Crafty Wizards is an outstanding nursery. My son started in September 2017 and had only ever been left with family before attending this nursery. Within 2 weeks he was asking to go to nursery, running in smiling and was so excited to tell me what he had done that morning. The staff are absolutely amazing
always put my mind at ease when he was upset. They care for the children like their own and go above and beyond to help them settle in no time.


They offer a huge range of activities each day, he loves all the songs they sing on the carpet, he is always singing them at home, couldn't ask for a better setting for my son!!! Thank you for everything you do!!!


The Facebook page is amazing can see throughout the morning what they are up to and the Wizards quill they fill in each day helps to keep us up to date with what my son has done amazingly that day!!!! Thank you once again, Crafty Wizards!!!!!

Reply from Matthew Byrne, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamExcellent in all areas! We really do understand how it can be difficult to leave your child with someone else for the first time. Thank you for putting your trust in Crafty Wizards Pre-School. We think it important to offer professional development for our staff throughout the year and it's great to hear that you and your son have been supported well. It's good to hear that you feel that our Facebook Page has been helpful, have your tried posting significant things that your son has done at home onto our Parent Portal to share with his key person? Please speak to a member of staff for more information. We have lots of sparkle coming up, we have just had a 'Wizarding Week' and will shortly have a our Book Week. Thank you for taking the time to write this review.

In the past, I had a very bad experience with a nursery but Crafty Wizards Pre-School has shown me I can trust in childcare professionals to look after my child whilst I'm at work. They are always doing fun alternate things with my son, and he loves going there, although at first, he found the separation
hard, they comforted him and made him feel welcome. Couldn't ask for better.
Reply from Matthew Byrne, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamThank you for your magical review. We work hard to provide opportunities for fun, creativity and learning with support, challenge and care. We have recently had a staff meeting where we focused on enlivening story-telling, outdoor play, circle time and planning to our unique 'Crafty Wizards'. Look out for our Book Week next term! Thank you for taking the time in writing this review.

My 2 and half-year-old son started just a couple of weeks ago. Had a few tears at first but the staff were excellent and in just a few sessions he was running on with open arms to say hello and cuddle staff!
So lovely and reassuring, as a parent, to know that he is comforted, trusts and thoroughly
enjoys his time at Crafty Wizards.
He's learnt such a lot speech wise, socially and musically. Couldn't ask for anything else.

Crafty Wizards is an outstanding nursery.
I have had experience with other nurseries and they don't even come close to how exceptional Crafty Wizards is.
Their parent/key worker communication is fantastic.
They provide so much information on what they are doing whether it's through letters, their
private facebook group or conversation.
All of the staff members are so friendly and approachable.
It's obvious they genuinely care for the children.
My daughter is very happy there and doing so well.
I couldn't ask for anything more.

Crafty Wizards Pre-School is an exceptional preschool that has cared, nurtured, supported and educated both of my children for many years. I feel extremely grateful to the wonderful staff and support workers for the care and attention they have provided to my children. They go above and beyond to
ensure the children are happy and healthy. My eldest son has benefitted considerably from attending this pre-school both in terms of his social interaction/social awareness and his academic ability. My youngest son continues to attend the pre-school and is a very happy, sociable and independent little boy which is in large thanks to the team at Crafty Wizards. My son loves it at his 'school' and is always happy to go. He runs in with a smile on his face before I have even had a chance to put his coat away which to me, says it all!
Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamThank you for your spell-binding comments! We are all proud to have cared for both your children at Crafty Wizards. It has been a pleasure to see them grow and progress. We do focus on early communication as a T.I.C (Together In Communication) lead setting for Royal Greenwich. We are looking forward to our new term ahead, look out for new initiatives happening in the next couple of terms including Rainbow Day and take home learning bags. Please let us know how we can get an 'excellent' for food and ICT. Our snack table offers locally sourced fruits and vegetables, milk and water. Unfortunately due to restrictions on our building we can not offer hot foods. We offer our Crafty Wizards ICT opportunities with our interactive whiteboards, tablets, cause and effect toys along with role play opportunities with phones, keyboards, kitchen equipment, along with imaginative play opportunities. Please do help us with ideas if you can. Thank you for taking the time to write your lovely comments.

My second child is currently attending Crafty Wizards and is progressing just as well as the first.


The varied activities and the combination of play and learning provide a really solid basis for progression to primary school.


I have no reservation in recommending this nursery to others.

Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamExcellent in all areas! Thank you for your review. It is great to hear that you feel that your Crafty Wizards have progressed well.

My son has recently started at Crafty Wizards. We really agonised over where to send him. In the end, he made the choice as he loved it from the moment he walked in. He hasn't looked back! I am delighted to have found somewhere that is genuinely nurturing and committed to the children all learning in
a safe, fun, creative, inclusive space. The staff have made the first few weeks, the first time he has been away from me, really easy and I look forward to next term.
Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamThank you for your warm words, it is great to hear that your Crafty Wizard settled in well. If you need any support after the holidays let us know and we can send you another social story, set up a transitional object and put out some of his favourite toys. Thank you again for taking the time to write this positive review for Crafty Wizards Pre-School.

This is a wonderful learning place for my son and I really am happy with all the facilities and learning and care which my son gets there. Since my son has previously attended various other learning centres I can judge Crafty Wizards to be one amongst the best with a focus on overall learning of a child.
The attention to detail on each child is brilliant.

