I feel absolutely compelled to warn anyone connected to this nursery—staff, parents, and the wider community—about the shocking level of unprofessionalism I experienced with the director Kevin.
In all my years dealing with childcare settings, I have never encountered someone in a leadership position who showed such blatant disregard for responsibility, transparency, and basic professionalism. My interactions with the director Kevin were beyond frustrating: evasive answers, broken promises, and a complete inability to handle essential matters in a reliable or competent way.
From my own experience, the way financial and organisational issues are handled is chaotic at best and downright irresponsible at worst. It left me questioning how someone who struggles so much with accountability could be trusted to run a childcare setting that depends on stability, honesty, and trust.
Parents deserve a place where leadership is solid and dependable. Staff deserve management that supports them instead of leaving them in the dark. The general public deserves to know when a nursery is being run by someone whose actions raise serious concerns.
Based on my experience, I would urge anyone connected to this nursery to be extremely cautious. Look very carefully at how the director conducts business, because what I’ve seen is completely unacceptable and far below the standards expected in a professional childcare environment.

Our family had recently moved to London from overseas and had settled in Wimbledon and needed a preschool for our 2 kids (boy and girl) aged 1 and 3.
Just like any other parents, we were nervous about enrolling our kids in a new preschool in a new country, Willows started & continued to be fantastic. Even our son who is naturally cautious and reserved was running excitedly into preschool within a couple of weeks (which never happens).
We were at Willows for 3 months before moving to a different part of London and thus needing to leave Willows, which was a real shame because our kids loved it there. They were always doing activities, or creating things, or going places, and just had so much fun. I'd consider it luck that we found Willows, but would wholeheartedly recommend Willows to other parents.
Special shoutout to Toni who was our son's keyworker - she is absolutely fantastic & such an asset for Willows: friendly, encouraging, active, engaging, playful, organised, and a leader.

I have my two kids growing up at Willows Wimbledon. It is a very unique nursery with nursery-school quality of teaching and day-care time. It works very well for both children and parents. Thanks to the all the teachers my elder one did splendid job on all London top school assessments just after Covid time. The best about the nursery is that the children even didn't feel they were learning so much on a daily basis. Happy children, happy family. Highly recommend.

My son has been at Willows for five months and I couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery. The staff are wonderful and so caring, and you can tell the children absolutely adore them! I can’t get over how much he is learning and how well the activities are planned, as well as how the staff pay attention to his particular interests. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a nursery.

Our three year old son attends Willows Nursery Wimbledon and we have been very pleased with it. From the manager to all the staff are showing an active interest in the children, take good care of them and arrange some excellent activities both internally as well as visits to local parks, libraries, even museums in London.
At a time when many nurseries are facing severe challenges with recruiting and retaining staff, we feel that everyone at Willows is doing an excellent job.
