He's now happier, more confident, & never stops chatting!! We are forever grateful to the staff for helping him grow & learn.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Sarah. We are delighted to hear how much your son has grown in confidence and communication since joining our nursery. It has been a pleasure to support his development, and we're so proud of the progress he has made.
They have the right amount of children which is great for the kids. Our son went there and his little sister is currently there and has been there for more than 18 months and she loves it.
Thank you for your lovely review and for entrusting us with the care of both your children.
We are delighted to hear that your son enjoyed his time at our nursery and that your daughter continues to thrive with us after more than 18 months. Knowing that she loves coming to nursery is wonderful...
My son is two years old and has been at Sunhill for over a year now. Its a very small and friendly nursery. The staff are wonderful and he's been looked after very well in the baby room. I feel very comfortable leaving him with the staff who are very warm and engaging. They take all the children out for a walk in the local area. I noticed how my son always holds my hand when we walk on the pavement, which has been great. They have also helped him develop other skills such as tidying up and playing well with other children well as well as his sounds. There is a strong routine that makes the children feel safe and secure. The leadership team are fantastic and very flexible and helpful. I've found this a great nursery, and there was not a wait time like many of the nurseries in Peckham.
We are delighted to read how well your son has developed during his time at our nursery and that you feel so comfortable and reassured by the care he receives.
We have been very happy with Sunhill. My eldest daughter has attended for over a year. She is happy, well looked after and has learnt lots of new skills. The staff know all the children by name and there seems to be very low staff turnover (a very good sign!) I feel very comfortable leaving her in their hands. They take all the children out for a walk in the local area twice a day which in my opinion can be better than an outdoor space as she is more streetwise and exhausted from all the walking. They regularly take them to parks and the library, have external sports and Spanish teachers once a week. I feel like the activities are varied and yet there is a strong routine that makes the children feel safe and secure. I know the managers are working on better parent communication and there is a newsletter once a week. My younger daughter will start there next month.
Creating a nurturing environment with engaging activities is so important to us, so it's wonderful to know it's had a positive impact. We really appreciate your recommendation!"
While there isn't an accessible outside play area they take my child out twice daily and have an indoor play area. The chef provides a wide variety of cooked and cold meals for the children with many flavours and fresh ingredients.
Thank you for your wonderful review! It means a lot to us that you appreciate our team's dedication, as well as the activities and meals we provide. We're delighted to hear how well your child has settled and progressed in our care, as we take great pride in creating a warm and nurturing environment.
Thanks to the nursery managers for creating a great environment at Sunhill Peckham. Our daughter looks forward to attending every day and always comes home with a smile. We appreciate the friendly and honest nursery managers.
We aim to provide a happy, home-from-home environment for the children in our care, and it is wonderful to read how your daughter enjoys her time in our setting. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
He was also not very sociable in general before but has completely transformed since he's been going there. He is a lot more friendly and cheerful with all the kids and adults he meets (not just in the nursery). The staff are extremely competent and communicative, also the manager is doing a fantastic job including putting on extra events for the kids and parents.
There isn't an outside space as such on-site but this isn't a drawback as they regularly take the kids out for walks to various local parks. He loves all the food there too which is a massive bonus as sometimes he is a bit fussy at home. I can wholeheartedly recommend this nursery with no reservations.
It is lovely to read how your son's social skills and confidence have developed since joining our setting and that you are both enjoying the activities and events. Thank you for taking the time to recommend our nursery.
Fantastic daycare facilities! My son loves attending the nursery. The introduction process was quick and easy, and the settling sessions made my child feel right at home! My son looks forward to coming to nursery every day! Lovely place and very local.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We are so pleased to read how well your son has settled and enjoys nursery life.
The staff need better communication within the team, once you tell a staff member important information about your child and request for this to be passed on it never is. They also do not take the afternoon children in the baby room outside for fresh air, one of the staff members told me this herself and I was extremely displeased. When I would ask what my daughter had eaten, I was told that they don’t give the babies food but snacks in the afternoon but when speaking to another staff member, I was told the opposite. Communication is terrible at this nursery and needs to be worked on.
