We're so pleased that you value the kindness, friendliness and activities we provide for the children. Thank you again for your support and being a part of Monkey Puzzle Olympia.
We are extremely grateful for this nursery and were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of care provided. Shivani, the nursery manager is extremely kind, helpful and understanding. She truly did her best to accommodate our schedule and support our family. Gaelle, the manager of the baby room is wonderful, very caring and highly professional. Her team is also lovely and dedicated. We completely trusted them, and we could see our daughter was genuinely happy there. The staff quickly understood what our daughter enjoys and immediately offered her activities she loves, such as playing with bubbles. It was clear they pay close attention to her. The nursery feels fresh and welcoming. We highly recommend this nursery!
I'm delighted to hear that you felt so well supported by Shivani, Gaelle and the baby room team. Building trusting relationships with families and getting to know each child's individual...
Outstanding nursery, amazing staff and even better since the renovation!.. My son is 2 next week and has come such a long way in a year at the nursery. Thank you, guys, for making my son feel like he is at home..
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're thrilled to hear how happy your son has been with us and to see how much he has developed over the past year.

Amazing nursery for our daughter, the manager and her team are very friendly, helpful and caring both to us as parents but more so to the children. Have seen massive improvements in the nursery since we joined, and very happy we chose Monkey Puzzle.

Lovely nursery, super caring staff. My baby is still settling in but I've hugely appreciated how supportive and flexible everyone has been - from rocking him to sleep, to always letting me know if he's unsettled. Excellent communication - every member of staff I've encountered clearly cares about the children, creating a lovely nurturing environment. My baby has built strong bonds with his carers and I trust he's in very good hands!
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience with us. We know how important the settling-in period is, especially for our youngest children, so it's lovely to hear that you've felt supported and reassured throughout.
Our team works hard to build strong, trusting...
Very friendly staff and very accommodating of our ever-changing schedule. The kids always seem to be having a brilliant time and given how much our child eats at the nursery, the food must be better than at home.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are so pleased to hear your feedback and how much your little one enjoys their meals at nursery!
The staff at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery West Kensington are caring, patient and truly dedicated to the children's. Our child is happy, learning a lot and excited to go every day to meet his teachers and friends!
Thank you for your lovely review, we look forward to continuing to watch your son flourish within our care.
We are truly grateful for the wonderful care and support the nursery has provided for our child over more than 1.5 year. Potty training was tough at first, but the patient and compassionate staff was always there to encourage him, leading to noticeable progress in recent months. We've noticed significiant improvements over the last six months thanks to the updated equipment and the stability of the staff. It's clear that the nursery is commited to creating a nurturing and engaging environment for the children. Our son has thrived, forming friendships and enjoying his days. We recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring environment for little ones.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate your feedback and your acknowledgement of the changes we have been making to make Monkey Puzzle West Kensington even better!
One area where we would appreciate some improvement is in the communication about the activities and the learning program. It would be helpful to have more detailed information on what the children are doing and how these activities support their development.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that your son has settled in well and that you can see the progress he is making. Supporting children through their early stages of integration is very important to us, and it is rewarding to know that you feel reassured...
Our daughter started nursery 18 months ago in the Baby Room and recently moved up to the Toddler Room - both teams have provided amazing care and attention, and it's clear how much they genuinely enjoy working with the children. The activities are creative and thoughtfully planned, and we really appreciate the regular updates and photos to see what the children get up to each day.
The management team is also very friendly and accommodating, and has massively improved its staff retention since beginning of the year which has made a big difference.
Thank you to the entire Monkey Puzzle team for the amazing care and support you provide to our children every day!
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear about your positive experience from the Baby Room through to the Toddler Room, and it's lovely to know your daughter has thrived with the care and creativity of our team. We're especially pleased that the regular updates and...

