February 19, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter absolutely loves coming to New Eltham Pre-School. She loves the staff and has such a great time. We know that when we drop her off she is in safe hands. Because of our jobs we have had to continue to work during the pandemic and the nursery has been a godsend, proving some level of normality for our daughter.

February 23, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter has loved her time at New Eltham Day Nursery. She enjoyed her time in the baby, toddler, nursery and preschool rooms. She bonded well with all of the staff and has made a lovely little group of friends. As parents, it has been so reassuring to see her run in happily every day, and she tells us off if we pick her up too early as she always wants to carry on playing. The staff are all lovely, caring and professional. The rooms are newly refurbished, clean and well equipped. The gardens are great, and the children’s kitchen and sensory rooms are an added bonus. The food is very good quality, and the on-site chef is a great asset to the setting. We are so happy we found New Eltham for our daughter. It’s been perfect!

May 18, 2021 at 12:00 amOur little one has thoroughly enjoyed every day spent at New Eltham Day Nursery. Joining in baby room, moving up through toddler and nursery rooms and now about to graduate preschool. The staff, led by the nursery manager have been tremendous throughout and we have had 100% confidence in all of them. They have managed the challenges of the last year expertly and have given us confidence that our child has been safe whilst providing an uninterrupted service of childcare without the need to close our bubble, a testament to the hard work of the team at New Eltham. It’s a friendly and welcoming nursery in a newly refurbished building with amazing gardens for the children to enjoy and explore. We wholeheartedly recommend New Eltham and will be really sad to leave this chapter behind us when the time comes to move on.

May 25, 2021 at 12:00 amWe are very pleased with the nursery, as is our son. He is happy to go every day and enjoys attending the nursery. We have no negative comments regarding the nursery. The only critique is that I wished there was an app to log on and see my sons daily progress instead of the paper charts. I understand that this is something that is being developed though, so I look forward to this coming along soon.

November 1, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter absolutely loves it, she has been there for over a year and moved up to her third room now. Each room has been great with excellent key workers and room leaders, all the activities they do are brilliant. I love the fact that they spend as much time as they can outside and exploring, my daughter has come on leaps and bounds since joining. The food they have is great too and great variety of flavours.

July 11, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son started in the toddler room in April this year and he loves it! He has made such a lovely bond with his key person, which is so nice to see. He always comes home with some amazing artwork and some of the activities they do are brilliant. The nursery have a great app which tells me all about my son’s day, as well as his development progress, which is completed by his key person. This is also a good way to communicate with the toddler room team and share activities and days out that we do at home. The nursery building itself is fairly new and has a large outdoor area and as my son loves being outdoors, this is great for him. The management team at New Eltham are very accommodating to my son’s needs and went above and beyond to support during the settling-in process. Thank you.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has recently started at Bright Horizons, shortly after she turned 2 years old. She has been there a few months now and I can say the staff there are very friendly and constantly try to do their best for the children. They have tonnes to do and lots of interaction for the little ones. They do events (like Halloween and Christmas) and both were very enjoyable for the children and you can join them to see how they get on in the class. Overall, a wonderful experience for both my child and myself so far, highly recommended nursery!

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amHave two boys that have gone through this nursery, they have been great. Our boys are not the most compliant children you have met! I can’t fault this nursery and staff at all, they have allowed our boys to flourish and developed their own confident personalities.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amStaff at the preschool are fantastic, they do clearly care about the children. We see the same faces every day and staff are always happy. The facilities are great and the children are always doing a variety of different activities. There is a lot of outside space and the children have access to the space, all day. Food is healthy and varied and it has greatly improved my son’s fussy eating. Would highly recommend.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amAn amazing nursery. Friendly and supportive staff, who form real relationships with the children and parents. Great communication via the app, with frequent images of the day and a varied and wide ranging curriculum of activities.

February 2, 2023 at 12:00 amI have nothing but brilliant things to say about this nursery, my girls go in and leave happy, every day. I know that my children will be supported and cared for highly, whilst being encouraged to challenge themselves and learn new skills. The girls mix with the loveliest bunch of children every day. They laugh, cuddle and play together so well. Everyone who works here, whether it’s management, to lunchtime cover, always have a smile on their face and a real care for the children and that really shows. This nursery is fabulous.

February 3, 2023 at 12:00 amOverall, a positive experience with the nursery. My son is very happy there and he enjoys going daily. The staff are nice and helpful and the facilities are generally in good working order for the children.

February 3, 2023 at 12:00 amI am very happy with the nursery itself. However, do not have enough information about my child’s activities on a daily basis. Another weak point is a good presentation. My child does not like any kind of sauce and remains hungry when it’s already added to the dish. Apart from that, I feel that the staff take great care of my little one helping him to settle, to interact with other kids and to get and develop new skills.

February 3, 2023 at 12:00 amThe staff are very friendly and professional. The environment is just amazing. Honestly, I love it there! I know my child is definitely safe there. They have different activities for the children.

February 6, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth my girls have been to New Eltham and loved it. My eldest started school as a confident and robust little girl – The nursery were great preparing her for that. She was a muddy and creative child and the nursery embraced and encouraged that too, which I really appreciated. She came home muddy and full of paint almost every day – it was fantastic! Often she didn’t want to come home! My younger daughter currently attends the nursery. She too does so many activities that I would never think to do at home and I really enjoy seeing the pictures that the nursery staff post almost every day. The nursery have been asking for feedback recently and I’ve noticed that they’ve really listened and actioned a lot of suggestions already – tea parties with parents for example, which I think the kids are really enjoying. The staff there are energetic and thoughtful and my daughter is really comfortable with them. It’s a lovely nursery and sets kids up great for their big move to school.

February 15, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended the nursery since May 2022. She seems to be quite happy to wave us goodbye in the morning when dropping her off in the nursery.
Overall, it has been a good experience in terms of the space/facilities; the nursery is the best in the vicinity. Recent staff changes in the youngest group due to permanent staff departures, a higher portion of agency employees aren’t great, but we will monitor her mood and adaptability.
Management is responsive and tries to accommodate requests when asked.
