The 30 Best Childhood dance development in London

“I haven’t looked back since I joined Forever. Richard is a genius. His teaching is excellent, second to none, it’s so absorbing, extensive and endless such as technique, balance, character of dance, turns, swivels, spirals, leading, following, the hold , posture, count, timing , hip rotation pendulum action, swing, sway , foot positioning etc covering the wide array of Latin American and Ballroom dances in International style.I am totally engrossed. It’s of immense value to me. My friends and family have all commented that I have grown from strength to strength as a dancer in relatively short time 9 months and leaps and bounds compared to other places. Together with Jeni, I have all angles covered. Both are really attentive to the students in private classes and group classes to make sure we get it right, never taking their eyes off the ball, they don’t miss a thing. It’s quite exceptional how they focus on men and women in equal measure. One revelation to me is learning how to dance beautifully with anyone of any experience or standard , whether an absolute beginner or an advance professional dancer. . The Gala, Cabaret and Medal Nights are so slick, setting, choreography, lighting, photography. It’s so exciting to take part. One of the benefits of dancing, I find, is emotional and mental well-being which positively impacts all other areas of my life and which no medication can prescribe without serious side effects. The only serious side effect of this is becoming a FABULOUS DANCER.I am thrilled for myself that I am at Forever.”

“My daughter has been at KDA for a couple months and she has absolutely loved it. The teachers are great and always try to motivate the girls to be their best. The community is really nice and feels like a family.xx”

“My child attends Miss Kristi's dance school, they learn, modern, ballet, and tap classes. My child and I have been impressed with Miss Kristi's exceptional teaching ability. Throughout the year, my child has made significant progress and gained valuable skills, which have not only helped them learnn to dance but also improved their balance, posture, and physical strength. I would like to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to Miss Kristi for her dedication to excellence.”

“The teachers are very good in teaching all from beginners to the advanced. I highly recommend them!”

“Amazing staff, lovely setting. Our daughter absolutely loved her time here at Faces. Highly recommend this Preschool. Aleya's mummy and Daddy.”

“Both of my children attend this nursery. One started at 10 months old and one at 2 years old. The staff are absolutely amazing with both of them. I can truly say I have so much faith in all of the staff and the nursery itself! I even leave my children there beyond there normal hours and the nursery are happy to work around my work schedule. My children love the nursery and have made so much progress. This nursery has been a god sent to me - really amazing work guys! Thank you Magicwords Nursery!”

“My eldest has been going to Jigsaw since he was 3yrs old and our second quickly followed suit; they are now 7 and 5 respectively and it’s been incredible to watch their growth and also to see how much they enjoy their classes and the friendships they have made. Both of them have no qualms about being on stage at school and I’m sure that their time at Jigsaw has played a huge part in that! The end of term performances are always a highlight and our children are so proud of themselves and excited that we are coming to watch. We also really enjoy reading the individual reports that the teachers have taken the time out to write. Our youngest is just turning 3 and will now be starting her first term! Most classes for 3yr olds require parents to be present so we were slightly nervous when our son started but not now with our youngest; the staff are exceptional and it’s great for their confidence to enjoy a class without parents at that age. Would definitely recommend!”

“My son loves going to nursery now. He excitedly runs to get to press the doorbell to go in and comes out smiling at pick up. It wasn't an easy start for him as he hadn't been away from me apart from with a couple of other family members before. Staff were accommodating and mindful of his needs and discussed with me how to help him settle and worked to find a strategy that made him feel nursery was a safe space. They were also very kind when I had my own little wobble as I was feeling worried about the whole situation. I love that new activities are set up each day. Pictures of these and of what the kids are up to are posted on the private parents facebook group a couple times a day. It means we can show my son and chat about his day and what is going on at nursery. It helps build his speech, but also allows us to learn more about who is important to him at nursery and what he enjoys even though he isn't yet able to express it fully in words. My son enjoys being outside. With the nursery's vast garden and free flow between in and outdoors most of the time, he clearly makes the most of it. Good wipe down coat advisable.”

“We absolutely love the whippersnappers Christmas and fairy land and have taken our children several times. Always so magical with such attention to detail - such a joy to be part of.”

“Our little child started nursery when he was 11months old and had a quite complex heart condition. The compassion and determination from the Boys and Girls Nursery Stanmore to cater for his complexities and ensure they could take our son on was brilliant. Even before he started they went over and beyond to speak to all of the healthcare professionals to ensure that they could fully cater for our sons needs. From Amy and Chloe and Sharon for all the admin things to get him over the line. From Rachel and team in nursery where they got him turning over (even though he was months delayed) to then crawling and walking. To then Lisa/ Amelia and team in pre-toddlers post his operations helping him build the strength to do all of the activities and become a chatter box. To then Sinead and team in toddlers to then prep him to join his new school. We cannot thank you all enough for your efforts, we as a family are truly grateful and happy that Boys and Girls Nursery was his first academic home.”

