June 17, 2016 at 12:00 amWhen my daughter first started Scribbles in September 2015 she was failing to thrive and was extremely clingy. From she has started the girls have all worked with me and my daughter’s needs and helped me a lot with my many dilemmas regarding her health. From she was diagnosed with having cows milk protein intolerance the girls have simply took it in their stride and shop to cater for her needs whilst also helping me with suggestions with regards to what she can and cannot eat. I have always felt the staff very warm and friendly and my daughter who is now 17 months has only ever cried after me once… she literally waves me buy buy and blows me kisses and beams and waves at the staff. I really cant praise the staff enough.

July 11, 2017 at 12:00 amI’m so pleased that we found you! We moved to the area and you were recommended by my sister, and from day one you have all been amazing! You have all made my little one feel so welcome and us too 🙂 You are all amazing and I know my son will miss you all so much when he leaves for school. You have helped him on his journey to become an independent, funny, kind, caring and loving little boy. His confidence has really grown and he is already asking to come back for holiday club!
Thank you all so much for making his time with you such fun and filled with love, laughter and happiness.

September 11, 2017 at 12:00 amWe would thoroughly recommend Scribbles Day Nursery. It has been a fabulous experience for our whole family. The staff have all been wonderful. They’ve really brought our son out of himself and gently encouraged him to try new things and broaden his experience. He’s loved all the extra-curricular activities like French, Spanish, dancing and football and the home-cooked dinners are the best. We’ve felt so happy knowing he was in such safe hands. We were all so sad to say goodbye but he leaves them ready for school and with lots of new friends.

September 15, 2017 at 12:00 amScribbles is an outstanding nursery, where children are truly nurtured and treasured.
The manager is a superstar and her team is excellent: a great mix of more experienced practitioners and bright young things!
A learning-through-play ethos is at the heart of what the nursery does and we were delighted by our son’s progress through the EYFS framework. We enjoyed reading and contributing to his online Tapestry journal.
Extra curricular activities are extremely good. Regular activities include karate, Jo Jingles, rugby and football. With visits from Zoolabs and Booster Cushion Theatre, nature walks, Mad Hatters Tea Party, Barnado’s Big Toddle, Harvest festival and Christmas parties, a child will not get bored at this nursery!
Scribbles is small but perfectly formed, with a lovely family feel. There is no danger of a child getting lost there, either physically or emotionally. At the same time, it is still highly professionally run and standards are rigorously maintained.
Thank you, Scribbles!

January 8, 2018 at 12:00 amAll three of my children have attended Scribbles Pre-school, my oldest starting in February 2012 and my youngest starting in January 2018. It provides a caring, creative, stimulating, focused and fun environment. Its greatest asset is its consistent, experienced and committed staff. I would recommend it to anyone.

January 23, 2018 at 12:00 amBoth my son and daughter have thrived at Scribbles. They prepared my son very well for school and my daughter has grown in confidence.
I feel my children are safe and well looked after.
The staff are brilliant, many are mums themselves. Staff clearly enjoy working at the nursery quite a lot of them have been there for a number of years – unlike many nurseries who have a high turnover of young staff.
They make the best use their outside facilities, getting children out in the fresh air as much as possible. I love the unique location next to the church.

March 6, 2018 at 12:00 amOur 15 months old son started attending Scribbles mid-January. He is clearly very happy there and has made tremendous progress. He is looked after in the best possible way and that is very comforting to us. We wouldn’t have anyone else look after him.

May 2, 2018 at 12:00 amMy daughter joined Scribbles when she was fifteen months and is about to start school this September. She has thrived there. The staff are kind, warm and genuinely care about the children. It’s a home from home feel and I have always felt reassured that my daughter is in safe hands. There are so many activities available for them to do, karate, yoga, golf, dance, baby sighing etc. They have always accommodated any last minute requests. My daughter has always been so happy at Scribbles and I feel that she is very much prepared to move up to school in September.

May 4, 2018 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Scribbles Epping for about 2 and a half years now and she has loved it ever since.
The most impressive thing about Scribbles is the staff. Each key worker my daughter has been assigned, as she progressed through the years, has been excellent.
My daughter often plays ‘Nursery’ at home. Pretending to be one of the staff and her teddies as the children. Staff are highly attentive and seem to have a brilliant relationship with all the children.
The care/playrooms are large and there a number of activities for the children. My child’s favourites are Little signers, jogingles, karate, cooking and gardening club.
I would happily recommend Scribbles Epping to anyone.

