About this day nursery

YMCA Jumpers! Nursery, located in South Ealing, is dedicated to fostering a supportive and informative environment for both children and their families.

The nursery focuses on guiding children through their developmental stages, from the initial settling-in period to daily routines, while also ensuring clear communication regarding fees and other important information. A key aspect of their approach is the "Key Person" system, where each child is assigned a dedicated staff member to build a strong bond, understand individual needs, and maintain regular updates with parents.

This personalized care helps children develop trust and confidence. The nursery follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, emphasizing learning through play, exploration, and creativity, utilizing both indoor and an extensive outdoor garden space.

The curriculum covers essential areas such as communication, physical development, personal and emotional growth, expressive arts, understanding the world, literacy, mathematics, and problem-solving skills. Healthy eating is prioritized, with nutritious snacks and balanced meals prepared with children's dietary needs, allergies, and cultural requirements in mind.

Menus are shared with parents to encourage healthy food habits. The nursery values open communication with parents, offering daily handovers, online updates, regular parent meetings, and newsletters.

Safeguarding and child protection are paramount, with all staff trained in these areas, as well as first aid and health and safety. The nursery strives to create a secure and welcoming space where children can thrive, viewing parents as essential partners in their child's development.

My son has attended Jumpers since he was 20 months. He started in the baby room, then middle room and now's in the eldest tier. He absolutely loves it! He has friends, is learning numbers, fine motor and language skills everyday, and makes lots of beautiful, creative things. Jumpers' fantastic outdoor facilities have everything a child would want/need to play and learn. The teachers are excellent: caring, sweet and energetic with the children, while also teaching important boundaries and respect for one another. They handle everything with high levels of professionalism and compassion, expertly helping us to navigate a family bereavement and well as the birth of my son's siblings. Everyone is welcome with key cultural and religious dates recognised. My son always eats all the food (vegetarian option) and they focus on fresh fruit like watermelon etc for snacks. Being set back from the road feels secure, safe and quiet. For a 5* early years experience pick Jumpers.

Our little boy Winston is 3 and has been going to Jumpers since he was 8 months old. Lorna is absolutely fantastic. She has really dedicated time to help him with his speech, and since she has been working with him he has progressed brilliantly. He clearly feels at ease and takes comfort from her. Thanks to Lorna and the team, it means a lot. Highly recommend.

Sent an email 3 times to this organisation regarding a complaint about the baby classes I had booked. To date I have not received a response. I will now have to waste my time writing to the head office. Very poor Indeed.
