The Wandsworth Day Nursery

Our daughter went here for a couple of years. It's a lovely nursery with good staff and a great manager. The rooms are modern and spacious. The handovers are documented. The outside play area is really good and they have bunnies! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

My daughter attended the nursery from age 2 right up until leaving to go to school. We've had a really positive experience with the nursery and she has been very happy there. The outdoor facilities are fab (the construction area was a big hit!) and the special classes and rabbits were a bonus. The new manager and her team have worked hard to build up the nursery staffing and community again, and I feel like they really knew my daughter well and were great at supporting her development.

We have been with the nursery for the past 4 years when our eldest daughters started (now at school) and then our son attended for the past 2 years. It's been a great experience, especially in the last year, since the new principal joined. We really appreciate her transparency and honesty and we really trust her and her staff! They are very caring and experienced, a great support for us throughout our children's development. The space is great, the rooms are spacious and full of interesting activities for the children and we love the variety: well-being space, library, sensory room, etc. Also, the outdoors is an amazing space, when looking for a nursery we were very firm on the importance of access to the outdoors, which many nurseries in London lack. In this nursery, our son spends a good amount of time outdoors and he is engaged with fantastic activities he is keen to tell me all about when I go to pick him up, of course, after a visit to Fluffy and Biscuit!

The manager and her team are doing an amazing job at the nursery. My son loves going there every day and I can see massive improvements in his speech since he went there full time. (He used to go half a day until mid-May). I don't have the slightest worry when he is there, as I know he is well looked after.

We have seen a significant improvement in the nursery since the latest principal started. We always see her on her knees talking to the kids, holding them or playing with them. Our daughter is happy and is developing great confidence, partly because of the care and education the nursery is providing. The premises look tidy, fun and informative and the staff seem more relaxed and happy. The sports new sessions and the two bunnies/mascots are additional experiences for the kids, which we are very grateful for. Looking forward to the new system put in place, as is the only thing they are missing at the moment.

My son has attended The Wandsworth Preschool since he was 8 months and I am absolutely blown away by his development. All of the staff are amazing, friendly and kind, and genuinely care about my son and helping him to grow and thrive. I've noticed a huge difference since my son started at the nursery, and he loves all the staff so much. His speech has come along in leaps and bounds, which is encouraged daily by the manager and his mentor. Out of all the nurseries in the area, I am so glad we chose this one. Each day my son attends, he always has the best time. I am grateful to the manager and her team!

We want to drop a note to say how happy we are that the new manager has joined the nursery and what a difference it has made. The staff in my child's room have always been so nice but the change in direction this nursery has had is unbelievable - it has been turned around so quickly to a positive place. The attention to detail with the kids, the manager gives, is incredible and with parents too, they always have time for our questions and in every way help and support us. I never imagined a London nursery to have such a homely feel. The rabbits - I can see a difference in my child's behaviour around animals already. The reading room and sensory room are so calm and peaceful. I would recommend the nursery to everyone.

I'm so pleased my son remained at the nursery and I can tell the manager is really passionate about the nursery. There have been a lot of positive changes and the main thing is that the children are very happy which is so lovely to see. The new additions fluffy and biscuit have been an extra added bonus, my son talks about them and it's lovely for children to have a pet around from a young age. Communication isn't an issue these days we are always kept in the loop as to what is happening and there is more of a community feel now.

We have had such a positive experience with the Wandsworth Preschool. My oldest daughter started there nearly 2 years ago and my youngest has been there for 2 months. They both love going to nursery and my eldest begs me to stay longer every time I pick her up! The preschool is a very nurturing and loving environment. I feel that every teacher knows both my children in and out, and they take such an interest in their lives and ours as parents. They continue to introduce new and exciting concepts and activities for the children - such as a library room, rabbits, tadpoles, French lessons, a wellness garden and a construction site! I feel that the content is stimulating and it sparks lots of new conversations between my nearly-3-year-old and myself. We are so happy with the school and couldn’t recommend it highly enough!

Personal, empathetic, caring and creative is how I'd describe The Wandsworth Preschool. My daughter started when she was 6 months old and we've just left (due to leaving London) 2.5 years later. From the first interactions with the nursery, it's been personal. As we joined pre-COVID, the home visit by our mentor was a wonderful touch to help us get to know her. The creativity of the nursery and the packed schedule of events, celebrations, artist of the month provides a fantastic level of creativity, which gets everyone involved. I was amazed I could chat with my 2-year-old about famous artists, she put me to shame! The effort and work that went into the play at Christmas was again impressive, particularly during a COVID peak. My daughter got really into nature and by talking to the team they got some caterpillars, did a worm house and grew flowers on the patio. The senior team take time to understand you as a parent too and support you when you need it. We were so sad to leave!

