London nursery programs for toddlers in London

“Both my son (for 4.5yrs) and daughter (for 2yrs) attended this excellent nursery. The standard of care and teaching is very high. My children used to literally run in to the nursery in the morning which is a strong reflection on the positive and loving environment that has been created. The food is cooked on site and is a varied healthy menu. It really helps because my children at school now eat everything and love fruit/veg. The Management is very friendly and approachable. The Manager (Nirupa) is absolutely lovely and is assisted by her efficient son which creates a warm family environment. Any issues are addressed very promptly with good feedback to the parents. The communication and relationship with the parents is excellent. I thoroughly recommend and positively endorse this nursery.”

“I don’t have enough words to express my gratitude to Little Angels and the staff of the baby room. It was the best choice we could have for our little one to start nursery. Cindy, Bharti, Rebekka, Christina and Makia, were all a delight to have as our baby’s caregivers/teachers. They were caring and loving and made our baby love going to nursery. Besides the amazing stuff, the learning & development plan was very well prepared. We could see all the development our baby made thanks to these people and their patience and hard work. I would blindly recommend this nursery, especially as a safe start for your baby and their transition from home with parents to first time in nursery. Thanks for everything!”

“Sad that my little one is leaving to go to big school, my daughter loved coming here, they taught her so much and is definitely ready for school and have done so well getting her ready for school. Some of the things my daughter has learnt is amazing! The staff work hard, all the staff are so lovely and the manager is so passionate about every child being her little treasure. The difference between other nurseries and this nursery is that Michelle (manager) does not see the nursery as a ‘business’ but a home where she treats all the families and children like her own and is very supportive. Thank you little treasures and to all you special staff who looked after my daughter… we will be back and pop by for visits ❤️”

“My son has been coming here for over a year now and he absolutely loves it. The staff are amazing, he gets up to all sorts of wonderful activities, the place itself is spotlessly clean and full of imaginative and fun things for children to get on with. He has nutritious meals (and they succeed in getting him to eat more vegetables than I can!) and he goes off in the mornings smiling and happy to be spending the day here. When I moved to Walton I viewed a few nurseries but Monkey Puzzle was by far the best I saw. An outstanding place - Annoo and Aary, thank you for being the best nursery provider for my son!”

“My little one has attended Little Green Forest Nursery since she was 16 months and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. It is visible to parents how much they care about children, the continuos progress & learning and the support the team offers if any concerns arise. My daughter goes in every day with a smile and that’s the best reassurance you can for ask for as a parent. The whole team is professional, approachable and caring. Thanks for doing such a great job!”

“Blossoms Years is a very special place we are lucky to be part of. I honestly can’t recommend them enough. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and approachable and partner so well with the parents. The forest school facilities at Blossoms are outstanding and most importantly are used for a large part of the day whatever the weather. They also provide many other extracurricular activities including music and PE lessons which varies the children’s exposure and learning. I can not thank the staff enough for all that they do for the children. They go above and beyond in so many ways and you can tell they love their job and the children and only ever want the best. I can’t thank Blossoms enough for installing a sense of fun, learning and starting my two children’s education in such a positive way. Instilling these foundations is a credit to the staff and one I am truly thankful for.”

“Our two sons are currently attending Playdays, in the baby room and in the preschool room. We are extremely happy with the nursery. The staff is very kind and caring and most of them have been around for many years which is great as a lot of nurseries nearby have a high staff turnover. The nursery is very well managed by Miss Kerry and everything runs smoothly. The children have the opportunity to do lots of activities (baby yoga, dance, french, swimming...) as well as regular trips to the park. We would 100% recommend this nursery to parents.”

“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!”

“Two of my children have attended this nursery and both absolutely loved their experiences. Both developed strong bonds with the staff and my daughter currently attending just adores them and they have been a brilliant support in her care and development since she was 9 months old. Now that they have moved to a new premises the setting itself cannot be faulted, they have beautiful classrooms and an outside space that the children can run around and play which was the only downside with the old building.”

