Review from R C (Mother of Child) published on 7 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We feel very lucky that our son attends The Croft Bexleyheath. He has been attending since he was 9 months old and he absolutely loves it! I was nervous for him to start nursery as a first-time mum but he's settled in so well, which is down to the lovely staff. We had an amazing key worker in his first room and the same for the second. Not only do I feel reassured that he is safe and being well looked after whilst attending, but we have also noticed how far he is coming with his communication and physical development. The staff work very hard and the hard work certainly pays off! We can't thank the staff enough for all they do, from the key workers to the management and the kitchen staff. Our son has some food allergies and The Croft have been so professional in handling this and we have not had any problems at all. I was recommended this nursery by another mum and I would certainly recommend it to any other parents.

We cannot recommend the croft enough. All the team are fantastic and have been a huge support in our daughter’s development.
Thank you to all the team for putting us at ease each time our daughter has transitioned rooms.

A big thank you to one of the staff members for being an amazing key worker!

Overall Experience

I was a bit reluctant to move my little one to another nursery but we had to as we moved houses and I am very happy we moved him to Croft in Bexleyheath. The team is lovely and my son's key person genuinely cares about his development and well-being. He is in love with her and constantly talks about her at home. We don't go to nursery, we go to his keyworker!

Overall Experience

I don’t know where to start other than to say I cannot fault The Croft! One of the staff members is incredible in Tiny Tigers, and his previous key worker in Baby Bears was equally amazing. My son adores them both. I’m beyond pleased that my son attends this day nursery. Having previously tried a different nursery prior to these, to say the difference in the 2 is outstanding is an understatement. My son lights up every morning going to nursery and as a first-time Mum, I cannot be reassured enough that he is in a home away from home. Each member of staff is lovely, friendly, helpful and brilliant with the children. They keep you updated via an app on your child’s progress, they ensure to update you on nappy changes, what food has been had and sleep times. Thank you all for your hard work! We love The Croft!

Review from Shelley C (Mother of Child) published on 17 April 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My first-born daughter attended The Croft Bexleyheath from the age of 2. After a bad start at a different nursery, we decided to take her out and send her to the Croft, it was the best decision we made. The team at the Croft made her feel so welcomed, she clicked with every key worker she had and left the Croft ready to start school. My second daughter has been at the Croft since she was 9 months old. To say she is thriving is an understatement. She doesn’t look back once the door opens in the morning. The staff have provided additional help when my daughter’s physical development was delayed, putting milestones in place and setting special tasks to push her in the right direction. She’s now where she needs to be. I would highly recommend The Croft Bexleyheath.

Overall Experience
My son absolutely loves coming to nursery. His teachers in class LION 2, are wonderful with my son. They are so encouraging and have really helped him to thrive in his development. He is welcomed every morning with a huge hug, and my boy just runs into their arms.

The app is great for receiving updates on his day and development. It definitely gives me peace of mind throughout the day, knowing how he is doing. I would always highly recommend this nursery to other parents. We have never had any reason to fault the nursery or the staff. Everyone is lovely and supportive.

Review from Georgina P (Mother of Child) published on 14 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has been attending for 6 months now and the progress and development they have made in their upbringing has been phenomenal.
The staff are absolutely wonderful and I have always had a breakdown of my child's day, plus we have regular communication from the nursery surrounding any changes. I cannot find a single fault with any of the staff! I love just how safe and secure the nursery and staff are, if they don't recognise you, you're not coming in, and I find that brilliant in the safety of my child!

This is a wonderful nursery, with a huge space in each of the designated rooms, and the outdoor space is fantastic, they follow a preschool-type routine with a lot of learning activities alongside playtime, whilst also finding time for those who need a nap. Plus all the little toilets for potty training are great (even private rooms for those who are shy!) I would highly recommend this nursery and want to thank all the staff involved in my child's time at Croft!

Overall Experience

Our son had just started nursery full time, and the team have been so welcoming to us as the parents but were also wonderful settling our son in - both the admin team and the key workers. He clearly loves his time at the Croft with all its indoor activities and outdoor facilities - we love seeing all the progress pictures. Really pleased with the variety of healthy food options offered as well.

Review from J T (Mother of Child) published on 2 October 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We have nothing but positive things to say about The Croft Bexleyheath.
Our eldest daughter has been attending since it first opened, and now our youngest daughter has started and loves it just as much.
The staff are all fabulous and are so welcoming and attentive to both children and parents, and nothing ever seems too much trouble.
We love hearing what the girls have been up to as it always sounds so fun but educational at the same time, with our eldest singing the alphabet in French and telling us about planets.

