Engaging classrooms in London

“The Paddington Bear Experience was a truly special day out for both adults and children. The live actors were brilliant and engaging. The set and scenery was incredible - lots of attention to detail! Booking was made easy by the lovely staff. Overall, it was a memorable day out and special treat at Christmas time.”

“Learnt about this nursery by chance in the internet, and I couldn't feel happier of having done so. Despite that my daughter's mother tongue wasn't English, it was admirable to see how well she adapted, since the very first day! All thanks to the excellent team of professionals at Bees Knees, they've supported us whenever we've needed them. I absolutely recommend this nursery.”

“I can not recommend Colby Nursery enough. My daughter attended there for almost a year and we were very sad to say goodbye last week due to moving away. Mary and all the team were absolutely fantastic, they provided a safe, secure and nurturing environment for my daughter to learn and develop. The garden is a welcome addition to the nursery ensuring they children have plenty of outdoor time and fresh air. It really is a fantastic environment for small children and we are so happy and grateful for the time our daughter E had there! We will miss you all so much Colby Road Nursery! Xx”

“Great job, entrusting your baby to have their ears pierced is a big deal at 3 months. Rob did a great job both putting me at easy and piercing my littleones ears. Nice selection of earrings at reasonable prices which included piercing and aftercare liquid with instructions. I travelled over an hour across London but it was well worth the drive. Parking available nearby. Thx”

“We booked Joe for our school Halloween Disco and my word he did not disappoint! Super easy to work with and plan the event, and then the quality of service throughout the 2 hour set was top drawer. Kids and parents were absolutely blown away!”

“I completed digital literacy, English Entry Level 1 and doing English Entry level 2 with them. I like the teacher and also all the things they are providing. Wishing them good luck and also recommend to everyone”

“We really feel like we've lucked out with this nursery. Our son has been attending 3 days a week from 10 months old (now nearly 3 yrs), and he's growing to be such a confident, happy little person - making true connections with his classmates and key workers. The staff at MP Southgate go above and beyond, and truly care for all of our littles! They do such a great variety of activities each day and make a point to celebrate the diversity of the families attending the nursery through art, food and music. I also appreciate timely updates through the Famly app on day to day activities (food, naps, toileting) and his overall development progress. Would recommend to any friend!”

“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.”

“My 4 year old have acquired vital skills, including social interaction and foundational literacy and numeracy, from an early age. I wholeheartedly endorse this nursery for parents looking for a reliable and enriching early educational experience for their kids.”

“This nursery is a great place for our child to grow up and develop. Our son has loved it since joining at 8 months. He is well cared by loving passionate and very qualified staff members.”

“Very happy we chose this nursery. Such a loving and caring environment where I can trust all members of staff. Our 16 month old daughter has been there for 3 months now and we can see such a progress in her speech development and communication. I know she is always well looked after and I know she is always happy to go there. Highly recommend.”

“Thanks to all the teachers who had our children while we went to work to safe lifes.”

“My daughter has been in the Lodge since Jan and we couldn’t be happier. She has flourished in so many areas of development, especially her social skills being surrounded by caring nursery staff as well as other kids. We get great updates with so many photos which gives us so much comfort that my little one is enjoying her day. The environment is very homely with the staff knowing all the children and the owner, Natasha, making the effort to get to know the parents as well.. my daughter especially loves her key worker, Georgeta, who has helped her settle into nursery so well and kept us updated of all her key milestones at nursery”

“Such an amazing venue - so clean and tidy. The staff are so helpful and friendly. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for a space to hire!”

“Such a nice community building with great team members who are passionate about helping people”

“Attended a party here. Nicely placed for children’s party. A bit hard to find entrance to location.”

“**I highly recommend Pramukh Kids Montessori.** As newcomers to the UK, we were searching for the right nursery for our 3.5-year-old daughter. From the very beginning, the owners, Vijay and Srivalli, were incredibly supportive and responsive. Not only did they help us secure a place quickly, but they also took the time to walk us through the UK’s universal funding system—something we knew very little about. A special thanks to Vijay for his personal guidance and time. The nursery itself is exceptional. The environment is warm and welcoming, the facilities are modern and impeccably clean, and the staff are caring and professional. Our daughter absolutely loved her time there and settled in beautifully. Unfortunately, we had to move to another borough and couldn’t continue with them, but for anyone living nearby, I couldn’t recommend Pramukh Kids Montessori enough. It’s a wonderful place for young children to learn, grow, and thrive.”

“I am very happy that I chose this nursery. My son loved it from the first days. All the members made his adaptation very easy and pleasant, so much that the first week when I came to pick him up, he was crying because he didn't want to leave. Thank you all for the care, love, support and contribution to my child's development. It’s been amazing seeing him happy to attend and spend his days at little smile! I definitely recommend it!”