“Highly recommend nursery. Great communication, very friendly staff. The update on what my daughter does on the app is very helpful and reassuring. Photo updates on activities my daughter is always great to see.”

“I was very nervous about sending my son to nursery, but from the moment he started at Monkey Puzzle, I’ve seen him thrive in so many ways. The team’s care and attention have truly put my mind at ease. Another thing that reassures me is seeing the owner around frequently. It’s clear she is personally involved in the day-to-day life of the nursery, checking in with the children and staff, and making sure everything runs smoothly. Knowing that she is so present gives me confidence that my son is in a truly caring and well-managed environment. One of the things I love most is the daily photo updates – it’s wonderful to see what he’s been up to throughout the day and the little moments that make me smile. The meals prepared by their on-site chef are not only delicious but also healthy, giving me confidence that he’s getting the best nutrition while at nursery. I also really appreciate how the nursery celebrates and explores different cultures, helping children learn about the world in a fun and inclusive way. It’s clear that every child’s development and happiness is a priority here. Thank you to Monkey Puzzle for taking such care of my heart and helping my son grow in such a happy, nurturing environment.”

“I cannot express enough how amazing our experience has been at this nursery! It has been a truly wonderful place for my child, who has not only learned so much but has also had an incredible amount of fun. The staff is caring, attentive, and highly professional, creating a warm and welcoming environment that made my child feel safe and happy every day. My little one always came home with a big smile, excited to share stories about the activities and friends at the nursery. It’s clear that the team puts a lot of thought and effort into making the experience enjoyable and enriching for the children. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing and joyful place for their child. Thank you for making this such a positive and memorable experience for us!”

“Les Petites Etoiles has become an extension of our family. We absolutely love this nursery, the caretakers and all the staff. It's clear they are very invested in our children, and my children are always so happy to go to nursery every day which is all we can ask for. They took my daughter in at 6 months, and they saw her grow into a thriving toddler and have cared for her along every step of the way. They also have a really great outdoor space and are outside rain or shine, which is important for us! And I can't speak more highly of their food. My children eat better at nursery than at home! I couldn't recommend LPE more highly, any child who is lucky enough to go here will have a wonderful experience.”

“Lovely nursery not too close to our house but still happy to wake up early and take my toddler for her happiness. I found the staff very helpful and kind to us. My daughter wakes up eveeyday with full energy, ready to kick off the day.”

“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.”

“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”

“Really happy with the way my daighter Isabelle developed in all aspects. She made friends, she loves her teachers. The reception and management is also great, responsive and they don t put money first but the child wellbeing. Adapting easily to child needs and always provide a daily report. Very transparent and professional. Food is also great, many healthy and diverse choices, also i love the fact there are many events, we as parents take part too ( stay and play, macmillan breakfast etc) . Thank you team”

“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.”

“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!”

“My son started attending the nursery when he turned 2. He had a speech delay and struggled with social play. It only took a month for me to see how much of an astounding effect Ihsan had on my son. He started talking more, playing with other kids, listening to instructions etc and a major part of this development was the staff at Ihsan nursery. They also supported him with the local SENCO and support plan meetings with me and his key carer. This made me feel so assured that the areas where my son needs assistance in developing would be focused on and worked on during his time at nursery. It wasn’t just as if I was leaving my son with babysitters but I was taking him to a nursery that actually considers and really cares about helping children develop essential skills and qualities that will help them for the rest of their lives. I also used to take my twin daughters to the stay and play from when they were around 1 till they were ready to join the nursery. They absolutely loved it. I would go almost everyday and they had different themed activities, friendly staff and a clear routine (play, clean up, circle time) which really helped my daughters once they started nursery at Ihsan. My kids love it at Ihsan and I’m so proud that they are part of the Ihsan family.”