Our goal is to ensure that important information is consistently shared and passed on to all staff members involved in your child's care. We are committed to making...
Very homely atmosphere for children. My child is now 15 months old, and he learned a lot of skills from the nursery since he started. The staff are lovely and treat the babies like their own. We are very happy we found this nursery; it's a "home away from home" for our child. Very grateful to all the staff for looking after our child. You are all wonderful; you should all be proud of what you do for the children.
Thank you so much for your review; we really appreciate it!
Excellent service.
My girl is very happy with her teachers - every day great performance in learning.
They have taught her to share, to count, to know all the colours.
Very good nursery.
Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that your little one is happy and thriving at our nursery. Our dedicated teachers take pride in providing excellent service and ensuring a positive learning experience. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to continuing to support your child's growth and development.
Lovely staff and nurturing to the children, excellent baby room. The facilities are great, with excellent learning tools and toys for the children. No outside space, but the local parks are utilised on a regular basis.
Thank you for your review and for taking the time to write it; we really appreciate it!
An excellent nursery and lovely staff. Our son is 18 months and absolutely loves it; he runs in through the door every morning without looking back! The staff really care and take the time to get to know the child. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you for your review; we really appreciate it!
The weekly updates and daily updates are great, plus I feel supported in my child’s development both in pre-school and at home. I’m confident my child will be ready for school because of the amazing support and guidance received by the Sunhill team.
Thank you for your review; we really appreciate it! School readiness is so important to us, and we are delighted to hear how well your child has developed during their time at nursery!
Unclear in regards to payment. I often explained my concern about my son's meals, but I had no response. My son is happy with the carers and I am satisfied with his learning, honestly. I was upset once I had to pay ten pounds for ten minutes late, even if I collect my son always later than the drop-off time. I lost lots of money every month as there was a misunderstanding at the time of signing the contract.
Thank you for your feedback. We do have a late charge which is stipulated in our Terms & Conditions. This charge is in place as we have to ensure the nursery is staffed correctly for additional children who are being collected late, often resulting in staff members staying after their working hours. I hope that you understand. Thank you again for your feedback.
My son has attended this nursery since he was one, and we all love it. He skips in, in the mornings, and every day he tells us he has had a great day. The staff are amazing - it really feels like they care about the kids, and they go above and beyond. We were initially unsure because of the lack of outdoor space, but they do take the kids out regularly to local parks or for walks. My son especially loves the trips to the train station and the Chinese supermarket.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review! We are delighted to hear how well your son has settled!
Both my children have attended Sunhill and are very happy there. The staff greet the children with happy smiling faces every morning, and they are so happy to go in every morning. The staff are extremely caring, understanding and loving toward the children. We are enjoying the use of the app and seeing a little more about their days. The only downside for us is there is no outside space on site, but the team do their best to take the children outside every day, and they are creative with their activities.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your comments! We really appreciate it!
The team have moved to update via a parent app, and we love seeing the updates on what the children are getting up to - would love to see more!
Admin and communication to parents have been pretty good - we were immediately welcomed when our childminder had to quit quite suddenly due to the impact of Covid, and Sunhill were very accomodating and reassuring in settling my daughter in.
The curriculum and way of learning are varied, and I particularly like that they take into account the different cultures and hobbies of the children to ensure things are interesting and fun.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your positive comments!
We are always kept well informed of daily activities, and the staff are knowledgeable of the EY curriculum and how to best support children in their development.
One teeny tiny improvement would be if the app was updated slightly more regularly. It would be great to be able to see on the app how much sleep they have at the end of each day, and I love seeing the photos of the lovely activities. However, the staff will always tell you all the information at home time; I just have a memory like a sieve.
Overall, we are so happy with the flexibility of having a term-time only place, and the lovely staff make it such a positive experience.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review; we really appreciate it! We aim to take all constructive feedback on board!
It’s nice knowing that they also take trips out to the park, as well as have a huge range of toys/playtime/activities inside too.
I really like the flexibility of being able to choose school hours too, and have always had a clear and quick communication with support services as well as the nursery management too.
Our little one runs happily into the nursery, nothing more positive than that!
