July 14, 2022 at 12:00 amThe care provided by Cornerstone from before her first Birthday right up until her final days as she prepares for school life has been outstanding. My child has flourished in an environment where she is cared for and she is a happy and content child. She has learnt a vast array of educational topics, social skills and simply understanding the world around her. With extra needs, I couldn’t have been happier with her being anywhere else as she has been looked after attentively and compassionately. I thank each and every staff member for being a part of her amazing journey at Cornerstone. Very happy and grateful parent.

July 14, 2022 at 12:00 amCornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School is an excellent nursery. The staff are gentle, kind and nurturing and genuinely care for each and every child. They adapt their care to each child’s needs and go out of their way to make the nursery experience a positive when. When my son started there he had never fallen asleep independently – they cuddled him to sleep every day for weeks. That sums up their approach, in my mind. Facilities are excellent, management are engaged and approachable and the children are happy. It’s a wonderful place, it really is.

July 22, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have put our son into Cornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School for five years and really are very happy with how things have worked out. The staff are lovely and really do their very best for the children. If there has been an issue raised they have not ignored us and have been ‘on it’. So this is key for us. We feel very happy and secure leaving him there. The garden area has improved and we think overall things have got better – which is the best way around! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and put any other children we have in!

August 16, 2022 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been at Cornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School for a year and we really love the nursery. The staff are so caring and committed and go above and beyond for the children. The range of activities is fantastic, and our daughter always arrives home bursting to tell us what she has been up to. The staff are “on it” with any issues and have created a lovely environment where our little girl is thriving.

March 23, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Cornerstone for less than 6 months and he has settled very well. The staff were reassuring during the settling period and offered great support throughout. The nursery itself feels homely and we are always welcomed with a smile, he is always happy when I drop and pick him up.
The staff and management are lovely and very welcoming.

March 25, 2023 at 12:00 amLovely nursery and preschool with caring, fun staff. Great outdoor space. I’ve had two children at the setting over the past five years and have been impressed by the low staff turnover and the way they go above and beyond to stimulate and engage the children. Our kids have made great friends there and it’s rare to see any of the children looking bored or unhappy.

March 25, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been at Cornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School for nearly 2 years, arriving at ten months old. I only have good things to say. The staff are lovely and they all know every child in the building. The activities are well planned and educational. They manage behaviour very well and issues are raised early. The only thing which could be improved is the outside space but being a London nursery I know this is trickier and they do take the children on day trips to the park when the weather is fair. A lot of effort is put into special events, charity days, Christmas performance etc, it’s a lovely and thoughtful environment.

March 25, 2023 at 12:00 amI have only positive things to say about Cornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School. The staff are all wonderful, bringing such care, thought and fun to looking after the children, focusing on their development, attuned to their needs and feelings, and encouraging the independence and resilience they will need for the future. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone, and would love to pass on my huge thanks to every member of the team!

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amOur eldest child started in the baby room in mid-2018 and stayed at Cornerstone right up until she started school in September 2021. We were so happy with our first experience that our youngest child started in the baby room in early 2021. We have been very happy with all the staff in each of the rooms – they take great care in looking after the children and create a wonderfully safe and loving environment.
Both children have really enjoyed their time at the nursery and have grown and developed hugely as a result of the high-quality support they are given.
I have recommended the nursery to many friends and would recommend it to everyone looking for a safe loving environment for their child to flourish. Thank you, Cornerstone staff and management.

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amThe staff and management at the Cornerstone Nursery in Sydenham are fantastic!
They are very caring, loving and hard-working. They love their job and do it with pride. The managers are also very helpful. My son likes the place, he has improved tremendously with the support of the staff.

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amThe nursery states that it provides a ‘ calm, friendly and home-like atmosphere which cultivates a sense of security in children and helps transition between the home and school.’
We have had our baby in the nursery from 11m old and she is coming up to her 4th month. We chose this nursery for its level of calm and have not been disappointed. The staff genuinely feel like an extension of your own family, offering advice when needed and tailoring to your family’s needs as / when changes need to occur.
I feel comfortable and safe leaving my child there and she is developing in confidence day by day. The nursery leaders are excellent from the manager through to the head of learning. Additionally, I feel confident that the team have been promoted internally and that there is a stable staff base (compared to other nurseries).

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Cornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School since the age of 1 and has been placed in the baby room. He is now nearly 2. My experience with Cornerstone has been exceptional. Right from my son’s setting in sessions you felt such a warmth and genuine passion from the staff. They all go above and beyond every day. They host so many interesting activities and events relevant to different things that happen throughout the year. They always make such an effort. We are provided with reassuring updates via an app throughout the day, including photos, nappy changes, sleep times and a food diary. My son has flourished over the past 8 months and he loves attending. I honestly couldn’t be happier with my choice in nurseries. Well done Cornerstone!

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been at Cornerstone Day Nursery & Pre-School since she was 7 months old. Having the confidence to leave a child that young in the hands of the Cornerstone team is probably the strongest testimony of how much we trust their staff. They are an incredibly caring and professional nursery team that is absolutely adored by our 1 year old daughter!
