Childhood learning in London

“TAS is an excellent nursery and pre-school setting. My little one has been there for just over a year now and it's been wonderful to see her flourish. The staff are so warm and caring - she and we have great relationships with all of them, and we feel very much a part of the TAS community. The staff also clearly know all the children as individuals and encourage their interests and development accordingly. The approach to learning is fun and creative, whether it's within the setting or out in the community or forest school. If you're looking to get your child into private school, they will do everything they can to help achieve this - I was very impressed with the time and effort invested in getting the children into first choice schools. I also really appreciate the high standard of communication with the parents, as well as the effort they put into celebrating a diverse range of events, often including the parents too! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend TAS to other families, and look forward to my younger one joining the nursery soon!”

“My 11 year old daughter has been attending Art-K for approx 3 years. She loves it. She's always liked art but it's now a passion. She's not overly keen on outside school commitments but Art-K is priority number 1. Kathryn is already laying the groundwork in place to prepare her for an art scholarship. Her school have picked up it too and placed her in an art scholarship group. Thank you for recognising and nurturing her talent, Kathryn. We are all sincerely grateful. Pete”

“Step by Step Montessori has surpassed our expectations. The team are amazing, caring and fun. Our little boy would run in every morning he went and would come home with a big smile on his face. The manager and her team were accommodating and flexible, always happy to go above and beyond for every child. They always kept us updated with progress our kid was making. He came on developmentally leaps and bounds over couple of years he has been there and it was always great to feel so confident in his care. I would highly recommend Step by Step.”

“Really haply with the facility as well as the staff members, really friendly, professionals and do know how to understand the child's needs! My daughter used to cry so much at first, but after a few sessions she started to eat better, to enjoy more and made friends to play with! I do love that they have a very good routine in place that works well around the little ones needs, when she come home after a day spent she really is ready to go to sleep after a busy day at nursery!”

“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!”

“My daughter has attended pound park for a year and I could not be happier. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming and my daughter loves coming to nursery every day. They have been so supportive of my daughters needs and have given her so much help as well as supporting us as a family. They are brilliant at keeping us informed with whats happening in and around nursery and have gone above and beyond to support us with our transition to reception after the summer. We could not have asked for a better nursery. The dedication, enthusiasm and care from the staff has been beyond amazing and the free flow of the nursery has benefited my daughters development greatly. We will be so sad to be moving onto our new school in September and wish we could take all the staff with us.”

“My both daughters are attending KDA classes since 2 years and don't want to miss a class. I am feeling safe and happy to be a KDA mom as my daughters are really improving their skills and excited with every step. We don't even miss their holiday camps.”

“My son has attended wonderland nursery since he was 2 years and still going on at 3.5 years old now. The staff and management are experienced, great at their job and really care about the welfare of the children. My child has learnt and developed so well since joining the nursery. Kudos to all the staff for the great work you do. I will highly recommend wonderland nursery to my friends and family. Thank you for your care and professionalism. Theodora (Mum)”

“My son started when he was a baby, and he is in pre-school now, we are really happy with what MPH provides, and he enjoys going to nursery Activities are fun and at the same time meaningful he learns a lot He enjoys the cooking club, drama and dance and football club. I love their famly app, we get pictures and updates throughout the day, staffs are very friendly and kind We enjoy their summer fair event, picnic, and sports day where we get to mingle with other parents. They also host twice a year parents meeting where we get all the updates and what is the next step for our son, which is helpful for us to support him at home. We love their new building, very clean and tidy Also, our son enjoys the food at nursery which is prepared fresh and is happy with the balanced food menu. Overall we are really happy with the nursery and the service they provide, our 2nd baby will be joining there soon too. Farzan and Miya ( parents)”

“My daughter went to Bumblebees from 8 months until she went to school and my son from 9 months and he's still there! We love it! It's such a friendly, homely and family orientated nursery - with a wonderful warm and fun atmosphere. My kids have learnt so much! They're an amazing extension from what we do at home learning manners, sharing, social skills and most importantly they felt safe secure and had a ton of fun every day!!!”

“My son has been at this nursery for almost 2 years and he loves it here. The teachers are all amazing - very caring and engaging and have really helped my son develop. The activities are very well thought out and the organic food is very good. He eats a four course meal every lunch!”

“Perfect dog groomer, our puppy was so relaxed, love the way Siboney trimmed his hair, just perfect. Can't recommend her enough, won't go to other groomers for sure.”

“My son goes to school there, it's for children with learning difficulties. The teachers are warm and welcoming and he loves it there.”

“Great staff! They are super friendly. There are loads of activities for the kids and the rooms are well equipped.”

“Our both daughters used to go to Les Trois Oursons in 2016-2017. Elena in the Lions room and Sofia in the bunnies room. We cannot recommend the nursery highly enough and we would have definitely continued the next year if we have not moved back to France. For us it was more than a simple nursery. It was like being the part of a family. It is also where I have discovered Montessori methodology. Elena was very shy when she started going at Les Trois Oursons and in the end she was full of confidence, made lots of friends and started talking a lot, both in English and in French. It was also great experience for our little baby Sofia who started the nursery at 10 months. Just a few days to adapt and then she was enjoying every single day there. We would like to say a BIG thank you to the whole team: Regina, Marie-Catherine, Pippa, Anabelle, Maya, Hend, Laure, George. Thank you for everything you have done for Elena and Sofia. Many hugs from Paris :) Tamar & Olivier”

“We hired the event space upstairs for a child’s birthday. We loved the modern clean space and helpful support from Miriam at the nursery. It worked really well for our medium size party and it was easy to clean at the end.”

