All the staff extremely friendly and helpful. A lot of games and activities for children.
My son loves it so much. I am very satisfied with this pre-school for my little one.
I can highly recommend.
Thank you for all that you do. You are great.
Magic! It's so nice to hear that your Crafty Wizard settled in well, our practitioners are skillful in trying out a variety of strategies to settle in our new Crafty Wizards. We work hard to make learning inspiring and like to challenge our children in a supportive manner. We look forward to the terms ahead, time goes so fast that our magical Graduation Ceremony will be here before you know it!
Crafty Wizards is a great nursery just wish I had sent my son earlier on.
Excellent in all areas! We do work hard in having strong parent partnerships with our parent portal, closed facebook page, parent committee group, events throughout the year, Wizarding Quill, Stay and Play sessions and open door policy. We hope that the magic continues for you and your Crafty...
I’m so pleased with this nursery. My daughter loves going and she loves her teachers. The staff are fantastic, always so friendly and happy. There is always so much for the children to do.
Thank you for taking the time in writing this review. Management work hard to ensure excellent standards. We hope that you have enjoyed seeing the progress and learning what has occurred this term and the wonderful creative festivities. We have had our parents stay and play, Winter Wonderland...
Crafty Wizards World Pre-School is truly amazing. My daughter looks forward to her days there and I have full confidence she is being cared for despite her medical problems. The nursery made sure all staff went on a training course to be able to provide the necessary care my daughter would need in a medical emergency and are so cautious with her! She will most likely be staying for another year instead of the primary school nursery as I know she will be looked after and taught a lot more at crafty wizards world. Thank you Wizards World Pre-School!!
Excellent in all areas!! Thank you so much for your amazing praise, the team will be happy to read this. Our staff do go on a number of courses through the year and we tailor this to supporting our Crafty Wizards needs and their own professional development. We are glad that you feel confident in...
Such an awesome environment! Definitely one of the best decisions made.
Excellent in all areas again! Thank you for your review. We think our Pre-School is unique and it's great to hear that you and your Crafty Wizard enjoy the wizarding theme! Making learning magical is our motto, along with the 'Crafty Wizards, I can do it' mantra! It's lovely to hear that you and your Crafty Wizard enjoy the energy and passion that we have for Early Years.
My daughter started in September and she absolutely loves it here. The teachers are so welcoming and friendly and make us feel so comfortable here. Recently they had pirates day & it was amazing. The teachers got really involved & made such a good effort with their fancy dress and the decoration in the nursery. We couldn’t be happier with our choice to send our daughter here.
Aye aye captain! Glad your daughter enjoy our Pirate Day. Staff always join in with dress up and role play, look out for our book week next year! Our Crafty Wizards enjoyed trying our gruel and taking part in lots of pirate themed activities tailored also around their interests and developmental...
The Facebook page is brilliant and I really enjoy being able to see what my son is doing each day.
The staff are always approachable, friendly and understanding and we would highly recommend Crafty Wizards World.
Thank you for recommending our Pre-School to others and for your kind words, I will pass it on to the team.
Thanks for taking the time to write this review.
An excellent, well run nursery! My daughter has progressed massively due to varied activities and themes that change on a daily basis! Fantastic staff who are attentive and supportive and keen to update on my daughter's progress! I can't recommend enough.
Excellent in all areas! We pride ourselves in offering inspiring activities to enthuse children's learning. We were praised in our prestigious Quality Mark Award and are glad to hear that you believe that staff are attentive and supportive. Please look out for our termly invite to parents to have a...
This preschool is amazing. I viewed 6 local preschools and this one was the standout. 'My child has a caring team looking after her helping her grow and the facilities are great. The staff are imaginative and fun. They are great communicators through the Facebook group so we as parents know what our kids are doing each day.
Thank you for your review. We are all VERY happy to hear that you selected us from 6 other local nurseries. We are glad that you value our closed parent facebook group updates. Please do speak to a member of staff about our parent portal that offers individual observations for you to look at and...
She talks about how much she loves all the other kids and staff.
As a parent myself I've had no complaints. Would definitely recommend to others.
Excellent all round! Your feedback puts extra sparkle in our day! We are happy that you feel that we are outstanding to recommend us to others. We all work hard to offer the best opportunities for all our Crafty Wizards and work closely with the community and outside agencies. We had the police in...
They were great at helping her settle in then she started as she's a very shy and nervous girl.
She really enjoys going to the school!
Thank you for your review. It's great to hear that excellent, management work hard to ensure that all staff have consistent training to ensure that our Crafty Wizards have the best possible opportunities to progress and have fun. Please do talk to management about your 'good' ratings so that we can...
Crafty Wizards is a fabulous nursery, my daughter loves going and quite often doesn't want to come home as its so much fun.
The staff are amazing and work so hard, I have used other nurseries in the area for my older child and would always recommend Crafty Wizards over any of the others.
I would definitely recommend to any family looking for childcare.
Thank you so much for your kind words. The late nights and hard work that goes on behind the scenes by management and the team are worth while when we see the progress of our children and parent feedback. Thank you for recommending us to others. We would love to hear how you think that we could get...