“My daughter loves going to this nursery. They always welcome her with the biggest smile and make her feel special every time. My daughter has learnt so much since being there for the last year or so. She has become more confident and her breath of vocabulary has most definitely widened because of their teaching. When she comes home she is always repeating songs they sing during circle time. I would highly recommend this nursery as not only do they support the child to progress but also give really good advice to parents regarding potty training etc. Whenever I pick my daughter up I love how nicely the children play together and enjoys playing with her friends.”

“My daughter started nursery last week, for the two days she has been there, she enjoyed. She tells me alot of good things that's she's learnt. I am glad she's loving it Thanks for your support”

“We feel incredibly blessed to have found The Gower School - Montessori Nursery! From day one, the staff has been nothing short of amazing. All of the teachers are true professionals — caring, kind and enthusiastic — with a genuine passion for teaching (not only children but their parents as well. We found their lectures and courses very useful). Core day activities, music, ballet, sports, forest school, French - everything is excellent. They go above and beyond to ensure that each child is not only happy and comfortable but also continuously progressing. We are grateful for how supportive they’ve been during the sometimes difficult settling-in process with our younger daughter, always providing patience and understanding. It truly feels like they are part of our family. We're especially grateful for the support the staff provided in helping our older daughter prepare for her 4+ assessments. Thanks, in large part, to their dedication and expertise, she was accepted into the top selective schools in North London. A huge “thank you” to everyone at the nursery for taking such wonderful care of our precious children! I firmly believe this is the best nursery in London.”

“The most wonderful nursery! Our little boy has developed and learnt so much there. He absolutely loves going to nursery. They love and care for the children so well. He blows them kisses goodbye at pick up. I completely trust them and appreciate all their hard work. I could go on and on. The main thing I’ll say is that I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kindred. Very professional, warm and friendly, excellent care. You won’t regret sending your children to them. We love it there and think all the staff are fantastic. Thank you!”

“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.”

“Kingswood Day Nursery is absolutely amazing. From the moment we joined, the staff have been warm, welcoming, and incredibly caring. You can feel how much love and dedication they pour into everything they do. My toddler has grown in confidence, development and happiness since starting there, and it is such a joy to see. They have been spectacular with my son—so patient, nurturing, and full of energy. They really understand how to support him through these important early stages, from encouraging his speech and social skills to helping him feel secure and confident in his daily routine. He’s always excited to go in and comes home with the biggest smile, which says it all. The nursery creates a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where every child is treated with kindness and respect. The staff truly take the time to get to know each child and support them in the best way possible. It is clear they are passionate about what they do, and it makes such a difference. I honestly could not ask for a better place for my little one. Kingswood is a place full of heart. Thank you to all the teachers and the management for helping my lil boy grow”

“My husband and I have both been thrilled with the care provided by the nursery to both our sons since we enrolled our eldest in June 2021. The care provided by the setting is, in our opinion, outstanding. They feel at home in the nursery and that is all down to the love, care and engagement provided by the staff to the children, which is abundant. When discussing the boys with any member of staff, it is evidently clear they know our children well - they know their likes and dislikes, they embrace their personalities and they provide a learning environment in which their individuality can flourish. The nursery achieves a perfect balance between allowing the children to thrive in a play-led, loving environment whilst also identifying how they can nurture their learning in a way that feels fun and exciting to the children. Thank you so much Fatemah for taking such amazing care of our boys!”

“My daughter has been at The Pickford since she was 9 months old and I honestly couldn’t recommend it enough! All of the staff have been fantastic and my daughter loves going to nursery. They’ve helped my husband and I as first time parents to understand the different milestones, set realistic goals and handle dealing with tantrums! The nursery has such a wonderful family feel to it and has helped my daughter gain skills, confidence and make fantastic friends (with the other children and staff!). A great, welcoming environment and I am so happy and comfortable sending my child in everyday. We could not recommend enough!!”

“My 3-year-old son attends this nursery, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! All the teaching assistants and support staff are amazing—kind, patient, and truly dedicated to the children’s well-being. The environment is warm and nurturing. He always looks forward to going to nursery, which speaks volumes about the care and effort the staff put in. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe and engaging place for their child’s early education!”
