Magdalen Nursery - The Lodge

and progress, nutrition, activities and sense of community are fantastic - with the small setting it also is a great way to get to know many of the other parents and children too which provides a great basis for preparation for school.

is happy to go there every day, misses his teachers when he is not there and has made lovely friends. I couldn't ask for more. We'll both be very sorry to leave when he starts school.

in and feel at home really quickly. They are kind, loving and fully committed to the children. They put so much effort into different activities and are attentive, caring and patient. They must be exhausted at the end of every day - we really appreciate everything they do. My husband and I feel so comfortable leaving our daughter in their care.

a very strong bond with many of the staff.

All of the room leaders have been superb - dedicated and compassionate. The management team have also been great.

There are often exciting things happening - animal visits, themed days, parties etc and the staff really get into it.

We are having a second child soon and will certainly be hoping to send her to Magdalen as well!

him to learn more. I have been so impressed with things he has done or said multiple times, purely because he learned those in nursery.
The nursery feels like a small family, where all the staff knows every child's name. I love going in with my son and hearing so many people greet him. They have a lot of activities, toys and books.
The management are helpful and very responsive. They have been guiding us through the challenges of Covid and multiple changes to the procedures.
Overall, I would highly recommend this nursery.

at nursery so it really is a team and "wider-family" effort.
The staff have been wonderful at nurturing my son's strengths and are really encouraging to help him flourish in the area of sports - there is a large outdoor area and they have helped him with balancing, climbing, scooting and golf. They are focused on healthy meals and our son is a happy eater; he is comfortable trying lots of different foods at our family meal times: I believe this is down to the variety of food that he is offered at Magdalen. We are amazed at what he learn's each week and would highly recommend Magdalen to any parent. Magdalen, you are incredible! Thank you.

We love the cosy rooms as well as the great outdoor space which is fairly rare in London nurseries. They are also fantastic at uploading pictures/videos of activities which is a great insight into what the kids get up to! In summary, we really couldn't be happier with the setting

welcome. We will always be grateful to the nursery for how they helped our little ones settle in and for everything they have done for them since.

our son's milestones and how we can help him develop further. The staff are really caring and the activities they propose are always varied and well thought out.

nursery itself has a beautiful garden which the kids love and they seem to spend a lot of time playing outside which is fantastic!

In the older rooms, they really help develop your child and get them ready for school.

I couldn’t recommend the Lodge highly enough.
