Our Daughter had just Started in the 2-3 year Toddler room at Millie House, Fulham Reach nursery on Monday. So amazed how well she has settled. The toddler room and outside play areas are clean and great for the children to play and learn safely. Caroline the manager was absolutely brilliant, welcoming and very professional. All other staff are brilliant, very supportive and understanding. It was the best decision we have made moving our daughter to this Nursery. So lovely picking her up with a big smile on her face. I Would definitely highly recommend any child attending here.

We’ve had a really positive experience at Millie’s House, particularly in how they’ve supported our two-year-old son who has additional SEND needs. The care, patience, and understanding shown by the staff have genuinely meant a lot to us as parents. Management have been excellent. Caroline and Deputy Manager Suna have gone above and beyond to make sure our son is properly supported and accommodated in a way that works for him. Communication has been clear, thoughtful, and reassuring throughout, which has made a real difference for our family. The staff are caring, attentive, and clearly committed to doing what’s best for the children. It truly feels like a setting that works with parents rather than around them, with a shared focus on achieving the best outcomes for each child. We’re very grateful for the flexibility, effort, and genuine care shown, and we feel confident that our son is being supported in the right environment.

We couldn’t be happier with Millie’s House Nursery! Our daughter (1 year old) currently attends and absolutely loves it. Mary-Joyce is her carer and is super attentive to her. The staff are also so caring and create such a warm, welcoming environment. It’s amazing to see how much she is learning and how happy she is each day. Our son (now 3.5 years old) also went to Millie’s House and had a great experience. It really helped build his social skills. Caroline, the nursery Manager is also so helpful and friendly!! We’re so grateful to the entire team for their dedication and the care they show to each child. It’s purpose built and has a lovely outdoor space. Highly recommend Millie’s House to any family looking for a wonderful nursery!

My son has attended Millie’s house for 5 months now and we couldn’t be happier. Caroline and the staff (Mary Joyce in particular) are fantastic. They are so attentive and it’s such a reassurance knowing how good they are and how much he loves it there. We’ve had some medical issues and they have gone over and above to undergo training etc to ensure they can help manage it with us. We couldn’t be happier.

My son has been at Millie’s House, Fulham Reach since September 2024 and he absolutely loves it! Caroline and her lovely team of staff are caring, friendly and approachable. The facilities are great and very clean, the outside area is big and they spend lots of time in the fresh air. The children are given nutritious food which is also cooked on site. Thank you to you all for making our nursery journey such a positive one.
