Motor skill development in London

“I like this place so much that I even worked next door to the nursery in the restaurant. It's lovely atmosphere. Very relaxed and you feel like at home. The nursery have very nice teachers and beautiful view next to them with lots of nature,marine boats,swans,ducks etc. During summer time it's wonderful. The nursery it self is nice and my daughter enjoyed her time there.”

“I was impressed from the moment I arrived. A very well run school in my opinion. The office staff were lovely. The headteacher was approachable and interested in everything that was going on. Everybody seemed happy. I worked with sixty very attentive and enthusiastic year 2 children. They were very well mannered and I was particularly amazed at how when I asked a question a see of hands shot up but nobody shouted out. (I mention this because I work in a lot of schools and this is unusual. To me this is indicative of a good learning environment). I was not surprised to hear in the staff room that nobody leaves. I was extremely well looked after throughout the day. Great school!”

“It is obvious that Miss Malina is truly passionate about childcare and child development. She is Montessori experienced and this is apparent in the techniques she uses in the daily activities she does with the children in her care. She is a great person to work with and runs her business very professionally providing all the necessary documentation and updates on your child on a daily basis. My experience at Pollywogs thus far has been very good and I would highly recommend Miss Malina’s services to anyone looking for good quality childcare.”

“My son had been going there for 18 months. The difference Mrs Jiwa and her team made for him has truly amazing. Due to the small setting, he was getting the attention he needed. Mrs. Jiwa goes above and beyond with helping the children. The support and and encouragement she has given with obtaining an EHCP has been tremendous.”

“My daughter joined apple tree day nursery 2 years ago and she is happy there. Staff are friendly and supportive.”

“Incredible nursery with the most amazing and caring staff.”

“I was looking for a Montessori nursery in the area for my son, however, there was none that followed the exact Montessori curriculum and I had to send him to Kensington instead. Now, that My Montessori School has opened, our son is going there and we couldn’t be happier. He is growing more and more confident and independent. He loves going to school and he seems to be learning a lot. The nursery is very bright and spacious and the staff is lovely.”

“My son has been here only for 2 weeks and I have to say Iv noticed him flourish, this preschool needs more credit for their work, They provided me with an app where they post pictures and write about his progress and areas he needs to work on I have to say Iv been paying bright horizons for him to be there all day before, I cannot say that for the money you pay that the service is anywhere near It cant even compete Burgh Wood Montessori your amazing Joanne is doing an amazing job Thank you”

“Having had 2 children attend Peregrines Nursery, I highly recommend it! The nursery is a co-ed nursery, part of Falcons School for Girls. They recently started taking children as young as age 2yrs/nearly 2yrs. There are options for children to attend during term time or extended care for up to 50 weeks/yr. Staff are very kind, caring & thoughtful, always greeting children with a smile on their faces. Facilities are clean and set up as a welcoming, pastoral environment for children of nursery age. They have a spacious outdoor play area where children happily roam at outdoor playtime, and an on site Forest School set up for the children to attend weekly. Inside has plenty of space as well and is set up thoughtfully for different focus areas of play and learning, catering to the range of ages in nursery. Class sizes are small, allowing the children lots of positive attention. My daughter left well prepared & confident for Reception; her 2yr old sister started this year and loves it!”

“Great place for our child to grow, learn and play. From day one she is thriving, and she absolutely loves going to the nursery. Friendly staff, perfect service and fabulous setting. I can’t thank you enough for all your efforts. If I could I would have given even more stars. Really happy that we’ve found you xxx”

“I should have posted this review over 2 years ago when my daughter went to this nursery. All I can say is it's amazing! She loved every second and the children there are being well taken care of. Lovely staff, great facilities and good location. Worth every penny as it helped her tremendously for the start or reception. Thank you!”

“Very nice pre school.... Very polite and well trained staff specially Paula”

“My daughter has been attending Blossom Time since beginning of the year and I cannot express how much this has changed our lives. She is as much in love with the nursery as I am and we couldn't have wished for nicer and kinder people to introduce her into the world of education. Caterina and Judit, as well as the whole team, have been amazing since the moment we met, they've been so friendly and pleasant to talk to and made my daughter's transition into nursery so easy. The nursery is absolutely gorgeous. It's brand new, beautiful and incredibly spacious. There is a countless number of montessori toys and activities, all organised neatly in categories. As a family who finds music very important, I was excited to know there is even a piano that the teachers play for the children. The outdoor area is as well massive and full of entertainment. Everything they do in Blossom Time is full of heart and it's obvious how dedicated they are to create not just a great learning environment for the children but an actual paradise for kids. I couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery and my daughter is ecstatic to go there every time.”

“I can not speak highly enough of Beech Oak Pre-school. The staff are friendly, professional and very loving to the children, which makes going to work so much easier. They have given my son a great start to schooling life. Anyone looking for a local nursery/preschool MUST apply you won't regret it”

“Excellent teachers, healthy vegetarian meals, our boy made friends. It's a small school and the children receive great personal attention.”

“Both my kids have attended NHNS a truly amazing nursery”

“We couldn’t be happier with Chestnut Nursery. Both our daughters go there- both have thrived from day one. The staff are incredible- they care so much tor the children and enable the most wonderful environment to learn, have fun and make really important life skills. The food is so varied and brilliant- they both love it! I believe this is the best nursery in the area. Thank you!”

“I can’t praise Bright Beginnings enough. The staff are all wonderful. So caring, it’s like a home from home. My daughter and son both went to the pre-school and it set them up perfectly for reception. They go the extra mile with summer sports events, nativity, little outings to the local area and regular updates to parents on how little ones are doing. They both raced in every morning. It’s was so lovely to see. I would highly recommend anyone taking a look around to see what they have to offer.”

“Incredible team! Feels like second home for my little boys. Wish we could take all the staff with us onto Harvey’s big school journey.”

“This nursery came to our rescue when our daughter didn't settle anywhere. She loves going and has got so much confidence now!”

“Both my little ones had the best time here. The most amazing staff! Would recommend to all friends and family”

“Caring teachers, friendly and approachable. My son loves it there only been going for 2 months. Co.es out happy every day.”

“Great breakfast, after school and holiday club. My son loves it here and the staff are always very friendly and approachable.”

“I have been taking my child to Tappy Toes in Rickmansworth for the last 2 years. The lessons are just the right length and structure, giving little ones a chance to enjoy the music and dancing, but also learn to listen to instruction along the way. We didn't go for the online Zoom classes during Covid as that didn't work for us, but I appreciated that Tappy Toes were making an effort to bring the dance classes into families' homes and I thought the price they offered for the virtual classes was very reasonable. Since being back in person, I have felt very happy. All adults wear face masks, there are individual spots for each carer/child to dance around and hand sanitiser available. The door was also left open allowing fresh air to flow. We had the chance to purchase our own prop bag (pom poms, dance ribbon) which we liked (and the cost was again, reasonable), but they do have props on hand should you not go for this or forget. I should also mention that my child found going back to class difficult and the team at Tappy Toes dealt with this very sensitively and proactively. I would definitely recommend them.”