My son joined Crafty Wizard World in September 2016. As a teacher myself, I had very high expectations and I am delighted to say that Crafty Wizard World has, and continues to, exceed all of my expectations! My son has made wonderful progress thanks to the caring and dedicated staff. Crafty Wizard World is a magical place with equally magical staff. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Crafty Wizard World.
Excellent all round! Magic! Thank you for your lovely comments, we are very happy that we have exceeded your high expectations. We montior the progress of our children carefully and plan activities that can help support and challenge our Crafty Wizards in a fun and inspiring way. Tomorrow staff...
My daughter has been attending Crafty Wizards PreSchool in Eltham since November 2016. Each member of staff has been very supportive to myself and my daughter while she has been settling in. The team create exciting and different daily activities for the children which keeps their interest and provides a great platform for learning. The closed Facebook group is a great way to see what my daughter has been up to while at nursery and details the weekly themes and activities that the children will be involved in - love this! Overall, I feel my daughter is safe and stimulated while she is at nursery and this brings great peace of mind.
Excellent all round - magic! Thank you for your spell-binding comments and review. We are very pleased that you are happy with the range of activities that we plan. This week we have been making rain gauges, decorating biscuits, our usual messy play and measuring towers with measuring tapes and...
As always, this nursery is fantastic. My son enjoys going tremendously. The staff are caring, attentive to the children and are always there to help. I visited lots of nurseries in choosing the right one for us and found this is an outstanding preschool. Since starting my son has developed in every aspect of growing and learning and it's all down to the staff at Crafty Wizards.
Excellent all round! Thank you. Management and staff work tirelessly to provide creative opportunities for learning. With our affirmation a week, Makaton sign of the week, Magic Circle Times, intervention groups, take home teddies, chatterbox, phonics programmes we aim to offer rich and inspiring...
I can't recommend Crafty Wizards enough. I was so worried sending my little girl to a nursery but all at Crafty wizards made me feel at ease. They are so welcoming and friendly and I find the closed Facebook group really good as I can see what my little one is up to when she's there. She took a while to settle at first but has now been going for a few weeks and can't wait to go each day. As soon as she wakes up and sees her uniform she wants to go so I know she now loves it there. She doesn't stop talking about nursery and particularly loves the soft play unit with ball pit.
Excellent all round! Thank you for your positive comments, I will ensure the team know. We are glad that you have found the facebook closed group for parents useful with our photo and news updates. We are sending out a reminder about how to also make use of our online parent portal. It has been...
Crafty Wizards is an outstanding pre school and nursery. Their teaching techniques are unique and they should take massive credit for what they do at the school and with the children. My children have developed further than I ever expected and continue to do so at home as well. The staff are truly amazing and take pride in what they do. I couldn't praise them any more. I can't express my gratefulness to them any more than I have. Thank you for everything you've done and do Crafty Wizards.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are heartened by your comments and are privileged to have seen your children progress so far since they started. We are glad that the learning opportunities and intervention groups are having such a great impact on progress. I will ensure that...
My child was in Crafty Wizards Preschool from September 2016 until January 2017. He had enjoyed his attendance at the nursery very much and it had given him a very good start for the future education. We were very pleased with his speech development and social skill which have really helped him settling in the new preschool.
Thank you for your positive review. It is great to hear that you think the learning and staff are excellent. It is thanks to management that staff are so well trained in the early years. Recently management has delivered training on behaviour management and positive relationships.

Crafty Wizards World is an amazing pre-school. My son started attending just after he completed 2 years and now he's almost 2 and a half. During this time we have seen amazing progress in his social, emotional and speech development. English is not his first language, but thanks to the staff who are extremely attentive and always try innovative ideas for speech and communication development (makaton signs, magic circle story time, number counting with toys and arts) his English has progressed in a really fast pace. Also, organising short trips, forest school, Christmas parties and special theme days, makes the pre-school a very fun place to be! Finally I am very happy that I am able to observe online daily pictures of their activities.
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. It is lovely to hear your positive comments. We are now using some BSL choice cards also to aid communication. We are starting work on extending our sheltered area outside so that children will have more opportunities to learn outside. We have lots more planned for the academic year ahead!
My son has attended Crafty Wizards World since September 2015, shortly after it opened as a pre-school, and we've been extremely impressed so far. First and foremost, all of the staff are very caring and competent. My son has recently turned two, and in the time he's been going to Crafty Wizards I've noticed a real development in his language and social skills. The pre-school management team seem to have a real passion for early years education. Despite having a relatively small space to work with, they've managed to pack in a really good variety of equipment and they have made excellent use of their outdoor space - most days I pick up a very messy but very happy little boy who has been playing in the sandpit or mud kitchen! Another thing I have been particularly impressed with it the level of communication they maintain with parents. I love being able to go to their online parents group and see the pictures they've posted of what the children are up to, and that this is updated a number of times throughout the day. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this pre-school.
Thank you for your review, we really appreciate the time you have spent. We are glad to hear that you like our parent partnership opportunities. We are trying to encourage parents to come in and share their skills/ talents/ hobbies with the children during a session too so let us know if you are...
