We are very happy with everything, our daughter loves to come at the nursery, she loves her teachers and the staff. I checked many nurseries around Watford before choosing Monkey Puzzle and this was by far the best one, very clean and organised. My second baby will start nursery from October, I can't wait for him to grow and learn in the same place his sister loved so much. Thank you!

Our daughter have been going to Monkey Puzzle for nearly three years and during this time we have observed positive physical, emotional and social development in her. Initially, she used to be hesitant to go there,but now she really enjoyes it. She has become more confident, extrovert, made lots of friends and has developed new skills and interests. Our experience with the staff have been excellent since day one, they are kind, professional, approchable and individualise the care of our daughter based on her needs. We are grateful to all the staff at Monkey Puzzle and would like to thank them for looking after our daughter. We would highly recommend this nursery.

Thank you so much for your wonderful and thoughtful review. It has been a real pleasure to be part of your daughter's journey over the past three years, and we're delighted to hear about the positive changes you've seen in her confidence, friendships, interests and overall development.It's especially lovely to hear how far she's come from being hesitant to attend to now genuinely enjoying her time at nursery.
Getting to know each child is something we're very passionate about, so your kind words about our team means a lot to us. Thank you for your trust, support and recommendation, we're so grateful to have been part of your daughter's early years journey.
It has a great experience for my son who stayed there for more than 2 years, he arrived without speaking any word in English and all the staff was so nice and helpful, that he settled in very quickly. Definitely recommend this nursery

We've been really happy with the settling-in sessions at the nursery. The staff were incredibly patient, caring, and supportive throughout the process, which made a huge difference for both us and our child. They took the time to understand our child's needs, helped them feel comfortable gradually,...
The sessions were well organised and created a calm, welcoming environment that helped build confidence and trust. It was lovely to see how attentive and nurturing the team were, and we could tell they genuinely cared about making the transition as smooth as possible.
Thanks to their kindness and professionalism, our child settled in much better than we expected and now looks forward to attending. We're very grateful for the positive experience and would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

My child, when she leaves the nursery, is happy that she had an exciting day, met friends, the staff were kind, and did exciting activities. She also mentioned that she likes the food there. For me, the staff are professional, kind and responsive to any queries and concerns, and are very helpful.

The nursery as a whole has great staff, a range of toys, nice big garden, good menu and CCTV which was important to me.
I would highly recommend, and will be sending all my children here with no doubts.
Thank you for your lovely compliment-it really means a lot and helps motivate the staff.
"My daughter has been at Monkey Puzzle Watford since she was one, and seeing her grow there over the last two years has been wonderful. It truly feels like a warm, cosy family atmosphere rather than just a nursery. The staff are incredibly friendly, and there's a lovely sense of community among the...
I'm constantly amazed by the variety of activities-just this week they've celebrated Valentine's, Chinese New Year, and Pancake Day! The food variety is great, and a special shout-out to Beth in management, who is always so warm and welcoming. Highly recommend to any local parents!"
Thank you so much for your lovely review. Your kind words truly mean a great deal to us.

Our experience with Monkey Puzzle has been fantastic. Welcoming staff and good with kids as well. My son has been excited to attend nursery because he felt very comfortable there and for that I'm grateful.

My son has been in the nursery from the age of 2. The experience has been positive, my son has grown into a bright, sweet young boy. I appreciate all of the staff here. Thank you from all of us.

My son has enjoyed his time at Monkey Puzzle. Everyday he comes back with interesting facts he's learnt like things fall down because of gravity force and kidneys clean our blood. It brings a smile to our faces every time he tells us about the interesting things he's learnt.

We are very grateful to the nursery for amazing year that our child spent with it. We appreciate all efforts of the staff to support the child's needs. There are a lot of activities in the nursery, children are well educated and entertained all the time. Our child was very reluctant to attend a nursery at the beginning, but staff did a great job to help him to adjust. Children are doing a lot of artwork, read books and do sports. The nursery organised school readiness period and helped pre-schoolers to get ready for school. We can recommend this nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are so pleased to hear how happy you are with our nursery and how we have helped your son get ready for school.
They have prepared my little girl so well for big school and she is really ready to make that transition.

Ritika – Nursery Owner
My name is Ritika and I am the proud owner of Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Watford.Previous I worked in the insurance industry for 12 over years acquiring a strong financial and management background before taking a career break to raise our two children, Mahika and Maanvi. I am very much a hands on mother with a great passion for quality childcare and the drive to run a successful business.
The idea came to me around three years ago when my kids enter into my life.Then I realise that’s work I really enjoy. I love their energy, honesty and their total love of everything fun and exciting. I really enjoy sharing new ideas and experiences with them. My hope is that I can create a fun, exciting and caring learning environment. I have a lot of patience, enthusiasm, creativity and enjoy helping children (and adults) to discover new things. I want to create an environment that is exciting and fun for the children and my staff. As long as children are given, love, support and encouragement they will succeed. Job satisfaction was the most important factor in choosing a career, and working with children, I believe, is the ultimate choice.”
I feel my skillset from my previous experiences will help to make this nursery a success and I cannot wait to see many more children taking their first steps and learning life skills in preparation for ‘big school’ and beyond. A full time Nursery Manager with the appropriate qualifications will be recruited to manage the day to day business operations, whilst I look after growing the business and managing the relationship with staff and parents.