“I would highly recommend Ely nursery, the staff and all so friendly and caring towards the children. They have various activities throughout the day for the children and go about and beyond to help them with their development. They upload so many photos daily of what they get up to, which is so lovely to see! Thank you all for everything! X”

“Little Learners Northwood is a wonderful nursery with a team of caring and nurturing staff who really do go above and beyond for the children. My son has been attending for a year and is thriving thanks to the wonderful team. They take great care of all the children and are so friendly and welcoming. It's wonderful to recieve pictures during the day to see what our son has been up to. Every day the teachers set up different activities based on themes throughout the year such as mothers day, diwali, Halloween, Christmas etc. We are so pleased we chose Little Learners for our son.”

“Great school, great lunch choices, great teachers, unsure of the politics however.”

“It's my children's (Temilola and Pharrell) school . They say it's amazing . The headteacher is Mr Craft , but I April it would be Ms(Mrs) Scotts.”

“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!”

“We’ve sent both our DS to this nursery over the last 3 years. The consistency of care is fantastic; same consistent carers mean they have really taken care and helped our sons to develop. They worked with us through any “leaps”, teething or potty training situations. The chef David has been amazing, catering to their dietary needs (vegetarian, no onion/ garlic) with a smile and enthusiasm. The boys over the years have really enjoyed each day and their time especially with the Montessori approach. We get verbal feedback at the end of each day (whether a quick brief or more detailed as required). We loved that the boys were taken outside to the green common next door whenever feasible and were exposed weekly to music afternoons and exercise / sport sessions. They come back having painted, played, read books, learnt about culture and everything in between. The carers have been amazing - Kim, Rosa, Camilla, Lucy, Tiana, Prima, Cara, Leena, and recently Saheeda - we’ve known most of these over the last 3 years if not all of them (and they are still there!) - that consistency of presence and care has been incredible in providing a “second home” to our children. They know our boys, and saw them grow up from less than 12 months of age to 3 years. It was a really warming and caring environment which helped nurture our sons at such a young age. The love given to them (even at their worst times) was and has been invaluable. We’ve (all of us) had a truly happy experience with the fortune green team. From our perspective and from what I heard from parents at other nurseries, this is the one of the best nurseries in West Hampstead; despite others perhaps being more convenient location wise, or “newer”. Finally, this review has not come as a one-off assessment or as a new parent who recently joined; it’s over 2-3 years of experience with two very different type of DS. Thank you to the fortune green team for being there with us for our boys; my wife and I will not forget our time together and for ALL the right reasons. Lots of love S&K, A&V.”

“Lovely community hub where the range and variety of activities serve the local community and include a playgroup and activities for the diverse community it serves. You can tell that the people who run it really care about what they do. A real gem. Can also be hired out.”

“Great community hub for children and families.”

“Sutherland has been a great nursery! Our son really enjoyed his time there, but he had to leave due to relocation. The highlight was the staff who were very kind and sweet. My son settled very well after a couple of weeks. He often wanted a morning cuddle from the staff with a smile on his face when I dropped him off in the morning. They did lots of fun activities, like making cards, costume party, celebration for national book day and sensory activities. The management team is very responsive. When I asked about the dietary plan and requested more meals with meat/fish, they acted in a few days to increase to 4 days/week with meat/fish. We also like their onsite kitchen so all the food could be prepared freshly for our son :) Their financial manager Julia is very friendly and helpful. She usually replies my email promptly with detailed answers. When my son needed to leave after giving notice, they made some adaptation for our schedule and waived some of the fee. That was very appreciated! We were a bit shocked by the 48hr quarantine policy regardless of the child's illness. That was challenging for us as two full-time working parents, but the manager said that policy will be reviewed in the future. Overall, our experience with Sutherland was great!”

“My daughter had a fantastic experience with Bright Kids in the baby room. The whole team, especially her key person, were brilliant and she learnt so much during her time there. One of the saddest things about moving from the area was leaving nursery!”

“Thank you for all QSE staff and especially Uncle who supported incredibly in my son’s toughest journey through his 11 plus exams. Truly without you this would have not been possible. Uncle is a wonderful teacher and my son thoroughly enjoyed his classes and admired him a lot! My son excelled with success and got in to the school of his first choice out of many offers he had.This success is dedicated to you guys! All thanks to member of staff especially Mrs Mayura and Miss Emily who has been greatest support for us all through our journey. Really appreciate everything you did for us especially our son! I would recommend this place to any kid who are sitting for 11 plus both grammar and independent schools as this is the place with less stress and more success! Many Thanks again xx”

“As a teacher of the school I feel very happy with the way I am supported by the management and the community. Lovely environment.”
