The level of care at Buckingham First is extraordinary, the entire team of teachers genuinely have a love for the children and the importance of there work, and it has been great building a relationship/partnership with all of them. The facilities include cubicles for toilet training and outdoor space for fresh air and sunshine when we have it. Communication is fantastic with updates on there daily activities and toilet training reports, outstanding all round care and I'm very thankful and I would highly recommend.

Buckingham first has been an excellent nursery for my little one over the past two years. The staff are excellent and have confidently provided a space for my kid to thrive! Everyday she looks forward to going to nursery.

My daughter came here when she was two transferred from another nursery. Buckingham first was such a good nursery with all teachers being caring and attentive. She settled in very quickly and every morning seeing her running into the nursery sometimes even forgot to say bye to me feel that we have chose the right place! She loved the nursery and they always have so many activities to do. The most important part is the teachers! They are the stars! Thay made my daughter felt like home. We are very sad that she is leaving Buckingham first to go to school. But this will always be a warm place in her heart and a part of her childhood. I'm so thankful for the staff and would recommend anyone in Edgware to consider sending their kids to Buckingham first nursery! Great place for the toddlers!

This is an outstanding nursery with lovely staff. My son was very happy throughout his time here. I am extremely grateful to the team. The area was clean and the play area outside was fun for my son. He was very stimulated at nursery and the staff were trustworthy. My son confidence grew at nursery and this was lovely to see. There are long term staff members which reflects on the great running of the nursery. I highly recommend the nursery.

We are delighted with our experience at Buckingham First Nursery for our daughter. The nurturing environment and dedicated staff have profoundly transformed her development. Their engaging activities and personalized attention have helped her evolve from a shy child into a confident young girl, giving us peace of mind while we are at work. The teachers are exceptional, showing genuine care and a passion for nurturing children, evident in every interaction. They regularly share updates of her daily experiences and delightful conversations, and we enjoy reading the learning journal they maintain, complete with pictures. Her seamless transition to school is a testament to the excellent preparation and solid foundation provided by Buckingham First. We are deeply grateful for the positive impact on our daughter and treasure the wonderful memories she has gained. A heartfelt thank you to the Buckingham First team!

Our daughter had an amazing experience at Buckingham First over the last three years. The staff at the nursery are incredibly attentive and in tune with the children. They pay attention to their learning and emotional needs and provide a safe environment for children to learn, grow and flourish. Our experience as parents has also been very positive. The owner and the staff have always communicated well and attended to the needs of our daughter. The nursery lives up to its 'Outstanding' Ofsted rating and I would highly recommend it to parents who want a safe and supportive environment for their child.

Our boys have absolutely loved their time at Buckingham First nursery and we will miss the team so much. I know that the boys are in such good hands there and they have learnt and developed so much during their time there. The staff are kind and caring. They always keep us updated with what the boys have been up to in person or via the app. I would definitely recommend Buckingham first nursery to anyone!

I am the mum of a little boy, who joined the Nursery when he was 2. He hadn't been in a daycare before, he wasn't t eating very well and was definitely very attached to me. He did cry, he did refused to eat at the beginning but the team was to loving and caring, and patient and they all gave him time to adjust. Now, after one year attending Buckingham First Nursery he is a confident 3 yr old boy. I loved the app they used( I could see what and if he was eating), I could see all the activities they were doing, I loved they baked cakes all the time giving the kids a good sense of responsibility and pride eating their own products). Definitely will be recommending this nursery to all parents I know. Thank you all

I cannot recommend Buckingham First Nursery enough! We were looking for an outstanding nursery in the area for my daughter to join and we looked at quite a few but none stood out to us like this nursery did at the time and I am so glad we send our daughter here. She has created amazing bonds with both children and staff at the school and has exceeded on her development since attending this nursery. The staffs' attention to detail and the way they engage with my daughter to teach her new things is brilliant but they also ensure all children still get to enjoy being kids at the same time as growing and learning which was important to us as parents. The time they spend planning special events for Christmas, Mother's Day, Father's Day etc is very special and we love attending the nursery to enjoy these moments with our daughter. We can't wait for our second daughter to attend the nursery next year!

