Review from Lucy P (Mother of Child) published on 23 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I could not be happier with Norfolk Lodge. My daughter has thrived in the environment. Both the staff and facilities have been excellent throughout the past 3 years. The learning support means I can happily progress into the next stage of schooling feeling my daughter is prepared, happy and confident.

Review from H G (Mother of Child) published on 7 March 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Since my daughter started Norfolk Lodge we have seen positive change in her and seen her become more interested in learning and self-care.
The staff in her room are amazingly well spoken, calm and inspirational she loves them and respects them.

We love the extracurricular activities on offer as it saves us time driving around to different classes. The only thing we would say it is rather expensive for 8:45 - 3:30 and to start at 8 when most people need to go to work it is £8 breakfast club we find that very expensive.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Norfolk Lodge for the past two and a half years and we couldn't be happier. She has blossomed and thrived under the care of the staff. I am always impressed with Norfolk Lodge, from the individual attention my daughter gets to her learning, to the lovely learning resources and unique array of fun learning games. We particularly love the outdoor space and commitment to letting the children explore the outside world. We are so happy with Norfolk Lodge and all looking forward to our son starting there soon!

Review from Katie M (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Norfolk Lodge for the past six months and I am extremely happy with all aspect of this nursery. The staff are warm, caring and very experienced in nurturing my daughter's development. I get regular feedback on her progress and conduct and there is always artwork being brought home to show what was done in class. The outside space for the children to play in is vast which is so important at this young age. Overall my daughter absolutely loves her nursery, teachers and friends. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Overall Experience

My son attended the nursery and my daughter still attends and with the kids, we have had such an amazing experience. They both learnt so much whilst still having lots of fun. The teachers, resources and facilities are wonderful. I also like that fresh food is being prepared on the premises which is homemade and nutritious. We highly recommend the nursery.

Review from A C (Mother of Child) published on 11 February 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Fantastic nursery. Staff are brilliant. Very caring towards my little boy. Learning is also brilliant. My son already knows the contents of the world and he's only 3 and a half years old. He thoroughly enjoys going to nursery and through the Montessori learning programme is way ahead of his peers who don't attend Montessori nurseries.

The only let down is that I feel the nursery should be a bit cleaner - this is the only thing.

Overall Experience

My son has been in Norfolk Lodge Montessori Nursery for close to 2 years now. I have seen a big change in him since he joined. His speech, maturity, concentration has improved tremendously. The teachers are very friendly and supportive. Any concerns are dealt with and my son loves every aspect of the nursery. I can't recommend it enough. Thanks to all staff who have supported my little boy all through his stay.

Overall Experience
My daughter loves coming into nursery and can't wait to see the staff, always giving them a cuddle and smile.

The staff send me amazing observations of her time there, proving to me that she's making friends, is cared for well and thoroughly enjoying her time, engaging in creative activities and playing in the garden.

Both my girls have been to this nursery and I have no complaints. Special credit goes to two members of staff who took special care of my girls, one who was amazing with my eldest. I cannot wait for my youngest to join in September.

Review from Gavrav B (Father of Child) published on 20 July 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Excellent nursery. Our child joined the nursery at 11 months and after a year, has progressed and developed very well. The teachers are great, you can see their personal connection with the kids and it is evident they are here because they love what they do. All this comes together very well and is there to see in the happy, confident children in the nursery.

Suzanne Job Title: Nursery Manager
Suzanne
I started at Norfolk Lodge on 1 st April 1996. One term after the nursery had opened and I've been here ever since. I became the Head Directress in June 2016, having spent 20 years in Jade class.

I am very proud to have achieved an Outstanding Ofsted rating in January 2018. We have a wonderful setting and I am honoured to be part of a long-serving, educated team of practitioners that provide our children with excellent care and education.

Both my children had been to a Montessori Nursery and I decided to embark on my Montessori training at Montessori, St Nicholas in Knightsbridge. This was just before being acquired by Bright Horizons.

Deborah Job Title: Deputy Manager
Deborah

Before becoming a Montessori teacher I had originally studied art and design at college and university. After a career change, I decided to follow my heart and become a teacher. I trained at Montessori St Nicholas in Knightsbridge and gained my qualification. I’ve worked in various Montessori settings within London and Hertfordshire.

I started at Norfolk Lodge on 6th September 1996 and I have been here ever since. I became the deputy head in June 2016 alongside my role as a room senior too. I feel we have an amazing setting and I feel privileged to be part of a dedicated team. We are just one big happy family that provides children with excellent care and education, but most of all love and understanding.
