Lovely staff who obviously care for the kids.
Facilities are always clean and our child is happy to go in each day.
The team were extremely kind when our kid first started so I think they made the transition so much easier.

The outdoor space and position within the sports ground really sets this nursery apart and has been very beneficial for our son. The children spend lots of time in all weathers on the decking, the lovely 'big garden' with play equipment, and the sports ground field. Indoor activities are also
thoughtful, with plenty of toys for free play and a range of teacher led activities too. I've been impressed by how creatively the staff run with the children's interests to provide follow on activities (pretend pirate play in the garden being picked up as an opportunity to build a pirate ship and draw a treasure map, for example). The staff teach strategies for turn taking, sharing, and managing disagreements effectively, and the classroom routines (circle time listening to stories, lining up to go outside etc) have built my son's independence and readiness for school. Management are accommodating which is also a bonus. The nursery has exceeded our expectations in many ways and we are very happy.

Our family has been part of this nursery since our son joined at 12 months old, and now our daughter attends too. The setting itself is idyllic - a huge, secure outdoor space where children can explore, play and learn, alongside well-equipped, thoughtfully designed rooms that support every stage of
early years development. But what really sets it apart is the culture they've built among the staff and parents. The team is not only highly experienced and genuinely caring, they put so much heart into the relationships they form with families too. The communication is excellent and they go above and beyond to create memorable moments throughout the year. It's clear that every member of staff is dedicated to making a lasting, positive impact - and they do it beautifully. Highly recommended.

Our baby has had a really positive experience at DSG. We love how the nursery is tucked away from the main road - it's a lovely setting away from the traffic in Dulwich. But more importantly, the care shown for our baby by the staff has been amazing to see - they clearly care for him and are
invested in his development.

What caught my interest with this nursery was the green space it is on, and how it's away from main roads. Healthier air, being outdoors and safe were some of my decision points about choosing a nursery.
My child has been attending the nursery since she was 16 months old, she had developed bonds
with the key people at the nursery and now she knows them by name and has made friends with the other children and points them out to me when we see them!
Her expanding vocabulary and her ability to make sentences now has been great to see and hear. At the end of the day hearing about her day spent singing along or playing with her friends is rewarding in itself.

This is currently the second time we have a child at Partou Dulwich Sports Ground.
It was an easy decision for us, as the nursery has delivered a consistently positive experience. We can clearly see how the nursery helps accelerate our childrens' development, and has played a large part in shaping
their outgoing, happy and curious personalities.
I warmly recommend this nursery.
I believe their strength is younger children, up to pre school age.

This is a lovely nursery. The staff are superb - really enthusiastic, helpful and kind, and the management is done very efficiently. The location is also great, next to a big sports field. Both of my boys are very happy here.

We have been so thrilled with the care that Partou DSG have given to our 1 year old daughter since she started there a couple of months ago. The staff are wonderful and I fully trust them with our daughter - it makes the world of difference dropping her off knowing that she will get such a good
level of love, care and attention each day. The management is also great, communicative and always receptive to feedback.
I would recommend the nursery to any parent in the area!

Nelly’s DSG is such a friendly and welcoming environment. The staff genuinely care about the children and support them at a personal and developmental level, as well as with more educational aspects such as teaching them numbers and letters.
There is a new activity set up every morning which
always promotes learning, whilst being fun and collaborative. The activities are so varied and imaginative too.
The children are supported to be independent, but they are also encouraged to interact with their peers, helping them to deal with disputes and fostering friendships.
The days are very well structured with the right balance of adult-led activities and free play.
Our daughter loves it at Nelly’s DSG and we feel so confident and content knowing she’s being so well looked after.

Really pleased with the overall experience at Nelly’s Nursery - DSG. From the wide range of activities, that encourage both play and are educational, to the very attentive and patient staff members, who have also supported my child as well as encouraged independence. I really enjoy the 1one-to-one
attention that my child gets when new activities/skills are learned.

We started at Nelly's Nursery DSG in March, my now 2-year-old son had settling sessions for one month and then started full-time. I am grateful to the kind, patient and experienced staff at Nelly's for putting our child's needs first and taking good care of him. We know that he is first and foremost
safe at Nelly's and any issues they see will be raised in person and promptly allowing us to find a solution together. The grounds are safe and there is a lot of space for children to play and run around. Parents collect their children from their rooms, there is great communication with the staff and manager. Our son's language and physical skills have developed very quickly due to all the activities they plan. Thank you!

Nelly's Nursery - DSG is a fantastic nursery. Our little one loves it there.
The garden and rooms are amazing and the staff are so caring.
21 March 2023
Very happy with the nursery, my son has been attending for over a month and the manager and the key person has been brilliant at helping him settle in. Very good communication and regular updates are provided to parents. The nursery also has a lovely outside space which my son loves. They do lots of
painting and messy play as well as French classes once a week. Most importantly the staff have all been extremely patient with my son. Highly recommended.
02 March 2023
The team in the main room are excellent, all are enthusiastic and allow my child opportunities to develop her own interests and encourage engagement with activities throughout the day. My daughter has thrived - she is confident and a curious learner and enjoys discussing her imaginative ideas with
the adults in her room. Targets for progress/development are realistic but provide a challenge and communicated regularly with home.
02 March 2023
Since my son started in September I have seen a great improvement in all areas and I'm really happy with everything, from the support given by all the members of staff and my son is happy attending every day.
23 September 2021
The team at Nelly's Nursery - DSG are the complete nursery. The staff are knowledgable, organised kind and affectionate. They create thoughtful and fun activities, they give children individual attention while encouraging independence. Their attitude is how can we help, no matter what the situation
and the space is light, bright and interesting for children to learn by exploring.

Our little one is very happy at Nelly's Nursery. All the staff are professional and friendly and he comes home having learned social skills, educational games, and improved communication. The location is a particular positive, as is the food.

lot of support with settling in. I’m very fond of the staff at Nelly's and so pleased we chose DSG.
