Review of Ellingham House Day Nursery

All the staff are so friendly and helpful and my daughter loves going to see her friends. She has learnt so much and I'm very grateful to the staff! The only thing my daughter is fussy with is food, but the staff always try to encourage her to try things.

Review of Footsteps Binley Nursery & Pre-School

My niece and nephew came here over the last 8 years so now my little one does too. To see familiar faces who recognise us as a family but also are still passionate about being so warm to my child makes dropping him off that much easier in the mornings. I don't think this nursery gets the recognition it deserves. It's so good in so many ways.

Review of Footsteps Nursery Fazeley

My LO is at this nursery and they have settled in amazingly. The nursery is beautiful, there is large outdoor play areas, used daily, and a wonderful forest school with quails! The inside rooms are clean, well furnished with plentiful toys that quite honestly I'm jealous of! There are options of extracurricular activities including music and more recently animals! Which I know my LO will love. As someone who has a background in teaching and awareness of the development of children in the early years they do a fantastic job here. My LO has come on leaps and bounds, I get daily updates and an in depth overview of the day on pick up. As a first time mom, I was extremely nervous about leaving my LO at nursery but the staff are fantastic. They genuinely care for the children and it is not just a job to them. They are knowledgeable and have really built a strong bond with my LO who smiles and waves when they sees them. I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

Review of Footsteps Nursery Fazeley

A lovely environment with caring and supportive staff. Lots of engaging activities and opportunities my child has the chance to enjoy. Communication with key worker and wider staff has always been prompt and thorough. The app is also a great feature and I am able to check in to see vital information during my working day. I can clearly see the positive progress in my child's development as the months go on. Glad to have found this nursery when I did.

Review of CherryWood Nursery

From day one of our child attending Cherrywood nursery we have been so happy with the care, communication and approach of the nursery. The activities are so varied and never fail to amaze me. Outdoor space is brilliant and they go out whatever the weather. They learn so much, the development every week is amazing. All the staff have been lovely and brilliant to deal with. So so happy we chose this nursery.

Review of Footsteps Binley Nursery & Pre-School

Footsteps is a wonderful place for children to learn and play! When my son first started at the nursery, he was 2.5 years old and didn't speak any English. On his very first day, it was really hard for him to be away from us, but Jamie was absolutely amazing-she held him lovingly and did everything she could to calm him down. Although he didn't speak English at the beginning, he is now speaking fluently, and all credit goes to the wonderful teachers at Footsteps. He has learned to try new foods, share with other children, and expand his vocabulary. Every day was filled with new, exciting activities that were both fun and educational. He was even fully toilet trained within just a week! He is now completely ready for big school, and that is all thanks to the hard work and dedication of his teachers. I truly appreciate all the effort you put into teaching our children. I will definitely be sending my second child to this nursery as well. Thank you so much!

An amazing nursery with excellent staff. They all really care for and about my daughter which is evident on every drop off and pick up. My daughter has grown so much and has learnt alot under the supervision of the team. She has made many friends and has learnt how to socialise well with her peers. Would highly recommend to all families in the area.

Review of The Kentish Town Day Nursery & Pre-School

An Amazing Nursery Team We couldn't be happier with our son's experience at nursery. He absolutely loves going to preschool, and it's wonderful to see how happy, confident, and excited he is each day. The staff are truly amazing and create such a warm, caring, and welcoming environment for all the children. Lisa, the manager, has built a fantastic team, and it really shows in the love and dedication they give to the children every day. A special mention has to go to Marie, the chef, who is one of my son's absolute favourites! She is such a lovely, caring person, and he always speaks so fondly of her. It's clear that she goes above and beyond, not only with the wonderful meals she prepares but also in the kindness and warmth she shows the children. We are so grateful to the entire team for making nursery such a happy and special place for our son. He genuinely loves being there, and that means the world to us as parents. Thank you, Lisa, Marie, and the whole team, for everything.

Review of Footsteps Binley Nursery & Pre-School

Since starting nursery in May 2024, our daughter has made amazing progress in her confidence, communication and independence. We are so pleased with how much she has developed and how happy she is attending. She has had two operations since joining, and the support from staff has been exceptional. Following her most recent operation in January 2026, she attended with a bandage and only had the use of one hand. The team ensured appropriate risk assessments were in place while still giving her the same opportunities as every other child. Their care and encouragement meant she continued to thrive during this time. Since moving to Jungle Room, she has built a lovely relationship with her key worker, Salma, who knows her well and understands her likes and dislikes. Salma always takes the time to give a personal update at pick-up, which is greatly appreciated. We are so grateful to the whole team for creating such a caring, inclusive and supportive environment. Highly recommend!

