Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection
Parents speak very highly of the setting.
They value the communication they receive from staff and feel involved in their children's learning.
Inclusion & environment
All children, including those who have English as an additional language or may have special educational needs and/or disabilities, make good progress in their learning. All staff use effective assessment to monitor children's progress. Staff are well equipped to plan extensions for children's learning and development.
The manager and staff know that many children may not have access to an outdoor space at home. As such, they ensure all children make use of the garden area daily and visit areas in the local community on a regular basis.
Our Daughter absolutely loved attending Flourish Day Nursery. It has such a warm family feel and the care and love given to the children is fantastic. It's great that they have some outdoor space in London however they also regularly take the children to the library which instills a love of books as well as regular trips to local parks to explore. They even explore further afield with a trip into central London to the Science museum which I never imagined possible at a nursery but was done with military precision (I attended for extra support). Our daughter has now started school and still regularly talks of nursery and her pre-school teacher in particular The nursery is also fantastic as sending multiple updates and photos daily giving you confidence your child is happy. This is something I really miss now our daughter is at school
Read on GoogleWe were so lucky to find Flourish and have space for our daughter there. Honestly, she was always so happy to go and be there. Big peace of mind for me and my partner as parents as we knew she was very well looked after! Everyday is full of activities and they take their time in making sure is educational and fun. I would recommend to anyone around the area, they really care about all the kids and create such a fantastic family like atmosphere. Thank you for this fantastic 2 years, Isabel’s learnt so much with you and we will all miss you!
Read on GoogleOur little boy spent his early years at this nursery, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. The entire team provided exceptional care, creating a nurturing and supportive environment for him to grow and thrive. We truly appreciate their dedication and kindness. Highly recommended
Read on GoogleOur daughter had a wonderful time at Flourish. Having been to a couple of different nurseries since, I can honestly say that Flourish stands out as the best for two reasons: 1) because of the individual attention they give each child and 2) the "extra curricular" activities they plan and provide for the children - e.g. trips near and far (our daughter went to the park, library and even into central London with Flourish). Updates are regularly given on the app and feedback to the managers is well received. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.
Read on GoogleMy daughter quite literally flourished under the care and attention of the team at Flourish Day Nursery. She joined at 15m during the pandemic and left the week before starting primary school.. We went through all of the “rooms” in the nursery, baby, toddler and pre-school. Each was the best, and each caregiver and teacher well trained, well respected by the owners, and loved by the children in their care. We still talk regularly about the teachers and friends made at Flourish and the environment was so positive and nurturing. The set up is great, the outside space very well utilised, they had regular trips to the local park etc, and kid friendly home cooked meals and healthy snacks. My daughter is now in reception, and we still talk about what she learned there and the friends she made, and although the nursery friends go to different primary schools, we are fortunate to see them often due to the strong bonds formed during their early years at Flourish. I’m a bit late in this review, but I was just recommending the nursery to another mum and saw some unfair comments related to admin/communication. The owners/managers of the nursery are very focused on what’s happening day to day, and the families that attend, rather than the sales pipeline. To leave a poor review because a phone call was not returned is pathetic, and it does not reflect the care that the staff at the nursery give day in day out. I was always pleased that the staff care more about the kids in their care than answering emails. The only frustration was with the application process, which seemed the same across all the nurseries we spoke to and included a very popular nursery that took a deposit without ever securing a place: applying for nursery and school places is a learning experience! I would recommend Flourish to any parent who wants a loving, safe and nurturing environment combined with some great age appropriate education and child development delivered by awesome staff.
