My daughter had a fantastic three years at Children's Corner Day Nursery, and we both loved it. The staff are caring and attentive, treating each child individually. When my child had a concern at age three, the nursery contacted me right away, listened to her, and resolved everything quickly. The nursery
feels like a cosy home, with handmade tools and a warm atmosphere. After her graduation, we received a personalized photo collage, showing the thoughtful care they put into everything. Communication was flawless, with daily updates and photos through their app. My child was also well-prepared for school; her primary teacher was impressed with her English skills, especially since she's trilingual. Most importantly, my child was happy and well looked after. We're grateful to the manager and 2 staff members in particular, and all the wonderful staff for making these years so special!

My child came to Children's Corner Day Nursery when he was a baby, and recently left as a little boy! We loved Children's Corner during our time there, and miss it dearly.
We loved the family feel, and I always felt assured that my son was in good hands. Not only did my son have a wonderful time,
learning and growing, but we also had a blast at the fun family events they held on a regular basis too.
Lots of memories were held there, and and lots of fun too! Thank you!! Thank you!!
Now that my son has moved to 'big school' over the last month, he still talks about his 'small school', and all his friends and teachers there.

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

WOW!!! thank you so much for your beautiful feedback. We do miss him around the garden, playing with his friends. So pleased that you all have great memories.

I decided to enroll my son at this nursery because of the good reviews of this nursery on this website, and the nursery was as excellent as the reviews said it would be. All the staff were attentive. My child enjoyed going to the nursery.
It was amazing that not only the key person but also the other
teachers were very observant of my child and aware of what was going on. (He has been to other nurseries before and they didn't know each child as well as this.)
My son was not a native English speaker, but with the support of the teachers at this nursery, he is able to speak English fluently now.
The staff not only provided day-to-day childcare but also organised a variety of events for the different seasons, which the whole family enjoyed being involved in, not just the children.
Unfortunately, we had to leave the nursery because we moved to another country, but my son wants to return here!

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your kind words, we have thoroughly enjoyed being part of his life and he has entertained us so much. Please do keep in touch and take care.

My child spent full-time at Children's Corner for the last 21 months. It is a great independent nursery with very caring staff. He enjoyed going to the nursery and built strong bonds with the nursery staff. Food is freshly cooked in the nursery and they try hard to offer a variety of foods. It has a
good garden space big enough for a number of kids and they spend lots of time outside, which is nice. They also try to organise some events every now and then where we meet other parents. It felt like a family and even I feel sad that my child is now leaving this nursery. We would highly recommend Children's Corner to our friends and definitely come back if we had another child!

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your feedback and your kind words. The pleasure has been all ours, watching your little boy flourish. I hope you guys continue enhancing the beautiful relationships that have been created for yourselves and amongst the little pals.

Absolutely brilliant nursery that has a high rating for a reason. My son enjoys his nursery and his personality has bloomed since he started. The staff are attentive and extremely professional. They put all my concerns at ease when my son started, they always kept me in the loop, and in my heart I’m
glad I chose this nursery for him to attend.

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

Our little man was fairly shy around non-family and takes a while to warm up to people. He was at Children's Corner for two years and, when we left, two years later due to leaving the area, he was a lot more confident and showing his real character on a more regular basis. During his time there his
confidence grew and he made his first friendship which was lovely to see.
On moving, he has settled really well into his new nursery, which I am sure is down in no small part to the confidence he built during his Children's Corner days.
Special mention to the incredibly varied food menu, which made us very jealous of the sandwiches we were having for lunch!

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, I hope he has transitioned to his new home & garden, and new nursery and is making lots of friends. Miss his shy smile. Hope you're also doing well with your new country life.

We had tried several nurseries before finding Children's Corner, I was exhausted, defeated and lost trust in private-run nurseries. My son is my world, just like any other parent feels about their children, and therefore him being happy and safe was so important, especially as he is SEN and pre-verbal.
In the past when I would take him to other nurseries, he would cry at the door and this was always heart-breaking as it was a sign he was not happy. But at Children's Corner he used to run down the road laughing as we approached the nursery. The owner supported me with every aspect of the referral so that my boy would be seen by the autistic team. My son loved every staff member at the nursery. I was so sad when it was time for us to move. If your looking for a nursery that actually cares about your children and supports parents, then Children's Corner is a perfect home to home nursery.

You have brought me to tears. It was an absolute pleasure to have you and your beautiful son. Every time we serve rice krispies we think about him. Please do visit and you know where I am.

I highly recommend this nursery!
Staff:
The key workers of my two sons are amazing. They have strong bonds with my children. When I struggled with my eldest son’s 'big emotions', they supported me and provided invaluable advice. The remaining staff are brilliant too and very international. The proprietor
of the nursery is a true expert in children.
Food:
Food must be one of the best things about this nursery. The daily menu is nutritious and includes things like pasta, curry, paella and lots of fresh fruit. The in-house chef cooks everything fresh and my children say it’s 'yummy'.
Environment:
The garden is lovely and has a tree house. Children spend lots of time outdoors.
Activities:
Activities are varied and creative; role play, water play, obstacle courses, arts the list is endless... There is no screen time which is great.
My eldest has now started primary school and still speaks fondly of the nursery. Thank you all for the love, care and support throughout the years.

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

I will always have the vision of chatting to you at the front door, awaiting your first born to start... I love your organisational skills and how you fold each item of children's clothing is something that I will take with me. You have two beautiful boys and what amazing parents you guys are that the children have three different languages.