Review of Footsteps Binley Nursery & Pre-School

Our daughter loves this nursery and has a strong bond with her keyperson and all staff in the room. She comes home telling stories of all the fun and activities she's had and we go through all the photos that have been sent in the day. Her keyperson even redoes her hair into cute little hair styles. She feels safe and I get messages from the room and can easily contact them. I haven't had any security concerns yet. Parents make sure to close the door behind them and not let anybody else through. Nursery manager is always very easy to contact and gets back to us quickly. Would happily recommend.

Review of Freshfields Nursery School

Starting nursery is a massive milestone for everyone in the family. I love the outdoor space at Freshfields and that my daughter gets to spend so much time outside. The staff are all friendly and caring. I feel well informed, confident and comfortable that my daughter is well cared for while I am at work.

Review of Drayton House Day Nursery & Pre-School

My daughter has just finished 2 years at Drayton House as she is starting school in September. She has thoroughly enjoyed her time in both the kindergarten and the preschool and we will all miss her lovely teachers and all the staff. It has been such a warm and welcoming environment for her and I cannot speak highly enough of the care and attention she has been shown. A huge thank you to Julie and all of the staff - we cannot thank you enough!

Review of Drayton House Day Nursery & Pre-School

Drayton house has been fantastic at accommodating my two boys. The staff team are wonderful, polite and truely care for all the children and their development. My eldest is sad to be leaving to go to school and will always remember his time there. He is leaving with a wonderful start to his education! My youngest is in the same pathway thanks to the school structure and early years activities provided. As busy working parents its great to know our children are in the best care and safe. Draytons communication is fantastic with the famly app being very useful!

Review of Ellingham House Day Nursery

My boys settled really well at Ellingham despite going early and put me at ease from the get go. I didn't realise but this actually started from the moment they were registered - they were always available for questions and no question was silly, nor was I made to feel a nuisance. There is so much to do at Ellingham and that's what I love, the boys get to run all day. They home with new words, telling me about the sheep they have and they create something new everyday! The staff are incredible, they truly get to know not just the children, but the parents as well. They are loved like their own children.The care and attention to detail is incredible. Their knowledge and care around allergies has been amazing with one of my boys and he is never without, there is always another option. He is always included and nothing is ever too much trouble. I couldn't recommend Ellingham enough and I wouldn't send my children anywhere else - we drive 20 minutes and past several other nurseries!

Review of CherryWood Nursery

Our son has been in Cherrywood for the last three years. Picking a nursery was hard but having lived through the last three years I don't think we could have asked for a more caring, loving and nurturing environment for to be in. A special thanks to Abby, Ella and Molly for the amazing pre-school environment they have created in the last 12 months. I'll be incredibly sad when we leave Cherrywood in a few weeks, but I know that my son is heading to school in the best possible place because of the team at nursery. Massive thanks

We have been extremely happy with our experience at CherryTown Nursery. From the beginning, we have felt that our daughter is truly cared for, supported and content. The staff are always very friendly and approachable. We would be happy to recommend CherryTown to other parents. Our daughter is set to leave in August and start her new adventure at school, we just want to say thank you CherryTown you have played a huge part in her earliest years.

Review of Freshfields Nursery School

My daughter has loved her time at Freshfields, she has learnt so much and is more than ready to start school. The staff are all so friendly and helpful, the food is great and there are even farm animals on site. The only downside is the carpark gets very busy and its a single lane track in and out.

Review of The New Barnet Day Nursery & Pre-School

When choosing a nursery for my daughter, I looked absolutely everywhere. I was so nervous about making the right decision and spent countless nights deep-diving into nurseries and worrying that wherever I chose wouldn't be right for her. Since my daughter started, they have been amazing. They have treated her as if she were their own and keep me updated on everything she does throughout the day, which gives me so much reassurance. She cried for the first few days while settling in, but the staff were so supportive and patient. Now, I get nothing but laughs and smiles whenever we pull up outside. She absolutely loves it. The staff are always friendly and genuinely caring. It's a fantastic learning environment. I couldn't be happier with the care, love and happiness they give her every day. Knowing she is so happy, loved and well cared for makes leaving her at nursery so much easier. Little Garden has become such a special part of her little world, and I'm incredibly grateful.

