Review from Claire G (Mother of Child) published on 24 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has really thrived at MOTP. Not only does she get exposure to activities that bring her tons of joy, but she's learned so many new skills, from drinking from a straw (in baby room) to blowing her nose to cleaning up after her meals. They enable her independence while keeping her both safe and stimulated. The daily reports help us as parents understand how she settled into the Toddler 1 room and kept us updated on any developmental challenges to overcome. She seems as happy to leave our arms in the morning as she is to return to them at the end of the day; that tells me that MOTP truly has become our village and she is so lucky for it.

Our daughter eats well, sleeps better for her carers there than she does for us at home at nap time, and has been exposed to so much programming and play that she's adored, from art projects to outdoor playtime to music and drama class. We have been so confident in our decision to go to MOTP and have recommended it to many local parents.

We came back to MOTP with our second child and could not be happier. Our child learns something new every week. The staff is attentive and available to answer our queries. We could not be happier about the care and support we receive here. We highly recommend the nursery.

Review from S B (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Montessori on the Park has been a wonderful experience for my one-year-old. The nursery truly emphasizes child development through a hands-on learning approach. The environment is thoughtfully designed to encourage exploration and independence, allowing children to engage with various materials that cater to their individual interests and developmental stages.
The staff is incredibly attentive and nurturing, fostering a sense of security and confidence in the children. They focus on promoting social skills, problem-solving abilities, and fine motor skills through interactive activities. It's heartwarming to see how my child has grown in such a supportive atmosphere, developing not just academically but also emotionally.

Overall, Montessori on the Park has created a nurturing space where my child can thrive, learn, and develop at their own pace. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a child-centered approach to early education.

Review from Tope T (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

A really great nursery and my toddler loves it. One outstanding example of their great care is, my toddler was finding the transition to nursery hard, so they did a home visit to familiarise themselves to him and even bought his favourite books and toys for the nursery so he could feel comfortable there. Amazing staff, very friendly and a great debrief everytime at pick up. My Toddler learnt 'tidy up' at nursery and many more things that are helping him learn and grow positively.

Our child is extremely happy in her class. She loves her teachers and has made lots of friends.
We are very happy with the service.

We would like to see better quality photos taken at the end of each week. The photos are very pixilated and grainy.

Overall Experience

We are so happy with MOTP. Our 9 month old daughter started there when she was 6 months old. She gets such wonderful care and attention - they have tons of engaging activities ranging from baking, painting, sing-a-longs and plenty of outdoor time. The children are all so happy and well stimulated. It is such a relief knowing she is so well looked after when I'm not with her.

Overall Experience

Montessori on the Park has been amazing for my son, and I couldn't be happier with the care he's received. The staff are warm, supportive, and truly dedicated. They made toilet training so much easier with their patience and encouragement, and my son absolutely loves Forest School-he comes home buzzing with excitement about his outdoor adventures! The nurturing environment, engaging activities, and great facilities make this nursery truly special. A huge thank you to the manager and team for everything they do. I highly recommend Montessori on the Park to any parent!

Review from Eileen S (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

MOTP is a fantastic nursery. Our experience has always been so positive. My 2.5 year old is currently in toddler 2 and loves it, after a brilliant experience in toddler 1. My 6 year old attended both toddler 2 and pre-school at MOTP. The staff are so caring and kind and talented. They have a calm way of working with the children that allows the children to express themselves, whilst enjoying an orderly and thoughtful, safe and stimulating environment. The settling process for both my children was handled brilliantly, with lots of support and experience and all went smoothly. My children love the challenge of being the nursery enviroment at MOTP and enjoy being part of the community - which really feels like an extended family. Regular outings to the park, forest school, singing, dancing and yoga are all highlights of their experience. Christmas parties and end of year celebrations give parents a chance to join in too. I recommend MOTP so highly - well managed, friendly and caring.

Overall Experience

Such a wonderful place, I cannot recommend enough. We're grateful for the care and attention the team give our 2 year old boy. There's so many positives to call out, highlights for us are the setting (proximity to park), facilities (all rooms are in great shape, and the garden is great), team members show real care for the kids (our boy absolutely loves it there & it's his happy place), community (there's a great sense of like minded people, it's great meeting other parents and we've made friends for life), food is excellent and Chef is a warm and friendly soul who always makes time for a chat, the management of the nursery, is absolutely fantastic, her attention to detail is exceptional, she somehow knows everyone and it just feels like the place is in safe hands either way her in charge.

Montessori on the Park is a wonderful place and I felt very confident sending my baby there at 9 months. It has a great manager who was very helpful from the very start. The baby room staff is doing an amazing job. They really connect and care about the baby and make notes of what requires attention.

I can't recommend the nursery highly enough.

Brilliant nursery with a fantastic manager. Great duty of care and lovely staff. My kid is thrilled at pick up and drop off. Even better now he's started Forest school with them.

He had a tricky moment as we welcome our second kid into the family, nursery supported his big emotions with thoughtful one on one care and he's now settled into life as a big brother very well

Review from Ahalya N (Mother of Child) published on 17 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both my children have been at Montessori on the Park at different times from September 2023, and my daughter is currently in the Baby Room. The staff are wonderful and my daughter, who started at the nursery just before she turned 1, enters the room each morning with a bright smile and open arms! We have watched her thrive and develop over the last few months, and cannot recommend Montessori on the Park highly enough.

Our toddler is learning so much here. The learning curve has been exponential and the type of activities that the nursery exposes them to is fantastic. Great garden outdoor space, close to the park, variety in food and really supportive and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Review from Tom M (Father of Child) published on 23 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both our boys went to Montessori On The Park and loved it.
Our oldest settled immediately after two less positive nursery experiences and really enjoyed his time there.
While our youngest was attending Montessori On The Park, we found out that he had additional needs. The support we got from the whole team, on top of their already brilliant service, was really amazing. They secured local authority funding to buy special toys and games to help him develop and really went out of their way to ensure he got what he needed, even finding a way to give him one-to-one support and supervision. They played a vital role in helping him to transition to a mainstream school where he is now thriving.

We can't recommend Montessori On The Park highly enough.

Overall Experience

Both my children have been at the nursery for the last two years and we have sadly had to leave due to moving home. We absolutely loved the Montessori On The Park and my children still ask if they can go back every single day. We always felt our children were really cared for and they really got to know their little personalities and gave personal feedback. The nursery also has some legendary characters such as one staff member and the kids still talk about the guitar singalongs! We cannot recommend the Montessori On The Park highly enough.
