Day Nurseries Owned by Bellevue Education in London

We are quite happy with Little Elmhurst. My daughter started nursery when she was about 11 months old, which was quite early, and I was a little worried at first. However, the staff were very patient and supportive. It took her about four weeks to fully settle in, and now she is very comfortable and happy there every day.

My son is in the preschool class and has also settled in very well. I really like the variety of activities they organise for the children, and it's great to see him enjoying and participating in different things. Overall, we are very pleased with the nursery and the caring environment they provide.

My son and daughter absolutely love the nursery. They started attending from one a half year's old and I can visibly see their confidence, speech,vocabulary and even their appetite has developed well. The nursery manager at the time was really amazing at communicating how each child was developing and what we needed to do more of at home. The nursery is divided into upstairs for babies and downstairs for toddlers. I liked how the babies used to join the bigger kids downstairs and outside in the garden. Similarly, now that they are in the toddlers room, their confidence has grown exponentially due to the variety of activities that they do. The room manager and nursery managers are very kind to the children and you can see they really try to know them well (sometimes even better than me) and respond to each child's needs, which is important for any parent. Overall, we love Little Elmhurst.

Our daughter E has settled very well at Little Elmhurst having started at the age of 2. E is always happy to go to nursery and confidently walks through the door each morning. E has made significant progress and we are able to pick up and drop off inside of the room. I am therefore able to see first hand, the activities and learning objectives of the nursery. The environment is warm and family-orientated and we are always invited to engage and build solid relationships with all members of staff. World Book Day celebrations were fabulous. E's key worker Ms Malik is excellent, as is Ms Hyland, the nursery manager who operates an open door policy, which means we can always ask questions about E. There are also parent's evenings. I am very pleased with the way the nursery supports E's outside interests and I love the close relationship with staff at the preschool. Miss Lamprell, Mrs Gosai and Mrs King are amazing and know E very well which will make the transition to preschool seamless

We are grateful for the positive start Elmhurst School Lil Elms has given my daughter and highly recommend this nursery to other parents looking for a caring and stimulating early years setting.

My child has absolutely thrived at Little Elms. Their confidence has sky rocketed in everything from interpersonal skills to PE to phonics and reading. It has been truly lovely to see the shy child that was hesitant to leave my side at the start now eager to give things a go, confident in their environment and with an absolute love of learning. I cannot thank the team enough!

My son started attending Little Elms this year and he struggled to settle for his first week and as his mother I was somewhat embarrassed because of his behaviour in the mornings when dropping him off. The staff and the Little Elms teacher were all very understanding and very patient with my son. After 1 week of him attending Little Elms now, as soon as we turn into the school car park, my son is trying to remove his seat belt and telling me bye-bye before he even gets out the car. My son looks forward to attending school and I was very surprised he settled so soon as I thought it would have taken a little longer. It is very reassuring and settling for me his mother that my son is happy. The class teacher sends us updates on an app and we get to see the wonderful progress and activities. We are kept informed and all my queries are responded to in a timely manner. I hope my son continues to flourish as I have seen such a wonderful change in him since he has started at Elmhurst School.

My little one attended here for just over a year before he moved up to reception. The managers were amazing. The focus is on all-round learning and my child's happiness and confidence both skyrocketed here. The concerns here are addressed promptly and the small school environment makes it a great environment for your child to have that much needed attention. When your son cries wanting to go to school at the weekends, you know you've lucked out!

My son has been attending Little Elms at Elmhurst School for boys for nine months now. All I can say is I am beyond impressed, the growth in his learning has been incredible, his confidence has skyrocketed and he spends most of the week asking when he can go back to the nursery. The teachers genuinely care about the children and it radiates in everything they do. They have taught me ways to deal with my son's emotions which he sometimes finds overwhelming and the advice has been so valuable to us as a family. I would recommend this nursery to anyone wanting high-quality child care where children genuinely find learning fun. A great head start before they start school for sure.

Elmhurst is a lovely school where every child is seen as an individual. I love the size of the classes and that the teachers are so intentional with their children. The children are very positive about their time in school and are very engaged with learning. There are amazing teachers alongside the rest of the team. It's actually like a family!

