Physical development in London

“This is a brilliant club! My son has been attending for some years now and he really loves it. Coach Patrick and his colleagues are brimming with enthusiasm and expertise which filters down to their students along with loads of fun.”

“My children have always enjoyed going to camp. Very conveniently located in the local gym. A great choice of activities from swimming to bouncy castles. I like the half day option and the option of ordering a lunch if needed.”

“Tom has an amazing skill teaching children (and adults) to skate. He’s friendly, full of experience and loves to pass on his knowledge in a passionate way. Highly recommend him and his skate school. Pretty handy at building garden skate ramps too.”

“Such a wonderful academy. The instructors are really good and they are attentive of everyone, even with a large training group. Everyone is super friendly and the timetable is full, you can essentially go every day of the week if you want to. Definitely recommended”

“Joe is a fantastic wrestling coach with incredible attention to detail. His classes are suitable for both beginners and seasoned practitioners. He is always happy to help with any questions or concerns. Besides all that, Joe is a very friendly, happy person and is a pleasure to be around. You won't find a better coach than Joe!”

“I just completed the 4 week beginner course at Ealing Pole Studio, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! This was my first time trying pole dancing, and I was honestly a bit intimidated at first. However, Alex, our instructor, was absolutely amazing. She was attentive, calm, and incredibly persistent in helping me and the other students master the moves. What stood out the most was how invested she was in our success not just in getting the moves right, but in teaching us the technique behind them. Her focus on building a solid understanding of each move made a huge difference in my progress. I’ve already been surprised by how much I’ve achieved in just four weeks. If you’re considering starting your pole dancing journey, I highly recommend this course. I’m excited to start the improvers class to see what else is possible!”

“It’s such a lovely ballet dance school, professional and fun. My daughter loves going there. Miss India and other teachers( forgot names..) are amazing. They bring so much joy to the class while ensuring the children learning ballet dance. Highly recommend.”

“My 9 years old daughter has had the best few years training with Katie Cox Dance Studio. She started with just ballet but her love of dance grew and now she does tap, lyrical, acro and jazz too! She has flourished in such a nurturing environment and made some amazing friends. She loves her teachers and is always so happy when we are on the way to lessons. The effort that goes into each child to bring the best out of them is amazing and all the students really cheer each other on and celebrate each other’s achievements. Both students, teachers and parents come together to put on amazing events and shows. I can’t wait to see what else Katie Cox Dance Studio can do over the next few years!”

“Top nursery. The staff and in particular, the management are amazing. So patient with the children and my son settled in really quickly. Highly recommend!”

“My daughter has thrived at Playdays since day one. The staff are incredibly caring and attentive, making her feel right at home. The admin team are also fantastic, always helpful and supportive. I'm so grateful for the nurturing environment they've provided.”

“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.”

“We are so happy to have joined the Balham rainbow family! Kirsty, Flavia and all the staff have been so friendly and absolutely amazing with our son and made the settling in days much less anxious for us parents! It's great to see a smile on our son's face when he gets to Rainbow, he's clearly given lots of care and affection. They also organise nice events for kids and for parents. We are feeling very lucky to have found them!!”

“Our son started at First Day Nursery this summer when he was just under a year old. He settled in within a couple of days and absolutely loves it there.The staff are super friendly and engaging, providing daily updates via the app as well as during pick up. They are also invested in our son's development and we are constantly impressed with the new things he has learnt at nursery. Huge thank you to all the staff, especially Kay, Kim and Liberty who have been key contact people for my son.”

“Flying tots is amazing, Sharon and her team are the ideal people one can ask to work with open communication, support with getting the right documents like the DBS, certificates and trainings to nurture holistic chaperones. Loved the help I received with my DBS processing and Most of all, I loved the souvenirs we received, they really inspire you that you are indeed a flying chaperone who will go places.”

“Owls Daycare has been like a second home for Emily since she was 9 months old, and now, as she approaches 4, she still loves every moment there! Emily was one of the first children to attend when Owls opened, and the support she's received over the years has been amazing. As she's simultaneously learning two languages—English as her native language and Portuguese as her heritage language—the team has been incredibly supportive in helping her develop strong communication skills. Their understanding and encouragement have been instrumental in her language growth. The staff are warm, attentive, and truly dedicated to the children’s well-being and development. Emily has flourished in this nurturing environment, not only socially and academically but also in expressing herself confidently in both languages. Parents receive daily updates on their child’s progress during pick-up, along with photos and reports via the Tapestry online platform. I’m so grateful for the love and care Owls Daycare has shown Emily, and I couldn’t have asked for a better place for her early years. A big thank you to Siobhan, James, Kayleigh, Ciara, Giovana, Ciaran and Jane Thank you for being such an important part of her life and learning journey! P.S. The photos are from her very first day at Owls!”