In summary, The Croft is 10/10, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it!

Review from Carmen M (Mother of Child) published on 22 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been in The Croft for over two years and we could not be more pleased. The building and facilities are unrivaled to other nurseries in the area, being both spacious and bright, as well as warm and welcoming, with a large and impressive outdoor area.
What really sets The Croft apart from its competitors is the enthusiasm of the staff; every day they open the door with big smiles and even bigger cuddles. I know as soon as they close the door my daughter is in safe and loving hands, teaching her valuable life skills, as well as plenty of playtime and fun activities. We have loved the additional classes offered (included in the fees) including Bopping Bunnies.

The menu offered is varied and nutritious and perhaps the only place my picky toddler will eat a vegetable! Would thoroughly recommend.

Review from E G (Mother of Child) published on 16 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has just graduated from The Croft Nursery. What can I say, what a wonderful nursery. Such a warm, caring, supportive and welcoming environment. My daughter felt safe and loved and I felt happy sending her there. Not only this, my daughter learnt so much and they certainly exceeded our expectations with what they taught. She learnt French and Spanish, she can sign A-Z, write her full name without support and count to 50 to name a few. A complete contrast to another nursery my son went to. I cannot recommend this nursery enough, the staff are so attentive and work very hard to communicate any changes and are always looking for ways to improve. We are all very sad to leave and feel very grateful we found this wonderful place for our little one. The children have access to a fantastic outdoor space in which they spend a lot of time, this was really important for us too, Thank you The Croft Nursery for everything!

The Croft Nursery has been the best nursery for our son. After having an upsetting experience at a different nursery, the Croft staff were all so kind, understanding and supportive. Everyone we have encountered there has been thoughtful and, as a parent, you feel reassured your child is cared for in the best possible way. Thank you so much! Highly recommend. With thanks to all the Giant Giraffe team, his key person, the Giant Giraffes room leader and the manager.

Overall Experience

My two children attend the preschool room 3 days a week and they have settled in so well. The staff are incredibly attentive and with amazing communication. Every day, we get given a detailed handover of our children of how their day went. I have noticed a huge improvement in both of my children in terms of their potty training, communication and social skills. My picky eater daughter is now eating different meals, something that I have always struggled with and now she is trying new foods for the first time without getting upset.

Overall Experience

The nursery is clean and well presented with a lovely set up in the rooms plus an engaging garden for the children to play. The staff are warm, friendly and caring towards everyone. My child has special educational needs and the nursery has helped massively in helping him progress in his development which makes us so grateful. The nursery is very compliant with procedures and very professional in the way the nursery is run. My child enjoys coming to nursery and always has a massive smile when we arrive at the nursery, then runs to the door excitedly. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a nursery in the Bexleyheath area.

Our experience with the staff and management has been fantastic!
Our child, now aged three, has been in the Croft Nursery since one and a half years old, is really happy, has made friends and in the morning our son runs into the nursery!
When we pick up our son in the afternoon, he is really happy and loves sharing with us what he did during the day.

Two weeks before our son turning three years old, he came home singing the ABC song, from A to Z! This is just one of many examples of how pleased I am with my boy's development at Croft Day Nursery.

My daughter has been attending Croft Day Nursery Bexleyheath for just over a year and I am so happy with how she is developing socially and with her learning and this is all down to the fantastic staff that put so much effort in providing for each child’s own developmental needs. My daughter absolutely loves coming to nursery and looks forward to her going each day. There are a lot of nurseries out there but here the staff truly go above and beyond for our children.

Overall Experience

My Daughter was eight months old when she first started at Croft Day Nursery - Bexleyheath and it's safe to say I was an extremely nervous Mum. She was a baby born in lockdown and therefore hadn't spent any time away from me. The thought of sending her to nursery filled me with dread. However, from day one all of the staff were extremely supportive and did all that they could to ensure she settled in quickly. Nothing is too much for the team and all of the staff are caring and attentive. The nursery itself is always clean and tidy and has a lovely garden area. Every day is filled with fun and educational activities and I love that we get sent observations and photos so we can see what they have been up to. My daughter has now been there over a year and has excelled in so many ways. She goes in happy every day and has built amazing bonds with other children and the staff. I can honestly say the key workers know her so well and truly show care and consideration for her and as a parent that is all I can ask for.

Croft Day Nursery - Bexleyheath is one of the best nurseries in the Bexleyheath area, having sent our daughters to 2-3 other nurseries. The nursery itself is spacious and facilities are new and purposeful. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and most importantly they show genuine kindness to the children they are looking after. I’d highly recommend The Croft to any other parents.
