Pre school learning environment in London

“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 ❤️”

“Our daughter had a lovely experience at Katey’s House whilst we lived in Kingston. We felt that the staff cared deeply about our daughter there. Karolina’s warmth, responsiveness and professionalism was so palpable. We look forward to watch from afar to see what she continues to build.”

“We had visited quite a few nurseries for my 18-month old and and were thrilled to find Crafty Wizards preschool which unusually for a preschool takes from 18-months. We love the format that all ages are mixed together promoting peer learning and the setting is intimate and personal. The staff are wonderful and really care about the kids. There are two gardens, one of which is a bit like a small forest school with a mud kitchen, which our little one loves. Since day 1 he’s been so happy to be there with zero separation anxiety. Highly recommend to other parents who want something different to the usual nursery format.”

“Our daughter started attending just before her third birthday, and the care she received has been exceptional. The staff are not only kind and caring but also genuinely invested in each child’s development. They provided specific feedback tailored to our daughter, which made us feel that she was truly known and valued. I can’t express how much this nursery feels like a second home for her. The staff’s warmth, care, and attention have made all the difference. They treat her like family, and it shows in her happiness every day. We’re grateful to have found such a nurturing and loving nursery.”

“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.”

“My son loves going to nursery now. He excitedly runs to get to press the doorbell to go in and comes out smiling at pick up. It wasn't an easy start for him as he hadn't been away from me apart from with a couple of other family members before. Staff were accommodating and mindful of his needs and discussed with me how to help him settle and worked to find a strategy that made him feel nursery was a safe space. They were also very kind when I had my own little wobble as I was feeling worried about the whole situation. I love that new activities are set up each day. Pictures of these and of what the kids are up to are posted on the private parents facebook group a couple times a day. It means we can show my son and chat about his day and what is going on at nursery. It helps build his speech, but also allows us to learn more about who is important to him at nursery and what he enjoys even though he isn't yet able to express it fully in words. My son enjoys being outside. With the nursery's vast garden and free flow between in and outdoors most of the time, he clearly makes the most of it. Good wipe down coat advisable.”

“Our son has been at Kateys for 9 months now and we couldn't be happier. The staff are so welcoming and loving towards the children. The range of activities, play and learning they do is outstanding. Each day useful feedback is given and periodically more thorough feedback in the form of a learning journal and parents evenings. I'm always astonished by the range and depth of topics covered. The setting is excellent too with lots of outdoor space and nearby points of interest. Highly recommend.”

“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!”

“We have sent our daughter (3yo) to this nursery for over a year now. She (and we) love it there. The staff are great (lead admirably by Super Fae) and the kids are all so happy. We feel really lucky to have found somewhere local that takes such good care of the children.”

“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”

“Our daughter has had the best 2 years at Willows Hammersmith and we will have the fondest of memories from her time there. The staff have been tremendous throughout and there is a great atmosphere around the nursery. Blenda and her team do a fantastic job and we wish them all the very best for the future, thank you!”

“The Nursery is very well equipped and clean. The Head Teacher and staff are excellent. Very caring and understanding each child’s needs. Had lots of fun on Grandparents Day. Would recommend it to friends and family.”

“Great nursery! The staff are always caring and lovely and the facilities are great! They are working really closely with my daughter to speed up her language and emotional development and I couldn't be more happy of the results! She is now really chatty and much more confident! Absolutely recommended!”

“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!”

Teachers have a lot of activities for kids to do, so little ones will not be bored and will learn alot! I Truly Highly recomending this place for all the families, you will not regret!”

“Little Learners is a lovely place for children to learn and spend quality time in a nursery environment. The staff are really friendly and approachable and very hardworking. I would recommend this nursery to anyone wanting to place their children. The timings are flexible and the location is convenient, close to Harrow Town centre.”

“This outstanding ranked school has been there for several decades and the teaching staffs are caring and responsible.”

“We have been part of the Fountain family for 5 years. It’s a very nurturing and loving environment- the teachers are excellent & can see how much they care about each child. With the recent challenges faced due to Covid-19, the nursery has responded extremely well in getting back up and running with the safety measures put in place. We feel reassured with the checks and practices implemented. Well done Fountain team!”

“Our eldest attended here for one year. It is an excellent pre-school wonderfully located in the middle of West Harrow Park serving the West Harrow community and beyond.”

“Best Nursery ever, my child loved it there. Staff is amazing, they take care of children like they were their own. My daughter loves there and I can see how she was improving with hers behaviour, speech, manners. Staff is so helpfull and kind. Love every single of them and am so great full to them. I suggest anyone and everyone this amazing nursery, you will not regret and main thing our child will be happy and safe there.”

“My son attended this preschool since he was 3 year old until school age. I can't describe in my words how greatful I am to all the staff for what they have done for my son. They were caring, understanding and loving. My son tried 2 nurseries before and wouldn't settle in, so I asked the predchool manager for longer settling in period. They understood and allowed my son to take his time. They encouraged him to develop at his own pace, provided interesting resources and activities ans were there for him when he needed help. The preschool is substantially staffed. My son made his first friendships here. He continues seeing his preschool friends at church. It's nice to be part of the community. The preschool teachers are well experienced in special needs and have understanding, and can provide support.”

“Noahs Ark is a such a hidden gem of a nursery and we are lucky enough to have it on our doorstep. All my three children have settled in immediately and loved it here, the kindness and flexibility shown by the teachers make this a very unique setting. The staff really care and it feels like home from home. The kids regularly go out to the forest and play outside and the space inside is huge so they have lots of space to run about and let off steam. Taira and Aisha are so kind, fun and relaxed and do really imaginative and creative things with the kids - best nursery/pre-school!”

“Butterflies is an amazing pre-school. My daughter started just after turning 3 and she’s had the most wonderful year there. From the very beginning, the staff have been incredibly warm and caring. She settled in so quickly and has looked forward to going on her days. The environment is nurturing, fun and full of thoughtful activities that have really helped her grow in confidence and independence. I honestly only wish I had sent her sooner. Thank you so much to the entire Butterflies team for giving her such a happy and enriching start to life.”

“Had the most wonderful experience at this Pre-School. The teachers and very kind and friendly, my daughter loves them! They made the transition very easy.”

“I would say the best pre school in Penge, the teachers and the management team are so polite, well behaved and responsible. One of my sons was graduated last year and then enrolled my second child this year.”

“My son has attended bell lane for 2 years and honestly words cannot express how grateful I am to all of the staff there. Absolute angels on earth, my son's progression has been amazing.”
