Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

Outdoor space

Younger children gather flowers and leaves from the garden to make pretend soup in the mud kitchen. Staff support children to play cooperatively by guiding children as they add their ingredients and stir the mixture. Children delight in developing their coordination as they ride tricycles. They build strength and control as they negotiate climbing equipment and develop hand-eye coordination as they try to scoop up sea animal figures from the water tray with their nets.

This is the best nursery in London! Our child is always excited to go and absolutely loves the warm and friendly teachers. The staff create such a welcoming environment that she is always happy to see them. The activities are engaging and well-planned, helping her learn and grow every day. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed about her progress. We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience.

My children love attending the setting with great pleasure. The teachers always greet them with a smile and happy spirit, finding an individual approach to each one of the children. They are always in touch with parents and happy to discuss any worry. The kindergarten playrooms are cozy, warm and have a homely atmosphere. The teachers are true professionals in their field. Children are treated with love. Every child is seen as an individual, and this is priceless. The curriculum is run at the highest level with holistic approach. In the mornings children are taught literacy, speech development, reading, mathematics, the world around them as well as music, dance, and emotional and physical development. The afternoon sessions include the “laboratory of scientific wonders” as well cooking classes. The children are delighted! My children’s horizons expanded significantly. Their speech became richer and they developed a desire to learn more. They became much more confident and inquisitive, made lots of friends whom they shared plenty happy moments together!

Fantastic nursery with warm-hearted, loving and highly qualified staff. Our son is attending Vishenka full-time and is enjoying every single day there. Despite we are not coming from a Russian speaking community, our son has been here very welcome and extremely happy. As he is also making a great progress in practically all areas, as parents, we cannot wish for more!

My son attended the summer camp for 2 weeks and now he is confident in talking Russian while before he struggled. He really enjoyed the activities. He learned new songs, practice sports, listed to stories and crafted crowns, masks and meny other things. I would definitely recommend it.
