My daughter joined Monkey Puzzle Tatsfield nursery January 2026 and in this short time it has been so positive and lovely to see her thrive. The nursery offers a warm, safe, welcoming haven and the staff are amazing. They are always friendly, supportive and attentive! I enjoy hearing how my daughter's day has been and the many activities and adventures the nursery offers. I want to appreciate the staff and thank them for their care! I have peace of mind knowing my daughter is well looked after. I look forward to the frequent updates and newsletter -enjoy reading what my daughter and her group have been up to.
Our daughter has just finished the most fantastic 3 years at Monkey Puzzle Tatsfield. She has thrived in this fantastic setting and she has enjoyed every minute of being there. Monkey Puzzle Tatsfield is in a lovely setting with opportunities to access the community on small trips as well as having excellent facilities on site. They have just started to offer Forest School which was a massive hit and are now rolling it out as a holiday club which we look forward to taking up. The staff are kind, caring and dedicated to their work and nothing is ever too much trouble. Activities are well thought out and they have supported so many aspects of our daughter's development. We have recently attended our daughter's graduation which was a fantastic event, and really showed us how well they knew and understood her. We look forward to our son starting in October!
I could not have asked for a better environment for my boys to spend their weekdays growing up so far. All the staff are brilliant and very attentive. Thank you for making our nursery journey so great! We will miss everyone very much.
The staff love and support my daughter
The facilities are excellent
My daughter loves going to nursery and I am so happy she is so well cared for and has such fantastic activities to do
I was so anxious as she was quite young starting, but the team made her feel so welcome and relaxed that soon she couldn't wait to get out of my arms and into theirs a drop-off! Staff are great at communication and my little girl adores her key worker and all of the rest of the nursery team too! She is also so great with eating and trying new things which I think is from trying lots of new food at nursery and she has even got to do some baking herself! She's learned actions to childrens songs too which is so cute to see!
Would highly recommend Monkey Puzzle Tatsfield and all of the wonderful team! Thank you for making my daughter's nursery journey so successful.
My little boy loves it here, has made great friends with children and staff, eats well and has developed amazingly. The staff have been so supportive of me and my little boy. I couldn't ask for more. My little girl will be going soon!
Very trusting, helpful, and friendly staff. Always makes dropping the kids off an easy process. They make all kids feel special and welcome.
Our son loves his time at Monkey Puzzle. He looks forward to going in the morning and enjoys telling us about his day when we pick him up. The staff are friendly and caring and we have seen huge strides in his development since he first arrived.
Amazing nursery! All the staff are lovely and welcoming. The food is amazing and the nursery is always so clean. My child is in toddlers and he always says how much he loves it and always talks about his friends and teachers.
I have been very pleased with the care my son receives at this nursery. His key worker has really gotten to know him and has helped with his potty training and communication. My son enjoys the activities and always has a smile on his face when I pick him up.
My daughter has always been happy to come to nursery. She always has a lovely time. The staff are caring and the children are well looked after. We have had extra support from the nursery with her speech and regular feedback and activities to do at home. We are really pleased with our choice of nursery!
My child has loved his time at Monkey Puzzle, he is always full of beans at the end of the day. We have had a great experience in our short time with Monkey Puzzle.
My daughter loves the nursery. The staff are so friendly and informative when it comes to care, development, eating and activities.
The staff at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery are wonderful! They are always cheery and enthusiastic. As a nervous first time mother putting my child in nursery, they were so supportive and caring. The new Blossom App is fantastic, to receive a detailed daily diary and we look forward to receiving updates of our daughters 'Golden Moments!', its been very rewarding to see her development and confidence build over the last few months. Would highly recommend.
My son enjoys going to Monkey Puzzle. The staff are very engaging and they seem to know my son really well.
I have found the nursery to offer a very supportive, exciting, and varied learning environment for my child. They particularly enjoy the outdoor projects and forest-school-type activities that they offer, as well as cooking, reading, crafts, and well-being activities. Baby spa and animal yoga were particular hits!
We love Monkey Puzzle! It’s a safe and secure setting for little ones, they have a great balance of learning and play both indoors and outdoors and fantastic food. And the new Blossom system is a great way to keep track of daily activities and achievements! The nursery staff are amazing, we would highly recommend it.
The preschool room is going from strength to strength and my child is extremely happy to attend nursery. The children are lucky to be able to engage in exciting activities on a daily basis. Information is fed-back to parents using an app. The children are working towards improving language and introduction of phonics but also equal importance seems to be placed upon mental health, emotional development and resilience. As a parent, I am really impressed. The staff seem genuinely enthusiastic in creating and developing activities eg. gardening, cooking and really helping the children understand the world around them through play.
My son has loved his time at Monkey Puzzle Tatsfield, he’s come home happy and tired! The food is good, staff are excellent and the outdoor play area is brilliant. We love that they do events like Mother’s Day tea, Father’s Day breakfast, Christmas concert, summer bbq and a graduation ceremony. I have also had excellent feedback from day one as to how he is doing. The only recommendation I have would be to possibly introduce some day trips out of nursery.
Staff are personable and build great connections with the children. They support all areas of development with care and consideration whilst keeping things fun!
I highly recommend this nursery and we are all set to send our second child soon.
My daughter has been a fussy eater in the past but the food has her trying all sorts of new meals that I couldn’t get her to eat. Big thumbs up!
