My son has been attending the nursery since Oct 24 and has been in both the baby and toddler room. Overall I am happy with the nursery - he is happy upon collection and has built good relationships with staff. Staff are supportive and understanding. He loves use of the garden and messy place. Improvements: More timely updates on app. More photos would be nice - although some uploaded on app would be good to see weekly.

I have to say as an anxious mother I have felt nothing but at ease with being here, my little one has flourished and everyday I see growth in her. The toddler room ensure the activities are always set up and well led, the children are always happy and handovers are always full of information and what an exceptional job they do with all the potty training too! My daughter is always happy when I see her on collection and gets excited to come in the mornings! Really enjoying my experience, and the girls are great! Hats off to the hard work they do every day.

My son has been attending this amazing cosy nursery since he was 2 Years and 5 month's. From the moment we first viewed the nursery we knew straight away that it would be the perfect caring learning environment for our son. The nursery is lead by a hands-on, professional, approachable, and fantastic Manager who works tirelessly to ensure that the nursery delivers a 5 star level of care, at all times. All of the carefully selected staff across the entire nursery are outstanding. Each caregiver (including kitchen staff) are extremely friendly, engaging, enthusiastic, professional, and polite. They are very passionate about what they do and genuinely care about our son, and all of the other children. Our son could only say yes and no when he started and now he is very talkative and full of confidence, thanks to their attentive care. We are kept up to date with our son's day to day activities on an app and are always given a very informative handover during pick-up. Highly Recommended!

My son started this month full time, he has quickly settled into the baby room. He is relaxed I am very confident leaving him at the nursery knowing that he is happy and well looked after. The handovers are thorough although I would love to see more clear pictures on the app. My son seems to love the staff he laughs and jokes a lot, although he's the youngest and not yet walking I hear hes making friends. As a parent, especially when you have to go to work, it's great having the app with the updates it gives piece of mind. You can also call up whenever to find out if everything is ok which has always been the case thus far.

My son is very happy at the nursery. I am especially pleased with the menu which is cooked fresh on site every day. My son eats all the food they serve and is being exposed to exciting new fruits and textures.

I have had an amazing experience using Purley's children nursery. The staff here are nothing but exceptional. They are professional in all aspects, kind, caring and very sufficient when it comes to caring for my son. The daily hand overs from the staff along with the logged reports keep me reassured that my son is in the best care along with his peers. The nursery is constantly finding new ways for the children to learn and interact with one another whilst keeping it fun for the children. Big thank you to all the staff.

We moved into the area recently and so our child had a lot of upheaval, however this nursery has made the move worth it. Our child has settled in so well at this nursery, the staff are everything that makes this place so great. The love and warmth each child receives consistently from all staff really shows in how happy the kids are. The staff work in partnership with parents, everyday I get a detailed handover on what my child did and ate, which really helps. The nursery building itself is great, with dedicated arts room and a huge outdoor garden area and a separate floor for naps. I'd highly recommend this nursery.

My twin girls started at the nursery when they were 7 months old and they have always been looked after with the utmost professionalism and care. The staff has always been very attentive and friendly and listened to our worries in regards to our daughter's development and they really helped our girls thrive. As parents we could not be happier to see our kids being well look after and supported and the girls absolutely love going to nursery and they adore all their teachers and peers.

I've taken my grandson to nursery a few times & I'm happy knowing he is always happy to be at nursery. We are both greeted with happy friendly smiley face which makes for a great start to the day. My grandson loves to show me where his bag an coat goes on his peg. He then runs to find his name to put on the board to say that he is present for the day, which he does without hesitation. All the staff happily say good morning to him & myself along with the rest of the children, which makes for a friendly atmosphere, I say goodbye but he has already gone to join in with activities, so he is comfortably. On leaving the office staff are also very friendly they always have time you if you need anything or just a friendly" Morning" On collecting him at the end of the day, he is still busy doing activities that he doesn't realise I'm there. A member of staff always tells you how he has been for the day & what he has eaten from breakfast, lunch & dinner plus snacks.Another great day at nursery.

