Review from U K (Mother of Child) published on 8 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter began attending the Eilmar Nursery on September 24 at the age of 14 months. Eilmar has been there for many years. I can now see that she is beginning to enjoy the nursery and becomes bored at home with me. The staff is professional, amiable, qualified and, most importantly, kind. They give daily updates, prompt app updates, daily photos/videos and quarterly progress reports. My daughter is developing great independence and many other skills. The nursery has involved her with numerous activities I would not have been able to do at home, such as messy plays. These activities satisfy her curious little mind. However, Eilmar should consider introducing a child-friendly settling-in process (like many other nurseries), as their current approach is a little hard for any little child. It is highly challenging for any little one to accept the strange environment with unfamiliar people from day one onwards. Due to this approach, my daughter experienced separation anxiety for a short period of time.

Review from S M (Father of Child) published on 6 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has adapted well to the nursery, exceeding my expectations. She was very attached to her mum but now enjoys attending. Big smiles all the way. The staff are fantastic and I'm still amazed by her progress, even though it took about four months (approx). Their regular feedback was invaluable. Regarding the settling-in process, a gentler approach would have been preferable to minimise the child's distress. The abrupt separation caused significant parental stress, as our daughter's adjustment took four months. Unlike other nurseries, we could not remain with her during the initial familiarisation period. A more accommodating and child-centred approach would have facilitated a smoother transition. This is such an important stage in any child's life and can make it an interesting change rather than an unpleasant experience.

Reply from Tina, Nursery Director at Eilmar Montessori Day Nursery

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughtful feedback. I'm delighted to hear that your daughter has adapted so well and is enjoying her time at the nursery-it's wonderful to know she's making such great progress.

Review from Manish T (Father of Child) published on 16 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My eldest son joined Eilmar in 2020 and my youngest has been there since July 2024. Our experience has been nothing short of fantastic, with the nursery manager, extremely supportive of both our kids. My youngest actually doesn't want to leave when I try to collect him, which speaks volumes about how much he enjoys his time there. Would highly recommend this Montessori to anyone.

I sent my eldest to Eilmar (started in Sept 2021) and now my youngest goes here too. The kids have thrived there and always come back very happy. We've had a very smooth experience at the nursery and have always had great interactions with the staff. It's a lovely setting and we are very happy with Eilmar and the experience we've had.