Our daughter was at Children's Corner for two years and had a wonderful time. It is a great setting for young children with kind, dedicated and supportive staff, and excellent facilities that encourage children to be creative, imaginative and playful. Our daughter started her time as a quiet child,
but she found her voice and made lots of friends - we were impressed with how she developed and matured. Children's Corner excels in nutrition. The meals and snacks are healthy and home-cooked. Thanks to a particular member of staff for this. Contact with the staff was easy. Our daughter's key workers were always keen to update us about her progress. The app and the closed social media group allowed us to see her having fun during the various activities she participated in. A member of staff's Sunday emails meant we knew what was happening in the week ahead. We only left Children's Corner because our daughter joined a school nursery, but we would have no hesitation recommending Children's Corner to any parents.

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

A huge thanks to you all for your kind words. We hope she settles in well into her next chapter. We really enjoyed our time with you all. Please stay connected.

Children's Corner is a lovely, caring nursery with attentive staff who clearly value each child. Children are encouraged to do a wide range of activities each day, making various creations, water play etc. I am also very impressed that they take them on occasional day trips to the park, fire station
and even the science museum, which the children all love. The food menu is very impressive, with a wide variety of meals that put the rest of us to shame! Our son thrived there with his social development and he was completely ready when he started school this month, which was great. Our daughter has just started her second year at the nursery. If I was to criticise anything, it would be that she has had quite a few key workers in her time there so far. I appreciate there can be a turnover of staff that is in many ways beyond their control, but it feels like she's had more than her fair share of change when consistency is obviously preferable. I'd highly recommend the nursery to others.

Children's Corner has been a big part of our lives for the past four years with each of our daughters spending two years at the nursery. From the moment we stepped foot in the nursery and received a very warm welcome, we knew that this place really is a home away from home and each child is cared for
according to their own needs. The three key persons that our daughters had were just truly wonderful, they built really strong relationships with our children and made their days at the setting amazing. The range of art activities, water and role play that the children are encouraged to do from such a young age nurtures their social, personal, emotional and educational development very well. The healthy, on-site made food has also been a highlight of our children's days and they always talked with excitement about what they had each day. Our kids with the nursery's support had a wonderful early years experience and are ready to transition to school life confidently. Thank you for everything!

My son has been at Children's Corner from age two to age four. We have had a great experience with the manager and her team. They care deeply about each child at the nursery. They create a supportive and fun environment to help the kids learn and develop; lots of messy play, outdoor play, field trips
and creative activities. The quality of the food is very high and our son loves his personal chef! I would not hesitate to recommend Children's Corner to other Ealing families!

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

Wow.... cannot believe it's that time... I still remember our viewing. Your little man is not the only one who thinks the nursery chef is his personal chef! Our chef loves to see the children enjoy their meals. So nice that he has made amazing friends and they do enjoy their outdoor play.

We have both of our boys at Children's Corner and they have both been there since they turned 1. They both love it and come back very happy telling us about everything they've done over the day, with lots of arts and crafts, messy play and good healthy meals and fun trips. Parents' evenings have also
been very helpful as well as daily diaries and photos from their day. The staff are very friendly and genuinely seem to care about the children and our 4-year-old will really miss the place when he starts school. We're very happy we sent them both to this nursery. Thanks!

My daughter attended the nursery for eighteen months. Throughout this entire time, I have been more than happy with the care, fun and support my daughter has received from the owner/manager and her team. There were a variety of outings, trips to the park and around Ealing, and lots of different activities.
Communication was regular and clear, and I had faith in the team that my daughter was in great hands. I really appreciated how the nursery celebrate occasions individual to each child, they baked soda bread on St Patrick's day as I am Irish, and ensured I got a taste. The Mother's Day breakfast was a lovely gesture, along with the graduation ceremony - the team put so much effort into these special days. Since the first day, my daughter has ran in with delight and excitement and never looked back. I look forward to sending my next child and seeing her thrive in this wonderful environment. Thank you to the owner/manager and all the team!

Reply from Kokila Patel, Owner/Manager at Children's Corner Day Nursery

The staff in Children’s Corner Day Nursery treat kids like family. We felt the sincere care they have for our daughter. It’s a place where you can leave your kid and be confident that they are in good hands. The owner is very much hands on and addresses issues in a timely manner. My daughter went to
a lot of trips outside of the nursery (as far as Stratford in East London), including the bank, post office, groceries, etc. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Children's Corner Day Nursery is amazing! It's a small, personable, well-run nursery with experienced and very caring staff. Our son absolutely loved it there. We especially valued the large amount of outside play (rain or shine) in the sizeable back garden, the varied and healthy meals and snacks prepared
by the in-house chef, the field trips, the stimulating learning environment, and the informative parent evenings. We really couldn't have asked for a better first childcare experience for our son, and we were very sad to say goodbye when we moved out of the area.

My son has been with this nursery for almost two years and if we could have, we would have kept him there for a few more!
Before choosing this nursery we visited quite a lot of different places but had no doubt this was the right one for our child when we visited Children's Corner Day Nursery and
met the owner.
It really is a great, little, lovely corner for your child, where they'll have fun, learn and grow happy.
The environment is almost like a home. There are different rooms with different themes where children are encouraged to socialise and explore their interests.
During the day, there will be a lot of teacher-led activities as well as having time for playing and exploring things together with their peers.
The place is clean and tidy and the food varied is prepared on-site by the chef.
The staff are very competent, passionate and professional. We genuinely loved all the teachers and there will always be a place in our hearts for the room leader and the owner. Thanks!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.882)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.882) out of 10 for Children's Corner Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.882 for Children's Corner Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.882

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Children's Corner Day Nursery is based on 12 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 27 number of registered child places is 5.4, which has been reached with 12 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
