Dicky Birds Dundonald Road, Wimbledon, a GrandirUK Day Nursery

The staff at the nursery are really good with the children, warm, welcoming and very engaging. The management team is very involved and up to date about what's happening with each child. The children have a lot of variety in their activities and we often get very cute and thoughtful art pieces to take home. Some thoughts for further improvement: It would be helpful to get more details about meals eaten (type of food, drinks etc). Some younger children in the senior room don't take part in every activity. It would be lovely to see everyone involved in all activities. Newly toilet trained children would benefit from more information at handover about what they attempted and achieved each day. Children also need extra help with toilet use until they are more comfortable with it. If big decisions are being made about a child's comforter, it would be useful to agree that in advance with the parents, to avoid upset. It would be good to use washable paint, to keep clothes clean.

Communication with parents is seamless, with regular updates and approachable staff. One standout feature is their focus on instilling good values and manners through daily interactions. Dicky Birds Day Nursery @ Dundonald Road is not just childcare, it's a foundation for holistic growth. Highly recommended for parents seeking quality care and development for their little ones!

Amazing nursery with lovely, caring staff who give a warm welcome to my daughter every day. She has learned and developed so much since she joined the nursery and is always so happy to go to see her teachers and friends. I would highly recommend Dick Birds Dundonald Nursery to everyone!

We are always happy to recommend the nursery to other families. We love the sense of community in this nursery, many families have all their siblings in the nursery, and the staff know the children since they are young and have been with them during their early years.

My son has been so happy at this nursery over the past year. The staff are kind, clearly love the children and are incredibly creative and fun. I feel he is in very safe hands at Dicky Birds and would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Staff go the extra mile to ensure children are comfortable in the nursery setting once they join the nursery. As a new parent, I was extremely worried about my girl feeling good in the nursery, and I am impressed by how understanding and supporting the staff have been. Overall, we are happy we choose Dicky Birds, Dundonald Road.

I’ve had both my kids at Dicky Birds, so they are like family. The staff are attentive, and the kids thrive in the environment. Kids love/d going to nursery, and they seem to just have so much fun! From a learning perspective, they follow the standard curriculum, so no complaints there.

This is an amazing nursery, the staff are so caring and really tend to the needs of each individual child. My little boy loves going to nursery and always comes out with a smile, he’s learning loads and developing so quickly thanks to the amazing staff at the nursery!

Very pleased with the nursery. The staff and the managers are caring, warm and tentative! They are so passionate and always excited to keep us posted with our little one’s daily updates. Our son settled in so well and he is very happy! Highly recommended nursery!

I’m also very impressed with the amount of different activities they do. Overall I’m very happy and wish I knew about it earlier.

I think it's a testament to how lovely the staff at the nursery is when my daughter is happy to go into the nursery despite otherwise being very clingy to me. The staff (especially her key person) is enthusiastic and caring, and I appreciate that the staff accommodate our request to manage her eczema while at nursery. The kids have plenty of activities indoors and in their garden, and also occasionally take the kids (under 2 group) out to the park across the road. I also love that most of the time when I drop my child to nursery there is singing and reading going on. I also enjoy the daily verbal updates during pick up and end of the week photo updates. I initially thought the sleeping room was quite small and was worried that my daughter wouldn't nap well, however, was pleased to find out that she is able to nap for hours so am happy it's no longer a concern. I would definitely recommend this nursery! Thank you.

From nearly a year ago when we started the settling in process for our shy baby, to now watching her happily playing when we come to collect her each day, the staff have always been so positive and supportive. We look forward to hearing all the different songs she learns there when she comes home, and it's great to see photos and descriptions online of what she's been up to - my only negative would be that we'd always like to see more photos and videos of her day, but that's more a reflection of us as parents than the nursery!

Wonderful nursery with extremely caring staff and an amazing variety of activities for the kids. Incredibly creative play and well structured day, lots of fun seasonal activities. The food is excellent and the facilities really good. My four year old loves it.

Good overall experience. Continuous improvement will make it excellent. The management is very approachable and strives to build strong relationships with parents and pupils alike. Very flexible approach was demonstrated during the first lockdown - thank you for your support.

Fabulous team all round.

Dicky Birds Nursery Dundonald Road is a wonderful nursery and I would highly recommend it. My son loved going there and all the staff we’re very friendly and caring, the manager is so warm and the teacher in the Puffins room is fantastic and great at teaching and interacting with the children. My son attended since he was a baby and the only reason we left was to move to another area, but we were so sad to leave! Food was great and healthy and being next to the park as well as having a good and entertaining garden were real positives.

Our son has been at Dicky Birds since he was 12 months old and has thrived at the nursery. The staff are all very welcoming and caring and give the children the support they need to develop. They offer a well-rounded experience, with a good mix of different activities. The team and management are also always available to discuss things. We've also been very happy with the meals offered at the nursery, enough to fill up an active 3-year-old!

My 4-year-old and 2-year-old have attended Dicky Birds Dundonald since they were babies and they have had such a wonderful experience. They are always happy to go, the staff are so caring and attentive and they have made great friends. They are fed well and come home having done lots of fun activities, can't fault it. Would recommend, thank you.

My oldest had attended Dicky Birds for nearly 3 years since he was 9 months old. He went through all three rooms from ducklings to woodpeckers. I’ll be honest I found the administration of the waiting list had room for improvement but once he was there being cared for he was a very happy little boy. Not only do the nursery care for they also educate the children to a high standard. They have PE in the park, take trips to the library, they keep the children very engaged. The communication with parents is very good and managers are approachable. We struggled a little when the pandemic struck to continue the interactions to find out how our child was getting on but the nursery worked with us setting up zooms to make sure we knew about our child's progress. We only left because we moved home, we’d highly recommend Dicky Birds.

The nursery has been very friendly, accessible, flexible and transparent about the daily program. They have a good mix of activities and play that are both fun and educational. They did a good job of gently guiding our child (who had a nanny in the years before) into the daily nursery. Our child likes the teachers and has found a lot of friends. Overall highly recommended.
