Co-op Childcare Watford South Oxhey

Such a great nursery. My son loves it and he has learned so much here. He has made friends and he loves the key workers. He has been in this nursery since baby room and now he is in pre school. And all the teachers have been brilliant. No complaints here at all.

My son has been attending since the autumn and I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. Having been very reluctant to commit to which days he was meant to attend once I went back to work, the nursery manager has been incredibly understanding and thoughtful in helping me to navigate the process of transition. All the staff are wonderfully caring and nurturing, my little boy settled in so well and has tremendously grown in confidence and made such wonderful progress in all aspects of his learning since he started. The chef's food is excellent and provides a wealth of inspiration for cooking at home, and she always has a kind word for the children and the parents alike. I feel very well informed by the nursery which gives me such reassurance and I can tell how comfortable my son is in this home from home environment. The activities throughout the day all seem very enriching and it's so comforting to know that all the staff make a real effort in getting to know each child! Thank you!

Rudie has been at this nursery since he was 18 months old, and I cannot express how grateful I am for the support we've received. From his settling-in sessions to now in Butterflies, I've always felt involved and reassured. As a quieter child, I worried about how engaged he was. The team arranged a 1-1 with Kodi, who truly listened and went above and beyond, spending extra time nurturing his confidence. The difference has been amazing-he now loves going in, even on Mondays, and has formed sweet friendships. Georgia, Hannah, Kodi, Sheena, Jen, Sarah and the Butterflies team create such a warm, creative environment. Rudie asks for them on days off! He's encouraged, never pressured-even with toilet training. Hand on heart, this nursery is nurturing, safe and everything a mum hopes for. Thank you for everything! We feel so lucky to be part of such a caring, genuine and dedicated nursery family. You have truly helped shape Rudie into the happy, confident little boy he is becoming.

We couldn't ask for a better nursery and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring and supportive place for their child.

I couldn't be happier with the nursery that my son has attended since he was 11 months old (he's nearly 3). The staff do a fantastic job, my son is always happy going in to nursery and they do lots of activities throughout the day. The food prepared in house for the children is delicious and provides a varied diet. The staff do really well in regular updates on the app, which is so useful.

I have two children in different rooms of this nursery and couldn't fault the care in either. They go above and beyond, even when we're out and about they always say hello to the girls and they absolutely LOVE going. Very grateful for all they do :)

We are so grateful for the love and care our little girl receives at nursery. The staff are warm, attentive and truly dedicated, helping her grow in confidence and independence every day. It's wonderful to see her thriving in such a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment. We couldn't ask for a better place for her.

It is obvious from the outset that this nursery is a very welcoming and nurturing environment. My child cannot wait for his days at nursery to come round and has formed amazingly close bonds with all the staff. Each and every staff member I have met make a real effort to get to know each child and are extremely caring and encouraging. They have helped my child grow in confidence and develop key skills whilst also providing myself and my husband with guidance and reassurance around reinforcing what he is learning at home. They are in regular contact both directly and through wider communications to all families so I feel reassured that I am kept updated. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough and am very grateful that my child has been able to experience such a well rounded and caring early years setting.

We feel really lucky to have found this nursery and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it

Our little boy has been in this nursery since September 2025. I can't speak highly enough of the staff and facility. Moreover the positive impact the nursery has had on our son. The staff provide regular feedback throughout the day providing that reassurance a parent needs in the early days. Our son is engaged throughout the day and has already formed a deep bond with many of the staff including the chef! The staff are always attentive, professional and looking out for the children. They recommended we have our son have his eyes tested due to a squint. Turns out he needed glasses which have been a game changer. The nursery is like a home from home for our son who feels so safe and secure he can't wait to get there in the morning. I would have no hesitation recommending to another parent.

My son previously attended this nursery and now my daughter does too, and I've always felt completely reassured and at ease of leaving them there, knowing they are in safe hands. The team truly care about the children as individuals and the progression I have seen since my daughter joined in September is amazing. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I really appreciate everything you do!

Thank you for all you have done in playing a part in his early life.

My girls joined in April 2024, and they couldn't be happier here. The staff are absolutely brilliant and are always willing to go above and beyond to help our children learn and develop. The communication, facilities and and recourses are exceptional and I'd recommend this nursery to anyone in heart beat. A shout out to our Key workers Diana and Lauren who really are caring, and attentive - I have genuine peace of mind that my girls are well looked after when I drop them off each morning.

The most amazing nursery. The staff are outstanding. The care for the babies gives me so much comfort. The chef Maxine cooks wonderful food, the children are so lucky. Our babies key workers Emma and Kacey are so kind and caring, the baby room is managed so well by the lovely Diana. What a wonderful place!

I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. They have been providing excellent care and support for our family, particularly in accommodating our daughter's learning and dietary requirements.

The communication between the staff, management, and external specialists has been seamless, taking all the pressure off our shoulders. Our son had a fantastic start here years ago, and seeing our daughter receive that same level of dedicated care is wonderful.

A truly fantastic environment!

As a returning family, we have always valued the nursery's nurturing atmosphere. However, the support they have provided for our daughter since joined at around 10-months of ago has been a profound source of comfort.

Navigating our daughter's special learning needs felt daunting, but the nursery has shown an incredible commitment to her development. From coordinating specialist training to maintaining seamless communication with the community EYSDC, they have balanced professional guidelines with a genuinely loving environment. This bespoke care even extends to the kitchen; the chef has been remarkably accommodating with her specific feeding requirements, providing us with immense peace of mind.

The entire team is wonderful, and the management's meticulous attention to detail ensures the experience is highly organized and entirely stress-free. If you are looking for a nursery that truly sees and supports every child as an individual, this is it.

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. The staff are incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely care about the children. My son has settled in so well and comes home happy every day, which says everything. It's such a comforting feeling knowing he's in a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment. We're so grateful for all the love and effort the team puts into what they do.

Always so happy to help. Both our children have done so well here. With no local help we needed a nursery we could rely on. From the big stuff through to crazy parent requests they're always so supportive. Thank you x

Both of my girls have gone to this nursery and they are like family. My kids love all the staff there and have learnt so much thanks to them. The staff are caring , supportive and are so welcoming . They update you regularly on how your child is getting on. Nothing is ever too much for them. I will miss them all when my daughter moves to big school. Can't recommend this nursery enough! The best nursery. Also my daughter absolutely loves all the food there, and is always happy trying new things.

I'm very thankful to the whole team for helping my son grow, learn, and develop. He has learned so many things thanks to them, and I couldn't be happier.
