Review from Sara B (Mother of Child) published on 22 March 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Management are very helpful. They are very understanding towards my needs and what I require the nursery to provide for my child. The nursery is very safe and I feel secure leaving child in the nursery's capable hands. The staff in her room are amazing and very friendly and plan wonderful activities daily for my child to be stretched and grow.

Review from Marissa T (Mother of Child) published on 11 March 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

All members of staff are friendly and approachable. Generally facilities appear well maintained and good focus on both indoor and outdoor activities. Room manager very competent, helpful, friendly but overstretched as supporting team possibly not appropriately trained or at a relevant level for age of children (pre-school) particularly one special needs individual in the room who possibly requires 1 on 1 supervision ideally I understand this may not be possible but more support for enthusiastic team would help.

Review from Joanna (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Lovely nursery with good staff. There's always a lot of staff in the room, which gives a good combination of support and attention, but they also allow independent play, which is great for the children as well.

The toys are all in good condition and help with the kids developments. The rooms are tidy (well not at food time or messy play!!) and clean. They also have a lovely outside area, surprisingly big for a London nursery.

Both my children really enjoy going (I don't work, I choose to take them here for a couple of afternoon's as it's a great setting for them and they definitely benefit from the interaction with other kids, and time away from their mummy!)

Overall Experience

First impressions always count. When we first entered my husband and I loved the warm reception. The staff made us feel so welcomed. The atmosphere was lovely, very baby friendly, lots of space and activities. Every day the staff will tell me of my daughter's progress which was really great to know. Their safeguarding policy is really good and I know my daughter is in great hands.

I feel that the team at Looking Glass in tooting are great. Its a lovely place for my daughter to be at. The team in the office are brilliant and helpful as well as will listen to your views when you tell them something. The team in pre-school two are fantastic. I feel they do a functional job and they are great with the kids. My daughter loves it here and so do I. Wonderful team and a lovely place.

Review from Kathryn A (Mother of Child) published on 1 March 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Looking Glass is a wonderful and caring nursery. All the staff are warm welcoming and know the children so well. They are always happy to take the time to discuss your child and their progress. The learning journey of each child is really well documented and each child gets a written report card each day. My daughter has gained so much confidence and learnt so many skills in her 18 months at Looking Glass. She loves going to school in the morning. I feel so lucky to have found this nursery and I recommend it to everyone I know. It is so comforting knowing that I can go to work in the knowledge that my daughter is safe and happy.

Overall Experience

The nursery it's staff and the environment are above and beyond all expectations. My son is treated as an individual not a pupil with love and kindness and they do all they can to integrate parenting with nursery life. A fantastic place with exceptional staff.

Laura
Laura Job Title:Deputy Manager and the Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO)Joined: 2021

I am the Deputy Manager and the Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator (SENCO) at Tooting Looking Glass Day Nursery.

I have over 10 years of experience working with children and I hold a level 3 in Child Care and Education.

Before I joined Bright Horizons I was a manager of a smaller nursery, I have experience as a learning support assistant and senior nursery nurse in the primary education sector supporting classroom teachers and children of different ages. My role as a SENCO can be varied - I am responsible for assessing, planning and monitoring the progress of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). I support the identification of children with special educational needs and coordinate provision for them too. I also liaise with parents and with other providers such as outside agencies, educational psychologists, health visitors and speech therapists to ensure we are supporting the children in the best way possible. I create support plans for children and organise tailored activities/interventions to support their development.

My role as Deputy is to assist Terry in providing professional leadership and management of the nursery. I promote the health, safeguarding and well-being of children as well as being a role model to other staff to deliver high-quality experiences and care for the children.
