Educational programs for kids in London

“Just had a Pickle Ball taster session, great fun!”

“Top coaches running Sunday morning football sessions - especially coaches Mo, Thiago, Delarno, Ali. Great at handling kids of multiple ages and abilities - they really get to know them and promote a fun learning environment”

“A very friendly and inclusive team That make a fantastic effort to make all the kids welcome. My son loves attending and learning new skills every week.”

“My 6 year old daughter started ballet classes at TDS nearly 2 years ago and she'd like to sign up to her 4th weekly class from September. It goes without saying that she LOVES it! This dance school is a gem in Teddington. Natalie and her team are amazing and professional in every way. They always keep to the highest standards while teaching and guiding the kids gently and with kindness. There's a nice sense of community feel across the school where the children can feel safe and make friends. The way all the dancers - whether young or older - support each other is so lovely and heart-warming to see. The best place I have been lucky enough to find for my daughter, which I can highly recommend! Thanks TDS!!”

“I have three daughters at this dance school ranging from 7 to 14 years old and all I can say is that Tudor Rose has been a home away from home for them. They have made strong friendships and grown to love dance in all its forms. Debbie has been a pillar of strength for each one of them when they were doubting themselves and has shown them that they can be the best of themselves. I highly recommend it to all parents.”

“I am so happy I finally decided to join ballet classes as an adult, and conveniently this is very close to my home. I just wish I'd found out about it sooner! Very challenging but super fun way to exercise both your body and your mind.”

“Our daughter has been attending this school for many years now. Her commitment to her stagecoach training is a very high priority. I attribute this passion to the excellent teaching cohort. They are encouraging, skilled, and above all, deliver the classes with patient kindness. Our daughter has greater confidence and enjoys the variety of activities immensely. The schools principal, Natasha, is an excellent mentor and communicator. She attends to all parental and student concerns with empathy and professionalism. I would recommend this performing arts school to anyone!”

“My daughter has been attending Stanmore BLS since last Sept and she loves the carers, other kids and the Milkyway room itself. She tells is what she played with on a nursery day, how she put her coat on/off etc. She has a lovely rapport with her key worker and all other carers too. She gets excited at the mention of Nursery! She is soon moving up to Orion and the team have arranged frequent visits to the room in advance so she settles easier - she seems to love the new room and I can see from the room visit that she will have a play-adventure everyday. Also happy with the webinars and learning resources BLS offer - I just attended the potty webinar this week and on the back of that we will soon be ready to implement the tools and advice to our daughter.”

“Monira is an outstanding (and award winning!) childminder and we feel very lucky to have been able to have our son attend her setting from 9 months - and soon his sibling will also be attending. The setting provides safe and professional care, and a loving family atmosphere in which all the current kids are thriving. Monira is a child whisperer, adored by all the kids and always thinking of interesting new activities for them and how best to help the older kids learn new skills. Recommended without hesitation.”

“Popped in here for the first time on Sunday Morning with my Maltese as we recently moved to the area. Superb service would highly recommend! Such a shame they don't do dog grooming here though would have been ideal for me.”

“Both my children attend Seriously Fun Swimming and love the lessons. They have become super confident swimmers thanks to the patient and kind teachers at SFS! They look forward to going to lessons each week and the teachers make it fun a particular highlight being the end of term certificate presentation and “fun week”! I would wholeheartedly recommend SFS to all parents looking to get their children swimming confidently and loving the water!!x”

“Amazing playground. My family visited on a Friday late afternoon during half term. This place is a melting pot of multinationals, all co-existing peacefully and happily. That is why this part of London is so special”

“I took my two kids, ages 8 and 12, to today's show in Southampton, Mayflower Park. We all enjoyed it very much.”

“Very welcoming and well run. Lots of activities outside and in for all the different stages of development”

“Great little theatre for intimate shows - lots of history”

“This is a wonderful project and shop. Affordable, high quality toys and books. Some of my sons favourite books came from here! Excited to pay it forward and bring whatever toys and books are in good condition when he outgrows them. Well worth a stop! The assistants were also very kind once when I was in with my baby and it started pouring rain. My son started crying from hunger and they let me sit down and feed him until the rain was light enough to leave. Just a kind thing that helped me out that day :)”

“We are absolutely thrilled with the swimming lessons our child has received at Surrey Swim School. Our child has been attending for several years now, and the progress has been remarkable. Before joining Surrey Swim School, she attended several other schools, but none of them were consistent in terms of coaches, class sizes, teaching style, and progression. Since moving to Surrey Swim School, the improvement has been consistent and impressive. The class sizes are always kept small, never more than 5 pupils, which ensures that each child gets the attention they need. The continuous assessment and movement up the grades have kept our child motivated and excited about swimming. Joe and his team do a fantastic job. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for the children's progress are evident in every lesson. We truly love going swimming every week and seeing our child's confidence and skills grow. Thank you, Surrey Swim School, for providing such an excellent environment for our child to thrive in!”