May 14, 2018 at 12:00 amMy child has attended Scribbles since January 2018 and he absolutely loves it there. The staff are fantastic, they are caring, supportive and really encourage continuous development. Every member of staff knows the name of every child and can tell you what they’ve been up to that day. You can tell they all take great pride in nurturing the children.
Scribbles has a very homely relaxed feel about it and is set in a lovely location, with plenty of outdoor space. Their focus is very much on creating confident independent pre-schoolers and this is exactly what my child is growing up to be.
I am very happy with the care my child receives every day at Scribbles and would not hesitate to highly recommend the nursery to others.

May 24, 2018 at 12:00 amBoth of my children have been to Scribbles Day Nursery and I have been incredibly happy with the care that they receive. The ladies who work at the nursery know my children so well and take great care to tailor activities to suit their needs and interests. The nursery is warm and welcoming and my children really enjoy going. There are no complaints when we drop them off and they’re never in a rush to leave.
They make good use of the outdoor environment as well as extracurricular activities. I have recommended the nursery to others in the past and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again.

June 5, 2018 at 12:00 amI feel since my daughter started Scribbles, she’s come out of her shell. As time went on, her confidence has grown so much. She now finds it easier mixing with other children at Scribbles, her speech and communication have come on so well.
The one to one has been fantastic towards my daughter, to help her and she has benefitted greatly from this.
All the staff members at Scribbles are great and very dedicated people in what they do in their job.

June 12, 2018 at 12:00 amHaving moved my son to Scribbles after the Christmas period, the staff at Scribbles were so enthusiastic and made me feel relaxed in the move to Essex. All the staff do so much with the children especially all the extras, he does, karate, Spanish and French and has just started golf. I don’t know of any nursery that offers this much to the high standard Scribbles offers.

June 18, 2018 at 12:00 amMy son was made to feel very welcome at Scribbles and settled very quickly.
The home from home feeling I got from the nursery is why I chose it.

August 7, 2018 at 12:00 amCould not recommend this nursery enough. My son started about a month ago and he literally has the best time. It’s reassuring knowing that he is safe and with people that truly care about him. He has come on a long way even in just a few weeks which is amazing!

September 17, 2018 at 12:00 amThis nursery is the best thing I could have done for my son! He has really progressed over the past few months and has learnt how to behave around children and play nicely! It’s clear how much he enjoys nursery and the staff are amazing with him. Thank you for giving him his one to one time when he has needed it, this has really helped him settle quickly and feel secure.
From the viewing, I had of this nursery I knew it was the one. Having viewed three other nurseries before Scribbles I felt nervous about putting my son into the nursery and was contemplating waiting until he was older.
Since finding Scribbles and my son attending, I now feel completely relaxed and happy knowing that my son will be well and truly looked after and get the benefits of attending from an earlier age.
A big thank you to all of the staff at Scribbles!!

October 26, 2018 at 12:00 amI could not recommend this nursery highly enough. I have two daughters, one now aged 4 and a 2 year old. Both have attended full time since they were 8 months old.
They have both flourished and learnt so much at Scribbles. I couldn’t be more proud of my two girls and how they have grown and developed into the beauties they are – and most of that work is down to you; spending more time at nursery than at home. They both run in and are always happy when I collect them at the end of the day. The care from staff is second to none. They treat them like their own and will do anything for them to keep them safe and happy.
To all at Scribbles; congratulations on your amazing Ofsted. Outstanding is not easy to get!!! But very well deserved and earnt. You truly are amazing. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do.
Wishing you every success in the future. I won’t be having any more! But if I did (I repeat – I won’t be!) I wouldn’t think twice about sending them to you ??

November 12, 2018 at 12:00 amA lovely, happy place to be for the children! My daughter absolutely loves it at Scribbles and I feel reassured dropping her off in the morning knowing she will be having a day full of fun whilst being cared for competently.
The activities and special days put on really give the pre school that extra special touch in my opinion. I am always recommending to local mums and dads.

January 28, 2019 at 12:00 amAn outstanding nursery with very caring and accommodating staff and nurturing environment. My daughter has attended since the age of 11 months (she is now 3 and a half) and has positively thrived. Could not have wished for a better place. Thank you Scribbles!

September 29, 2020 at 12:00 amWe put our 14-month-old son into Scribbles Day Nursery during a very unsettled time moving home and changing jobs. They were very welcoming and within a week he was desperate to go in! I loved the daily Tapestry updates and information on his development. Was very sad to leave as we emigrated.
