I would like to express my immense gratitude to Mini Miracles for all the love and dedication shown to my daughter since she joined the nursery at just 1 year old. Now, at almost 3 years old, I can see how much she has grown, developed, and become a happy and confident child, and I know that a big part of this is thanks to the welcoming environment and the exceptional work of the team. The staff are incredibly attentive, caring, and professional, always ensuring that each child receives the care and attention they need. Their patience and kindness make all the difference, creating a safe and stimulating environment for the children’s development. I couldn’t be happier with the choice we made for our daughter's early education. Thank you, Mini Miracles, for all the love, dedication, and effort! You truly live up to the name, creating little miracles every day!

I would like to share my experience with my daughter’s nursery. When we visited MMM, we saw that the children were happy and comfortable in the environment, and that made us feel very reassured knowing they were being well cared for and settled in. We had no doubts when making this choice. Our daughter has always been very well looked after, supported, and respected. Ms. Sim and Mr. Krish are always willing to help and resolve any issues, and the staff is always ready to listen and answer any questions. The activities are always so much fun, and our daughter comes back excited every day to tell us what she did. I feel very at ease knowing that my daughter is in a place that values quality education and the well-being of the children. It is definitely a choice I made with great pride and confidence!

My husband and I chose Mini Miracles following a nursery viewing because we were impressed with the ethos, care and support that the nursery staff were giving to the children in their care. Our daughter has been going to the nursery for 8 months now, and we're very happy with the care that the team have given her. She loves going, has made many friends and close relationships with her teachers. Krish, Sim and the baby team have been fantastic - answering any questions that we've had as first time parents, and making suggestions of how we can support our daughter's development at home. Overall, we're very happy that we chose Mini Miracles!

Our little boy has been at Mini Miracles for almost 3 years now. We joined when a lot of COVID restrictions were still in place, and had to make a decision based on a virtual tour, but we loved Krish instantly and we've never regretted our decision. Our boy has been really happy and he's progressed in ways we'd never have managed to encourage. He's always had a really lovely little friendship group so he's always excited to go in and play with his friends. There's been a fair bit of staff turnover in the time he's attended, but he's always quickly adjusted to new key workers, and the whole Montessori setup means the children know all the staff and all the other kids, not limited by age or "room" group, so change and transitions have been seamless. We had a few "special" circumstances, and Mini Miracles adapted to our needs admirably. And whenever there's been any issue or problem with our boy, they've been quick to talk to us. I feel he's well looked after and gaining valuable social skills and we'll be sad to leave when he moves on to big school.

Our son has been going to Mini Miracles Montessori (MMM) since his first birthday, and he is now 4. He has made great friends, and always looks forward to each day. The staff at MMM is warm and compassionate, and has always shown interest and great attachment to our son. It is clear for us that MMM really care about the kids that they are caring for; they spend time every day explaining what has happened during the day so we can collaborate together on developing our son's confidence, curiosity and social skills. Moreover, our son needs some special care as his speech has not developed as well as his peers, and MMM has spearheaded an improvement plan to help our son make progress. I recommend this wonderful place to any parent looking for a nursery where their child will not only be the centre of their attention and experience lot of fun (MMM also has a Forest School track), but will thrive, and experience the fun things of life. Both Mr Krish and Ms Sim are excellent managers, and make us feel like their nursery is a second family for our son.
