Good nursery. Feel my kids are well looked after and we get regular feedback. Never had concerns with the quality of child care. You can tell they spend time with children and help them develop.
Only downside is fees are fairly high and keep rising yearly.

Communication is excellent - I receive regular updates, photos and notes about her activities, meals and milestones, which gives us real peace of mind.

Amazing support from Asya, my son's key carer. Great and detailed reports showing his progress and next steps for development. We had a session after 6 weeks with Ms Asya which was very detailed. Overall great experience.

Very friendly and caring practitioners. Nursery facilities are good. I feel like my child is safe and well cared for here. The management is okay. Communication about activities could be better. Uniform is expensive and shouldn't be mandatory in my opinion.

Very satisfied with the level of care that the Montessori provides for our son. Our key person has been outstanding in caring for my son. My son's development has been noticeable, and he is learning a lot.

I have had my first one to one with my daughter's key carer who professionally took me through the different areas of my child development and analysed the areas that need to be reinforced. I am very happy to see how much they love their job and how happy is my daughter to go to school. So far so
good.

Very happy with my son's experience at Colindale Nido. He is learning a lot and loves being at nursery. The staff are attentive and I genuinely believe they care about the wellbeing of the children. The communication from the staff is very good, and they will always contact me when needed.

Our daughter has been attending Foundation Montessori Nido for 3months and we are pleased to hear she has settled in well and is expressing her character with the support from her teachers and piers. The nursery setting, culture and values meets our expectations and is a place where we feel our
daughter is valued and listened to. She has the opportunity to build her confidence and explore at her own pace. Her days are filled with various activities and play. We receive regular updates which is very assuring. The staff are all very bubbly, warming and love the children. The nursery is now a special place for our daughter!

We're really happy with everything at the nursery. The staff are so caring and supportive, and it's clear they genuinely care about the children. We've seen such great progression in our son, socially and in his development. He's always excited to go in, and staff always say he's had a good day.
We're very grateful for the nurturing and engaging environment they've created.

Quite a Good experience overall. The homework is a good initiative even for babies and toddlers. My son enjoys going to nursery, and the team is helpful. My son specifically likes the ladies in the cub team.

Our son really settled well with the staff, we felt confident trusting the nido staff with our son. They provided detailed updates daily on his development and achievements. It felt like our son had built relationships with the team.

I am really happy with the nursery in general. The staff has been really helpful with my daughter during her settling week and all the way through. My daughter has learned new words everyday and she has become more independent. We had a parent meeting for her progress this month, to talk about the
steps we need to take at home to help her have better communication and progress further. I really want to thank the nursery staff for their great job.

Friendly and professional staff who are always willing to help share tips and push the development of the child. Good facilities for children to learn through play and they host interactive sessions for the parents to also be involved. Highly recommended!

My daughter has been at the nursery for 2 month so far and we can see she has developed and is trying to be more independent. The staff are all friendly and keep me updated on how my daughter is getting on.

I found the meeting very useful to get an update on how my daughter is progressing at nursery. Hearing about her achievements and next few months goals. I would like to thank the whole team at the nursery for everything they do.

My husband and I went through several nurseries before we settled in Fountain Montessori Colindale. The first impression to us was that the nursery is clean and tidy and the staff are well trained. Also, it is the first time for us to understand the wills and ideas about Montessori Education. I was
impressed and agreed with the respectful of children's wills. My daughter feels safe and enjoys her time at school. I have seen her progress and happiness after going to nursery. I feel thankful to all the practitioners and caretakers they treated my daughter very nicely and swarm I hope all the staff can work happily and I recommend this nursery to other parents.

So far we are happy with the standards of care provided; our baby seems to have bonded well with the staff. He is usually happy when we pick him up. I noted he is well-fed and has frequent nappy changes - he is rarely hungry when we get home and never has any nappy rashes (this indicates good care).
The place is clean and we feel welcomed. I can see some changes since our baby started nursery, especially in the social aspect and being more confident when exploring. I would suggest a review of the nap times for the smaller babies - 1 scheduled nap a day is a big push (most babies under 12-14 months need 2 naps a day). We like the variety of the menus - considering it's a vegetarian school. Children are offered nutritious meals and snacks. Overall we are very happy with the nursery!

Fountain has proved to be a great stepping stone for our little one to start her nursery experience where she has become a confident and independent toddler. Fountain were very flexible from the outset to tailor the experience to suit our requirements which helped set them apart. The settling in
experience was smooth and carers have been personable and genuinely interested in our child. As a result, she now enjoys going to the Montessori!
