Lucy P (Mother of Child)

Our daughter is settling in really well and enjoys coming to nursery. The staff are so friendly, supportive, and reassuring, which has made the whole transition feel easy for us.

Clarissa M (Mother of Child)

My daughter has been here nearly a year and is unbelievably happy—she practically skips into mini pre-school. She’s loved both rooms she’s been in, and the staff are brilliant, cheerful, and supportive, including with potty training.

D B (Father of Child)

Since our son started Monkey Puzzle Bexleyheath, his confidence and development have come on massively. The team are always welcoming at drop-off and give a really thorough handover at pick-up, and he genuinely looks forward to going in.

T M (Mother of Child)

We’re very happy with the nursery. Our son is developing well, enjoys the activities, and is starting to make his first friends. We’re really grateful to the staff and managers for all their support.

Amy C (Mother of Child)

My son has been attending for two years and absolutely loves it. We can’t thank the team enough—staff and management are always welcoming, and it’s an amazing nursery that we’d happily recommend.

D S (Mother of Child)

Our daughter has loved this nursery since joining in 2023 and has never had a bad day. The staff are incredible and the nursery is excellent—moving away is heartbreaking because of the bonds she’s built here.

I C (Grandfather of Child)

I was invited for Special Person’s Day and it was such a lovely event. The staff were so welcoming and friendly, and it was wonderful being able to play with my grandson, meet other families, and feel included in nursery life.

H D (Aunt of Child)

My nephew really enjoys nursery and always chats excitedly about his day. The team are welcoming to family members and it’s so sweet that they save his artwork—he comes home with lots of creations and is clearly very well cared for.

We inspire children with a variety of colour, texture, and taste to expand their food experiences, build positive routines, and encourage confident, curious eating. We also champion seasonal and local produce, helping children learn where food comes from while developing an early understanding of nutrition in a simple, engaging way.