“Our daughter has been going to Minis since she was 1 year old and she really loves it there! It is amazing to see how many things she has learnt the past 2.5 years and how the team in every room (but especially in Toddlers and Tots) have helped her to build up her confidence!! All the staff here are very helpful, supportive and paying close attention to children's needs. I also like the fact that every day they are doing plenty of indoor and outdoor activities - 2 walks weather permitted - and kids seem to really enjoy it there!! We highly recommend Millenium Minis!!”

“Aysel and the team organised my daughter's 6th birthday party. Extremely professional, patient, organised and thorough. The team showed up promptly for venue set up and 2 onside managers made sure the party ran like a military operation. I will certainly be using them again and highly recommend the same of you!”

“I could not recommend Tinkys nursery more! My daughter has been attending since age 1 and almost 3 now . From social development to academic development, my daughter has made excellent progress in her learning and social skills . Their attention to detail is next to none and they really do keep track of all activities/events each day to report to you on email and collection of your child. The freshly made nutritious meals are just another bonus. The staff are warm, friendly and approachable and my daughter is happy to see them when I drop her off and I know that she’s had a good day when I collect her as she chats about what she’s been up to. She has thrived since starting Tinkys and made special bonds with her peers and care givers . I feel confident leaving her with the lovely team knowing that she’ll have a great day and will be well cared for and treated as an individual.”

“We have been going to Gymboree Sevenoaks for the past 2 years. It is a fantastic place and the staff make you and the children feel at ease very quickly. The activities are well prepared and thought through. There is a variety of activities and every week there is a different theme. We have seen a notable improvement in our little ones' development. We also recently decided to organise a bday party. We are EXTREMELY happy we made this choice. I don't think we could have chosen a better place and staff. All guests left really satisfied and most importantly our little one with a big smile on their face. Thank you Gymboree team!”

“My son is 22 months old and he hasn’t settled well in a few nursery’s I’ve taken him in the past few months. He has settled in Over the rainbow so well that I’m in shock and not only that but just in a few days he’s seems to have better interaction with us and wants to play at home more and is very joyful. I’m so glad I found this nursery. The staff is what makes this nursery .. it’s not a fantastic location but the activity’s and the staff are unbelievable and just so easy going, informative, gentle and reassuring. I’m very thankful and can’t wait to see my son blossom as I know he’s in the best care. Honestly this nursery is brilliant. Servete is my sons key worker and she’s so lovely. But every staff member there is just fantastic.”

“The nursery is absolutely fantastic at looking after my child! The staff especially are super friendly and they are also caring towards my child and are really good at helping him grow and develop as he’s getting older. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nursery for their child in the local area, Angela the manager is a credit to the company !”

“I was invited to College Green Nursery last Thursday as a visiting author/illustrator to share my children's books and storytelling with the children and was very impressed by the warm reception of very friendly staff led by the Headteacher and particularly by Nawal Filali Naji the facilitator of my visit. I was most impressed by just how settled and happy the new intake of 4 year olds were, and their enthusiasm for participation and learning. It is likely down to what I think I detect as the Nursery's environment of structured pastoral care and love.”

“This was my old school 1964 - 1971 the boys play ground was on the left at the end of the long drive and girls and juniors to the left my wost teachers were from class 7 -9 but at class 10 Mr Williams was my best teacher this school had its mini swimming pool to the rear of the dinning area in the boys playground and still had bomb shelters Beside the play ground happy memories”

“A wonderful nursery. Our son has been at fernbank for 3 years now and has yet to have a bad day! Extremely dedicated staff and great learning and play environment..”

“Ringrose is absolutely outstanding; both of my children had a wonderful time here, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. I looked around all the nurseries in Chelsea and South Kensington, and Ringrose stood out because of the holistic nature of the experience offered: not only does it offer a fantastically nurturing and warm environment for little ones to flourish, but academically it is rigorous and gives children a great head start when they begin at school as the children are taught phonics very thoroughly indeed and are able to read to a high standard when the leave. St Luke’s Hall is airy, spacious and light, and they have St Luke’s gardens and football pitches on their doorstep so there is plenty of space for them to roam around and enjoy their weekly Playball lessons. I really appreciated the flexibility offered - afternoon sessions are optional, and that is unusual as most nurseries require full day attendance during the second year. The Christmas and summer term productions were always a total delight. Above all, the staff are, without exception, friendly, kind, warm and extremely experienced, and I always felt that I was leaving my children in the most capable hands: both of my children would skip in without a backward glance. Over the past four years my children and I have made some incredible friendships; there is a great community spirit amongst the parent body. I am sad that our time at Ringrose has now come to an end, but I shall cherish the happy memories and continue to recommend it unreservedly to any prospective parents.”

“İ love this nursery, my son started to go this September and they are so friendly”

“My grandson attends this beautiful nursery, very friendly and personal to each child's needs. Staff are lovely and very caring. Management are great and always ready to support your children's needs/requirements. My grandson arrives happy and never wants to leave, he's goes on lots of trips and walks but his favourite part is the soft play area.”
