My son has been going to the nursery for the last four months. He's in the toddler room and he loves every second that he's there, even when he's not there, he asks to go. The manager is very, very good and he keeps his staff on their toes, making sure they are all doing their jobs properly. He's also very easy to speak to and has a good sense of humour. The staff are welcoming and really care for the children. I recommend this nursery to everyone.
Again, thank you for the very positive feedback.
Management does show some understanding of the child not being able to attend nursery on same days of the week, which is a nice touch.
Thanks again for the review, much appreciated.
We visited many nurseries, and are quite happy we picked this one for our 11-month old, though it isn't that close to home for us.
Management and staff are very warm, welcoming and knowledgeable, You can tell they really care. Baby settled very easily, and we even learned some useful tricks to make life easier at home.
Very nice facilities, great toys and activities, smart nutrition, and flexible enough to accommodate our non-standard fluctuating schedules. We also really like the diversity of languages among babies and staff.
Cost isn't ridiculous, but a bit higher than other places. You get what you pay for though.
Dear Michael, thanks for writing a review about our nursery. It's great to know your baby has settled and is enjoying nursery life; the team will be delighted to learn of your positive comments - thanks again.
My son loves the nursery very much. He has improved a lot with his manners and his speech more. The staff and teacher there are nice, kind and warm. Outstanding performance.
Thank you for your kind review. It's great to know how much your son enjoys our lovely nursery.
After reviewing a number of nurseries in the area we decided on Little Garden Clapham. Staff were very welcoming and thorough, they take time with the children and parents alike. The nursery feels like a family and all the staff know the children. Our daughter seems to love it and has developed her social skills, confidence and speech significantly. Most staff are enthusiastic and take the time to talk you through the day. Facilities are good and remain clean, tidy and organised. We feel very happy and confident in our choice for our daughter.
Dear Laura, thank you for taking the time write a review; we really do appreciate your feedback and the team will be delighted to read your very kind comments. I am delighted to know your daughter is doing well and enjoying her time at the nursery.
Excellent facilities, wonderful staff, very good care
Good nutrition, diversity in activities and learning.
Clean environment, great outdoor space for the children
My child settled into the nursery very quickly having been at an alternative local nusery, due to the support and warm approach from staff
Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. It's great to know your child has settled at the nursery. Thanks again.
Communication from the management team is regular and efficient and I love the newsletter that the parents receive about upcoming events at the nursery etc.
The baby room is very well managed and the staff always seem under control- no mean feat when you are trying to give breakfast to lots of toddlers. Our son is given healthy and varied food which is all prepared on site with no added sugar. There is a play area outside which the children seem to love.
Overall we are really pleased with Clapham Day Nursery & Preschool and I would happily recommend the nursery to other parents - a big thank you all the baby room team.
Dear Lucy, thank you for your review. We are delighted to hear how your son is enjoying nursery life and very grateful for your kind comments and recommendation.
My daughter has attended the nursery for over a year now and she loves it. She is alway very keen to talk about her day, what she has learnt (for example she loves telling me new words she has learnt in the French class) and who she has played with etc. I have seen so many changes in my daughter and I love it! She has such a big personality and it means the world to me seeing her happy at nursery. I appreciate all the hard work and dedication from the staff members and management. The staff in my daughter class room communicate well with explaining how her day went and also caring for her in all ways needed.There are a good variety of activities set up and available for the children to engage to engage in.
Thank you.
Dear Simone, thank you so much for leaving this review. It's great to hear your positive feedback - the team will be thrilled. Again, thank you.
The nursery has been recently renovated and looks really nice. The staff are really making a good job in taking care of the kids and we can see that in our little one being very happy and smiley all the time. Overall, very happy with the choice.
(The new manager is excellent), a better organisation, refurbishment works (inside and outside - the new garden is fantastic!). The care and education provided is excellent, with good resources and what is the most important in our opinion, very loving and caring staff, with special thanks in that respect to the male nursery assistant in the Toddlers room and the nursery nurse in the Pre-school room. Our son feels very confident and happy there.
Recently the Pre-schoolers have even been on a trip to the Science Museum, which I found absolutely brilliant for their age and I understand the trip was a great success! Looking forward to the next trips!
I have already recommended this nursery and will continue to do so.
Choosing the right nursery for your child is not easy and you want to make sure it is right and we are all incredibly happy with our choice. The children have such a diverse day and the variation at this stage is key for their development. He has also has a very varied diet which combines many food groups and cultures. As a result, I have a little boy who will eat anything! I would have no hesitation in recommending.
Our daughter has been at the Little Gardens Clapham nursery for the past three months and we couldn't be happier with the level of care she is receiving. Since attending the nursery we have noticed leaps in her physical development and social skills, something which the nursery are consistently supportive of.
The staff in the baby room are passionate about their jobs, evident through the positive relationships they have built with the children. The support offered by nursery staff and management is definitely personalised to the child and involves a collaborative relationship with the family. For example, I was particularly worried about the weaning process but the staff have gone the extra mile to help through offering advice and reassurance.
Every morning, I know that my son will have a great day there: doing lots of great activities, learning a lot in a secure/clean environment.
I have been very pleased with how things have gone with my son at the Clapham Day Nursery. He has only been going for a couple of weeks and seems very happy to be dropped off there in the morning. The staff in the baby room are very friendly and have been taking great care of him. His Key worker has been really wonderful.
The staff is very friendly, caring and responsive and most important there wasn't any change of staff for the last year.
My 3-year-old son feels secure and speaks about the different activities he has been enjoying during his day.
The activities are well planned and diverse.
This place has improved out of sight over the past six months. The people were always great, but now the environment is also really good. My son loves it is there and he talks about the male nursery nurse a lot, in particular, I am very glad we found this place.
I am very happy with the Little Gardens Clapham. The nursery is well managed, was recently refurbished to a high standard. My 1.5 year old is happy to go there. Staff take very good care of children, both for entertainment and hygiene/cleanliness. The outside area is very nice. A wide range of toys, activities, personal approach to children and parents.
It made a big leap forward on all aspects: Good staff, stable staff and good curriculum.
My daughter has been attending this nursery for the past 2 and a half months. Since she has started, I have seen vast improvements in her learning. The overall care is excellent and they are always happy to help. My daughter is always happy to go to nursery and talks about the staff at home. The recent refurbishment looks fantastic and we can't wait to see the new garden.
I think this Nursery/Pre-school is excellent! Both my children attend (the eldest for over 2 years) and their development has been fantastic. The staff are all excellent, and imaginative with teaching to inspire young minds, and the new outdoor garden/playground is fantastic. The nursery has a warm, friendly and nurturing environment, all staff are approachable and willing to provide in-depth feedback on the children. Management is always ready to listen to new ideas from parents on how to improve the nursery. Both my boys are extremely happy here, I highly recommend the Clapham Day Nursery & Pre-School!