My feedback is with regards to the Babies room which my son attended between April 2024 and July 2025 (when turning 2) - the room leader and all the staff are absolutely brilliant and made my son feel very at ease and happy to go to nursery every day. They offer great activities, respect the routine, the room is great (and finally equipped with air con for hot days) and the outdoor space is amazing. With regards to management, they have a wonderful manager who communicates openly and runs the setting very smoothly. Whilst she is on mat leave her management team have stepped in and doing an excellent job. Finally, the Monkey Puzzle nurseries management team are highly qualified and lovely to be dealing with. I can only recommend the nursery for all babies to be taken care of.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We're so glad to hear how happy your son was in the Babies room. The whole team will be thrilled to know they made such a positive impact. It's lovely to hear your kind words about the room, the activities, and the care from both the staff and management. We really appreciate your support and recommendation!
From our settling in day to now, I have seen a huge change in my son, becoming more social with other children and more confident. He absolutely adores his key worker and is getting comfortable with others in the nursery each day too. Today was the first day I had no tears at handover from him and it just shows how he is well looked after and thought of at the nursery.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're so glad to hear your son has settled in well and is growing in confidence each day. It's been a pleasure to watch him become more social and happy in the nursery, and we're especially touched by the bond he's formed with his key worker. We're grateful for your trust and are always here to support you and your family.
My daughter absolutely loves Monkey Puzzle West Kensington. The staff and management team are brilliant, the warmest and friendliest people who make drop off and pick up such a delight each day. They are diligent, keep us updated the right amount and we feel very confident with their care and safe guarding. Our daughter attends 5 days a week and comes home each day full of smiles. Since starting in the baby room, we've been impressed with her development, new skills learnt each day, and the supportiveness of the staff with the babies (thank you). It is a very happy nursery and we're so pleased that we chose it after such careful consideration of so many others - we would highly, highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear how happy your daughter is at Monkey Puzzle West Kensington. It means the world to our team to know that you feel confident in the care and support we provide. Watching her grow and thrive each day is a joy, and we're so grateful you chose us.

We have both our children at Monkey Puzzle West Kensington and it has been great! The staff are wonderful, and the place has such a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. From the moment we arrive for drop-offs-with the warmest of welcomes-to the afternoon pick-ups, it's an excellent experience. Both kids absolutely love it there, and all the guidance and attention they receive really shows in their development. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone looking for a daytime home for their little ones.
Thank you so much for your review and kind words regarding yours and your children's experience at Monkey Puzzle West Kensington. We really appreciate and look forward to seeing your little ones grow with us.
My daughter started in Nov 2024. She is developing well and improving her language, skills and confidence. All staff members including management team are excellent and well trained, easy to reach. Overall I am very happy that my daughter started in Monkey Puzzle day nursery.
Thank your for your review, we really appreciate your kind words about yours and your daughters experience with us. We look forward to continuing to watch her grow!
My son attends this nursery, as did his sister before him. The current staff are wonderful, striking a good balance of being warm and loving with clear boundaries on behaviour. My son's development is coming on in leaps and bounds, with better socialisation and ability to play as a group than peers we meet in the playground. Communication by the nursery with us on key issues is great, and I feel very well supported with our current endeavour to potty train. The space is light and airy, with two outside areas for outdoor play and there are engaging activities set up every morning when I drop my son off.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear both your children have had such positive experiences with us. It's lovely to know you feel supported, especially during key milestones like potty training. We truly value your trust and continued support!
My child loves attending this nursery! The staff are incredibly caring, attentive, and create a warm, nurturing environment. The activities are engaging, and I've seen great progress in my child's development. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe and supportive place for their little one!
Thank you so much for leaving a review for Monkey Puzzle West Kensington. We're delighted to hear that your little one loves attending!
My three-year-old daughter has been attending Monkey Puzzle West Kensington for over a year and we are very happy with her progress. She always comes home very happy and full of stories about her friends and the interesting things she has been doing. The updates through the app are great as they give a great insight into her day and we can chat about it with her in the evening. The staff are always friendly and communicative with us the parents and they are so caring and gentle with the children. Our son is joining the baby's room in January which is lovely and bright full of fun things to play with so we're very happy about the fun days ahead he will have there.
Thank you so much for leaving us your feedback. We're delighted that your daughter is enjoying her time at Monkey Puzzle West Kensington, the children and staff certainly have a lot of fun! We're sure your little one will have just as much fun in our baby room!
