This is such a great nursery. I can only speak so highly of the care that is provided by the team. They spend time to know the kids, understand their needs our son has learned so much over the last 11 months.

Its been a year my son goes to the nursery, the staff are very kind in their approach,their teaching and over care they take is really appreciated and commendable. Every update of the Child is given. I have not seen all this in regards to my elder one who went to a different nursery. I highly recommend Monkey Puzzle they are amazing

Very friendly staff who engage and encourage my child with activities and outside time each day. They genuinely care about the children, which can easily be seen in the relationships they build with each individual child. Academic and social development is always a focus, as well as weekly music sessions. As a first-time Mum, they were incredibly supportive and we couldn't have picked a better place to put our son.

Staff are amazing, they really ensure every child is cared for and has their individual time and attention when needed. My child struggled during the settling in and first few weeks at nursery and staff were so attentive, and also amazing at updating me throughout the day. Staff are receptive to routines and very responsive to messaging. My son now absolutely loves going to nursery, blows the Staff kisses when he leaves and is really happy when he gets home. The activities are great but I wish they would go outside more!

My daughter has been attending monkey puzzle since she was 10 months old, since enrolling in nursery I have noticed amazing progression in her development and social skills. The staff keep me well informed and make sure I can see all aspects of her day, including all the activities and she looks like she has so much fun. The staff are professional and so so lovely

My daughter has loved being part of this nursery and its community and whilst she is excited to be starting reception tomorrow I know she will miss all the staff and community here - as will we (the parents). This nursery has always been supportive towards our needs and we cannot thank the manager and all the staff enough - thank you all so much. We have seen our daughter grow and develop so much in the community of this nursery and highly recommend it to anyone.

Monkey Puzzle provides a safe and welcoming environment for young children. The staff really care about the children they are looking after. Meals are nutritious and the activities are so stimulating. The hours are great for those that work 730-630. I would highly recommend it.

Both of our children have been attending Monkey Puzzle since they were 11 months old and we couldn't be happier with the experience. It's been amazing to watch them grow and thrive in such a supportive and nurturing environment. They are currently 1.5years and 3.5years. They've both made wonderful progress, developing confidence, communication skills, and a real sense of independence. The staff have played a huge part in that - they've taken the time to really understand both of the kids, to support their learning and development. Our kids especially enjoy the creative activities and messy play. We're incredibly grateful to everyone at Monkey Puzzle

My son has been going to Monkey Puzzle in Borehamwood since he was 1, and is now 2.5 yrs old. The staff are always very welcoming and supportive of the children and the manager is usually at the door in the morning to greet the children coming in and there to answer any questions. My son seems really happy going there and his development has been lovely to see. The staff always offer a range of different activities to keep the children engaged and learning. Thank you for all your support Monkey Puzzle.

I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff at Monkey Puzzle. My son has been here for 6 months and settled in so well, having been difficult at a different nursery. I feel he is looked after, and also learning is tailored to his individual needs. The staff go out of their way for him, I truly feel he is loved!
17 March 2025
Amazing nusery with outstanding staff who look after my child like his their own. I can't not fault Monkey puzzle in anyway from the moment I went to view it I got an instant feeling that my child was welcomed and was going to flourish here. The manager is so hands on and supportive to the children we just love her. I'm so pleased to send my child here as I feel comfortable and confident leaving him there as his in safe hands and know his learning and being well looked after.

Such a wonderful warm nursery. They do lots of special things depending on what's going on in the calendar. The manager always there with a smile to greet us in the morning. My daughter always comes out happy.

Very happy with the support and care we receive from monkey puzzle. Our son is currently in preschool here and started from the Tweenies age group, following in from our daughter who graduated in the summer of 2023. We've been very pleased with the variety of activities, and the options of food for the kids.
12 March 2025
Staff are so kind & show a great deal of care towards the children. Always greeted with a smile at the door and they provide such a happy and safe environment for the kids. Teaching life skills and preparing them for the next step in education. I would 100% recommend Monkey Puzzle as a day nursery from baby to pre-school, they're great!

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Monkey Puzzle. The teachers are exceptionally caring and create a nurturing environment where my child has thrived. The facility is clean, safe, and filled with engaging activities that promote learning and development. Highly recommend!

We've have sent two of our kids here and have had fantastic experiences over the last 5 years. Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Borehamwood is a fantastic environment for babies, toddlers, and pre-schoolers, and the staff here cater to the needs of the individual children to help them develop and grow. They have great facilities and bring in outside specialist teachers for sports, and French. My daughter particularly loves the 'stretch and grow' sessions. Monkey Puzzle is run incredibly well, with fantastic communication from the management, and a warm, loving environment for the children. Thank you Monkey Puzzle team!

I have had two children at Monkey Puzzle, accumulating 5 years of experience with this amazing nursery. My children are very different to one another and both received the best structure, education, care and love they needed. The staff here is extremely dedicated to the well-being and growth of each child and the manager runs the nursery in an exceptional manner. My children love going in, and even on hard days when they don't, the staff ensures they are well received and they come home happy. Having seen other nurseries, I can say with confidence this one cares not only for the children but for the parents and all the family. It runs smoothly, with great communication and top management. I cannot recommend this nursery enough. Thank you Monkey Puzzle!

Have sent both of my two children to Monkey Puzzle over the last 5 years. They have always been warm and nurturing, offering a good mix of fun, sporty, creative activities and in older years also challenging the children to start recognising and writing their letters and numbers, practising phonics and counting, and even learning French! Both kids loved their time at Monkey Puzzle, had lovely relationships with their key workers and we will miss the nursery very much now that my youngest has started primary school.

My oldest has just left Monkey Puzzle after three years there. We have been delighted by the care he received. He was happy to go in each day, and he would come out with a beaming smile. He loved the teachers and enjoyed all the extracurricular activities - the French, football and active classes. We have sent our second to the nursery and she is very happy in the baby room.

We have been extremely happy with Monkey Puzzle Borehamwood, so much so that we are currently sending our second child to the same nursery. The manager is excellent. She knows each and every child and has created an extremely warm, welcoming and caring environment, where parents can feel confident their little ones are cared for and nurtured by lovely staff. As an added bonus, the hours and location of the nursery make it an excellent choice for anyone who needs to commute. I would highly recommend this nursery.
