We love the Magic Roundabout Kennington! - The staff are professional, friendly and warm - The premises are spacious, welcoming and very clean, with a large outdoor area - Communication is excellent through the Famly app, we always know what our daughter is up to, what she's eaten, how long she slept for etc. - There is a range of activities every day to keep the children stimulated, happy and learning - The food is included and very varied - my daughter loves it - There is a real personal touch to everything they do, for example every staff member (even from other rooms) remembered my daughter's birthday! I couldn't recommend it highly enough!

An absolutely great nursery, my child seems to be very happy, she is always smiling and very jolly. If that's anything to go by, I think she is happy, and if she's happy, then I'm happy. So yeah, a really great nursery.

Our son has been attending the nursery since August 2025 and we are really pleased. He is visibly happy there whenever we come to collect him and in the photos that the nursery sends. Since joining the nursery, his walking has improved and he is more independent in self-feeding. More importantly, it is obvious he feels safe and well looked after and he often jumps from my arms in the morning towards the staff, with a smile. The atmosphere is loving, welcoming and professional and I couldn't recommend the nursery or the team behind it more.

Out daughter started at MRN at 7 months in the baby room. She has been there for over 18 months and is so happy. I have always felt like my child is safe, cared for and really supported in her progression. She is such a sociable child and I'm sure it's because of her amazing nursery experience and the confidence all the staff have given her. I couldn't recommend MRN more.

Our son has been at MRN Kennington since he was 8 months old, and from settling in week has loved it there completely. It feels very much a home away from home, the welcoming and gentle staff in the baby room being a huge part of that. He is comfortable exploring the room, learning to crawl up and down the 2 steps safely, exploring different textures and games, learning to be gentle with other babies. The constant staff is a huge plus, knowing other nurseries have agency staff regularly and the kids don't get such familiarity with the adults there, whereas at MRN you can tell the staff is like family to each other and they know our son really well. We like that there is a routine even for the baby room, but they are flexible with it as the young ones might not all fit into one nap days yet. Even going beyond expectations for his medical needs. We are so grateful for mums in the areas to have recommended MRN to us.

Both my children attended MRN Kennington; the older from the age of 2.5 until she started school; the younger from the age of 1 to just after she turned 3. It is a warm, nurturing environment, and I strongly felt that that ethos was in the nursery's DNA, and instilled from the top down. They are at the heart of a caring community and both my children and I felt very happy there.

Fully recommend it, we had our kid at Magic Roundabout Nursery Kennington for 2+ years and we feel so lucky to have had such a good experience. The staff, from management to the rooms, have always been very attentive, making sure we understood the development of our kid, how they were developing and how we could tackle the challenges we were facing. And our kid was also very happy to go in, running into their room the moment they were inside the nursery. We were also lucky to meet a lot of parents who have helped us build a community for our little person.

We loved this nursery so much. The staff are so friendly and really made our daughter feel at home there. They always keep us updated with regular pictures on the app so we can see what she's up to. They're also really flexible and accommodating and made the nursery transition really easy. Very sad to be moving away from the area and having to find a new nursery.

A lovely nursery with a bunch of wonderful people running it. I always knew my little guy was looked after, in each room he always formed a new wonderful close relationship with a staff member and the head of the nursery was always there to support him. My little one attended from 7 months old until 3.5 years old and I can't recommend this nursery enough.

I do recommend this nursery. It is a very busy one with long operating hours. The management team are very friendly and are always accessible and they solve the problems. The staff are good. My daughter joined them for two and half years and she developed a lot there. I was feeling very safe. They serve Halal food which was a big advantage.

I am really happy with Magic Roundabout Nursery. This is my 3rd child attending. I love how the staff cater to each child's individual needs especially during settling periods or transitions. The staff are very informative about your child's day and always keep you up to date with their development. This is a really good nursery with a good management team who I will recommend to all, which I do often.

My kids went there several years ago and they really enjoyed it. I didn’t have one problem. My son is now in the baby room and he settling in just fine. The one thing I would say is if they could let the babies do more activities, not just Fridays.

Really impressed when we came for an open day with our eldest. The manager was very clear on their philosophy and the development of the children. A lot of the way the nursery was set up made sense and all our questions and any concerns were answered. The rooms are well-equipped with a lot of variety of activities. The staff and helpers really do seem to care for the children and our kids have taken too many of them. Food is also great from what I can tell. The best testament is that our kids are always very happy to go to nursery and almost always come home with a big, tired smile.

My boy has been joining Magic Roundabout Nursery for about a year now, he loves everyone there and he has developed lots of living skills. Always happy and sometimes even doesn't want to go home. Staff pay lots of attention to all children as parents we are very happy and confident to leave our child to learn Magic Roundabout. Thank you.

Our son is developing so much since he started here. The staff are amazing, they always have a smile ready for you and cuddles for your little one. The baby room is very well equipped and recently refurbished, it is a very safe place for the little ones to crawl, explore and move around. Really recommended.

Our baby started at twelve months in the baby room - the staff are very experienced and he settled in well within six weeks. Our toddler now has good connections with the staff in his room and is developing in confidence. He's always really happy when we see him playing even at the end of a long day. There is a good variety of food offered throughout the day, cots for young ones to sleep in and a small outdoor playground on site.

Our son has been attending for six months. Staff have been wonderful helping him to adjust and he is very happy there. There is a lovely family feel - he seems to be known by all the staff. Really great outside play area - much bigger than other nurseries in the area.

Our son started this nursery a few months ago. He left a previous nursery for various reasons. We absolutely love Magic Roundabout Nursery Kennington. We have had no reservations from the beginning. Our son settled in very quickly and he doesn't even wave goodbye, he's so excited to be there. Management are fantastic and very friendly. The staff in the baby room are wonderful. Trained for a high standard and you can see they want to be there. Low attrition rates and great value for what you pay. I would 1000% recommend this nursery to other parents and any future child of ours will definitely be enrolled here. Thank you for reassuring us and looking after our son.

My son started three days a week at the beginning of November (11 months old) He has settled in so well and has been looked after amazingly by all the wonderful staff. I feel so at ease and comfortable when I have to leave him each morning. Would recommend it to all my mummy friends.

The nursery has been really super for our son. They managed transition away from us well and also his transition from the baby room to the pre-toddlers group. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and offers him stimulation that we can't in our flat. He seems genuinely happy to go in.
