YMCA Merstham Hub Pre-school

My daughter has just finished two and a half wonderful years at the YMCA Merstham Hub Pre-School. She skipped in every morning and was always greeted with a smile from every team member. Their use of the online learning journal meant that I could see pictures at least weekly of the activities she was doing, the friends she was playing with and the teachers she loved spending time with. It is a wonderful pre-school and has prepared her to take her next steps with confidence!

My daughter has been attending the YMCA Pre School in Merstham for just under one year. We are so happy with the progress she has made there. She loves attending and they do so many fun activities with her, including dance and music classes, animal encounters and lots of indoor and outdoor play. The Pre school is managed brilliantly and they keep parents in the loop about children’s progress and what they have been up to with lots of photos and parent+key worker catch ups. They cover lots of key skills in preparing the children for school but it is all done in a fun way. They also cover lots of important life and daily skills like road safety, recycling and preparing food. My daughter has one year left at this Pre school and I already know we will both be sad when she has to leave. All the staff are very enthusiastic and caring and I feel confident leaving her in their care.

A big thank you, to a lovely team.

Highly recommended.

Both of our daughters have now attended YMCA Merstham Hub Pre-school, and we could not be more grateful for the nurturing support that they both received. All staff go above and beyond to support the children, regardless of their individual needs. My daughter goes to preschool every day and doesn't look back, which tells us that she always feels safe, happy and understood. I would not hesitate to recommend the preschool to friends, family and neighbours. The preschool is a little gem in the heart of a community.

YMCA Pre-School really helped our child in his early learning stage. Teachers helped him to learn hows to share, care and get along with the crowd. We are really thankful for all the support and care they provided.

They are really loving and dependable.

Overall, I would highly recommend this pre-school.

The preschool is a caring, loving place and it also has helped my son learn new things, being able to make friends and it’s just so warm and welcoming. I’m so grateful I found this preschool, and the staff are just incredible and helpful, couldn’t fault it. Best choice I made for my kids.

I would highly recommend this preschool. The staff are amazing and my son loves going in every day. It's got such a welcoming feel and nothing is never too much for the staff. My son has come on so much with his speech and is making so many new friends that he comes out of his day always smiling and can't wait to tell everyone what he has done for the day. I love looking at his online journal to see the pictures of all the children having fun.

Our child has flourished during his time at YMCA Merstham Hub Pre-school. The teachers have been wonderful in bringing him out of his shell and he looks forward to his days in nursery. He always enjoys telling us about all the wonderful things he has done there.

I highly recommend this preschool. The staff are absolutely amazing and my son loves going in everyday. It's got such a welcoming feel and seeing my son so happy, making friends and smiling when he comes out, makes me a very happy mum. Can't recommend enough.

Amazing nursery with very friendly staff who made my son feel comfortable and happy within minutes on his first day. I'd definitely send my younger child here when she is old enough and I can't recommend them enough.

Prices are very affordable. Great location for access to the Hub facilities and local library, which are in the same building.

Lovely friendly and welcoming environment. All the staff are incredibly passionate about their roles and are amazing with the children. My daughter thoroughly enjoys the setting and really looks forward to coming in on her set days. I would highly recommend the pre-school to other parents.

The preschool is amazing. Definately prefer YMCA preschool than my son's old one. The staff are amazing.

My son loves it here, there are great, patient and caring staff. Lots of different activities to try. He never wants to leave.

My son started this preschool just a few weeks ago and I couldn’t be happier. My son is non-verbal and on the autistic spectrum and as his mother, I was petrified of sending him to nursery. After a few weeks, I have not one worry about how he is doing. All the staff have gone above and beyond to help my son settle in, taking time to help him with his communication cards, his level of understanding is incredible now, the staff work with other organisations that are helping my son on his journey and I can’t thank them enough for all they have done so far. My son doesn’t walk to nursery, he skips, with the biggest smile on his face, he can’t talk but in his own way, he tells me how happy he is that he goes to this nursery.

My son has made so many new friends since starting and is loves going!

The girls have settled really well, they love coming to preschool and don't want to come home sometimes. They have bonded with all the staff really well and always tell me what they have done in the day. The building is always clean and tidy and the staff are always well dressed.
