November 27, 2018 at 12:00 amWe have had kids in Fennies St Augustines Avenue since 2013, we are extremely happy with the care the staff give and feel it’s been the best choice to help our kids develop and progress.

November 27, 2018 at 12:00 amThe environment is very safe, easy to locate and suitable for a child to develop and grow within their stages, which my children have achieved and beyond. The staff are extremely supportive, loving, friendly and caring, treating individual children with empathy. I can’t fault anything about this nursery, I’m so grateful that my three children experience their effortless and timing contribution into their lives. I will recommend any parent for their child to experience what my children have and more. Thank you so much, everyone.

December 4, 2018 at 12:00 amThe staff and carers at Fennies are all very friendly and take an interest in my little girl’s day. The children spend time doing lots of different fun activities to keep them engaged and happy. I always feel very comfortable that my daughter is in good hands and being looked after and feed well. The carers take time to explain what she’s enjoyed, eaten and played with that day and listen to any concerns. I would definitely recommend this nursery to others.

September 3, 2019 at 12:00 amI can’t fault Fennies. They look after my daughter with such care and attention and they genuinely enjoy caring for her. The other day she was in the big girls room for a settle in and everyone came to say goodbye and have a cuddle as they hadn’t seen her in her normal room. They actively try to improve all the time, with new toys and activities and they are constantly improving their services such as food and communication through the app etc. Well done Fennies.

March 15, 2021 at 12:00 amWe moved our eldest to this nursery after a bad experience with a previous nursery and our youngest started at the same time in the baby room. We have had an amazing experience the whole way through our journey, from settling during the pandemic, to the team accommodating us when our needs changed. The staff have always been helpful, friendly and could not do enough to support us. We are very sad to be leaving and had we not moved out of the area, we would have continued having the kids there until they started school. Thank you to the team for being so wonderful, professional and doing an amazing job through what has been a tough year for everyone. We have to make a shout out to some particular staff members, who have helped make our children feel so welcome. Our little ones will miss you all very much.

April 30, 2021 at 12:00 amThe best nursery in South Croydon. Our daughter has been there since February 2019 when she was a baby. We moved her from another nursery due to concerns. This nursery has very caring staff, allows the children to strive without judgment of your parenting style, follows early learning strategies, provide a good balanced diet and give freedom to learn at the child’s pace. Our daughter loves it, she is learning so much and made many friends. Overall I would highly recommend this nursery to others.

April 30, 2021 at 12:00 amWhen we visited we had a great feeling, the added extras and focus on the development and well-being of all children was so clear. As our son has moved through the age groups we have seen a wonderful range of activities tailored to his interests and development. Staff are always keen to keep in touch and the daily updates and photos are so valuable for keeping us informed and talking with our child about his day. Staff have also shown an interest in personal needs and supported us in toilet training and encouraging variety in food choices with amazing results. Can’t recommend more highly!

April 30, 2021 at 12:00 amA friendly and welcoming nursery with beautiful facilities. The garden is really good and they have lots of fun toys and activities to play with outside. The rooms are bright, fun and there is plenty of space to play, learn, eat and sleep. My children both settled in very quickly and love going, my daughter always asks for “more nursery” as soon as we get home!

November 1, 2021 at 12:00 amSince my daughter has started at Fennies South Croydon, she has thrived in their environment. The staff are so friendly, approachable, affectionate towards my daughter and professional. The communication between nursery and home is amazing due to tapestry being updated regularly and when my daughter was off sick, they were calling me to check how she was. I cannot fault the nursery or staff and only wish I had moved my daughter there sooner.

December 14, 2021 at 12:00 amSince my son started at Fennies at 8 months old, he has gone from strength to strength. Constantly busy with different activities and messy play. All the staff are super reassuring and friendly, and I always feel comfortable knowing he’s in safe hands! I feel like my little one has settled in so well all thanks to the fantastic staff! Can’t fault them in any way.

December 14, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter attends Fennies St Augustine’s and is in the baby room. We couldn’t be happier with how she has settled in since July 2021. Her key workers do so many amazing activities with the children and you can tell they are so loved and well looked after. We have seen so much development in my daughter since she started and that is down to the great job her key workers do. My daughter has settled so so well, she eats and naps so well. I am so happy with everything in the baby room. It really makes bringing your baby to nursery such an easy process when you know they are in such wonderful hands.

January 6, 2022 at 12:00 amFennies St Augustine is a lovely nursery. My child has been thriving and has made so much progress ever since he’s started there. He takes part in a range of activities every week and has so much fun getting creative every day. The website used to record his progress is great as I can check what my child has been up to during the day thanks to his care diary and the photos his practitioners upload regularly every week.
Staff are very friendly and my child’s practitioners are looking after him so well. I would highly recommend.

March 16, 2022 at 12:00 amWe are very impressed with the level of care our 22-month-old receives from this nursery. The staff are all warm, friendly and professional. My son warmed to them instantly and loves being there. It is a nice bright, clean environment and our son always comes home very clean!
The daily activities are well planned out and fun and nicely tailored to their development.
A lovely nursery where our son is thriving.

July 25, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Fennies St Augustine’s since she was 8 months old and she settled very quickly. I have been so impressed with the level of care and nurture provided by the staff. I feel happy dropping her off each day knowing she is very well looked after. She has made excellent progress and enjoys taking part in exciting and innovative activities. There is regular feedback and all queries are addressed immediately. I would highly recommend the nursery, our daughter loves it and so do we! Couldn’t ask for more as a parent.

August 17, 2023 at 12:00 amI would highly recommend this nursery. The staff are very welcoming and understanding of my son’s needs. They took their time out to listen to my concerns from a previous nursery my son was in.
Since then, I have had no issues even though we were here for a short time. I would highly recommend to anyone to put their child in this nursery. Communication is fantastic, and all my queries are dealt with very professionally.
Very happy with the service.
