My daughter is so happy at Crafty Wizards New Eltham. She goes in every day smiling and has really grown into herself since being there. Couldn't recommend them enough. I wouldn't be able to mention one member of staff singularly as she loves them all!
My only complaint was the admin process of getting my child to start the nursery felt unnecessarily long. A lot of marketing emails were sent to me as well as forms to fill out for my child. This can be completed by paper forms or online but even when I did it online, management still insisted I fill out the paper form as well even though it was the same as the online form. I ended up calling the nursery a lot as they were not very good at replying to emails.
Now my child is at Crafty Wizards, my child is enjoying it there and I am a happy parent.
All of the staff have been extremely informative, professional and loving.
The team are spell-bound to hear about your positive experience! At Crafty Wizards, we prioritise creating a nurturing environment where children thrive. It's wonderful to see your son's growth and development. Thank you for trusting us with his care and education!We love to make learning magical...
Great nursery really happy my son has been there for about 3 years now. And my son loves it. Fantastic staff great outdoor space and activities excellent location. We especially love the trips to the allotment.
Thank you for your 5 stars in all areas. We enjoy outdoor learning too. At our New Eltham site we have just purchased new flower chalk boards, outdoor mats for our reading area and a lovely reading unit for self access during play (we already have an outdoor library unit to take books home). We...
Fantastic nursery! Accommodating staff, friendly, kind and happy. They have helped my son so much in speech improvement, counting, colours and many more. Honestly, such a great pre-school and the staff are just amazing.
Thank you for your five-star review! We're absolutely spellbound by your kind words. Our accommodating and cheerful staff members are dedicated to creating a magical environment where every 'Crafty Wizard' can thrive. We're delighted to hear you talk about the progress your son has made in speech...
He comes home most days boasting about what he has done.
They take great care of him.
Superb team.
Thank you.

We have received exceptional service from the entire Crafty Wizards team. My son is on Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) and requires one-to-one support. A particular staff member has been the key person for my son and he absolutely loves her. The manager has been instrumental in getting the funding and support required to assist my son. She is proactive, supportive and dedicated. We are lucky to have chosen this certain for my son. It has made a lot of difference. My second son starts there in June 2024. We can’t wait.
Wow, thank you for sprinkling such magical words about Crafty Wizards Pre-School! We're absolutely enchanted to hear about the exceptional service you've experienced with our team and from a Speech and Language Therapist! Did you know that all our pre-schools follow the Early Talk Boost program and...

She enjoys going each day and likes the activity set outside, reading and learning through play.
Always comes home happy.
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. Settling in can be an anxious time for both our new Crafty Wizards and our parents/ carers, but we use a range of strategies as every child and parent/ carer is/are unique! As our Crafty Wizards are unique our activities and planned learning...
I cannot recommend Crafty Wizards enough; from their Kids PlayNow sessions to preschool they have been fantastic with both my child and me. Communication is great and my child comes home excited about the next day. He has flourished since enrolling him.
5 magical stars! The team work hard to make learning magical, from our on-demand hourly bookable slots at Kids PlayNow Club in The Eltham Centre Mon-Sat mornings to our preschools. Our recently inspected Outstanding New Eltham preschool will be over the moon to read this. The team work hard behind...
Excellent setting, my son really enjoyed all the Easter activities on offer and the staff were lovely and welcoming. Recommend! We look forward to growing his seeds and seeing if the sunflower will be taller than him in the summer. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your sparkling review! Our next event is Crafty Cakes Day on 25th May at our Alderwood Children's Centre preschool. We have lots planned during the summer term, keep your eyes out on email, our parent social media group, our parent boards, and our social media.
The support is great and the staff are great with communication and conduct meetings to talk about your child's progress and where they will work towards next.
My son loves it here! The staff are friendly and are so knowledgeable about all of the children. They plan fun, engaging and creative activities that the children love. I have hugely enjoyed visiting on the parent mornings and have seen first-hand how happy the children are. My son has also hugely progressed since being here!
5 sparkling stars all around! It is magic to hear that you enjoyed our recent parent stay and play. We are doing another push for parents and carers to come into preschool to share their hobbies, interests, professions, and cultures or just to read a few stories or sing some songs! We recently had...
The team at Crafty Wizards Avery Hill are amazing, caring, supportive and very understanding to our family, my daughter has achieved so much in herself since 1st starting here and has come on in leaps and bounds. I have made huge recommendations to other families that I know
It is wonderful that you believe our team at Avery Hill to be amazing, supportive and caring and that your daughter has made great progress. The team works hard to make learning magical, did you come to our family activity day on Saturday a couple of weeks ago? We have an Easter holiday club...
All Crafty Wizard staff have gone above and beyond. Could not recommend them enough to friends and family. My son loves going there and has grown really close to them all. Keep up the good work ladies!
Brilliant nursery, my son loves it here. Friendly staff that go above and beyond for the children and parents. I'm so glad I chose this nursery for my son's 15 hours a week. The site is small but has everything the children need.
Thank you for your spell-binding review! Our Bexley Road site has the smallest outdoor space but we make up for it with regular park visits, Forest School trips, allotment trips to a local University and we have even done Hedgehog walks locally. We look forward to a lot more planned activities...
My son is always happy to see the staff and I hear good things at home.
My favourite thing is the social media group with pictures of what he's getting up to throughout the day.
Nothing is too much trouble and communication is spot on.
Very friendly, warm and welcoming.
No faults whatsoever.
'No faults whatsoever'! That is praise indeed! Thank you for taking the time in reviewing us. The team will enjoy reading your review. We never want to be satisfied though! We are always striving to offer the best opportunities for our Crafty Wizards, as interests in the children change, our cohort...
My son has been attending Crafty Wizards for four months and was very unsure at first but the staff did everything to make him feel comfortable (as well as me). I love how they change the toys every day and update photos on social media so I can show him what is out every day. The staff are so helpful and friendly and the regular feedback on my child's development is lovely. Would highly recommend.
4 months is early days, thank you for already reviewing us and giving us 5 stars in all areas. We are always planning around the interests and needs of our Crafty Wizards, no day is ever the same at Crafty Wizards. We look forward to introducing more magic to you and your son. Coming up is our Feb...
Outstanding nursery! Staff have gone above and beyond to help my son who needs additional support. Very friendly and very patient with him. They are great with communicating with me about how he has been each day etc. So glad I chose to move him to Crafty Wizards.
Outstanding! Thank you. Everything is about communication, we focus on developing early communication with our Crafty Wizards and aim to have open communication with parents, outside agencies and between our staff team to provide the best opportunities for all. Our team has daily morning briefings...
My son attended Crafty Wizards for 3 years and now my 3-year-old daughter has attended for the past year. She enjoys her time there with varied activities each session and she has a great relationship with her key workers. I would highly recommend CW.
