Review of The Butterfly Patch Cobham from Mathilde D (Mother of Child) published on 16 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Words cannot describe the amazing environment and care provided by the whole team at Butterfly Patch Cobham. Our son has been attending this nursery since he was 8 month old and is now ready to start into the preschool section this month.
We are seeing him thriving in his learning and development and couldn't thank the whole team enough for their work and contribution to this. They encourage the children to discover the world around them and always have very creative ideas for crafts, baking, forest outings, and lovely attentions for each calendar events of the year. We are definitively sure that we made the best choice for a good start in school life and are convinced that the team's care is forging healthy and strong foundations.

This nursery feels like an extended part of our family and we would forever be grateful for the team's work and care they provide to our children. Huge thank you to all of the team of Butterfly Patch Cobham for your exceptional care!

Review of The Butterfly Patch Morden Park Forest School and Nursery from Elaine C (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending the Nursery for nearly 2 years - since he turned two. The staff have been fantastic from the start.
My son has Down Syndrome and is still non talking. I am teaching him to communicate using Makaton. The staff fully embraced this, especially Kim, who has been a true advocate - she has learnt Makaton and attended many courses to ensure he can communicate with them and feel comfortable and happy at Nursery. Kim gives detailed communication, both verbal and written about my son's progress and targets. Wow moments and photos are regularly added on the app.
All the staff are caring, warm and truly dedicated to the children. They have helped with his development and confidence in so many ways.
He loves being at Nursery and always signs friends and fun before we go and is full of smiles at the end of the day.

I am extremely happy that I chose The Butterfly Patch.

Review of The Butterfly Patch Sutton (at Avenue Primary) from J D (Mother of Child) published on 2 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have a 3.5 year old in the older classroom and a 9 month in the baby room and the staff are incredible. My children struggled to settle at the start but Kira, Jemma and Leanne have been amazing. They have come up with helpful things we can do at home to help with drop off. They are always so quick to reply to any messages and questions we have. He loves Jemma and Kira and is always talking about the fun things they do. They have also been amazing at letting him go outside in the morning if he is upset in order to get some fresh air and calm down which we also now do at home.

Would 100% recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience

Our son is so happy every day when I drop and collect him from The Butterfly Patch. He is developing so well, from social skills to vocabulary. He loves all the activities he does, such as singing, arts and crafts and walks out in Cobham. The funding also makes this place affordable for us. The staff are so friendly and great at communication. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience
Our daughter has been attending The Butterfly Patch in Cobham for nearly a year and a half, and the experience has been wonderful. The transition was seamless, and the staff have consistently gone above and beyond to make her feel at home.

It's such a joy to pick her up and see how engaged and happy she is every afternoon. We've seen her confidence and social skills blossom during her time here. The communication from the team is excellent, and we feel completely confident leaving her in their expert hands. A massive thank you to the whole team for making her early years so special!

Overall Experience
The whole team at the Butterfly Patch in Sutton are brilliant. Hugely empathetic, kind and nurturing to all children. I really couldn't rate them high enough.
They are flexible to each parents needs, as well as the child. Additionally the food which they provide is a wide range means my child is trying more and more things, always with comfort options on the side.

A big shoutout to both Jemma and Kira for their hard work and words of support!

Review of The Butterfly Patch Hampton Court from Laura C (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter (now three) has been going to the butterfly patch in Hampton court for nearly 18 months now - she absolutely LOVES it. The staff are amazing, and she's really flourished - after a less so positive experience at another nursery my daughter has just settled into the butterfly patch so well. The staff are so gentle and kind and the whole place feels so genuine. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nursery for their little one!

Review of The Butterfly Patch Morden Park Forest School and Nursery from Ta-jay L (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending the butterfly patch for over a year now and it has had a significant effect on him, he enjoys the daily activities the nursery provides and loves all of the staff members. He always comes home raving about his day. He joined with a speech delay but the staff have been nothing but patient and helped him improve his speech tremendously. Kim has been a star in helping to assist him with his communication skills, she has taken the time to teach my son sign language which he has used confidently to communicate whenever he struggles to verbally. Kim communication with me as a parent is excellent no matter if it is negative or positive she takes the time to explain what has happened and even gives tips on how to help my son excel even more. All the staff members are positive and helpful Farah has also been a star when it comes to helping with the progression of my son and provides a detailed breakdown of where he is doing positively and where he needs improvement.

Review of The Butterfly Patch Sutton (at Avenue Primary) from R D (Mother of Child) published on 2 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I'm a mum of a 3-year-old who has been attending this nursery for the past three months, and I couldn't be happier with our experience so far. The staff are incredibly kind, caring, and welcoming, which has made settling in so easy for my child.
My little one genuinely enjoys the nursery environment and is always excited and looking forward to going in each day. It's been lovely to see how comfortable and happy they feel there.

I also really appreciate the variety of activities planned, especially the nature-based activities, which are both fun and educational. Overall, it's a warm, nurturing nursery with a great atmosphere, and I would highly recommend it to other parents.

We absolutely love The Butterfly Patch in Morden. Our son has been going since he was just 1 year old. The staff are warm, caring, and truly dedicated to the children, and the environment is always welcoming, and full of fun activities. We've seen our son grow in confidence, learn new skills, and build wonderful relationships with all the staff. We couldn't be happier with the care he receives. We highly recommend it!

Review of The Butterfly Patch Morden Park Forest School and Nursery from Jade W (Mother of Child) published on 18 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started at the nursery in September when she was 13 months old and I could honestly not recommend it enough. The staff are all so friendly and accomodating and you can tell they genuinely care. They plan a wide range of activities for the children each day, keep you regularly updated throughout the day and all of the kids (mine included!) always look so happy in the photos and are always having so much fun. My daughter practically leaps out of my arms over to the staff in the morning as she is so excited to see them and start the day! She has developed so much since starting - it was the best decision!

Review of The Butterfly Patch Croydon - Shirley from I G (Mother of Child) published on 24 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I could not recommend this nursery more highly. My child has been there only 3 months, she settled immediately and is now thriving.
The nursery has a variety of indoor and outdoor toys and there are new exciting activities/arts and crafts/ messy play put on for the children each day. They spend lots of time outdoors and even sometimes go on outings.
The garden is big and full of appropriate toys and vehicles to play with.

All of the staff are professional, knowledgeable, kind, caring and warm. I feel that my child is in an environment where she feels safe and loved and is able to develop strong relationships with the staff and her peers. The daily updates and information shared about my child and their setting is consistent and more than I hoped for. They even have Spanish lessons once a week!!

Review of The Butterfly Patch Sutton (at Avenue Primary) from Lulu S (Mother of Child) published on 29 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

When searching for a nursery, I struggled to find one that I was comfortable with. Although I was looking for an all year round nursery, the Butterfly Patch in Sutton stood out to me, and I decided to make things work around the term time only attendance. The nursery manager has been absolutely amazing. I was so nervous about sending my baby to nursery but she has been so helpful from first contact until now. She has always been available to answer all my queries, and has made the transition an exceptional experience. When visiting the nursery I could tell that the children there were happy, and that the staff there are caring and attentive to the needs of the children. Although it's not the biggest setting, and as mentioned it's restricted to term time only, I truly feel that I have chosen the best place for my child from the great care and service provided by all members of staff. I am so grateful for all they do, and want to ensure that their efforts are recognised.