The Manager and Headmistress are so natural with the boys. They have helped my three-and-a-half-year-old son to settle so well and he loves coming to Little Elms every day. His speech and confidence have developed so much since starting only three months ago, which is a testament to how dedicated they and the team are at helping the little one's progress. I would highly recommend Little Elms and I'm so happy I moved my son here from his previous nursery last October.

Little Elms Nursery is an exceptional nursery and we are so pleased that we have chosen it for our son. Since starting six months ago, our son has truly thrived and full credit for that must go to the wonderful teachers who have exceeded our expectations. The teachers at Little Elms go above and beyond for each and every child; providing a loving, nurturing, fun, stimulating, encouraging and personalised learning environment. My son genuinely adores his teachers which is a huge relief when dropping him off each morning; I know he is going to have the best day with them. The nursery is also open all year round which is a real benefit for working parents. So far we’ve had a really positive experience at Little Elms and we would highly recommend it to other parents.

As a parent of three, I didn't think anyone could possibly tell me something about children that I didn't know but Little Elms has repeatedly surprised me with how well they have been able to extract skills my son has which I am oblivious to. Having used other preschool settings for my children I can safely say none compare to Little Elms. The one to one relationships and nurturing the boys receive is amazing. The teaching element is introduced in such a way that the boys actually love learning, which anyone with sons would agree is a challenge. I could not be happier with the way in which things are run, with the extra peace of mind that no request is too much for them. It truly is beyond anything words can express.

Our son just turned three and joined Little Elms Nursery (part of Elmhurst School for boys) from another nursery. We were initially concerned with him settling in as he really liked his old nursery but we needn't have worried. As no in-person meetings were permitted due to Covid-19, the team at Little Elms Nursery (part of Elmhurst School for boys) were very creative in making our son feel connected before he joined. In ways such as setting up a video call and making several video messages. On his first day, they focused on activities and toys that he liked and gave him a super warm welcome. We were impressed with the approach adopted and the efforts made into helping our son settle in. The first week could not have gone any better, our son was raring to go on drop-off and always happy on pick-up. Since joining two weeks ago, he has already become more talkative, about what he was doing at Little Elms Nursery (part of Elmhurst School for boys) and is asking more questions about the world around him. We are very happy with the nursery and would highly recommend it.

Little Elms Nursery (part of Elmhurst School for Boys) is a great nursery and preschool that offers an encouraging and nurturing environment for the boys.

It's been an amazing experience at Little Elms Nursery (part of Elmhurst School for Boys) and I would be happy to recommend this nursery to other parents.

The simplest and most direct way to describe this nursery/pre-school is from the eyes and demeanour of our son. He is happy, loves the school, loves his teachers, is confident, is learning a lot and loves playing with his friends. He has never once not wanted to go to school. This says/means a lot to his mum and me, and makes it very easy to drop him off every day - with him leaving us with a confident hug and cheeky smile.

Little Elms has been a wonderful place for our son to start his school journey and we are so happy to have chosen Elmhurst School for Boys. The staff are supportive, enthusiastic, fun, nurturing, caring and put the children first in every scenario.

From baking to forest school to computing to painting in the snow, every day he has a new adventure and comes home with exciting stories to tell and experiences to draw on going forward.

He is excited to be starting to read as well as developing his maths skills and we are so grateful to the staff at Little Elms for sparking this love for learning at such a young age! We would recommend Little Elms to anyone, in a heartbeat.

Our son, three years old, started nursery at Elmhurst School for Boys in January 2021. His teachers have exceeded our expectations. They are both warm, welcoming and professional. I appreciate the regular communication, daily progress reports and candidness. They are always available to answer questions, provide extra assistance and work in partnership with us parents. They tailor the educational experience to the individual boy’s ability and spend one on one time with them daily to ensure the boys reach their full potential. In the short time that our son has been with Little Elms, he has matured and I have seen major improvements with his speech, writing, phonics and manners. In addition, to normal school activities, the boys have Yoga, French, Music and ICT lessons. I am confident that the school are preparing the boys to transition well into reception.

My child was in Little Elms last year, he loved it. Two members of staff, in particular, were amazing, from helping him to settle to playing with his peers to sharing. It was comforting to see the love outed into him and teaching him the essence of learning through play and structured work. I would definitely recommend Little Elms.
