September 20, 2024 at 7:31 pmThe team are second to none and form close bonds with the kids based on an ethos of kindness and respect. We would highly suggest Gumboots. We sense so highly lucky that our little girl is at Gumboots – she’s absolutely thrived there and is a confident, compassionate and cheerful kid which is no doubt in part because of the care and development she receives at childcare centre.

October 4, 2024 at 1:00 pmBoth are in full-time. My daughter has moved from the baby room now to the preschool room and it’s been excellent to see how in each stage they have supported and nurtured her. She loves going to childcare centre! Also, my son has recently joined the baby room and has quickly adapted and is enjoying the childcare centre journey as much as my eldest. Team are welcoming and nurturing and kids are consistently doing excellent activities throughout the day. Definitely made joining the workforce full-time less challenging as I know they are in excellent hands. Gumboots Childcare centre & Pre-School has been a fantastic setting where my two kids have thrived.

October 13, 2024 at 1:38 amInteresting menus and activities and he has made lots of friends (as have we). He loves it, most importantly! We adore Gumboots – our son has been there since he was 10 months old and I can’t rate the care highly enough.

November 19, 2024 at 1:05 amThe garden is highly big for this area of London and I truly like knowing that the kids are outside regularly. The food that is prepared daily is wide-ranging and doesn’t shy away from dishes that introduce new tastes. The childcare centre has a warmth and energy to it which I didn’t find elsewhere when looking for my daughter.

December 3, 2024 at 10:32 amFantastic/secure/loving/discovering setting for my 3 year old and I could not ask for more.
Most of all- Management are the best I’ve ever encountered and are beyond supportive and accommodating.
The manager and her team are the reason for why this is the best childcare centre in East Dulwich!

December 10, 2024 at 2:00 amExcellent activities and events are planned.
My son loves it and comes out with so many things that he can only have learnt at childcare centre, surprises me every time, it’s excellent. A lovely and attentive team team, exceptional garden and remarkable menu.

December 15, 2024 at 1:42 amMy two-and-a-half-year-old has been there for 13 months now and can’t get through the door quick enough most days. He’s made some incredible friends and adores the team who work there.
The outdoor space is remarkable, even more so when you consider the childcare centre is in London and they make sure they get outside almost every day – rain or shine! I’ve signed my second baby up to go when he’s old enough too. Fantastic setting for kids to playtime and learn.

February 3, 2025 at 5:14 amTruly cheerful with the care our daughter gets at Gumboots and the education she is recieving. When you tell your daughter she’s going to childcare centre and she does a little dance to celebrate – you know that they are doing something right!

February 4, 2025 at 11:44 amOur youngest daughter who still attends Gumboots has developed in so many ways and is a more confident kid and looks forward to going into childcare centre every day. The childcare centre itself is a enjoyable and lively setting and I think it provides the backdrop for more effective discovering.
Our journey of Gumboots has been remarkable and we would definitely suggest it to others. Our daughters have all attended Gumboots over the years.

February 11, 2025 at 6:38 amI was apprehensive about her settling in a childcare centre setting given her sensitive side but she was assured and involved from day one. The team are welcoming and the setting enjoyable and inspiring. We will be sending our second daughter there too. Our daughter has been at Gumboots Community Childcare centre for 16 months now and loves it.

February 11, 2025 at 6:21 pmMy son practically runs in in the morning and gives everyone a big cuddle when he leaves. I leave cheerful in the knowledge that not only is he well looked after and cared for but loved also. The team in his room give off such a part of the family vibe. Gumboots is a real joy to be part of – the manager and team are all so lovely, welcoming and attentive!

April 20, 2025 at 12:57 pmThe team are consistently compassionate, patient and enthusiastic. The preparation for the next steps of attending school is also highly well planned. Our daughter and son have both attended Gumboots for a number of years and received exemplary care.

April 25, 2025 at 6:42 amWe have a highly special relationship with so many of the team here, as she started in the baby room and is now in preschool! They have helped her grow and develop in a nurturing and supportive setting. We are so cheerful with the level of care, variety of activities, food menu options, and social outings she gets to delight in. We sense highly lucky that she attends and hope to have her other sibling join soon too. My daughter has attended Gumboots Childcare centre childcare centre since 2020.

May 31, 2025 at 7:53 pmThe team are so attentive and know each kid individually to ensure their needs are met. There’s also a nice big outside space which our two adore! We adore being part of the Gumboots community, it has been a joy to send our two daughters there over the past couple of years knowing they will receive the best care and also the opportunity to get involved in so many different activities throughout the day.

July 5, 2025 at 6:45 amThe manager and her team are so attentive and thorough. There is no other childcare centre we sense compares! We even moved house and continue to travel 20 minutes by car to Gumboots because we adore it so much! Thank you, to the manager and your team for everything! Such an incredible childcare centre!
