My little one loves going to this nursery. We started there in January 2023 and are going there for 5 days a week. She gets to do so much fun and engaging activities there with her peers and care workers. At the end of the day, she still has lots of energy left so I always know she has had a...
Overall, this is an excellent nursery which I would not hesitate to recommend to others.

We are delighted with Monkey Puzzle - the team are warm, caring and genuinely interested in the children and their development. They plan exciting experiences for them and we have noticed a significant improvement in our child’s confidence and pace of development since joining the nursery in January. Settling was handled sensitively and care was given to get to know our child and also us as a family. Any concerns or questions have been managed quickly and resolved and communication has been excellent from both management and the team in the room. An app is used to communicate basics (food, sleep, care) and to share the learning: we often receive several posts each day and lots of wonderful photos so it is easy to talk to our child about what he has been doing in the day. Daily handovers and observations show that staff know our child, his preferences and strengths and next steps well and we can see activities are planned to match these. Our child loves nursery now!

We’ve experienced two nurseries before joining Monkey Puzzle Hither Green and I’ve been bowled over by how fantastic it is here. The teachers pull out all the stops to create fun, engaging and educational activities for the children and my son’s language skills have blossomed since being here. We are very happy that we’ve had the good fortune to find places for both our preschooler and baby here!
We took a leap of faith by signing both of our children up to Monkey Puzzle at Hither Green during construction! We completely bought into their vision and ethos and the property is fabulous with a wonderful green space and Forrest School for the children to enjoy freely! Our eldest moved from a...
My youngest (12mths) joined in Jan, similarly he has a wonderful key carer and the most loving team in his room, he adores all of them - he charms them with his sloppy kisses and they shower him with affection which is lovely! All in all I'd highly recommend the setting and encourage parents to visit; the manager and the team are so genuine and caring and will put you instantly at ease.
Very positive experience and our son really loves going to nursery. We receive lots of daily updates on how our child is doing and what they are up to as well as what they are eating. Our son's key worker has been brilliant and our son is very positive about her and is excited to attend.

My daughter started in the preschool room when the nursery opened (moving from another nursery which I had used for 5 years for my daughter and her elder brother). My main reason for moving to Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Hither Green was the impressive outdoor space. I have been so impressed with Monkey Puzzle. My daughter settled in well and enjoys attending. The variety of activities provided on a daily basis are amazing. She particularly enjoys the weekly baking and the many trips out to local shops and parks. The staff have been very welcoming and have made strong bonds with the children and parents.

After looking around numerous nurseries I immediately had such a good feeling about this particular nursery. The space is large, bright and clean with a wonderful large outside space. The nursery workers have a great rapport with the children who seem in turn to adore them. The activities they do with the children are fun and original. The management have been brilliant and the communication we receive is excellent. It is a little bit expensive in comparison to other nurseries in the area but in my opinion, it is worth it as it’s head and shoulders above them. I would wholeheartedly recommend and I feel very confident leaving my little boy there knowing he has a fun-filled day ahead.
We joined the nursery in January and have been so happy with it, the staff are all lovely and very communicative and the range of activities is great! Our child is doing so well and seems so happy with it too!

“A teacher plants the seeds of knowledge, sprinkles them with love and patiently nurtures their growth to produce tomorrow’s dreams”
As a mummy of two busy little children, I understand and respect the importance of ensuring every child receives the best 'OUTSTANDING' childcare they deserve.
I believe children learn best when feeling safe and secure within their environment. Learning takes place through play, especially focused activities within their interests, engaging their imagination and expanding their knowledge of the world. Creating and extending opportunities for children through their play has always been my passion and I take great pride in supporting my team to educate our children in this way. I believe encouraging children to be confident, independent, and full of self-worth is key to giving them a firm foundation on which to build their future. I strive to ensure that communication is high-quality
I hold a Bachelor of Education Foundation Stage degree, Quality Teacher Status and qualifications in Business Administration and Management alongside completing my Operations Management Course within childcare. I have over 18 years of experience within the childcare sector which mostly is within Early Years. I have recently completed a Level 3 SENCO qualification. This helps me to ensure that all children are supported and included in our setting.
My vision is to create an outstanding learning environment where children feel safe, unique and valued.

I have worked in the early years sector for 21 years now, starting as a practitioner and working my way up to Nursery Manager. I hold a full level 3 qualification in early years, a level 5 in leadership and management and I am currently completing a level 4 in special educational needs.
I have a passion and commitment to providing the best quality education and care for all children, ensuring every child has the best journey in their most important formative years. I am always striving for the best and like to work closely with the staff team to ensure they have strong knowledge and understanding. I believe all children deserve the best possible start in their formative years and I am dedicated to achieving that for all.
I am a mum of one, my daughter is 12 years old and has Autism. As a mum, I understand how important the relationship between nursery and family is, as a mum of a child with SEND, I also know and understand how important inclusion is and will always strive to ensure our nursery is as inclusive as it can be and every child fulfils their potential.

My name is Mel, and I currently serve as the Deputy Manager and Wellbeing Lead at Monkey Puzzle Hither Green Day Care Nursery. My journey in childcare began when I earned my CACHE Level 3 Diploma in Child Care and Education, which ignited my passion for Early Years education. I firmly believe in the importance of laying a strong foundation for a child's future during their earliest developmental stages, which inspired me to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Years. For the past three years, I have been a proud member of the Monkey Puzzle family, where I've had the opportunity to work in a variety of childcare settings, including primary schools, nurseries, crèches, and as a nanny. Each of these experiences has enriched my understanding and approach to nurturing children's growth, helping me to set deep roots in this rewarding field.

Upon completing my university education in 2019 with a BA in Early Childhood Education and Care, I have gained extensive experience in the Early Years sector, serving as a Practitioner, Room Leader, SENCO, Forest School Lead, and a member of the Management Team.
As an individual with care experience, I understand the transformative influence of an empathetic and passionate practitioner on young children. I am wholeheartedly committed to delivering positive learning experiences and care for all children, particularly those who have encountered additional challenges. This commitment has driven me to qualify as a Level 3 SENCO, and I am dedicated to delivering inclusive provision.
I strive to empower my team with the knowledge necessary to deliver exceptional, inclusive, and enjoyable experiences for all children, visitors, and staff within our nursery.
