Gilwell Hill Children's Day Nursery & Pre-School - Chingford

Our daughter is so happy and thriving at Gilwell nursery. She enjoys every day and comes home having learned new words and skills. We feel she is entirely safe and well looked after. The nursery places a strong emphasis on exploration and make a huge effort to take them out on day trips regularly. We would thoroughly recommend Gilwell to all parents!

We've had a great experience with Gilwell hill, my daughter started at 10 months in April, everything from the settling in sessions to the day to day activities and meals are well thought out and I felt comfortable leaving my baby while I went back to work straightaway. Staff support children in their individual development and we have seen my daughter's confidence and motor skills flourish since joining. Would highly recommend

Watching our daughter grow in confidence and happiness there has been wonderful.

Our child moved to the nursery recently and it's such an improvement on where she was previously. She's has thrived at Gilwell. They made great effort at settling her in. She's made lovely friends. The teachers have been supportive, always encouraging and warm with her best interests at heart. The extra classes are fantastic and enjoyable. The food is so healthy and home cooked. I'll be sad when she leaves for big school

This nursery is just so wonderful. The staff are so caring. I was worried when my son started as he was very clingy but they supported him so well. They do so many 'extra curricular' activities, forest walks regularly, library trips, yoga, dance, football, basketball! The staff are genuinely caring, nurturing and supportive. Responsive. The update the app regularly with lovely photos and written updates with personalised observations. Moving from a nursery that sent generic feedback before that was super impersonal this was a breath of fresh air! Would highly recommend it's done wonders for both my boys.

Enroling our daughters at Gilwell Hill has been one of the best decisions we've made.

Our girls have thrived and loved every minute of their experience.

The staff and the environment they create is what makes this place special. I couldn't recommend the nursery enough.

Very friendly staff creating a safe environment for the children to develop. Our little one comes home and amazes us every day with something new from the nursery.

Nursery has been supporting us in our child's development from the first day and has always given great feedback to help enhance progress when our little one is at home.

Keep up the amazing work, we are very grateful for it!

I'm so proud of how far she's come since starting nursery, and that's all thanks to the fantastic team. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to other parents.

All three of my children have attended this nursery first my two daughters, and now my son and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The nursery itself is warm, welcoming, and beautifully maintained. The staff are not only highly trained and professional, but also genuinely compassionate and attentive to each child's needs. My son absolutely loves going and is always excited on the days he attends. I wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing, and high quality early learning environment for their child.

I couldn't recommend this nursery more highly. It's a nurturing, supportive, and engaging environment where children thrive.

Gilwell Hill is an amazing nursery. My son is really enjoying his time there and learning so much. They offer a wide range of additional classes such as yoga, basketball, football, and phonics. All of the staff are wonderful and truly do their best to support children's development.I am so pleased that I have choosen Gilwell Hill nursery!

Can't be happier to send my boy here

Our son has grown so much here, and we're beyond grateful. Highly recommended!

My child has been attending this nursery since she was 6 months and she's 3 years old. She absolutely love the nursery.The staff are so good and always making sure they inform you everything. She loves her teachers.

Our daughter has been going to Gilwell Nursery for over a year now, and we are extremely pleased with the weekly activities, celebrations, and the care and attention that the staff provide. She has grown in confidence, and we are particularly happy with the personal level of care and attention that she receives.

Our little boy has the best time at Gilwell Hill, he settled in and adores the staff. We know he has so much fun there and is always well cared for. He loves the food, activities and staff! Couldn't ask for more from a nursery to know he is safe and more importantly very happy when he is there. Highly recommend to all.

Dearest Gilwell, our twins have attended this nursery for over four years full-time. We love the staff so much for all the encouragement, support and teaching they have given. This nursery is simply incredible! Our sons can count to nearly one hundred and sometimes more. They can certainly write their alphabet and read very well indeed. They love their nursery, but today was their last day, as next week they start school. The nursery have taken so much care and time with the twins. When they have been asleep in car on the way, staff have carried them safely inside. All the wonderful staff have made our children who they are today: kind, loving, empathetic towards others and always wanting to learn more. They will miss their teachers and friends terribly. The nursery have done amazing birthdays for our boys and the photos have been beautiful. Their learning journey is quite extraordinary. We are hugely indebted and forever grateful.

I would not hesitate in recommending Hillhouse Nursery to anyone. My son has spent a very happy 3 and a 1/2 years in their fantastic care, joining when he was 6 months old. All the staff there are very caring, patient and do their utmost to ensure both you, the parent, and your child are happy. My son is starting primary school in September and he is more than ready, he knows all his colours/shapes, can count to 20, and is doing great with his ABC. They teach the children in a fun way and such a broad range of topics. My son is happy to go to nursery. When I ask him what he will be doing there today, he always replies fun things. He has thoroughly enjoyed his time at Gilwell Hill Nursery.

Outstanding nursery, my little girl loves it and I really believe that this is the best setting for my baby to be educated and cared for. The nursery looks like a welcoming child friendly home, very cosy with book corner, building corder, home corner or messy playing corner. The staff and the management team are lovely, very helpful and always ready to give feedback or help with any questions or suggestions. I was a bit stressed in the beginning about my girl settling, but the staff in baby room made it very easy for her to accommodate and now she is very happy and impatient to arrive here every morning. The members of staff are very keen about getting to know each child personality and create bonds with them, always striving to understanding their emotions. My daughter has developed a lot since joining the nursery, her communication and social skills have also improved and she's become more confident. I cannot recommend enough this nursery!

They have a great setting, lots of activities and caring key workers. Management is engaged and listens to feedback. Great menu and approach to nutrition. My child is always happy to see them and I feel that he is being well taken care of.