Review of Freshfields Nursery School

Absolutely wonderful experience with Freshfields Nursery. From the very top to each of the practitioners looking after the children, the warmth, care and understanding is outstanding. We really had a second child which can cause some disruption both to the normal routine and how it affects our first child. Every member of staff have been so patient and accommodating, listening to any changes to routine (earlier starts, later pickups, flexible on daytime sleeping etc), providing feedback during the day as to how our child is and making my wife and I feel completely at ease with everything. It has made, what could be a very stressful time, very easy. All whilst they have taken great care with our boy, ensuring that he is happy and well stimulated with a great variety of activities (painting, cooking, singing, reading stories, playing). I wholeheartedly recommend Freshfields Nursery and both my wife and I, plus our child most importantly, are so very happy with everything. Thank you !

Review of Freshfields Nursery School

Both my son and daughter attend Freshfields nursery. My son will be leaving to go to school soon and has attended since he was 9 months old there. I can not fault the care both my children receive. There is a wide range of opportunities and learning which is fantastic. In the time we have been there we have visits to the onsite farm, learning to care for the animals, Forest school and French just to name a few! The staff and management are super nurturing and supportive to the children but also to the whole family. I always sense a happy, friendly and safe environment which is also very clean! I'm so glad that we chose Freshfields for our children.

Review of Just Imagine Day Nursery - Wickford London Road

We couldn't be happier with the nursery. Our daughter absolutely loves going in and is always so happy to see the staff. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and the team are incredibly helpful, caring and approachable. Communication is also excellent. They always keep us informed at the end of the day, and throughout the day if she has had an accident or isn't feeling well, which gives us great peace of mind. We would highly recommend the nursery to any parent looking for a warm, caring and supportive environment for their child. We couldn't ask for a better nursery!

Review of Footsteps Nursery Fazeley

Incredible nursery with amazing staff that go above and beyond & truely care about the children! I have been with the nursery for two years now and my second child with allergies started four months ago. I am extremely happy that we chose this nursery. Every single staff member shows they care for both my children, you can tell it's not just a job for them and I feel so safe leaving my children here. Even staff who are not working directly in the room with my children know their names and always say hello. The atmosphere is always very friendly and welcoming, nothings ever any trouble and have assisted my eldest in potty training and my youngest with walking and talking. With my second child having allergies I was extremely worried however every member of staff have been extremely professional and looked after his extra needs perfectly. The management are incredible, very helpful and quick to act if any problems & go above and beyond to accommodate! 100% recommend this nursery!

Review of Manor Farm Day Nursery

We chose this nursery because we believe it offers the best quality in the area. When our child was still very small and just beginning to walk, we were naturally a bit anxious. The staff reassured us that everything would be fine. We like that the carers pay close attention to the children, and it's useful to receive photos and updates about daily activities. We can see when our child logs in and out, when nappies are changed, and when they have eaten. Overall though, we are happy with the place.

Review of The Little School Daycare

Based on our experience, this nursery provides everything a child needs to develop, grow, and prepare for Reception at school. One of its greatest strengths is the warm and nurturing environment, which helps children feel safe and at home from the very beginning. The nursery offers a wide range of engaging activities that encourage learning, support overall development, and help children build confidence. Children also have the opportunity to interact with others in their age group, develop important social skills, and become familiar with a school-like environment. This makes the transition to Reception much smoother and helps them feel well prepared for the next stage of their education.

Review of Footsteps Nursery Fazeley

I was always very apprehensive when it came to picking a nursery for my daughter to attend due to all of the horror stories you hear as a parent but after my daughter being at Footsteps for over 9 months now I can wholeheartedly say I could not have picked a better nursery for her go to. The staff are extremely friendly and make such an effort to develop relationships with the children in attendance (even if they are in a different room they still say hello and know their names!), they fill the days with so many stimulating and fun activities along with having great facilities and a wide variety of meals everyday for the babies to eat. Absolutely no faults or concerns when it comes to this nursery. I'm very happy that my daughter attends here :)

Review of Tiptree Day Nursery & Pre-School

The nursery helped my baby settle in so well when he started at 10 months old, even though he initially found it difficult. The staff have been friendly, caring and supportive. They make the children and parents feel so welcome. They provide detailed and regular updates on his progress. They do so many different activities, and he has experienced so many different foods. I honestly couldn't fault the nursery. I feel he is really cared for. I'm so glad I chose this nursery for him and would highly recommend it. The staff really do make it what it is.

We're really pleased we chose this nursery and would happily recommend it to other parents.

