My daughter started in the ducklings room and then moved to sparrows and both have been fantastic. The staff is caring and they seem to do lots of activities. We get regular updates about what they've done and what they're going to be doing the next week, which is great as it helps me feel more informed
about my daughter's Day. They seemed to spend lots of time in the garden or in the local park, which I absolutely love. I was a bit worried about her transition from the baby into the toddler room and I wanted to do it a bit earlier as I was having another baby and didn't want that transition at the same time, and the management staff were very accommodating. I think my only criticism would be that some days (particularly around the holidays) the primary staff didn't seem to be there (at least at drop off and pick up). But I think it was a timing thing, as most days the key staff workers we know are there even if others are there as well.

Our son is really happy at Dicky Birds and often mentions staff and his friends at home. The staff is very dedicated and always goes the extra mile to offer an exciting week at the nursery. As parents we find that the nursery communicates well and we are updated on a regular basis. The nursery also
offers the opportunity to spend some time with the staff, other children and their parents during special events, such as the summer party.

Great nursery. Staff is friendly and dedicated to the kids. One of the big aspects is the outdoor space and the amount of time they spend outdoors being creative and moving. All activities are shaped to children's age and they are given the space to choose. The only recommendation would be to share
the meals menu in a better way.

My son has been attending this nursery for over 5 months. We are very happy with his care here. The staff are all warm and kind. The app is great at keeping us updated on what he is doing during the day. We can communicate with the staff via message through the app or by phoning them up directly. It
is a pleasure to see my son going happily to his carers in the morning and coming back to me happily at the end of the day. He is thriving and this is partly due to the great care he receives at nursery.

Overall nursery feels a little chaotic, staff are lovely but I feel they could do with having another member of staff to help,would of been nice to receive welcome pack with maybe a little paragraph on each member of staff with their interests and qualifications, also compared with other nursery apps
not much detail given with the meals eg not told what food was served, eg lunch, all, little none, very basic, toilet visits also aren't recorded, on other nursery apps I've also seen a weekly plan outline for each day so we know what children can be expected to be doing that day,eg water play, making monsters, yoga etc. coat pegs with childrens face and name would be nice in hallway too, there is room for this but it seems they just cram bags in bathroom, also be nice to have doors in the toilets to add privacy for children.
Reply from Charlie G, Nursery Support Team at Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Wimbledon, Queens RoadThank you for your review of Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Wimbledon, Queens Road.

Please be assured that children's bags and any other personal items are safely stored at the beginning of the day, and that children's privacy is well-respected in our toilets.

I have two children at Dickie Birds, one in pre school and one in Sparrows. My daughter started from another nursery straight into pre school and my son started in the baby room. I was nervous about my daughter starting in pre school trying to make new friends and get used to a new environment but she
couldn't have been happier - the new experiences like PE and forest school she has absolutely loved. The staff made her feel so welcome and were so caring, the new management team are also so great. They have been amazing and supportive with any issues relating to health / development and great communication. When I drop them off I feel so lucky to know that they are left with staff who genuinely love and care for them. Thank you to all the staff and management at Dickie Birds we couldn't have chosen a better nursery!

My daughter has been attending Dicky Birds since July 2022, and our experience with the nursery has been outstanding. The staff are wonderful warm, caring, and highly engaged, and the range of activities they provide is incredible. My daughter adores the team and often talks about them at home.


The

graduation ceremony for school leavers was beautifully organised and truly memorable, a real testament to the care and thought the nursery puts into everything they do. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dicky Birds to anyone looking for a nurturing, stimulating, and supportive environment for their children.

While I am writing this review on the back of the incredible pre-school graduation ceremony that DB held in July 2025, I want to express how bittersweet it is to be moving on from the wonderful DB family as my child goes off to Reception on September. I have always felt that my child is safe, well-looked
after, encouraged to be brave and try new things (PE at South Park Gardens is one of her favourite activities), and taught to care for her classmates, nature, and animals (the petting zoo and farm animals brought in for the summer party were a nice touch!). We know the staff members by name, and they genuinely care for the children they look after. My child has been at DB since July 2022 when she started in Ducklings, and just this past week was given a cap and gown to wear for her graduation ceremony, which boasted balloons, thoughtful gift bags, a magician, and treats for all. DB knows how to make children and parents feel special - it's a wonderful community. Thank you to everyone.

Management and the rest of the Ducklings Team have been incredibly welcoming for our son who recently started at Dicky Birds. He has settled in very quickly, and he is very happy and enjoys being there. They have great communication, have events where parents can come and hang out with the children
outside of drop off and pick up which is often a busy time and overall is a warm and welcoming environment. I am very pleased we have put our son into Dicky Birds Queens Road.

I have 2 children (1 boy, 1 girl) at Dicky Birds, and also another son who moved on to school, from Dicky Birds, a couple of years' ago. Dicky Birds is a wonderful environment for my children to develop. Their social skills are amazing, and this is down to the great work that the Dicky Birds team
put into making the nursery a very welcoming and enriching environment. Now that it is spring, it is lovely to see how much nursery garden time, and trips to South Park Gardens, that the children are getting. The Manager and the team go above and beyond to ensure the children, and parents, feel very comfortable with Dicky Birds. The recent sessions where parents could attend (eg sensory afternoon/science afternoon) have been great and it is so nice to get an insight into what the children are learning.
Thanks to all of the Dicky Birds staff!

I collect a a little girl from Dicky Birds and every time I do the handover is always amazing. The girls in the baby room are very welcome and nice, they make sure to tell me all her day so I can tell her parents. She really loves to be there, in a normal day it takes at least twenty minutes to come
out because she refuses to leave. The management there is also very easy to talk to and helpful. I'm now pregnant and Dicky Birds will be one of my options.

I have 2 children (1 boy, 1 girl) at Dicky Birds. My son has been attending 3 days a week for 1 year, since 9 months and my eldest has been attending for 3 years. We have had a fantastic experience at Dicky Birds, the staff do an amazing job of keeping the children happy, well cared for and engaged
in learning and playing. The atmosphere in the rooms is happy, warm and loving and the kids very much feel part of the Dicky Birds family! We have especially appreciated the thought and energy that the team put into the activities in the rooms which keep the children engaged and learning. The teams that care for the children day-to-day are dedicated and hard working. I often feel that they are genuinely passionate about what they do, they know my childrens' personalities, what makes them happy and how to help them when they need help. There is a solid focus on learning, development and helping prep for school in the older rooms. They will be very sad when it comes to leave for primary school!

(1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.925
    2. 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 17 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.85
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
