The 30 Best Kids in London

“I buy all my baby gifts from here! Amazing quality, friendly staff, and very good pricing. They last so long and are super durable for baby’s and toddlers!”

“Stella was amazing! We asked her to perform again this year because she was fantastic last year as well. We would love to invite her again next year! ✨”

“OMG!! We had the best Lego themed party for 7 years old. Luke deserves more than 5 stars… excellent communication, arrived early,very flexible, and super energetic. The kids were tired (in a good way) in the first hour with lots of active games outside, but also enjoyed creating Lego objects and sharing their ideas to friends. No wonder why Lucas gets outstanding feedbacks!! I would choose Brilliant birthdays again, their responses were very friendly and prompt. Thank you so much”

“Brilliant show once again! The team was totally on point – super organised from start to finish. The kids’ entertainment was really engaging and kept them happy the whole time, which meant we barely had to do a thing. Such an easy, stress-free party to host – highly recommend!”

“We have used the Kids Entertainers Network for the past two years for party entertainers for our children's parties. They are super efficient and straightforward to book with. The entertainers have been wonderful and really made the parties very special. Nikky the entertainer was wonderful with all the children and kept them laughing and captivated to the end - we had children of between 2 and 7 at the party and she dealt so well with the age ranges. There was something for everyone including the grown ups who got involved! Thank you.”

“We hired Kes for facepainting at my daughter's 3rd birthday party. She was simply brilliant. The kids were over the moon with it and so were the parents, as for many, it was their first experience of it. Kes is an extremely talented artist and facepainter. I will have no hesitation in recommending her to friends and family. Thank you for being one of the highlights of the party!”

“I would highly recommend Lucy! I first saw her at a 4th birthday party as a unicorn (my daughter LOVED it) so I quickly got her number and asked her to entertain 25 kids aged 3-4 for my daughters 4th superhero birthday party. From her spider girl costume, to the balloon modelling, brilliant games, glitter tattoos and dancing, Lucy was a huge hit with all the kids (and parent alike).”

“Absolutely fantastic experience! I was very impressed with our visit to the kids’ dentist. My son loved it from the moment we walked in, the whole place is so colourful, interactive, and perfectly designed for children. Dr. Sath was amazing! So fun, patient, and kind and he made my little boy feel completely at ease. My son Noah actually can’t wait to go back for his next treatment, which says it all! To top it off, he even got a prize at the end and was over the moon. I highly recommend this dental practice for anyone looking for a very positive and very child-friendly experience!”

“Drama in the Woods is a fantastic way for children to spend a week outdoors blowing away the cobwebs, making friends and being creative. The instructors are the perfect mix of professional, caring and fun. My kids love it.”

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

“From beginners to elite athletes WLTF provides a holistic approach that is both inclusive and unique. Excellent facilities and a dedication to high quality training, professionalism and personal development”

“My 3 year old son looks forward to his Playball class each week. The structured lessons have helped to develop his listening and turn taking skills. I have seen huge improvements in his throwing, catching, jumping and running skills. Coach Grant is wonderful! He is so patient with the children. I would highly recommend this class to any 3-4 year olds.”

“I joined Jig and a swig in January and it’s the best thing I’ve done since moving to London. Jessie creates such a fun, open and welcoming environment from the first minute. She is a brilliant teacher and does this all while keeping the classes organised and running smoothly, seemingly effortlessly! The community is fantastic, full of like-minded people who also want to try something new and make friends along the way, made easier by the fact that you see them every week. There are extra events being run all of the time and so many opportunities to get involved if the weekly class isn’t enough:)”

“Love simply kids for wraparound care and holiday clubs. The team behind this business truly care for your children and go above and beyond. They are a special bunch.”

“Have been taking my 6 year old daughter for 3:1 swimming lessons with Brian at Swimming Class UK since she was 3 years. When she started she was afraid of getting her face wet. Now she is a confident and strong swimmer. She loves the lessons and it's a joy watching her learn and grow.”

“Beautiful and friendly shop. The clothes were beautiful and well made, but I walked out with three gorgeous, carefully curated, and unique children’s books. Would definitely shop here again!”

“I would highly recommend Hair by Dar to anyone looking to transform their hair - whether you are looking for a stunning everyday style which is easy to manage or that wow factor cut and style - look no further than the phenomenal Dar. My first visit today and was totally blown away - he takes such care and concentration to create the best cut bespoke to you and he spent considerable time advising me how to treat my coloured hair to replace moisture and prevent further heat damage. He let me try products and also offered amazing hospitality. A stone throw away from the tube station so very accessible and easy to visit. I cant wait to go back - thank you Dar I’m so glad our paths crossed. Jo-Ann x”

“The best Barber in Clapham , Amazing Service from Hunar, and the barbershop is spotless. 100% recommended . I will be back for sure.”