“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”

“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.”

“My sons have attend the nursery one is shy and the other very lively and not so shy! The nursery has been really good in teaching and using creativity. My son is always bring home drawings and creations and loves seeing them at home. He really loved a counting book that nursery made that he brought home. Really helped with his counting. Staff are friendly and responsive to parents questions.”

“Abigail has been exceptional through our pre-marital counseling process, her in-depth knowledge in all aspects really helped our relationship to grow. I highly recommend Abigail”

“I’m truly grateful for everything and can wholeheartedly recommend! The best! Thank you”

“I run my own spiritual 1:1 retreats, and after 6 days I can be left feeling very drained of my spiritual energy. I decided to have a Reiki session from Bernadette to re charge my batteries. I must say this was a beautiful experience. I felt tingles of energy from within, a sense of total relaxation, peace and love. Bernadette also shared some personal information which came through to her on the session which I'm very grateful for. This experience has left me feeling fully energised, and Bernadette is a beautiful soul who has so much to offer others in her sessions.”

“I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Dr. Alessandro regarding my son’s heart condition, and I cannot express how grateful I am for his care and expertise. From the moment our consultation began, he was incredibly attentive, compassionate, and thorough in his explanations. He took the time to listen to all of my concerns and made me feel genuinely heard — something that has been rare throughout our journey. Dr. Alessandro’s knowledge, empathy, and clear communication gave me both clarity and reassurance during a very stressful time. It’s clear he truly cares about his patients and their families, and his professionalism is matched by his kindness. Thank you, Dr. Alessandro, for your time, your help, and most of all, your understanding. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor to support us through this.”

“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 luv this centre sooo much. My LO is in his element when he gets there it’s like his 2nd home. The staff go the extra mile in everything they do for our LO. The staff are amazing and so caring towards our children. Thxs so much Southmead Children’s centre for what you do for our little ones.”

“Absolutely amazing physio! I have seen Praveena repeatedly and she always offers the best quality service! She was able to diagnose my injury where other physios failed to. She is highly knowledgable and qualified. She ensured I got the best treatment suited to what I needed. Best to mention the team are always welcoming and attentive! Always lovely having a chat with Sarah on the front desk!”

“Wonderful staff. Reece was so patient with me to get me where I needed to be. All the staff explained everything super well, and they gave my wife an extra! We were first timers! Will definitely try again!”

“Words cannot fully express our gratitude to St. Panteleimon Nursery. A heartfelt thank you from our entire family for the love and care you've shown to our beloved child (Viaan Gupta). Your warmth and welcoming nature have meant so much to both us as parents and our child. The staff have been incredibly supportive, and our child has loved every moment, taking their first steps towards independence. You were always there whenever we needed help, support, or advice, and always with a smile and kindness. We knew the nursery had an outstanding rating by Ofsted, and now we truly understand why. Our son has learned so much and had a wonderful experience at nursery. A special thank you to Ms. Andri Kyriakidou, Anjal Ahluwalia, Neha Vekariya, Khloe Barton, and Mr. Christos Kyriakidis for all that you've done for my child (Viaan Gupta) ! Thank you! :)”

“The best Nursery ever, my child always coming out with huge smile, the girls are very informative especially Maya Sahi ”

“Great nursery made by the lovely staff - highly recommend”

“My Son has been going to The Young Once since end of November 2024. When I saw him get off the breakfast table and walk by himself to the baby area, it was such a proud moment. He feels happy and at home there. This is the only nursery we have come across where the lovely staff has a big smile on their face at 8:00 am and same smile and enthusiasm at 6:00pm. This was so important to me. Kelly said to me you had the baby 9 months in your belly then a year of maternity and then you have to leave your baby with strangers, this nursery really gets it and gives our little humans all the love, confidence and care we wish for them. My little boy loves this place and when I ask him are you going to play with Carol. He has the biggest smile on his face and Carol is right, he can say her name now. I am so glad I visited this nursery and my little one is going to have amazing 4 years here.”
