About this day nursery

Deanery Road Nursery and Preschool in Stratford, E15 4LP, operates year-round from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday. Re-registered in 2021, this childcare setting caters to children aged 0 to 4 years.

The nursery offers an effective learning programme, with staff utilising children's starting points to plan for their next developmental steps. The dedicated Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENDCo) collaborates closely with parents and external agencies to ensure that all children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive appropriate support, positively impacting their education.

Children quickly settle into the friendly environment, forming strong bonds with their key persons and separating from parents with ease, which promotes their emotional well-being. Staff promote a love of nursery rhymes and stories, helping children to understand authors and illustrators, and they celebrate diverse cultures by inviting parents to read books in various home languages.

Outdoor learning is encouraged, with children dressing appropriately to explore outside, even in light rain, to observe their world firsthand. The manager and staff are committed to enhancing children's physical skills with new climbing resources.

The nursery also focuses on developing children's independence, with older children confidently managing their hygiene routines. Parents consistently praise the manager's supportive approach and the team's friendliness.

Deanery Road have always been very friendly and professional, I feel comfortable and confident leaving my child. My baby (7 months when joined) is calm and happy when I collect him. They provide high quality care, keeping you informed and up to date. I would recommend this nursery

Lovely nursery, with lovely staff members who have a naturally caring nature and look after the children very well. Although they require you to pay on time in, I must say I do find that they are not money hungry like the previous nursery I sent my child to who's priority seemed to be the money before the child. At this nursery its the children that are their first priority and the money a close second (and rightly so), I have recommended it to other mums and would recommend to anyone.

Practitioners pay is incredibly low, under £10 per hour for level 3 qualified staff. £2 under the London living rate. So unfair and demeaning.
