Children's schools in Ilford

“Always very clean and well managed. Other places are cheaper but they are often overcrowded. Go here if you want a pleasant soft play experience with an OK cup of coffee. Oh, and the staff gave my daughter a balloon of the colour of her choosing so extra points for that!”

“Great! Friendly service. Staff where very helpful. The staff and manager were knowledgeable of their merchandise, giving excellent alternative suggestions where necessary. Very happy with our purchases.”

“I decided to send my 2 younger children to May time Montessori on Wanstead Park Road in summer 2019 and to be honest it felt like I was handing my kids over to their second family, second home from the very begining. My 3 year old did not want to leave the place from the induction day. Both my 3 year old and 6 months old showed absolutely no anxiety when I would drop them off in the morning and pick them up after 6 or 7 hours. The children were not only well fed, cared for and loved but also valued immensely as individuals. The way the staff treat the kids taught me a thing or 2 about parenting as well. I couldn't recommend this place enough. The ladies there are absolutely fab! They are professional as well as super warm and friendly. You won't regret sending your children there, you will definitely be seeing and enjoying the positive impact they have on your children.”

“Many thanks from the heart for all your hard work, love, dedication, patience to the children, and for caring when they were not feeling well, making everyday a fun environment to go to which was also very important. Lovely staff were part of our daughter’s development and 1st stages in life and helped preparing her for school through creative and educational activities.”

“First of all, on a day and age where professions are centred based on money, it was overwhelming and very pleased to meet a Head Teacher like you. Secondly thanks to all your teachers and support staff too who was around our little one providing an excellent foundation for learning all activities. We are extremely happy with the progress made by our little daughter in every aspect and we will recommend you Play group 100% to any parent who is interested. We talk about “Florence Nightingale” when it comes to nursing and I am sure that we don’t have to wait that longer to hear your name “Nihan Icel” when it comes to Teaching. Thank you very much again and may God bless you all. Rachel's Dad and MumXxx”

“My son started at the nursery over a year ago now as a baby and at first we were very nervous being first time parents, but we shouldn't have been. He absolutely loves the nursery and the staff and have blown us away with the love they show our son and the time they spend on activities with the children. We get regular updates and photos of the fun he's been having. Once we knew we were having a second we made sure to let the nursery know quickly for a placement, now both are with Adventures and couldn't be happier. The staff here are fantastic!”

“Good School. Very friendly staff. Special attention given to extra curricular activities.”

“Since joining the Nursery my son has developed in so many ways. He is more confident and balanced and looks forward to going into nursery everyday. The nursery itself is a fun and bright environment ! Our experience of the Nursery has been fantastic for both kids and we would definitely recommend to others !! ❣️ Very experienced teachers who are caring and professional and whom the children respond well to. Thank you !! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Really enjoy this nursery for both me and my son. Kids safe guarding us a huge thing I. This nursery the way the handles are not at height level so the kids cannot open the door the high security and also on going observations. Puts me at ease they are keeping me in the loop. Rumeysha and Priya really enjoy seeing Manav and always getting train tracks ready for when he comes in. It’s when they put that extra effort makes it a whole worth while! Thank you to Toni who is the manager always smiling, Rumeysha sorry if I spelt your name wrong but always reassuring me it’s going to be okay and Priya for her warmth caring self -and of course the rest of the staff.”

“Often, if you are lucky, you get a very good deal. Customer services were excellent.”

“Great trainer! Excellent motivator! My son loves going to the karate club.”

“I have been very happy with my son's experience of Dizzy Ducks Hainault. Staff are friendly and accommodating and have a lovely manner with the children, they are very patient and kind. Staff are always happy to chat at the end of a very busy day to discuss my son's day and progress. My son loves exploring outdoors and the garden facilities are fantastic.”

“the best nursery in the area.teachers are very good and helpful.specially the head teacher.and the teachers in green room.my daugher learns alot from them.i would like to thanks to the staff and recommand to all parents.”

“My son loves coming here and his confidence has grown so much as a result! The Turbelles team are ace! I would highly recommend them!”

