Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery

Our 1-year-old started with Three Little Birds/Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery full day, four days a week in May and we have been incredibly happy with our transition to nursery! Management are fantastic and highly communicative, our key person is wonderful, always providing updates on the settling-in period and daily status reports. I'm a big fan of the app which lets us know how our child has slept, what he's eaten (very cooperative with the egg allergy we have) and overall well-being. I would recommend this nursery to other parents.

We’d recommend it!

My daughter has been attending for 2 weeks… and she is back to her great old self, dancing, laughing, and chatting away. The staff have been so patient and understanding of her needs, I’m amazed to say that after 1 and a half weeks she is completely settled with new friends and is super eager to leave the house in the morning. I have my happy girl back! Thank you to all the staff.

We could not be happier with Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery. Really competent and helpful staff, very flexible and accommodating. Good, nutritious food for the children as well as plenty of room for them to express their creativity. I feel reassured knowing our daughter is spending time here as I know she is genuinely cared for.

Our experience with the nursery over the past three years has been very positive. They are very attuned to each child’s individual needs and give children lots of opportunities to express their creativity. They are incredibly flexible and accommodating too, which we’ve found important as our lives change and child’s needs evolve.

Quick response and update information on time. All staff are very friendly and look after my daughter. She is very happy. Unfortunately, I couldn’t view and enter the facility due to Covid, but all good.

We had our daughter start at Clerkenwell Mount in January when she was 13-months-old and were so nervous about the transition (she had only ever been home with me for the last year). The nursery manager was very understanding and flexible with us, and we really felt like she had our daughter's best interest in mind (rather than nursery "rules" like some other places we've heard of). Our daughter had a tough time transitioning, but the nursery staff let us take it really slowly, and we've eventually gotten to a great place where we feel really confident that our daughter can stay for a full day and be happy. The nursery manager was incredibly patient during this whole time - never making me feel bad for calling to check in every day. We feel like we've really found a gem of a nursery and like this will be a long-lasting relationship (feels like a family vibe).

Very professional and feel our daughter is being taken care of properly. She comes home explaining what she did with a smile and a confident look. They offer natural, healthy snacks/lunch which she is currently getting used to slowly and we appreciate the team taking time for her to adjust.

The staff at Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery have been really nice and helpful, especially during our settling in period when Covid restrictions were still in place. My daughter has settled well into the baby room and I love seeing all the fun and themed activities she gets up to each day, as well as the delicious food she eats via the app which was so reassuring for me as a parent returning to work. My daughter’s confidence has also increased and I can see that she is learning so many new things every day that she is there. The nursery has a lovely, welcoming environment and I highly recommend them.

Our son very much enjoys going to this nursery, and he made strong bonds with both the other children in the toddler room and his key person. As parents, we are impressed by the activities that he does at the nursery as these are really focused on developing his learning, communication, social skills while having fun! We are happy with the nursery and would recommend it.

We enjoy reviewing the reports on the app every day and wish there were more pictures to spy on our little one having fun!

Our son loves Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery. This was his first nursery experience post-Covid and we thought it would take him much longer to settle, however, the staff are great and he was settled in less than a week. He is happy to go every morning and happy when we pick him up. We can tell he is learning at nursery as he comes home each week with new skills and interests for things we have not exposed him to so we know he is getting it from nursery. The staff are friendly and loving and have been great to work with, getting families and themselves through Covid.

Wonderful nursery, amazing and supporting staff. My son has been going there for eighteen months now and is absolutely thriving. The classrooms are separated by age group (babies, toddlers etc.) so are tailored to their individual needs and growth. In spite of Covid (and no parental access to the classrooms), Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery has done a terrific job of keeping us informed of our child’s development and daily acitivities. I would highly recommend this nursery!

Firstly, I would like to say thank you to the Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery team for playing a big role in my son’s learning experience. I couldn’t have put him in a better nursery to give him a head start in his learning life. The level of teaching is amazing, my son is already bilingual, one day he came home counting in three other languages. Having little amount of children in a nursery is such a bonus that the children are getting more one to one time which focuses on their development. I cannot wait for my second son to attend this nursery.

Our daughter really enjoys Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery and we have been impressed as parents. The professionalism and experience of the staff is great, coupled with the brilliant food (which our daughter loves). We would recommend without hesitation.

Clerkenwell is a wonderful nursery; it’s a home from home. The small teams give it a real family feel, creating a safe environment for the children to thrive. The team genuinely care and connect with the children, showing a real passion for what they do. Our children formed strong bonds with the key workers, who supported not only the children, but us, as a family. I would recommend this nursery, especially if you’re torn between a nanny or a nursery; this is the perfect middle ground. Thanks, Clerkenwell; you will always have a special place in our hearts!

I like dropping my little one at this nursery in the morning because I know he will not only be in a safe space, he will be taken good care of and he will learn so much! Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery doesn't bill itself with big method names but does a really great job in terms of building children confidence and independence. I realised that one of the first months he was there, he was still pretty young and I was still working through the weaning phase at home and all of a sudden he started complaining that he wanted to use the spoon on his own and went on using it perfectly. When I asked his key worker the following day she said "yes, well of course he eats on his own". Since then, every day I just await to discover which new life skill he's been equipped with in nursery.

The team at Clerkenwell Mount Day Nursery have been fantastic. They organised the settling in period really well so it went relatively smoothly in the context of lockdown. They create lots of different activities, a varied menu and good daily communication with us.

A very happy customer!

I would highly recommend them.
