Really positive start for our son, he was helped to settle and adapt really quickly. Hugely welcoming staff who seem to have a great camaraderie and spirit compared to other nurseries. Already been a big leap forward in his speech and understanding.

My son absolutely loves going to nursery and always comes home with a smile on his face. The staff are extremely friendly and he always talks about doing things with them during the day as well as playing with his friends. The most important thing for me is that my son is happy and well looked after. I really feel that the staff at the Gingerbread House care for and know my son well.
My daughter has been at the Gingerbread House since she was 1, she’s now almost 4 years old. We’ve experienced the baby room, Toddler and now pre-School room. She has had a very good experience there so far and the staff are great. They're all very helpful ladies and really do take good care of...
My daughter has been at the Gingerbread House since she was 1, she’s now almost 4 years old. We’ve experienced the baby room, Toddler and now pre-School room. She has had a very good experience there so far and the staff are great. They're all very helpful ladies and really do take good care of the kids there. I would definitely recommend the nursery, not only because my daughter is so happy there but also the proximity of Purley Oaks and Sanderstead stations.

Our son is a little sensitive and they have been incredibly patient, nurturing and attentive. They look after him very well and he is starting to really enjoy going there thanks to the efforts of the staff (not just his dedicated staff but the whole team).
The setting is lovely with plenty of lovely wooden toys and messy play areas.

My son has been attending Gingerbread House for just over 2 years now and absolutely loves it. He talks affectionately about staff members and always has lots of stories to tell about other children. Staff have always collaboratively worked with us in caring for my son and have been quick to respond to emails/phone calls. I would highly recommend this Gingerbread House Day Nursery.
Both my children love going to Gingerbread House. They are happy there and have learned so much. The nursery has made them much more independent and confident. For them, it really is a home away from home - where they can be themselves, and learn and develop, in a safe and welcoming environment....
The nursery has recently been taken over which has resulted in a number of positive developments. One particular change is a much more healthy and nutritious menu. I really like that the children are encouraged to try new things.
One area of improvement would be the development of the outdoor space which I believe is on the management’s agenda.
The nursery has been extremely accommodating over our needs and always prompt with emails. My son has an absolute liking for the key workers and despite speaking two languages, they accommodated him very well.
