September 18, 2020 at 12:00 amRainbow House is a delightful setting. Our son went to Rainbow House from the age of 6 months through 3 years, and our daughter is currently there and has been since she was 6 months old. The staff are unfailingly caring and nurturing, and the children have been excited to go there each morning. There aren’t very many children, which gives the children the chance to socialise across age ranges, and as the children grow they get the opportunity to help take care of the babies, which has helped our children become more responsible. They even manage to get our children to eat the food we send them, which is often the same food they refuse to eat at home, which is a minor miracle from my perspective. The fees are higher than many other nurseries in the area but in exchange for the quality of the staff we’ve found it well worth it.

September 24, 2020 at 12:00 amRainbow House is truly a very special and different kind of childcare setting, and anyone fortunate enough to have experienced it first-hand would know exactly what I mean! All three of my children attended Rainbow House, where the manager and her team nurtured and inspired my little ones in every aspect imaginable. They went above and beyond in instilling values of friendship, respect, and compassion in the children – with each other and with the local community – all whilst having loads of fun! The environment at Rainbow House is thoughtful and considered; it’s designed to be very sensorial and accessible, and the beautiful garden serves as a welcome haven for the children. My children’s individual personalities were encouraged to shine and they really thrived there. When it was time to leave for school, they left with a great sense of pride and with a plethora of happy memories of Rainbow House. Without any of our own family to help us in London, the manager and her team really became our tribe.

September 24, 2020 at 12:00 amRainbow House, and in particular the manager, with her holistic vision for early childhood development, proved a Godsend to our family of three boys, each of whom has benefitted enormously from her and her team’s care. This is a small group setting with a child-friendly garden and a regular routine of outings and fresh air, lots of activities, and a cosy nap. My boys are each and every one — as all children are! — totally different, and she deeply appreciates the specific needs of individual babies and toddlers. Her team creates a serene environment where a lovely family atmosphere takes hold between the children, allowing them to grow in the roles from ‘the baby’ to ‘the big one.’ I think Rainbow House is an excellent setting for working parents to trust their children; the nursery’s flexibility and response to emergency situations has always exceeded expectations. This is a very special place worth exploring.

October 22, 2020 at 12:00 amRainbow House has been absolutely amazing. Our daughter has been attending since she was 11 months and loves it there. At drop-off, she happily saunters in and waves us off with a smile. The team develops a range of inventive activities. I really like the activities also include physical challenges which are so important at this stage. In the same vein, there is a beautiful garden and I really appreciated that the default is to spend as much time outside as possible, weather permitting. Overall, Rainbow House develops the whole child. All staff are absolutely brilliant in caring for the kids and developing strong bonds. Finally, while I wish Rainbow House every success in its future growth, I do value having a smaller setting where children across a range of ages can interact with each other. The team are also great at providing updates whether on a daily basis at drop-off/pick-up or more formally through their web platform. Also very receptive to any concerns from the parent side. Grateful to have found it!

October 27, 2020 at 12:00 amWe have found Rainbow House to be an exceptional setting for our little one, who attended from the age of 11 months (she is now nearly 2). The staff are kind and caring, they do lovely and imaginative activities with the children. We appreciate how they spend plenty of time outside in the garden too. They focus on good manners and sitting up nicely at mealtimes which is much appreciated. They give good details/handover at pick up time too which is really helpful. Our daughter confidently runs up to the door in the morning and sings songs at home that she has learned at nursery. A lovely place.

July 23, 2021 at 12:00 amMany nurseries brand themselves as a “home away from home” but with Rainbow House Children Ltd it is truly the case. The children are always happy, and normally busy doing something thoughtful and creative, being kind and gentle with each other and the staff.
Walking into Rainbow House, you rarely hear a child cry or fuss, the atmosphere is creative and relaxing.
My kids attended Rainbow House since they were 6 months old until they were 3 years old or so. Even at such a young age, I know I am leaving them in a safe happy place.
Rainbow House is a mixed-age setting, which is wonderful as there are always slightly older role models, and younglings to care for.
You send your own packed lunch, which is a little more work; personally, I see it as an advantage as I have more control over their diet. Somehow, they’ll make them happily eat anything, so even at times when nutrition was challenging, I knew that their daytime nutrition was balanced.
Our family is very fortunate to have found Rainbow House

July 31, 2021 at 12:00 amWe had our son attend Rainbow house from a small 6 months old baby to a 3 year old boy. We were extremely happy with the nursery and our son flourished there. We felt he’s in a safe, calm, teaching, and happy environment. He was happy to go every day. Can’t recommend it enough!

August 31, 2021 at 12:00 amRainbow House is truly a miracle house! My son turned two and was extremely shy due to the impact of Covid and being homebound. After only a few weeks at Rainbow House, he has transformed immensely. He has grown in every aspect of development in such a short span of time. The team at Rainbow House is absolutely wonderful, warm, welcoming and give regular updates which I love. My son settled in quickly and truly enjoys his time there. He comes home singing nursery rhymes, communicating his wants and needs with ease and enjoys showing us everything that he has learnt at Rainbow House. They provide an all-round development in such a beautiful and personalised approach of valuing every child for who they are through well thought out activities. They have a spacious outdoor garden where a lot of fun activities like gardening, fruit picking, treasure hunts and craftwork are planned. I highly recommend Rainbow House as they provide every child with a strong well-rounded foundation!

November 15, 2021 at 12:00 amI couldn’t imagine a better place for my son and I am so grateful to the manager and her team of wonderful, kind carers. My son joined Rainbow House at seventeen months old at a time when he only wanted to be with his mum and dad. We did a gradual settling in and thanks to the manager’s patience and through various engaging activities and a lot of one to one time they built trust and a great relationship with him. My son loves going to Rainbow House and talks about his carers and his friends constantly! They do perform miracles – he eats his lunch even on days when he eats nothing at home. At nap time he goes to sleep on his own (since his first full day) even though he has never done this at home once! After two months his vocabulary exploded with English words and phrases. They are constantly doing fun activities- playing in the garden, messy play, arts and crafts – each week has a different theme. I would highly recommend Rainbow House, they have exceeded all my expectations. It’s a truly magical, happy place!

April 24, 2023 at 12:00 amRainbow House has come as a blessing for our daughter. We struggled quite a bit with nurseries before we found Rainbow House and the moment we entered the setting, we knew this was the right place for our little one. It had a serene environment, calm carers, wonderful aroma of the oils and happily chatting children. It was as if a scene from a children’s book had come alive. The patience of the team, especially with the settling-in period, is commendable. The children are given a warm welcome with smiles and hugs at the entrance and that is when one knows that we are leaving our child in a safe setting Our daughter started becoming more independent within just one month. She started sleeping by herself, eating her own food. Each week she learns new things (there are different themes planned carefully by the team). Rainbow House truly transcends expectations on all fronts. They not only take care of children, they help them grow which makes them different from everybody else.