I cannot speak highly enough of Buckingham First Nursery. My daughter absolutely loved going to this nursery, and it was clear to see why. The staff are exceptional - they are not only caring and attentive but also highly professional. One of the standout features for us was the use of the Famly app. It kept us informed about our daughter's daily activities and progress, which was incredibly reassuring. We could easily see how she was developing and what she was learning each day. The nursery also excels in organising events, such as their wonderful Christmas celebrations. These events are always well-planned and create a joyful and engaging environment for the children. Overall, Buckingham First Nursery provided a nurturing and stimulating environment for our daughter, and we are grateful for the positive impact it has had on her early development.

Buckingham First Nursery came recommended to me by a family member, and I can see why! My experience with every staff member I have dealt with has been positive and more importantly my child's experience has been extremely positive too. My favourite things about the nursery service are the updates on the app on my child's development and how her day is going, I also really appreciate the extra curricular activities the teachers plan like going to the local library. Their Ofsted recognition speaks for itself!

Great nursery and amazing staff. My little one has been going here for three years and she absolutely loves it! Thanks to the brilliant staff and their great facility, she always has the best time. She has also been learning so much and l appreciate the time and hard work the teachers put into helping her learn and grow. I also love the little updates we get throughout the app and the annual reviews are always so insightful and useful for parents. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

I can't rate Buckingham First Nursery highly enough. When we started our search for a nursery, this was the first one we saw and knew straight away that it'll be the one. Our daughter started just before her first birthday and the staff looked after her like she was the most precious thing (which she is) from the first moment. Since then, she bonded with all the team members and being here definitely boosted her development. We especially like the end-of-the-day reports and the fact that we get reviews and feedback about our daughter's progress, skills and behaviour. But most importantly, we love to hear how much fun she has every single day and how loved she is - it truly feels like a home from home. Buckingham First is a brilliantly managed nursery with first-class staff and facilities.

The staff are caring and cater for my daughter's additional needs. They are a supportive team and everyone is approachable. They communicate well and are always happy to accommodate where they can. My daughter settled in so easily in the setting and she always looks forward to coming in and that also reassures me that she is safe too. The meals smell amazing when I go to collect her early too.

Such a warm, caring and calm nursery. Everyone is so kind and really pays attention to the details to share a little about how their day has been when you pick them up. My son was very well looked after. They do lots of fun learning experiences, like teaching the children to brush their teeth as well as the usual painting, sensory and water play. They even throw a special Christmas party for the little ones. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to look after him.

Warm, friendiy atmosphere, quality, personalised service. The nursery staff work together with me on development milestones for my child. I'm comfortable leaving my child in a safe place and in capable hands which this nursery offers.

A home away from home. When I first saw this nursery many years ago (not long after it first opened), I knew this was the one for my child. The baby room is beautifully set up and clear progression to the next room and finally the preschool room. There is a family ethos which comes across from management and all the practitioners and support staff. There is good communication and the updates at handover and more recently online via an app were excellent at updating us on how our children’s day was. We loved it so much we sent all 3 of our children to this nursery and were extremely sad to leave once my last child started school because of the family feel, care and affection shown towards my children. I never had to worry about them as I always knew they were in good hands. My children are still good friends with some of their friends from nursery and still talk about their nursery days. You won’t find a better place!

I had the absolute pleasure of sending both my son and daughter to Buckingham First. They attended the nursery from 11/12 months old until they began school. The nursery is warm and welcoming. The staff are friendly and engaging. It felt like a home away from home for both my children. They loved attending Buckingham First and for my husband and myself, we felt safe in the knowledge that they were in a nurturing environment when they were not with us. The nursery was central in helping our son try new foods and helping us toilet-train our daughter. The preschool really focuses on getting the children ready for school and both of mine have thrived as a result. I would highly recommend Buckingham first, the fact that we commuted from Watford at the beginning proves how good this nursery is and the wonderful team that works there.

This is a great nursery. My daughter was looked after from the age of 13 months until she turned 5. The staff are amazing, so caring and nurturing. The nursery focuses on play and learning which is great for my daughter's development. She loved the staff and was very sad to leave. Could not fault the nursery. Highly recommend!

I don’t where to begin with this lovely nursery. My daughter absolutely loved going to this nursery from day one. The teachers and other staff members are all so friendly and very professional in their approach. I never had a day that my daughter came home unhappy. The growth and independence that I have seen in my daughter from the day she started the nursery till her last day is tremendous. It was like a second home to her. Sad to leave this nursery but happy to see the growth that the nursery has brought in her critical years of development. I can’t recommend this nursery enough.
