My experience with this nursery couldn't be better. The staff are friendly, attentive, and caring, and my daughter has formed lovely bonds with her teachers. The facilities are well maintained, including a new soft play area available to families on certain times. They introduced a curriculum focused on strong values and effective learning, encouraging children to explore and grow. An app keeps parents updated with photos, incidents, and development reports. The catering service was recently improved to offer a healthier, well-balanced menu. The transition was handled thoughtfully, with events for parents, feedback sessions, and menu adjustments based on what children enjoyed. The nursery also organises charity events, showing real community spirit. Communication is excellent-management keeps parents informed and responds to concerns. With opening hours from 8am to 6pm, it's ideal for many families. Overall, the nursery is well managed, structured, and committed to high-quality care.

I am very happy I chose Abacus Ark for my child 2 years ago. Staff is professional, friendly and so creative. My kid is very stimulated and has learned so much. There are many initiatives to involve parents as well and there is a lovely softplay area that can be also hired for events. The fees are also fair. We are so satisfied that we chose to stay with Abacus even after moving slightly farer from the area. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a safe and nurturing nursery!

We've had a wonderful experience with Abacus Ark Nursery School in Wandsworth since our son started at 8 months old. The entire team made the transition smooth and reassuring for both us and our child. Every staff member is warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about early childhood care. The nursery offers a rich variety of age-appropriate activities that support learning, creativity, and social development. Our son has thrived in this nurturing environment, gaining confidence, curiosity, and independence. Communication is excellent-staff regularly share updates, insights, and sweet moments from his day. We especially value the inclusive approach, including the use of multiple languages like Spanish, which has enhanced his early language skills. The nursery is not only safe and well-organised but also full of love, laughter, and learning. We feel so lucky to have had Abacus Ark Nursery School in Wandsworth as our son's first learning environment and recommend it wholeheartedly.

We are so grateful for the wonderful care and support our daughter has received at Abacus Ark. The staff are kind, patient, and truly dedicated to the children's wellbeing and development. Over her time here, she has grown in confidence, made lovely friendships, and discovered a real love for learning and exploring. The nursery has always felt warm, welcoming, and safe, and we've been kept informed and involved every step of the way. As she moves on to primary school, we know she is ready for this next stage because of the brilliant foundation she's had here. We couldn't have asked for a better start to her early years

My daughter started in Abacus Ark when she was 10 months old and she settled quickly and well in baby room. The staff are friendly, hardworking and patience with the children. They have created a lovely home environment in the nursery, where I know my daughter is safe. Parents are welcome and nursery organise special activities for both such as Mother's day, Easter, Father's Day or a trip to the zoo in Battersea. My daughter is happy and engaging with activities where they support her to develop some of her milestones and makes her first steps into independence. There are good communication with parents via their app with information about her routine as well as photos updated every single day. The nursery offer extra curricular activities to the children providing a range of learning opportunities such as Music, Drama or Hartbeeps (multisensory and musical classes) and my daughter love it. Thank you so much for everything you do to stimulate her learning!

I concur with the many other positive reviews for this wonderful nursery. Our son has been there for 3 years and we've had the most wonderful time at AA. To the points other parents have made in their reviews, I can only add that the staff almost become a part of our families, such strong is the connection they establish with not just the kids, but also their parents. We will really miss them when our son moves to school this September. Sincere thanks for all that you have done for us and our little ones!

I have just wonderful words to spend for the nursery and staff. I saw my daughter growing up and improve day by day since she was 7months old until now that she is 3y, thanks to them. Great knowledge and empathy is what makes this nursery fantastic!

We have been parents at Abacus Ark for over five years and we couldn't be more grateful to have found this amazing nursery and community for our family. We started in the baby room pre-Covid so in some ways it feels like a lifetime! The staff have always been so lovely - some of whom we've known this whole time. While we moved to the other side of Putney a few years ago, we continued to send both of our children to Abacus Ark as there is nowhere else that is as nurturing and offers so many extracurricular activities to enrich their learning. They also do a great job a creating a community within the nursery with weekend social events for parents to meet and children to play with their friends. Our kids have grown into confident, happy little people and we will forever be grateful for the love and care they received at Abacus Ark and how well they've been prepared for school.

Abacus Ark (Wandsworth) is an all-around great nursery, we have both children attending now. Our eldest will be leaving next year and will be very sad to go. The staff are great, the activities are fun and engaging, and there are lots of outdoor outings! I would highly recommend.

My two daughters attend Abacus Ark Wandsworth and both love it. Our eldest has been with them since she was a baby and I couldn't be happier with the nursery. She goes in every day with a beaming smile on her face! The staff are all so wonderful, committed, and kind, they care for the kids they look after! The nursery listens to the parents and goes above and beyond helping to support the children's developmental needs. They offer lots of extracurricular activities included in the price and plan their weeks so that learning is focused, varied, and engaging. My youngest has a condition and they went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with her care plan and even took on extra staff training to make sure she had the safest and most supportive care possible. She's already developing so much since attending! I highly recommend the nursery and will be sad once we leave.