“Boys and Girls Stanmore is such a lovely nursery. All 3 of my children have gone here with just my 2 yo son left. The setting is well kept, clean and a very bright and welcoming place for both the children and parents. Every member of staff is friendly and helpful. Reception staff are great and always a very reliable source for communication which is key when you are leaving your children in someone else’s care. The carers in all the rooms of the nursery are so wonderful - kind, caring and my children established great bonds with all the carers as well as their key person. There are great facilities and you can tell a lot of thought goes into all aspects of the nursery from the toys to the displays and the activities provided each day. The new garden is amazing and the kids are always so excited to get outside. The food made on site by the nursery’s own chef is fantastic.. my children ate/eat so well at nursery and are a lot more open to trying different foods. Both my daughters were ready and well prepared to start their school journey with a huge thanks to Boys and Girls and I have no doubt my son will be the same. I would highly recommend boys and girls to anyone looking for childcare!”

“Both my son's have attended Stars In Worcester park from the age of 9 months old. I have always been extremely happy with how the staff nurture my children. Leaving your baby with someone for the first time is always nerve wracking but Stars not only care for the children but are good at supporting us as parents too. Both my children have allergies, which the team at Stars take very seriously and ensure they carry out my wishes and stick to action plans. My children have made good progress here in the warm, fun environment that has been created. My eldest son graduated from Stars in July 2019 and is now thriving at primary school. I believe that Stars laid down good foundations for him in the way of following routines and becoming familiar with numeracy and literacy. He is articulate and confident and I believe that this was developed during his time at nursery. The team are professional with clear practices and procedures. A very happy mum.”

“It’s such a pleasure to watch our little girl get so excited because she’s going to her nursery! She is very, very happy and is learning at a fast pace thanks to her teachers. The staff are wonderful and so caring. Thank you East Lane Montessori, this is our second child who has been with you.”

“Funky Owls is such a lovely nursery with fantastic staff. After our previous experiences at a larger 'chain' nursery, it's been so wonderful to send our daughters to a setting with a great emphasis on community and where all the staff know all the children. An added bonus are the great extra curricular activities, such as tennis and music. Our shy 3 yo old now loves going to nursery and our cheeky 20 month old has been supported so well since she joined as a baby. We cannot fault our experience with Funky Owls and we are excited to see the new venue once it's finished!”

“Now 19 and 12. My 1st was part of the grand opening of Noahs Ark. To this day the Nursery are like family to us. The fine detail and quality of the love shown, the food (vegetarian diet) and the teachings at Noahs Ark does not go amiss and the consistency has remained. Recommended without a doubt!”

“Bright Little Stars Stanmore is a perfect choice for the nursery for our daughter. She's absolutely loving it there. Always so happy to leave home, knowing she's going to be playing with her favourite teacher, Vilas. Also, many, many thanks to the Chef, Joanna, who found time to help my baby to settle in the thirst weeks. The level of care and education is exceptional, by far has exceeded our expectations. We could not have chosen a better place for our little star! Thank you to everyone at BLS!”

“Amazing Nursery! My son started to attend Base Zero from 10 months old and as a first time mum with a lockdown baby I was very nervous at first but the staff helped him settle in really well and he’s enjoyed attending ever since. He has developed so much since attending and takes part in loads of different activities every day. The staff are all lovely and always happy, I knew from the first time I came to view the nursery it was the perfect place for my son and I was right. Would highly recommend !”

“Wouldn’t want to go anywhere else to get my tatts. Tasha done an amazing job, her art is amazing and it healed so well. Best therapist session. Thank you Tasha ”

“Well thought out, changing things to do all the time. Brilliant”

“I had my son's 4th birthday party at the Sevenoaks Branch. We had a brilliant time and the staff were so helpful in making sure the party went smoothly. It was all set up when we arrived and they were great in making sure the table was ready with lunch on at the right time and they made sure the cake was cut and ready to hand out for us at the end. I'd highly recommend using them for a party. The kids had a fab time and by the time the party ended I was still feeling calm and stress free!”

“Lovely staff, welcoming and helpful. Good quality activities”

“Amazing and unique experience today. Greeted with hot chocolate and mulled wine, Santa's sleigh, a movie about Christmas in Ghana, drumming session, Mrs Claus kitchen, face painting and then santa himself. It's local and convenient. Will come again next year”

“I went to what I thought was going to be a 2hr guided tour of the museum and it ended up turning into 4 and I was not disappointed. I've since been back twice to watch old films and it is such a lovely (and inexpensive) experience. I highly recommend doing both. The venue is well kept and interesting and all the fellas who work there are clearly very passionate about cinema, which is infectious. Check their website for what's on!”

“Our daughter has been at Bright Little Stars since she was 6 months old, and in the past two years she has thrived. As she's grown we've always let her do things at her own pace and I love that the nursery have been incredibly supportive of our parenting style, and given us encouragement and support. The staff genuinely love the little ones and it creates a very warm and nurturing environment. As we've now had to start thinking about schools, the nursery have been hugely helpful in helping us understand the process and how to choose a school that's right for our daughter, and without that support I would have been truly mystified. I love that I can ask the staff questions without feeling like it's a silly question, or let them know if my daughter has any particular needs that day or week. I really can't say enough good things - highly recommend Bright Little Stars.”
