Little Ducklings Putney Bridge Nursery

My daughter used to attend another nursery. We moved her to Little Ducklings after she turned 2 to make our commute easier. We were a bit nervous to move her, but we realised very soon that we made a great choice. Since day 1, we have felt very supported, listened to and involved in the nursery life. Our daughter is always happy to attend nursery, has great friendships, feels very connected to the staff and has been learning many new skills. The learning opportunities are endless and the staff is so inventive in proposing new activities.

I am writing to express our sincere appreciation for the outstanding care that our children receive at the Little Ducklings Putney Bridge Nursery. Relocating our family to London was never easy, and finding a trustworthy and nurturing nursery with bilingual education for our children was our top priority. We are grateful to have found Little Ducklings Putney Bridge Nursery, a team of teachers whom we could confidently place our trust in. The professionalism, patience and genuine warmth of the teachers are evident. Seeing our children enjoying their time at the nursery and witnessing their continued progress give immense peace of mind especially during this major transition. I would highly recommend Little Ducklings Putney Bridge Nursery!

We are so happy with our nursery! In particular with the teachers, activities and food provided. Big paddock is huge huge plus! My girl comes home with new knowledges all the time and she really enjoy her time at nursery.

We could not be happier with our decision to enrol our son at Little Ducklings. The love, support and recognition of kids individual interests is unmatched and is consistent across the entire staff. The daily communication and photos really helps ease first time parents minds - it's so evident the joy and fun the children are having. Every day is different - with exciting activities that challenge the children to grow and develop, all in a playful manner.

Would recommend this nursery to absolute anyone.

Highly recommend.

Lovely small montessori with a small highly skilled staff. Children are happy and build bonds with staff quickly. Great outdoor area and lots of activities to keep them busy and learning.

Love the Mandarin lessons and outside play area. Nothing to fault. When we first looked around we thought the first room lighting was a little sad/dark.

I cannot praise Little Ducklings highly enough. It is such a lovely nurturing environment and everyone goes so far beyond to make our son happy, excited and challenged. Thank you.

My daughter is in love with both staff and other kids. She will be very sad to start school when the time comes. My daughter laughs and learns in huge quantities. Thank you very much. Highly recommend.

Would highly recommend Mandarin Ducklings if you want a caring environment where your baby ca thrive, learn develop and eat delicious food. Our daughter feels safe, loved by her caregivers and friends. Show & tell provide early opportunities to practice presentation skills.

My son settled really quickly and seems to like it here. He smiles when he sees the staff so I think they formed some sort of bond over the two months. We are overall happy with the nursery. However, we did have for instances where my son was taken to the outside area without shoes and hat. we had to write a complaint but since then things improved.

Mandarin Ducklings is an amazing, loving nursery, the early years education here is best in class and our child is very happy here. The staff are caring and attentive to all childrens needs, we would highly recommend Mandarin Ducklings to any parent.

My child is very happy about nursery. All is perfect.

The staff is really good. They are all very friendly and helpful. My daughter is feeling comfortable and happy there. The outdoor area is fantastic as well as all the extra activities they do. The Montessori classes have improved her skills as well as her concentration.

My daughter has come on so much since she has been attending. Absolutely amazing nursery. All food is cooked fresh on site with nutrition being the main focus, whilst getting children to eat a wide range of different foods.

Our daughter has been at Mandarin Duckings Putney Bridge since February 2024. We have seen her grow so much and felt so supported in the process. The bilingual with Mandarin, Montessori and outdoor focus has been perfect blend for us. We are so grateful for the communication with staff and great variety of learning and development as well as educational activities that our little one is exposed to.

Mandarin Ducklings is a fantastic, nurturing, and unique nursery, offering an excellent range of both learning activities, outdoor play and activities, and the most wonderful nutritious food. The staff are very caring and hold the hands of both parents and child together, much needed when settling in! The updates in the app are detailed and timely and each day the staff get the children out, come rain or shine. Most importantly, my son is very happy here.

We couldn’t be happier.

Our (now) 18-month-old daughter has absolutely thrived here. The outdoor space is brilliant and all of the teachers do a wonderful job with the unique combination of Montessori, Mandarin, and outdoor learning. Staff are delightful - they were so patient and caring as we were settling in and are very communicative with the parents. The in-house chef does a wonderful job too - the menus look delicious. Our daughter is always happy at drop-off - she runs in to see her friends and teachers which makes us happy parents. We would not hesitate to recommend!
