Our son has been attending Speckles Day Nursery since we moved back to London and i have been very impressed with the level of care and communication. The staff are so nurturing and patient, and the manager runs the nursery with such genuine care. We are incredibly grateful for everything they do. Thank you

I recently enrolled my 3-year-old into Speckles Nursery after giving it a lot of thought. As any parent knows, it can be nerve-wracking to leave your little one somewhere new for the first time. The staff at Speckles have been incredibly warm and welcoming, which immediately put me at ease. The nursery itself is very clean and well-kept. My daughter's room has a lovely layout, and she can't stop talking about the "living corner," where she loves playing in the pretend kitchen. The outdoor space also feels very safe and secure. Another thing I really appreciate is the nursery's app, which they use to communicate with parents. It's so reassuring to receive updates and know how your child is getting on throughout the day, it really puts your mind at ease. Overall, I'm really pleased with our choice and happy that my daughter is settling in so well.

Highly recommend the nursery. My daughter attended the same nursery now my son is. The manager and all other staff lovely ladies and highly professional. They are very flexible as well. Will try to accommodate according to working parents needs.

I would like to highlight all your amazing staffs for all the support my child have received over the past years.I can see how much she have improved and I'm very impress with all that she have learnt, I really appreciate all your effort and support. I'm aware that one staff member is no longer apart of the team but, I cannot complete my review without acknowledging her outstanding support and care that she showed my child. I'm forever grateful and will definitely recommend this nursery.

If you're in the South Croydon area, I can't recommend Speckles Day Nursery enough! My son started at 18 months in the baby room and, at 4 years old, he's now ready for school thanks to the wonderful care and support he's received. Choosing the right nursery was important, and after visiting many, Speckles was the only one that gave us that "this is it" feeling. The nursery is clean, welcoming, and well laid out. The staff are amazing-caring, attentive, and always in tune with the children's needs. Communication with parents is fantastic, and my son has formed strong bonds with both staff and other children, growing in confidence along the way. Speckles has provided such a nurturing environment, and I'm grateful for the positive impact it's had on my son's early development. Highly recommend!

We are incredibly happy with the care and attention our child receives at Speckles Day Nursery. The facility is always welcoming, clean, and thoughtfully arranged to support early learning and play. The team does a fantastic job of not just looking after the children but truly engaging them, encouraging curiosity, creativity, and kindness through a well-rounded set of activities. We've seen noticeable growth in our child's communication, confidence, and social skills, and we're so grateful for the nurturing environment you've created.

The location and environment of Speckles day nursery is very clean and safe for kids. The staff are very polite and understanding. Parents are informed about all activities and everything concerning your child's development. My child is always so happy going to school which means she is being treated well. I have never had to complain about anything concerning my child. Kudos to the management and staff.

The staff are fantastic! My child loves going there every day and has learned so much already. The curriculum is well-rounded, incorporating both play-based learning and structured activities. Communication with parents is excellent, and I always feel informed and involved in my child's progress.

I have only wonderful things to say about Speckles. My daughter absolutely loves it here, and I have complete confidence that she is well cared for by the amazing team. Every day, we're welcomed with a smile, and at pick-up, we get a brief update on how her day went. The app keeps us informed with important updates and delightful photos, which I always look forward to receiving. A fantastic place with a fantastic team-highly recommend!

As first-time parents, we were a bit nervous about enrolling our child at a nursery. We visited a few different nurseries in the area, but some of them were a bit run down and smelled a bit off. But when we got to Speckles Day Nursery, we were so glad we chose it! It felt like home, and it was really well-kept. And the best part? It smells amazing! The staff and manager are absolutely wonderful people who have always taken great care of our little one. She loves going to the nursery in the morning and is always smiling when we pick her up. She absolutely adores it! She's also shown some amazing signs of development like her vocabulary has grown a lot, she can now play nicely with other kids, and she's doing really well in all her classes. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent in the area. It's a great place for your child to grow and learn.

From my initial look around Speckles felt like a warm and welcoming environment and my view has not changed one year on. My daughter settled really well and developed a close bond her key worker and other staff members. The staff take on feedback and accommodate to the best of their ability. Overall, a hidden treasure.

Speckles is a lovely nursery. The staff are so friendly and caring. Both our children settled in well to the nursery and come home talking about how much fun they have had with their friends and teachers. We are always kept well informed of any issues or new developments with our children and I know that they are in safe, loving hands.

I still recall my first visit to speckles nursery before I was given an application form. It just felt like home. It was absolutely clean , quiet, well staffed and the environment was absolutely welcoming. This still remains the same. The staff are absolutely friendly, active and engaging. The feedback from the staff of my daughter is helpful and refreshing. My daughter has made lots of progress and she loves attending this nursery as she comes home joyful. Also, the manager is outstanding, a very good (she knows what she is doing and knows her staff ) she is well informed , approachable and well organised. Trust me when say , this is amazing an nursery as I have come cross other nursery with my previous child where the communication and management was terrible. But at speckles their communication skills is very good and as parent I think that is important aspect to consider. I am pleased I found this nursery and I have made a fantastic choice in taking my toddler here. Thanks you.

I had checked other nurseries around but Speckles made me feel welcome and my baby settled in immediately. In less than 4 months, my baby's growth and development have been remarkable! Also, I appreciate that they take on feedback and always improve their offerings.

By far the best nursery my son has attended! Unfortunately, I've had to move him a few times due to poor care at previous nurseries. However, Speckles definitely tops them all! The level of care, and attention to detail in the children's learning, and handovers is excellent. My child's speech and overall confidence has come along leaps and bounds. Speckles has extracted his creative abilities, and I also love how they support with toilet training and manage behaviour. Positive behaviour is promoted obviously, however, how it's implemented is evident throughout the day and in feedback in handovers. My son was having tantrums after a long day at nursery (as he adjusts to a full-time week) and I was struggling to manage this. The manager asked me how he was doing, and when I told her at drop off, I noticed that he had been much calmer since then. The manager let me know that she spoke with him! Amazing! The staff are so friendly and approachable. My son's key worker is top tier!

I'm so pleased we came across Speckles Day Nursery I had a choice of two Nurseries but the warm welcome we got on the show around Speckles Day Nursery really made it feel like home which is what I wanted for my daughter. The staff was well presented and it was very clean and organised. My daughter had absolutely no trouble settling in and is very happy to inform me of her daily activities. I love that Speckles is excellent with communication because I'm so relaxed when I'm updated throughout the day. I look forward to my daughter's development at Speckles Day Nursery and would like to say thank you to the staff and Management team.

It has been a truly rewarding experience for my daughter. She began at the age of one, and over time, has developed significant social skills and enhanced her confidence in communication. The teachers and staff have consistently demonstrated exceptional support, care, and dedication, exceeding all expectations. I am deeply appreciative of their commitment and could not ask for a better environment for my daughter's growth. Your team is truly outstanding.

This nursery is truly outstanding, and they go over and above for your child. I removed my child from a big brand nursery due to rising fees and an unwelcoming manager. Naturally, I was quite nervous about moving my daughter, however, they managed the transition perfectly. They are kind and so flexible with everything. They keep me updated daily on their app and will often send me private messages to keep me updated. They have made us feel so welcome as a family, and my daughter just loves it there. Even when she was struggling with sleep, they persevered with it and got her back into a routine. I was truly so lucky to have been recommended Speckles by another parent, and I highly recommend them myself.

My son joined this nursery at a year old he is now two. He is so happy here. I drop him off with no tears, nothing; he says bye muma, and off he goes. So proud of the little man - he's becoming so social and so friendly. The girls are so caring for him. Honestly, I love this nursery.
