My daughter has developed so much since going here. She enjoys it a lot. Staff are very friendly. Would like my daughter to be outside more. Overall, an amazing experience.

Review from A G (Mother of Child) published on 8 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with this nursery. My daughter absolutely loves going, and it shows in the photos we receive-she's always smiling and fully engaged in the activities. The staff create such a nurturing and stimulating environment, and it's clear how much she's learning and growing each week. She's already picked up so many new skills, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing she's in such caring hands. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, happy, and enriching place for their child.

Overall Experience

Absolutely amazing nursery!

My youngest son started over a year ago after a VERY bad experience with another local nursery. We both went to look round and my son was instantly loved it.

His settling in session arrived and my son went in without any issues (something completely unheard of due to past experience)

The rest is history.

Both of my sons throughly enjoy going to nursery and always have so much fun. The staff are kind and brilliant teachers/role models. The food is healthy and includes lots of variety. During meal and snack times the children are encouraged to pour their own drinks and serve up their own food. The activities and interaction my children both have amazing! They spend lots of time out doors in the garden and doing activist outside. They have their own mud kitchen and forest school area. The boys have learnt so much and I honestly could go on all day. The thing that I love the most is I feel safe leaving my children there and my sons are happy to go in.

Review from Sarah D (Mother of Child) published on 26 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been attending Highgate since the end of January 2025 - before going she was a very shy and timid one year old and we were very apprehensive about how she'd get on.
Fast forward a few months and she's a confident and outgoing little girl who's come on leaps and bounds in such a short space of time - all credit to this nursery.
The staff in the Baby Room have been fantastic with her. They gave her the time and understanding that she needed to settle in initially and since, they continue to be very attentive and encouraging.
They offer plenty of activities for the babies every day and it's lovely to see updates and photos on their app. They also take their time during handover and provide an overview of their day via a personal diary which is very handy.
We are very glad we chose Highgate and we will continue to use them, our youngest daughter will hopefully be starting there next year.

I highly recommend this nursery and wouldn't go anywhere else.

Review from Alice P (Mother of Child) published on 22 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Having viewed other nurseries there's no comparison. We've moved further away since our daughter started, and rather than moving to a closer nursery we have stuck with highate because it's that good. The outdoor play is excellent, there is a mix of structured and independent play. The app is a great way of seeing how happy the children are which puts your mind at ease. The staff were amazing whilst we were navigating potty training. My daughters speech/motor skills/imaginative play has come on leaps and bounds since she has been there. She has never ever made a fuss about going inside in the morning because she loves it, and always comes out in a good mood. The general space and seperate rooms offer a lot more than I've seen in other nurseries. And the safety seems better then other nurseries we have seen. She always eats well there which also gives us peace of mind.

My son has attended Highgate Day Nursery for 3 years and really enjoys his time at nursery. He has made good friends. His development has been good with structured opportunities for learning through play. Things seem to be improving with some investment recently. The outside spaces are great.

Overall Experience

Excellent nursery with lovely staff! My two children go there and have been going there for over a year, they absolutely love it and we've never had an issue. Verbal feedback on the children's day is given on handover, with photos updated on the app every week. It's lovely to see what the kids get up to. Great menu, is fantastic with allergies and has a range of educational activities planned every term.

Overall Experience
Our daughter has been in Highgate now since November 2023 and she has settled in so well thanks to the friendly staff, engaging activities and inviting environment.

As for all parents, the prospect of leaving her with new people was at first daunting but the team were patient and supportive and I couldn't recommend the nursery highly enough.

Thank you for your fabulous 5-star review. Feedback is so important to us as a team. Jayne

Overall Experience
My daughter has been in the nursery for over a year and she loves it.
I didn't plan on sending my daughter to Nursery but our childcare plans changed. I was really nervous and upset about having to send her to Nursery but it was the best decision. The Nursery staff were very welcoming from day one. They put me at ease. They have been amazing with my daughter.

There are always activities. She is always learning. She has come on brilliantly since attending.

Overall Experience

My two daughters have been attending Highgate Day Nursery since September 2023. Both absolutely love their time there and are eager to tell me about their day and the activities they have been doing. I am always impressed with the healthy and varied menu available, the staff are all friendly, helpful and welcoming and a lot of effort is paid to ensuring there are fun activities and parties throughout the year to celebrate holidays and events. I would happily recommend it to other parents. Mum of 2 girls (3 and 1).

Review from Leanne B (Mother of Child) published on 15 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have had three children who have attended Highgate. My eldest started in 2017 and my youngest still attends their preschool one day a week.
I have always felt extremely happy and confident leaving my children there. They come home happy, often with pictures they have drawn or painted and with stories about what they have been up to.

The staff are friendly, approachable and I feel they go above and beyond for the children in their care. The staff always feedback on pick-up, and any messages that have come from the school (as they pick my daughter up from school nursery) are always passed on. I would recommend it to anyone.

Review from Carley W (Mother of Child) published on 13 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started at Highgate when he was 9 months old. We viewed a range of different nurseries before registering with Highgate but I knew as soon as I saw Highgate that I didn’t want him to go anywhere but there! It has such a lovely atmosphere, all the staff are so lovely, friendly and professional.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery at Highgate, when we get out of the car in the carpark and he knows he’s there he gets so happy and excited to go in, it’s lovely to see. The staff went above and beyond to put my mind at ease knowing that he was happy there when he first started, they were happy for me to phone as many times as I wanted during his first few weeks and they also kept me updated with pictures via the app.

Absolutely amazing nursery and would recommend to anyone. I know I can go to work with no worries knowing my little one is happy and cared for to the best possible standard with all the staff at Highgate.

Overall Experience

My son has been going to Highgate since July 2023 and started when he was 11 months old. He is now 18 months old and really has come on so much since going. The staff are all so friendly and are fantastic. The updates at pick-up are great as well as the daily write-ups provided. I love looking at the photos of what he has got up to on the app. Would highly recommend this nursery. He smiles going in and smiles coming out!

Highly recommend Highgate! My little girl has been going since October 2023. On first viewing the nursery we knew this would be the nursery for us, so welcoming, and clean. The day-to-day updates via the app are brilliant as you’re kept in the loop on what your child has been doing that day. There’s not a bad word I can say

My little girl has been attending Highgate since just before her 1st birthday. I have been really happy with the care provided. The staff are wonderful with the children. The environment and learning opportunities are of a high standard.

I would highly recommend this nursery. The app used by Highgate provides parents with valuable insight into their little ones' day.