“My son has been at Knowledge’s Nursery for about 8 months now. Every morning we are great with a cheerful voice over the intercom at the main gate. The nursery has a wide open playground area for each age group, which is fully secured not only for the safety of our children but also for the staff members. This nursery does a meet and greet for the settling process, Ruhama who is his key worker came to our house and played with my son, so he had a very familiar face once he got into nursery. I felt at easy to know he has a friendly face to welcome him until he was familiar with everyone. Now he runs to all the staff members with a big smile on his face with open arms, and he receives lots of cuddles. My sons development level has surprised me, as he is learning ability is very advanced for his age group. I am able to see his daily activites and development growth through the nurseries app. GREAT ENVIRONMENT!!!! I would definately recommend this nursery 100%.”

“Best childcare facility in London. The staff is really friendly and takes care of the kids. They keep them engrossed in many activities.”

“My son Colin has been attending this nursery for a year, and i could not express in my words how happy he has been. The teachers go above and beyond in not only teaching them, but also showing them love. He has really come out his shell, he learnt a lot, he made really good friends and he overall loved the nursery and it's staff. I highly recommend this nursery for all the reasons a parent could think of. I would give them 10 stars if it would be possible.”

“Nursery is great. Both my kids enjoyed their time there. Staff are helpful and approachable for any advice/guidance I needed. Would recommend them to others.”

“My 2 yr old had a wonderful time in this nursery. Teachers were kind, caring & always ready to help. Nosheen who runs the nursery is amazing, shes always ready to help & talk to parents. Absolutely loved Nosheen’s personality, from the very first time i went to visit the nursery, children were running up to her. She spoke to the children with so much love they seemed to love her so much! I saw teachers sitting down and teaching children in different way, sometimes in groups and sometimes one on one. From sensory to playdough fun they did it all. There are always enough teachers around to watch over children and to help them. The garden was amazing & my daughter loved playing outside. Naps and nappy changes were always done on time. The nursery did their own food, my daughter didn’t eat some food the nursery had on the menu but the nursery was ready to help. Nosheed gave me the meals/snacks menu before her settling in days and I provided some alternatives and told them exactly what she won’t be eating. The nursery replaced the foods always ensuring my daughter stayed away from the food she did not eat. The food was made fresh on site and looked lovely and my daughter said she enjoyed her meals. Whenever i collected my daughter she was always happy playing, only a few odd occasions my daughter cried when dropping off mainly because she was tired or had a bad night but other then that i’ve not seen my daughter cry in nursery. She loved all the teachers and got on with all of them. A big thank you to Kiddy Care for taking care of my baby ❤️ A happy MaMa here xxx”

“Both my boys attended the Barley Lane Montessori Day Nursery before going to primary school. Now they both attend the Barley Lane After-School Centre, from where I pick them up after work. I would highly recommend the company”

“Visited the nursery on Horns road at the open day. Really caring staff who were very attentive to our child can tell they passionate about looking after s children. It had a warm feeling and a very high standard or cleanliness and organisation. Was very impressed with the social distancing and temperature checks in response to covid 19 government guidelines.”

“My wife and I work as Software Engineers. We are new to UK. We visited many nurseries in and around Ilford but found Maytime Montessori Nursery - Valentines Park, a very very special one for our little boy. Maytime is Ofsted "Outstanding" rated nursery. This initially attracted us. The location of nursery in the park is something special about the nursery. While going, my son enjoys seeing trees, birds and squirrels. Nursery has lots of toys and furniture enough to engage children in various activities. Children are closely monitored and parents are informed about over all behavior. Very friendly and supportive staff. They are always available over phone or email. I always got response email. Regular home work kept my little one busy at home. I am happy to see my son narrating what he did at school after coming home. His vocabulary improved considerably. Over all we are very happy. I give five star rating to this nursery. All the best.”

“My daughter has improved a lot in just a few months being in the Nursery. Staff are really nice and accommodating.”

“visited this pre school last week....most impressed. Staff are so friendly and are very experienced....the pre school has been operating here for many many years and is well known in the area as an educational pre-school/nursery...most importantly the children are so happy !”

“My daughter started nursery with Little Learners in April. During her settling in process, the staff raised concerns that my daughter might be autistic. Since then, the team have been hands on with her, from referrals to extra support, and 1-2-1 time. Had it not been for this nursery I still wouldn't have known that my daughter has traits of autism. I am so very thankful to everyone there! Especially to certain staff members that care for my little girl most of the time. The facilities at Little Learners are amazing. Includes a large playground with a lot of toys, bikes, slides, water play etc. The large sandpit is also one of my daughter's favourite, as is the new soft play area”