“I'm so grateful to have such a good local music school. They have handled the pandemic really well, too. After just eight weeks in the school as an adult piano beginner, all lessons with my tutor were moved online - and she taught me online to a level where I passed my piano Grade 1 with distinction! All the school tutors are great, and have good bios on the site so you can find one which is perfect for you. My lessons are full of laughter and creativity and patience from the tutor, it's something I look forward to every week whether it's virtual or in the school.”

“Best nursery ever! I had a very bad experience with the first nursery my son went to, when we arrived at gingerbread within the first week my son loved it!!!! It was so nice to leave him in the morning smiling and sure he will have a good time! The staff is amazing and very friendly. Kids have so many toys to play with and all the activities are fun. I will definitely recommend gingerbread! Thank you for everything ❤️”

“this is excellent I hope there is a new version of this THANKS by the way I absolutely enjoy using this google app BYE”

“We moved to Next Level last year after spending 9 years at another academy, and honestly, my daughter has made more progress in the last 6 months here than in the previous 3 years elsewhere. This is entirely thanks to the incredible teaching staff. From day one, Nikki has been amazing—assessing my daughter, guiding us to the right class, and helping us choose the best swimming activities (and they have plenty!). The late evening classes are brilliant—no traffic, no rushing around. The water polo camp was a real highlight—well organised, affordable, and so much fun for the kids. My daughter learned new skills, made friends, and couldn’t wait to go back each day. One thing that really stands out is how attentive the teachers are. They watch the kids constantly, guide them, and truly listen to them. My daughter absolutely loves going, leaves every lesson with a big smile, and can’t wait to tell me what she’s learned. Parents can also watch the classes, and the teachers are always approachable if you need to speak to them. Communication is excellent—you receive detailed progress reports, but you can also just have a friendly chat with the staff. They are incredibly encouraging and supportive of the kids. Honestly, it’s wonderful and refreshing to see such dedication. Thank you so much and see you soon! Leah & Ira x”

“Our son, who is 2yrs old now, has been at Beaumont House full time since he was 11 Months old. We have a very good communication with the staff, everybody is very caring, flexible and attentive to him. He is very happy going to the nursery, that's the principal for us. He loves doing messy play, singing, playing in the garden and participating to lots of the experiences that it is proposed!”

“Warm, professional, and truly child-focused Little Lamps Nursery has been amazing for my 3.5-year-old daughter. The staff are caring, patient, and attentive even during her early settling-in and recent illness. Every day is packed with creative play, emotional learning, and genuine joy. They celebrate each child’s background and make families feel supported. My daughter always excited to go to nursery! means that she is enjoying and love being with her friends and teachers. Couldn’t ask for better!”

“A lovely children’s centre with a beautifully designed play room and has great learning opportunities for different ages. There are a range of different areas for play such as small world, role play, reading areas, arts & crafts, sensory & music and also equipment for physical development, allowing children to thrive in all areas of learning. The staff are very attentive, supportive and welcoming. They are always smiling which is reassuring for children, especially those who are new to the setting!”

“Great staff, l remember when my baby got his BCG , it was a cold and rainy day but it ended up being a good day for my baby and l , the place was conducive for breastfeeding and relaxing and the staff were all so nice ,my baby was still a newborn and l was exhausted but that day my energy was boosted and made me more confident of going out and wanting to attend more class.”

“This place is absolutely wonderful. The support you get from each team member and the health visitors is really good. Lots of fun activities during the week suitable for all ages up to 4. (See the booklets or go on the Beckton and royal docks children centre website to see which activity suits your child) your child will develop and as a parent you will learn new ways to interact with your child. Of course the place is also free so you won’t need to worry about prices. One huge advantage is talking to other parents/guardians making new friends (even if your shy like me) and share your child’s growing up experiences with others. Try it out deserves more than 5 stars in my eyes”

“We absolutely love this venue at Sevenoaks. Perfect for meet-ups. We have playdates here with our children and their friends/family on many occasions, aswell as having my sons exclusive party hire here 2 years running. Stress- free. He is crazy about this play centre, and he always loves the adventure. They also give a free pass valid for 6months if you hold ur party here. Its clean, very well run and inviting. Great parking too! There's a cute cafe and snacks for adults and little ones. The staff are brilliant, attentive, extremely helpful and caring. Its such a great venue to inspire amazing learning through play. We highly recommend Little street.”

“We had a really good time at this venue, it was so perfect for a kids birthday, loads of space, a lovely clean kitchen with multiple ovens, fridge etc a separate area for eating. Very clean and quite modern. The people who run the space were so helpful and very friendly. I will definitely book this venue again for sure.”

“Very special ,beautiful place, such an antidote to the busy road nearby.”

“Don't get to go here very often, but when we do we LOVE it. Mandy is so lovely and helpful”
