The Orchard Day Nursery Wimbledon

We have had a very good experience with the nursery for both of our children who are in different age groups. Generally speaking, the staff are attentive to the children's well-being and invested in their development. We feel that the learning experience is personalized and well balanced. The staff are also very friendly and caring. We really can't ask for more! Both the staff and the management are great at communicating with us and always available to hear about our concerns and reassure us. The app is also a great tool that provides us with a glimpse of what the kids are up to at nursery and they are always up to great things! We are happy with the variety of activities offered including the tennis/football and French classes. Management is very involved in the kids' wellbeing as well as evidenced by the links and attachments formed between the kids and the manager. Lastly, we greatly appreciate that the nursery opens so early in the mornings and is open all year round.

4) kind staff - every single person at Orchard feels invested in children's development. They have helped me so much along the way, whether it was potty training or getting used to wearing a mask for travel.

My son has attended the nursery for 11 months now. He absolutely loves it there! I had another baby in May this year and my son’s behaviour was hard to manage. Everyone at the nursery was so kind, caring and knowledgeable in helping us get back on track with this. Even now they provide me with new ideas of any challenges we are facing. The app is a great way to see what your child has eaten and slept in the day. Daily posts on the activities they have enjoyed allow me to talk to my son about his day whilst his words are limited. Nothing is ever a bother for the staff and they are so reassuring in any worries I have. My second child will be joining them in a few months' time. I can’t recommend this nursery enough. Helpful, kind, reassuring, and passionate in striving to help our little ones develop. Thank you for all you do for us.

This is my second child at this nursery, and when it was time for the younger one to go to the nursery, I didn’t look for other nurseries; I already knew that he is going to this nursery, based on the previous good experience that I had.

When my son started at this nursery every time we walked to the entrance door, he would get frustrated and start crying as he was very close and clingy to both me and his father. But within such a small space of time, he has become confident, happy and very sociable not just with the staff and his peers at nursery but even family and friends. Whereas before nursery, we were unable to take him to other people’s homes because he would start crying straight away. Through the nursery, I have discovered that my son is an auditory learner.

The nursery is great. My son has been going there for around two years. He loves it. The teachers are great communicators, regularly give us updates on his progress and update their app daily detailing his activities. Unlike the previous nursery he attended, the classes are not overcrowded and each teacher really knows the kids in their care. He does a wide range of activities, helping with all areas of his development. The classrooms are all so diverse, which is great as it introduces my son to children from a range of different ethnic backgrounds. For the location, the nursery represents great value.

The team is great, very accommodating and extremely friendly. Our daughter happily walks in each morning which reassures us greatly. We notice her development as a result of attending nursery. They have called us when our daughter has been sick, which again reassures us. My wife and I are both doctors and have busy work patterns, but find the nursery very accommodating.

Absolutely fantastic nursery, a real gift to have found such a wonderful set of teachers and professionals who genuinely care so much for the children in their care. They provide so many exciting opportunities for them and come up with all sorts of fun and engaging activities. The communication with parents is also exceptional. They are like family, my son loves them and is always so excited to get into the buggy to go to nursery for the day! Can't thank them enough. Great food options too.

We are so happy with The Orchard. Our daughter has always been over the moon to go, runs in ar drop offs not even looking back. She loves her teachers and friends. The open layout is great. Kitchen is open too so kids can learn about cooking. They spend a lot of time in the lovely garden. The nursery organises weekly activities like bug theater, teddy tennis, football, French classes etc. Love the Famly app for daily reports and communication. 5 stars!

We love this nursery! Professional and friendly attention always. I feel my children stay in a learning and safe environment. Very understanding, staff always ready to listen and answer anything I need to ask or say. In over 3 years of experience with my children there, I have never had a single negative issue.

Our daughter (3years) has been attending Orchard Day Nursery since she was 10-months-old. We have found this to be a very nurturing environment, and she has always been very settled and happy there throughout this time. The activities for the children are stimulating and creative, aimed at supporting each child's developmental needs well. From the start, we've been very impressed with the variety of new fresh foods and meals provided each day, and we are emailed clear daily personalised reports about how our daughter's day was. The open plan design of the nursery has separate designated areas for the different age groups, and there is always a warm, happy and welcoming atmosphere in the nursery.

My daughter attended this nursery when she was 8-months-old and is now 15-months. She has always loved being left at The Orchard nursery, which provides me with peace of mind that the staff know what they are doing. They always send me daily reports as well as the app updates with videos and photos often. My daughter is happy when I drop and pick her up. The staff are super friendly and try to get the most out of her development. I'm very glad I found this nursery!

Four members of the team and many other staff have been my child's key people, and they are all fantastic professionals who have looked after him very well. Big thank you to you all!

Orchard is an outstanding nursery in every way. The level of care, love, attention and focus on the individual needs of each child there is exceptional. The staff are friendly and want to help in any way that they can, which has been a tremendous source of support to me as a single working mum. I also love the daily reports sent electronically so I have a detailed understanding of what my daughter has done during the day, and the regular parent's newsletters too. My daughter has been at another nursery prior to Orchard, and the contrast in care is significant. I would recommend any parents to send their child to Orchard without hesitation.

My daughter has been at The Orchard Day Nursery for about 2 months now and we have seen a real improvement in her development. The settling in period was brilliant and really helped her bond with her key worker. All staff are friendly and welcoming to both the children and parents. My daughter has always eaten really well at nursery and now sleeps well there too which is fantastic given shes been there for such a short amount of time. I'd have no issue with recommending the nursery to other families.

We had our 3-year-old daughter there. It was a fantastic experience, where we felt very supported. Excellent environment. Daily reliable communication with the staff. We saw clear positive improvement in our daughter in so many different aspects of development. Absolutely recommend.

My daughter has attended this nursery since turning 1 (she’s now coming up to 2 1/2) and loves it here. From the start, the team were welcoming and helped her (and me!) settle in well. They were also great at transitioning her into the 2-3s area when she turned 2. The open plan nature of the nursery means the children and staff all get to know each other and there’s a very friendly open attitude as well. The team clearly care a lot about the children and are so passionate about what they do.

We would not hesitate to recommend Orchard Day Nursery to other parents; our daughter is happy and well looked after by caring staff.

We would strongly recommend this nursery to any prospective parents.

Orchard provide a safe and stimulating environment for both my children. Staff work creatively and with pedagogical knowledge to support their social and imaginative development. Both my children love coming to nursery and have a strong bond with their key workers.
