Funky Owls Nursery Colliers Wood

Our son started in the Yews room at 10 months old. From our first tour, the warmth of the team and management, especially Rahima, gave us complete confidence to trust them with our baby.

When he moved to the Sycamores room at 18m, Hayley and Mothika's incredible bonding skills helped him quickly overcome the usual toddler transition struggles. He loves them so much that he giggles saying their names at home and gets excited to get dressed when we mention going to see them. Seeing him happily hold the practitioners' hands at drop-off brought us immense peace of mind. We can't thank Hayley and Mothika enough for his communication and emotional growth. Hayley even learned words in our native language for our bilingual son!

He recently moved to the Willows room, and thanks to Rahima and the Willows team's personal support, he settled in beautifully. After 1.5 years here, we feel incredibly lucky to have found this nursery. Sharon, Rahima and all the practitioners are amazing!

My daughter has been at Funky Owls since 2924 joining in the baby room at the young age of 10 months. The team have been fantastic with her and she loves nursery and is growing into a kind and sociable young toddler. I am very grateful to the whole team.

Our son has recently moved up to the Sycamores room and has settled in so well. We have really seen his confidence grow, and he is developing so quickly - he seems to be learning new words every day!

All of the staff at the nursery are so friendly and welcoming, and we have been especially impressed with Hayley and Mothika. Their kindness, energy, and approach with the children have been fantastic and have made such a positive difference.

Overall, we have had such a positive experience with the nursery, and we are looking forward to seeing our son continue to thrive there.

We couldn't be happier with Funky Owls. We have had our child there now for 8months and he loves it. The amazing staff, particularly Hayley and Mothika in Sycamores have been incredible and communicate really well with us. Our little boy adores them!

My only reservation was the lack of outdoor space but the children go on excursions every day and get plenty of time outdoors so this is no longer a worry.

The quality of the food is very good and our fussy child asks for seconds so they must be doing something right.

We are very grateful to Funky Owls and would recommend them to anyone

It's been amazing to watch my child grow, learn and come home excited to share what they have done at nursery. Your dedication and kindness have made such a positive impact. We truly appreciate the nurturing environment you've made. Our child feels safe, confident and happy every day. The confidence and joy she found in her classroom will stay with her for years to come, and for that we are deeply grateful.

Funky owls has looked after both of my children, for the past 5 years. Both children despite having totally different personalities have loved their time here. Although the nursery doesn't have a garden the children go out daily for enriching adventures, which I actually think is so much better than them being stuck on nursery grounds and looking at the same ole garden area. The kids here go to farms, museums, china town, explore all of the local parks and rivers, do street walks at Christmas to see all of the lights. It has a real community feel and I'd happily recommend this nursery as a great safe place for your children to learn. There's also sports coaches, musicians, reptiles farms that visit the nursery and each year they hatch their own chicks. The staff are amazing to pull all of this off.

Overall, we have had a very positive experience at Funky Owls. Our room leader had kept us informed, as well as the daily diaries. She is very good at remembering any changes to routines. All the staff seem friendly & caring & appear to get on well with each other. I like that they do a lot of trips & our daughter is developing well.

Very happy with Funky Owls!

Our daughter started at Funky Owls at 9 months and has now been there for around 4 months - she absolutely loves it. The staff are friendly and our daughter always comes home happy and fulfilled at the end of the day. She naps well there, eats well and has a wide variety of activities with other babies and teachers to keep her stimulated and excited.

We were very sad to leave Funky Owls and still miss it. It is a lovely nursery setting.

The nursery is great and my child thoroughly enjoys attending. My child has developed great relationships with their teachers and this in turn has aided in their personal and social development. They have a wonderful range of activities that they do with the children on a daily basis and despite not having an outdoor space they make good use of the nearby parks and facilities such as the library. They also do trips for the older children farther afield which helps develop their independence and use of public transport.

At Funky Owls Nursery my one-year-old son has settled in well thanks to the very well-trained and loving staff. They are very patient and able to create a warm and nurturing environment. They do a variety of activities and children look really happy and engaged purposively. The premises are clean and safe. They do not allow mobiles inside and they do not have any plastic toys, furniture or equipment for the children to use. Everything they have is wooden which is really appreciated.

Funky Owls is absolutely brilliant. Our daughter started nursery there at 10 months and the staff were amazing at making both our daughter and us as comfortable as possible with the transition. They were very thoughtful in terms of settling techniques and what is most comforting for each child. Our daughter now loves nursery. She is very happy around all the staff and loves waving to them when she comes in in the morning. She enjoys all of their outdoor excursions and I'm always very impressed by the variety of trips they go on, which definitely makes up for the lack of outdoor space. The nursery has also really helped her development. Since being there, she has started walking and her speech has really improved, which is down to an engaged and interactive staff. I couldn't recommend the nursery and its team more highly.

Excellent nursery - very approachable friendly staff. Perfect style and very active in taking the children out of the nursery setting.

Our experience with Funky Owls has been brilliant. The staff there are super friendly and genuinely care for the children. Our daughter really enjoys her time there and is in great spirits afterwards. The food is great and varied and always lets them taste new foods and cuisine. There is no outside space but they make up for this with daily outside trips - helping our daughter be a competent and confident walker. She loves the activities they put on and her learning and development have really been supported by the staff there.

Very impressed with Funky Owls. My son enjoys his time here and the staff have been knowledgeable and empathetic when helping him settle in. Despite no gardens, the children go out each day and explore the local area.

The only downside is the staff turnover, we hate to see our favourite staff move on!

Our daughter settled in really well. The staff are friendly and caring. We love the daily updates and photos on the app. We feel our daughter has learned a lot since starting.

My son has been at Funky Owls since he was just 9 months old. I have seen him grow with the nursery every day especially now in the Willows room. The nursery is lovely warm and inviting. Every day there is a new activity on experience planned and he seems to be really thriving from the variety. Our regular catchups with the nursery workers are informative and reassuring. They are very good communicators and efficient.

My son started at Funky Owls when he was just 6 months old. From the beginning it was easy to settle, he was always happy to stay there and they took such good care of him. Fast forward and he is nearly 4 years old now, sadly leaving for his big school, but for sure he will miss so much the time he spent with his pals at Funky Owls. They supported me when I needed extra days, shared concerns and supported my boy to be the best he could be. I could not recommend more.
