Inclusion & environment
Staff have high expectations for every child, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. They have an excellent knowledge and understanding of the individual learning journey of their key children and carefully consider how to use children's interests to help them to achieve their next steps, leading to very good progress.
Staff support children to explore the outdoors and build resilience in all weather conditions as they joyfully jump in puddles during their forest school session.
I can't speak highly enough about Keren's. What a wonderful nursery with incredible staff that care so deeply for the children they look after. It feels like a home away from home and our son is so excited to go there every day. The range of activities that the kids do from a very young age is impressive and any time the weather is good, they spend time outdoors in St James' garden across the road. We're so grateful to have found such an amazing nursery!.
Read on GoogleOur experience with Keren's Nursery in Holland Park, near Notting Hill, has been nothing short of exceptional. After finding ourselves in a challenging situation back in our home country, we were in urgent need of a safe and nurturing environment for our two young children, aged 1 and 4. The team at Keren's Nursery welcomed them into their care with open arms, and we couldn't be more grateful. Both of our children were placed in separate groups, the yellow and blue groups respectively, and from the moment they stepped through the doors, they were treated with kindness, patience, and genuine care. It was a relief for us as parents to see how quickly they settled in and began to thrive in their new surroundings. The staff at Keren's Nursery are truly exceptional. From the educators who provided engaging and age-appropriate activities to the management team who ensured the smooth running of the nursery, every member of staff went above and beyond to make sure our children felt happy, safe, and loved. Their dedication to the well-being of the children is evident in everything they do, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to entrust our little ones with. During their almost two-month stay at the nursery, we saw our children grow and develop in ways we never could have imagined. Not only did they learn new skills and make new friends, but they also developed a sense of confidence and independence that will stay with them for years to come. We are so grateful to the staff and management at Keren's Nursery for providing such a supportive and nurturing environment for our children during a challenging time in our lives. We cannot recommend Keren's Nursery highly enough to any parents looking for a nursery in Notting Hill or Holland Park. They truly go above and beyond to provide exceptional care and support to every child in their care, and we are forever grateful for the positive impact they've had on our family. Thank you, Keren's Nursery, for everything you do!
Read on GoogleKeren's nursery is a wonderful, warm and loving nursery which my child loves to go to every morning. Every day the kids are exposed to enriching activities such as sport, forest school, baking, music, science experiments etc.. My older one grew up there, and I had no doubt that my younger one will attend there too. The staff members love the kids so much, and there no such pleasure as watching your kid running every morning to their arms and get welcomed with hugs and kisses.. There is a great flexibility with the daily time windows and the price change accordingly, as other nurseries in the area gives the option for morning and/or afternoon sessions. I highly recommend this nursery! There is no doubt it is the best in the area!!
Read on GoogleOur son has attended two years at Keren’s nursery in Holland Park. It has become a second home to him and we feel this was down to the kindness, care and patience of everyone from the teachers to the security guards and the management team. Most importantly, we felt that our child’s care and development was a priority for his teachers as he was properly looked after, loved and exposed to new experiences. We feel fortunate that our daughter will continue growing and developing at Keren’s nursery.
Read on GoogleSuch a phenomenal nursery, the atmosphere inside is just great, the communication from the teachers is also brilliant, they treat our little boy like an individual and provide deeply caring bespoke childcare. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
