Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities extremely well. They work with external professionals and parents to plan targets and use children's learning styles and interests to help them achieve these targets. Knowledge gained from sensory training is used very effectively to support all children.

Outdoor space

Children benefit from a strong focus on nature when they attend weekly forest-school sessions. Pre-school children also climb, run and jump in the garden area.

We have been so pleased with Learning Pandas, both our children have been going since they were 11 months old and been so happy there. The staff are great, so welcoming and friendly, and excellent communication. Leaving your baby is such a daunting experience but I know they are in such kind and caring hands when I drop them off. They have also done a great job in preparing our eldest for school and helping him grow in confidence during his time in the preschool.

We've been at Learning Pandas for 4 years and would highly recommend the nursery. The team of staff create a kind, stimulating and fun environment which has been brilliant for both of our children. Their support and advice through different phases and key moments has been invaluable, they really know us as a family which makes a difference. The extended hours as standard was a real differentiator as parents working full time. The proximity to the Gunnersbury triangle nature reserve and Chiswick Business park is brilliant for forest school activities and trips out which they absolutely love. Communication through the app and the daily photos and updates on the activities are great and they also host lovely events, involving parents at different points throughout the year.

We absolutely love this little nursery, and my son really enjoys spending time there. The staff are very kind, sweet, efficient, and communicative, which really helps parents get back to work without constantly worrying about how little ones are doing in the nursery as. They are the people who really appreciate what they do and love what they do, genuinely looking after every single child so well. They always organise different activities across festivals for kids and the family, and always make great effort to make the rooms nice, cosy, and safe for kids to play. My son is thriving there!

Learning Pandas Day Nursery has been an incredible place for our son, who started there at just 10 months old. From day one, the staff have been warm, nurturing, and truly dedicated to our son's development. It has given us so much peace knowing our little one was not just cared for, but genuinely loved. Over the months, we’ve watched our son grow in confidence, curiosity, and kindness and we credit so much of that to the amazing environment at Learning Pandas. The activities are creative, the communication is fantastic, and we enjoy receiving daily photo updates of what our son is getting up to at nursery. The staff go above and beyond every single day. It’s been the perfect start to our child’s early years, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly.