Review of Kloisters Day Nursery & Pre-School

The staff at Kloisters are dedicated to the wellbeing of the children, as well as their education. All 3 of my children have attended Kloisters and have built relationships with staff who have supported them with the greatest care and compassion so that they can thrive with their communication, social skills and self care, as well as their understanding of core skills. I have really liked the increase in communication with families through the app and the activities that have been offered to include families, and we have found the staff to be organised and professional.

Review of Pelican Place Nursery

My daughter is always happy to go to nursery and gets super excited when we arrive at nursery. Her room teachers are always in high spirits, are super kind and show a lot of care and love for the children. The structure in place is easy to follow for us at home on the days she is not in nursery. The office admin staff are always useful and explain things clearly. We have not had problems with the nursery. My daughter has been here almost 2years. The food menu is also excellent and my daughter eats her food well. Staff help her with teaching reading, numbers, writing and games. The only thing l would suggest is refurbishment of the smaller building being used as pre-school. It looks like an afterthought and could use some remodelling to make it look like less of a converted house on a small budget to a nursery room with classroom like features since its to be ised as the preschool. Wider corridor and enlarge the classroom. Otherwise, its a good nursery for us and would recommend

Review of Just Imagine Day Nursery - Wickford Station Avenue

Outstanding nursery, my youngest is currently in the baby room and I cannot praise the staff enough. He settled in so well and absolutely loves going. I never have any worries whilst he is there and if I do, they respond to any messages pretty much straight away or I know they're just at the end of the phone. My eldest also attended this nursery, baby room up to big room and again no faults at all. The manager goes above and beyond for all the children/parents and you can see how much she loves her job and all the children. Both my children have come such a long way since being at this nursery. The food menu is brilliant, giving the children a good variety of home cooked meals. More variety than I would feed them at home! Thank you to all the girls here - you do such a wonderful job!

Review of CherryLands Nursery

As our daughter's journey at Cherrylands Nursery comes to an end, we want to say a huge thank you for all the love, care, and support you have given her. Cherrylands was never just a nursery for us-it became our second family. Our daughter absolutely loves Nicola, who has always been kind, patient, and caring. The bond they have built is truly special. A special thank you to Michelle too. Even while preparing the children's meals, she always made time to listen to my daughter's stories and was always ready to help her when needed. Her kindness means so much. Diane, the manager, is always supportive, approachable, and close to everyone, creating such a warm environment. Gracie is full of life and has helped Sofia learn not only skills but also important values like kindness and politeness. Our daughter has been loved, protected, encouraged, and educated every day. Saying goodbye will be emotional-not only for her but for me too. Thank you all !!

Her experience there was excellent and all of the staff in the office and pre-school room made us all feel very welcome, and Harriet really flourished whilst at Footsteps. The setting (indoor and outdoor) is brilliant, and we wish to extend a big thanks to all of the staff for all their hard work and support throughout Harriet's time at Footsteps.

Review of Grosvenor House Day Nursery & Pre-School

I can't recommend Grosvenor highly enough. We've been part of the Grosvenor family for the past six years, and while we've seen some changes along the way, the last two years have been exceptional. Every member of the team-from the front-of-house staff and key workers to the kitchen team and management-goes above and beyond every single day. The genuine care, kindness, and relationships they build with the children are truly special and make such a positive difference. We're so grateful for everything they've done for our family, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Grosvenor to anyone looking for a nurturing, supportive, and caring nursery.

Review of Woodberry Day Nursery & Pre-School (Peartree)

Our daughter has been enrolled at WDN (Peartree) for a little over a year now and we have nothing but praise for the service. She was a little anxious/nervous when starting however the staff were amazing - friendly and approachable and they always have a smile on their face. She now squeals with excitement when we approach the building and she realises that it's a 'Nursery Day'. The children have Key Workers who build lovely relationships with the children and provide parents with updates on how their child/ren are doing and what activities they have done that day. We love hearing what she's enjoyed doing - from playing outside to role play and more!. Her key workers have been particulally brilliant when supporting her with family changes, such as the arrival of her baby brother. The meals are excellent also, and it is evident that the cook loves what she does. Finally, the management staff have been so helpful supportive when we have needed to change our Nursery days. Thank you all x

Review of Rainbow Nursery

Both our child and us as parents were made to feel very welcome at Rainbow from day one. Shandrika and her team have always been very open, friendly and evidently caring about the children they look after. This includes the many child-parent sessions they put on throughout the year (mother/father's day, Christmas, graduation, etc) and the regular open days that they do where all present children and parents are invited (and most attend). The facilities are great, especially the front and back gardens, with many different rooms and play areas. We will very much miss the staff and how they have helped teach and grow our child.