I'm so glad with this amazing place. Staff are wonderful, professional and very friendly. Nursery manager informs us of any news. My son started the nursery at one year old and he is now in preschool. He loves to come to the nursery each day and is learning new things. Two weeks ago he came home with a new song in Spanish that he learned in the nursery and we sang together on our way to the nursery. Nursery has plenty of extracurricular activities each day such as music, forest school, play ball, drama and yoga. Last week they had a trip to a botanical garden where they invited parents and it was a great experience to see them in action. Abacus Ark was the best option.

Abacus Ark: the best choice for our family. We couldn't be happier with our experience at Abacus Ark. Both of our children have thrived there since they were 1 year old. What sets Abacus Ark apart: -Amazing teachers: the staff are exceptional. They're not only dedicated and caring, but they're also incredibly creative and fun. Our children absolutely love them! -Fantastic extracurricular activities: the variety of extracurricular activities is impressive. Our kids are exposed to everything from music and art to sports, languages and forest school. -Multilingual environment: we love that they foster a multilingual environment. It's been so beneficial for our children's language development. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the communication with parents is excellent. We always feel well-informed about our children's progress and daily activities. If you're looking for a nurturing, engaging, and enriching nursery, I wholeheartedly recommend Abacus Ark.

We couldn't be happier with Abacus Ark. Our daughter started at 12 months and is now thriving at 20 months. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive to her health needs, and always goes the extra mile. Communication is excellent with almost instant updates of everything they do, what she is eating, sleeping etc. She loves the activities, the multilingual environment, and we love the peace of mind knowing she's in such good hands.

My daughter is 6 weeks into joining Abacus Ark in Wandsworth and the overall experience has totally exceeded our expectations. She has always been so happy and excited to go (even from week 1!) and even on her days off I can tell she is disappointed when she is getting in the pram and she isn't being taken to nursery! The educators have been so nurturing and accommodating with settling her in - they have gone above and beyond to help her get used to sleeping there which means she is happy and well-rested when we pick her up in the evening which makes returning to work after maternity leave that little bit easier! Communication is phenomenal and nothing is ever too much trouble - they really do care deeply about the children they look after. So pleased with our decision to send her to Abacus Ark, I can't wait to keep watching her thrive and develop over the next few months.

Couldn't be happier with Abacus Ark. My 2-year-old daughter loves the staff and the range of activities they do with the kids is amazing. We get regular updates and photos which is so reassuring that they are having fun. Their communication with parents is fantastic. The soft play is great and they take them for walks by the river and to nearby playgrounds so I definitely feel she gets enough exercise too. All of this great peace of mind as a full-time working mum! In terms of value for money, nothing is cheap here but I still think they have competitive rates compared to other nurseries in the area.

I cannot recommend Abacus Ark highly enough! The staff here are simply wonderful, truly caring and dedicated teachers who go above and beyond. It is a pleasure to see my child running to them every morning. One of the standout features is the incredible range of extracurricular activities they offer (music, drama, playball...). The soft play area is another fantastic aspect of the nursery and the fact that parents can use it after hours is a huge bonus. They also organize weekend events for parents, which are an amazing opportunity to meet and connect with other families. Thank you, Abacus Ark team, for everything you do!

Cannot rate Abacus Ark Nursery highly enough! My daughter has attended Abacus since she was 14 months old and absolutely loves it. The teachers are incredible and have real passion for their jobs. The curriculum is outstanding and is over and above any other nursery in the area.

My 4-year-old son has been going to Abacus Ark since he was 9 months old and it’s been fantastic to see him grow, develop and flourish throughout those years. It is like a family nursery - where everyone knows each other - with a strong international dimension. The staff are absolutely outstanding, friendly, highly competent and going above and beyond to help and care for our children. They - as well as the management - however do not take anything for granted and are always seeking to improve, introduce new activities, outdoor trips and take parents’ feedback onboard. Yoga, drama, forest school, music, play ball, walks to the park... a lot of activities to ensure children are always entertained and having fun. I can’t recommend Abacus Ark enough.
24 May 2024
My toddler loves Abacus Ark and she is so happy every day! She’s also developed so much ever since she started. Staff are very approachable and tailor their care to each child’s needs. I’ve also had my older child there until she went to school and the preschool room does a great job preparing the children for school. They take great care with the children’s nutrition and food as well as providing many activities for a well-rounded education. The soft play space is great and the kids love it! There’s no outside space, however the children go on walks as much as the weather allows (and to soft play too!).
24 May 2024
Loving it since day one! Great team, good support, our kids loved it since day one, they have all the extra activities included like yoga, playball, drama, forest school which makes it stand out from other nurseries. A great soft play area, spend a lot of time in the park. Very happy parents and kids.
