Review from Lauren A (Mother of Child) published on 10 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Head Start Crews Hill since she was 15 months old, and has gone from the baby room, to nursery room and is now in preschool. And I honestly can't fault it! We have been so happy with the nursery, from their amazing personalised care and creative activities to the food and the facilities - especially the outdoor areas. It has been an excellent start for our little one and she has been nothing but happy there the whole way through. I would whole heartedly recommend for any parent who is looking for childcare in the area with flexibility, outside space and relationship building. Not to mention how she has come on leaps and bounds thanks to their excellent learning programe. We are kept up-to-date via an app, including photos, events for parents to join and any key info. We are excited to be sending our second child here very soon! Thank you to all of you who have made our daughter feel so content and welcome every day, you know who you are!

My son loves going to Crews. He absolutely adores his key worker and all other staff and frequently talks very fondl of them at home. They really genuinely care about him and his development and are very nurturing. He has made great friends with his peers. The outdoor space is amazing and he loves spending time outside. He will be very sad to leave there and when he goes to school and I know we will really miss his key worker, as will I! Thank you for all your hard work, patience and love for my son.

Really happy with the guys at Head Start. The staff are friendly, professional and helpful. There is a nice personal touch and our children have built a nice genuine rapport with the staff, in particular 2 ladies. The staff are confident and competent and this is reflected in the level of care our children receive.

Review from Zana H (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has loved every moment at nursery! The staff are brilliant, really caring and have formed a great relationship with my daughter. Being at this nursery has helped contribute to her becoming a confident, creative, compassionate and clever little lady. She loves the people, always talking so fondly of the staff and other children, and she LOVES the food, always having second and third portions at most meals!!

Our favourite part of all, is the set up and space at the nursery. Endless grounds for adventures, which is perfect because Athena loves to be outside. I believe they are working towards their forest school status, with one staff member already certified. This is the main reason we chose the nursery, avoiding the cramped city nurseries that we see so much of in London.

Overall Experience

Both our children have had the most wonderful journey through their time at Head Start and left well prepared for the next chapter of school. The staff support every aspect of the children's welfare and education whilst maintaining a fun and welcoming environment. The grounds and faculties are excellent and well utilised with the children. As parents we will be sad to say goodbye and will always be grateful for the opportunities that Head Start have provided our children to develop an enjoyment of learning.

Review from Michelle M (Mother of Child) published on 28 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Both my children loved their time at Head Start. My second started school this week and has settled in with ease "as if he'd been here forever." They made good friends, their nursery teachers were always kind and caring, attentive, and formed close attachments to them. My first never misses a chance to go back and say hi. Everything was good, but the Spanish lessons, the concerts, and the graduation were real highlights.

I wholeheartedly recommend.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are to hear that both of your children had a great experience at Head Start. It is lovely to know that your second child transitioned to school smoothly and that they formed strong bonds with their nursery teachers and friends.

Overall Experience

Our experience of Head Start Nursery has been fantastic. We immediately felt happy and comfortable leaving our boys in their care. The staff have been amazing, supporting us at every milestone. It's a very anxious time leaving your child in someone else's care but we felt at ease that they were in a home-from-home. It will forever be in our hearts and the wonderful memories we have.

My son absolutely loved his time at Head Start Enfield. We all adore the staff members and are so grateful for the wonderful warm care he received while here. It was such a comfort to go to work knowing that he was in good hands. Everyone has been so friendly and helpful going the extra mile to ensure my son is happy and healthy. We are so sad to be leaving a lovely nursery and lovely people.

Thank you.

Our daughter and son attend Head Start Day Nursery Crews Hill
My son is only one and settled after a couple of weeks of tears. He now gets so excited to go in and has made such lovely relationships with his carers. He loves his time there.

My daughter loves her nursery class and is always talking about the fun things she has done and the friends she has made, she also has made very close relationships with her careers.

Review from I O (Mother of Child) published on 9 April 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have enjoyed being part of this community since the first day I visited, the team was beyond kind and made me feel very welcome.
I really like that they have a settling process of 5-6 weeks which gave me the confidence to know my daughter was ok on her first day and go back to work as she spent time there before.
I love the facilities of this nursery, kids can be kids, run and enjoy nature. They have indoor and outdoor activities daily and they don’t have to make “special tours” to the garden as it is just outside the rooms.

Even though I have a lot of nurseries closer to my place, I don’t mind driving 15 minutes daily to drop her.