My son started at Crafty Wizards in September. He was only ever used to me so was very worried how he would settle. The staff at Crafty Wizards made the separation as gentle as possible. My son now looks forward to his day at Crafty Wizards and speaks happily of his day, Sings songs from Circle Time
and copies the actions of 'What's in the hat '. When I ask my son who his friends are at Crafty Wizards, he will tell me the staff names....this shows the special bond the staff have with the children here. Couldn't be happier with the huge variety of resources which accommodate the EYFS.
Thank you.
Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamExcellent in all areas! Thank you for your magical review! We work hard forming secure attachments with our Crafty Wizards and got Outstanding for well-being for our children. We are introducing a Snuffle Station for children to access a comfort teddy, tissues and wet wipes to aid their independence and to encourage them to manage their emotions.

My three year old has been attending here 4 days a week for 4 months. Wonderful preschool with amazing staff. Fantastic communication between nursery and home and my little boy is thriving here. Wish I'd found it sooner, I can't recommend it highly enough.
Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamExcellent in all areas! It's magic to hear how happy you both feel at Crafty Wizards Pre-School. Management work had to offer a range of ways to communicate and promote good communication with staff. Have you tried our Parent Zone app yet? Also, our Stay and Play session is coming up this half term and focuses on literacy, please do come if you can to get some ideas for home. We are also starting some home learning sacks this half term that children will get the opportunity to take home, as well as our usual key person, teddy and diary and our Chatterbox.

Since my daughter has been at Crafty Wizards she has come along so well with her talking etc and every time I pick her up she loves telling me what she has done ie painting, water garden, drawing, playing with babies and circle time. I'm so glad that I put her In Crafty Wizards when I did, thank you

Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamExcellent all round! Thank you very much for your review. The team will be happy that your daughter continues to enjoy our range of inspiring activities. We do work closely with outside agencies and use BSL (British Sign Language Cards) to support early communication at activities along with Small Talk Card activities, I-Can activities, Makaton signing and symbols. Our Magic Circle Time is a great time when early communication is focused on. Our '"What's in the Wizards Hat Time" is very popular. We are trailing a new Wizarding Quill to give you a more personalised update of your Crafty Wizards goings on at Pre-School. Thank you again.

Our son has been attending Crafty Wizards for almost a year now for two mornings a week. He absolutely loves going and is always so excited when he arrives there for his session. He had just turned 2 when he first started to attend and he was not speaking despite all our efforts. Within 3 weeks of joining
he had gained confidence among his peers and began to use words.
All the staff are fantastic there and helped us immensely with his development and gave us tips and exercises to do at home so that we were consistent with them on our approach. We felt confident that he was in the right place from the very start.
His younger brother sometimes comes along when we collect our Son from Crafty Wizards and he wants to join in the fun too, we think he'll also take no time in adjusting when it's time for him to join as the staff are so attentive and caring to the individual child's needs.
Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamThank you for your kind words. We are glad that our tips and activities for the home have helped in the continued progress that your son makes. It is great to hear that your younger son is enthused by our activities also. Please let us know how we can get an 'excellent' from you with regards to activities, we are open to all feedback, please bring up any ideas at our parent committee. Also please do ask management about the ICT opportunities we provide, we have an interactive whiteboard that the children access daily, tablets that children can access, leap frog toys and role play equipment that comes under the ICT sections of the EYFS such as telephones, keyboards, kettles, oven, cause and effect toys and objects that represent ICT equipment.

My son has grown in confidence since joining Crafty Wizards. He has learnt so many things I thought he had no idea of. The staff are excellent at listening to the needs of each child.


My son has been helped with learning colours so quickly, in a matter of weeks! He was also very well supported during

potty training.


The standard of learning is very good as well as arranging excellent activities for the children.

Reply from Matthew, Director at Crafty Wizards Nursery - New ElthamThank you for your review. Our staff do try hard to offer personalised learning opportunities and to build strong attachments with our Crafty Wizards. Our daily routine which includes Magic Circle Time promotes this relationship. Thank you for your 'Excellent' for activities and learning, it is due to a great team of staff ad management that ensures that these opportunities are well planned for. We have a contracted cleaner that cleans our premise and all toys are cleaned on a rota (or earlier if needed), along with a twice daily risk assessment and toilet checks throughout the day to ensure the pre-school is as clean as possible despite out love for messy play! Please so let us know by e-mail, face to face or at our regular parent committee in how we can improve your view on the 'good', we strive for excellence at Crafty Wizards. Thank you for your time.

Brilliant at letting my daughter excel to her full level by moving her up to groups with older children which I think is amazing. They allow the children to focus on different aspects of learning through phonics, show and tell time, group activities. My daughter would go every day if she could, there
are always a number of activities to get involved with each day that helps excel the senses.

My son has been attending Crafty Wizards since September 2016.


Since joining he has completely excelled in his speech, listening skills and his confidence in independent tasks. I can't praise Crafty Wizards enough, as they are extremely hard working, caring and attentive to your child's needs.

From day one they made my son feel like he was in his second home as he settled straight away and absolutely loves every minute he is here. The Manager and her team should feel very proud as they do such a fantastic job and I couldn't be happier knowing my son is in safe hands!

(1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