Our daughter has loved being able to do ballet, yoga, dance, as well as cooking and lots of singing and dancing. Seeing a whole nursery performance of The Wizard of Oz was a definite highlight.

My child started The Wandsworth Preschool in March 2021 and I have nothing but praise to sing about the nursery! I was very apprehensive as my lockdown baby had never been away from me and was still quite young but all staff managed to put me at ease and my child settled extremely well. He is always keen to get his shoes on in the morning to go to nursery and always so happy throughout the day. Staff are friendly but professional, thorough, understanding and very caring. Since starting my child has began to meet his milestones rapidly, due to attentive staff and a great variety of activities he is able to learn through play. I particularly enjoy seeing my child learn and develop on there CCTV facility as well as seeing what he is up to during the day on there online journal. I would definitely recommend the nursery.

Our son has been at the nursery for nearly three months and we are extremely satisfied with the quality of services of the Wandsworth Preschool. The staff always gives a high level of care, attention and love to our son as well as all other children. The staff always try to vary the activities from one week to another so the children can explore different areas in painting, drawing and reading aspects. A lot of attention is also given to the hygiene to ensure that all children are safe and remain healthy. The staff always help each child to feed by giving personal support to those who are distracted during lunchtime. They have recently asked us whether our son wanted another food as they had noticed that he did not eat a lot from his plate. The employees give a lot of attention to detail, and this is what we really like at the Wandsworth Preschool. Our son keeps learning and exploring day after day. Thank you to everyone working at the Wandsworth Preschool! Keep it up!

This is a fantastic nursery, the staff are very professional and welcoming, the facilities are great, and the outdoor area is very decent for London standards. We were new in the area, so we visited several nurseries, and Wandsworth Preschool is by far the best one (in my opinion at least, and I've seen plenty of nurseries as we've got an older daughter and we had to move every couple of years). The nursery provides the right balance of engagement, simulating activities and quiet time. Our youngest is their full time, and she enjoys three meals, cooked on-site, the food is fresh and balanced, with plenty of fruit and veg, yoghurts, and lean meat. She loves going to nursery, and sometimes when we pass by during the weekend, she asks if she can go in. We were abroad for two years before we moved back to London, and the managing staff were very accommodating and supportive, our daughter had settled in sessions before she started full time, and she's loved it since.

The Wandsworth Preschool is a fantastic nursery. All of the staff are caring, kind, professional and so much fun.

The daily activities are fantastic and varied; my son has so much fun at nursery. They also have good outdoor space, which was important to me when choosing a nursery.

The food is brilliant; they get two cooked meals a day which is made on site.

I would highly recommend The Wandsworth Preschool to other parents.

I highly recommend The Wandsworth Pre School. My daughter has developed very much since she joined. The nursery has CCTV, which brings me peace of mind and also updates how my daughter's day is going, which is very helpful for me to plan the rest of her day. The staff is very helpful, and the mentors in her room are very loving. They always have different activities planned and make the parents aware of what is going on and what we can do at home. I can see that my daughter is happy to attend the nursery and her progress is very clear.

They have adapted appropriately and effectively to the Covid situation as well.

I would recommend The Wandsworth Preschool without reservation.

We have been extremely happy with the Wandsworth Preschool over the 2-years we have been with them. I have two daughters attending, and their happiness is obviously the key factor in our choice of school. The staff are lovely, warm and welcoming as well as professional. The management team are approachable and accommodating, and great with communication. The facilities are of a high, impressive standard, with the outdoor play area being a positive drawcard. The meals provided are great, and very rarely am I notified that my girls have not eaten at school. The fact that we have moved further away from the nursery, yet still choose to keep our girls there, is testimony to our happiness and satisfaction with the school.

We moved our 3-year-old daughter to this nursery after the birth of her sibling. Despite all the changes going on, I was impressed with how easily our daughter settled into the nursery and is keen to attend. The staff are great and communicate heaps (an issue we have had at the previous nursery was poor handover), which I am sure led to the smooth transition. Our daughter is super happy here, and that's testimony to the nursery. Happy child, happy life!

Couldn’t recommend it more!