“Our 7 year old daughter attended the British Alevi Federation’s summer SEN holiday camp and had such a positive experience. She was regulated and calm throughout, and we could see how happy and settled she felt in the environment. Camps like this are so rare, and in the past it has been a real struggle to find anything inclusive and supportive. As parents, it truly felt like a Godsend! We are so grateful to the team for organising it and for the care and thought that went into it. We will be booking for the October half term and truly hope this provision will always be available for SEN children. Heartfelt thanks for making such a difference.”

“I joined the London Wing Chun Academy last year as a complete novice and I'm so happy I did. All the instructors are highly skilled, really friendly and always willing to help. Training there has made a huge improvement to my fitness and confidence levels, as well as having made many friends for life. Our Sifu, Dr Mark Phillips is an extremely knowledgeable, experienced instructor and an inspirational man. I feel privileged to be one of his students. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to learn Wing Chun. You will not be disappointed.”

“We are so pleased with our daughter’s growth and confidence in her ballet classes! She is constantly talking about ballet and says ‘my ballet school’ anytime we walk past. She’s almost 2.5 years old and I know her classes will support her confidence in everything she does. Ms Amy is an amazing teacher and so supportive. Thank you!”

“I had a fantastic experience at Happy Kids Dental! I came in for a hygiene appointment and was genuinely impressed with the care and professionalism of the staff. The hygienist was incredibly gentle, patient, and thorough, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. The clinic itself is bright, clean, and welcoming—perfect for kids but just as comfortable for parents. Everyone was friendly and took the time to explain things clearly, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Happy Kids Dental to anyone looking for top-quality dental care in a warm, kid-friendly environment!”

“We had an appointment with Dr Dania and her assistant Diana (coordinated by Sara). Sara had also previously coordinated 3-4 visits for us just to explore/play in the clinic so my son could get used to it. He is extremely anxious in clinical settings and had not previously been able to have a proper dental check (or even walk into a treatment room). Dr Dania is clearly a pro - she was very patient and knew exactly how to run the appointment to gently encourage my son into the treatment room, and eventually the chair. He even let her check his teeth! We were shocked. So impressed with Dr Dania and the team, and beyond happy they’ve helped my son make the progress he has. Thank you!”

“Other Kids is a beautifully curated and designed local business. They are extremely knowledgeable, and provide expert advice on sizing / fit / style. The selection of shoes / clothes and other bits (books / puzzles / seasonal bits - eg bucket / spade etc) is excellent given that it is not a huge shop! It’s an absolute go to for us for school shoes and sandals - we’re extremely lucky to have a unique shop like this in Leigh! Highly recommended to anyone!”

“Simply the BEST reusable masks you will find anywhere in the world!! They are so comfortable, stylish and easy to wash/dry! I have 3 of varying colours to accord with different outfit choices. Definitely helps me feel a little more confident wearing a stylish mask rather than the usual blue surgical ones. Makes the ‘pandemic life’ seem a bit more normal at least. Great shop by the way. I can’t wait to have children of my own to kit out in these beautiful outfits one day ❤️”

“Great customer service and great selection of clothes. Highly recommend ✨”

“Excellent service, great products, and shop assistant was very helpful too! Bought a lot of things from yummy kids including a buggy, cots, dressers, toys and baby gifts. Any item which didn't arrive or arrived broken shop assistant made sure it was immediately reordered and arrived next day. Will definitely be using again!!”

“I am very happy to give Dental Smiles in Chalton Street a 5 star review. I have been using the hygienist service there for several years and have always felt that the care and attention that I have received has been excellent. On my last visit I saw Amanda, who I can say was particularly attentive and reassuring. My teeth were very noticeably cleaner as a result of my visit.”

“I love this place and so does my 7 year old daughter. The waiting room isn’t boring with lots of entertainment for the kids while we wait. She loved that she got to watch her fave show on YouTube while waiting. The Dentists are super professional and are clearly experienced at dealing with kids. We went in as an emergency as my daughter had swollen and very painful gums. My daughter gets anxious easily and has very low pain tolerance, but the team handled her with care and empathy and made her feel comfortable in about 2mins flat! Such a high level of service. I don’t think I could go anywhere else now. It’s worth the money paid.”

“Great haircut and experience with Maddie!! My 2.5 yr old son enjoyed his time with no fuss at all! And Maddie is very welcoming too”
