter receives at The Lodge and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Our daughter has a hearing impairment and I was very apprehensive about sending her to nursery as the next few years will be crucial for her development in terms of developing speech and learning to sign. We knew from the moment we looked around that The Lodge was the right place. Natasha was so kind and welcoming and the facilities are lovely with a real home from home feel. Brooke is our daughter's key worker. She has been fantastic and incredibly pro active in supporting our daughter's development and its clear that they have developed a strong bond. The same goes for the rest of the team who are also very caring and supportive, in particular Emma, Katie and Eloise (who I know), but everyone we have met has a kind word and a smile for our daughter which is lovely to see. She really enjoys her time at The Lodge and I'm so happy that we decided to send her there."

"We cannot recommend The Lodge enough. The warm, caring staff are what make it so special. Our daughter started at 7 months and her key worker Katie was so caring and professional it immediately put us at ease. She helped our daughter flourish and it was lovely to see Katie’s genuine excitement when our daughter took her first steps and started talking. She still calls Katie her ‘best friend’! The transition to the preschool room was smooth and our daughter immediately warmed to her her new key worker Chloe (also her ‘best friend’!). Chloe is very diligent in updating us and we enjoy reading her observations about our daughter and seeing the daily photos via the app. Chloe gives our daughter a lot of care and attention. Lisa has also been a great support. There are plenty of activities and crafts tailored to particular festivities throughout the year. There is also an emphasis on daily outside play plus the occasional trip to the park or library. All the staff make The Lodge a home from home, we would not hesitate to recommend."

"My son attends the Lodge nursery. It’s a great little nursery, it’s always clean and the best thing about it is that all the girls who work there are friendly and attentive and my son particularly loves his key worker Chloe! They encourage the development of their soft and social skills which is great to see rather than just a focus on the curriculum which at that young age is equally important. Overall a great place for your little one to grow, makes friends and ultimately have some fun!"

"Lodge is a magical place where all the children love going to to have fun while learning new skills through an array of different daily activities. All the staff there are so lovely and caring. They truly put children happiness as their number one priority. Our baby girl joined lodge nursery at age of 6 months and hasn't fully transitioned to bottle feeding yet. As first time parents, we were nervous and worried whether our little girl Melody can settle into the new environment well. To our pleasant surprise, Melody adjusted to nursery life and the new routine within a few days. She absolutely loves all the activities and time spent at the lodge nursery. We can see from her little happy face with eyes beaming in the morning when we drop her off at the nursery. The staff also helped us to train Melody to take bottled milk and made great progress in just under a month (crawling and starting to walk). We especially want to thank Katie, Emma and Brooke from the Lodge. They are dedicated, diligent and hardworking. They update us throughout the day with pictures, videos and messages via their app. They chat to us of daily progress at the end of day at pickup. We are at ease and feel so reassured by the team at the Lodge."

"Our little girl has been going to The Lodge for almost 3 years now and we honestly couldn't be happier - she genuinely loves going there every day! She has developed so much from her time there, and the staff truly care about her, and work on developing new skills daily; but always in a fun and engaging way which is super important at her age. Her key person Shauna has been excellent; always happy to chat about how things are going, and any areas we could be working on at home, which we appreciate. All in all we cannot recommend The Lodge highly enough, and will be sad when the time comes for her to move on."