I haven't had a lot of interaction with the nursery aside from picking my nephew up which has been pleasant. But I do know that my nephew loves his nursery, all of the staff, and has recently been reading new words that we didn't even know he could read!

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough! The staff are truly incredible-caring, patient, and dedicated. As a first-time parent, I was anxious, but they went above and beyond to reassure me, following my son's routine and making mornings smooth. Thanks to their kindness and support, he now absolutely loves going and is so happy there! The nursery provides a warm, nurturing environment with excellent activities that support learning and development. From sensory play and arts & crafts to early literacy and outdoor fun, every day is engaging and exciting. The staff's commitment and genuine love for what they do shine through in everything, helping my son grow socially and confidently. Seeing how much he enjoys nursery reassures me that we made the right choice. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, supportive, and stimulating setting. The staff make all the difference-thank you for everything!

My child joined the nursery as we moved areas and hence the transition was difficult. My child was coming from a nursery for 3 years and we were concerned abouther settling in a new nursery. From our first visit with Purley Children Nursery , we got the reassurance that this place would be comforting. The team did an amazing job with settling our child and making a lovable place that she is now soo excited to go everyday! Its the homely , personal touch thatthe team and the nursery's environment give to all which is reassurance. We are extremely happy with not just our childs' general well being but also the opprotunities like football for her to learn and develop her skills through different activities. Will surely and highly recommend it to all parents!

Great nursery, staff really friendly and very passionate about what they do. I would definitely recommend it to other people. The child loves going to nursery and always talks about how much she likes the people working there and has a good relationship with them.

From our first visit to Purley Children's Nursery, my husband and I felt completely at ease about leaving our son there. The nursery has a welcoming atmosphere with a spacious outdoor area and a wonderful sensory room that our little one adores. It's always clean and tidy, helping us feel confident about the environment. The staff are exceptional - attentive and genuinely caring which has made it easy for our son to settle in and thrive. We appreciate the strong sense of community and the team keeps us in the loop through an app with regular updates on meals, naps, and activities, sometimes with lovely photos! There is convenient parking and long opening hours which have all been a big plus for us. Since joining, our son's communication and emotional skills have really improved and we can't recommend Purley Children's Nursery highly enough!

My son thoroughly enjoys his days at nursery and loves being able to use the outdoor space. All of the staff are really friendly and they all make the effort to say hello and know the children's names. The staff and management communicate information well and really take the time to get to know the children as individuals.

Purley Children's Nursery has been fantastic with both my children. My daughter started post covid in January 2021 when she was 1 year old and has just finished preschool and gone to primary school. My son started in August 2023 and he was only 6 months but the staff settled him in so nicely that he never wanted to leave at home time. All the staff are fantastic and the management have made so many changes to make it a great environment for children to learn in. The nursery is also conveniently located with an easy drive-through system with parking, great opening hours and flexibility (these are things I would look for when choosing a nursery). Both my children loved their journey at Purley Day Nursery and I will be sad to leave when my son finishes in 3 years time! Thank you to all the staff who have been amazing!

I couldn't be happier with the care my children have received at Purley Children's Nursery. The staff are truly exceptional, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere with a family feel. Both of my children attended, and I have nothing but positive experiences to share. My son absolutely loves everyone there, and even now that my daughter is in school, she always looks forward to visiting during pickups. The staff are incredibly friendly and genuinely care about each child's wellbeing. I highly recommend this nursery to anyone seeking a nurturing and supportive environment for their child.

Purley Children's Nursery is honestly one of the best settings I have ever used. The staff go above and beyond. I can't think of one bad thing to say about this nursery! My child's development over his time here has been phenomenal. Thank you.

The people here make it a remarkable nursery. Our "lockdown baby" son has thrived here. Speech delays are no longer an issue, grown in confidence and social skills. They cook all their food on site, such a carefully organised and well-run place. Compassionate staff. Thank you.
