October 21, 2020 at 12:00 amI have sent both my children to this nursery and would highly recommend it for their care and diligence when looking after all the children. My two thoroughly enjoyed their time there and were both sad to move on.

October 29, 2020 at 12:00 amMy daughter attended Boys and Girls in Rickmansworth for two and a half years, starting in the baby room just before her 1st birthday. She spent time in each of the four rooms (Baby, Pre-Toddlers, Toddlers and Pre-School) and thoroughly enjoyed her time in each room. There were never any tears dropping her off in the morning and she always returned happy and tired at the end of the day. The food must have been good as she always ate well during the day.
The room staff were always friendly and gave a good account of her day’s activity while the management and administration staff were responsive and helpful on the odd occasion where there was a need to discuss her care or her account.
On the whole, our experience was very positive and she was sad to leave and move onto her next adventure.

January 13, 2021 at 12:00 amFantastic nursery, the staff are all friendly and welcoming making the environment very warm. You can see that they all genuinely care about the children in the school and they are not just there to do a job. Fantastic home-cooked meals so you know your child is being fed properly as well. I couldn’t recommend Boys and Girls nursery enough.

January 13, 2021 at 12:00 amWe highly recommend Boys and Girls Rickmansworth. We’ve got two children there currently, our son who is in pre-school and our daughter who is in the baby room. Our son comes home each day excited to tell us about what he has learnt and what friends he played with, and our daughter (a lockdown baby) has settled quicker than we ever expected. The staff are caring, attentive, supportive and have a genuine enthusiasm for the children. There have been a lot of adjustments due to Covid and we’ve always felt that our children are safe at Boys and Girls and that the communication in keeping us up-to-date has been fantastic.

January 22, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter started at Boys & Girls Rickmansworth in January 2021. She was born in lockdown and due to all the restrictions throughout the year, we were worried about how she would settle considering the lack of contact she has had with other people. We are thoroughly impressed with all the staff at Boys & Girls Rickmansworth who look after our daughter like she’s their own, she has settled in no time and we have no issues with dropping her off. We get regular updates every day about what she has eaten, how she has slept and what she has done that day. We can’t thank the staff enough for making our daughter’s transition to nursery a smooth one.

January 28, 2021 at 12:00 amI highly recommend this nursery. Everything from the initial (virtual) tour to the induction process, regular newsletters/updates, varied food menu and the feedback on my child’s development has been top-notch. The girls working in the baby room are amazing, they settled in my child really well and she now can’t wait to go in and play each day. The structure they use for play and learning is clearly working, her development since starting nursery is clear to see. The nursery is handling the current pandemic situation excellently and their procedures leave me feeling confident that I can drop my baby off into a safe environment.

April 15, 2021 at 12:00 amBoys & Girls Rickmansworth have been absolutely fantastic with both of my children. My first has transitioned through all the rooms and has loved them all equally. She loves all the staff and all of the key workers. After the first lockdown closure, they made all the children feel so welcome, my daughter was delighted to be back there! My second started during the third lockdown and has loved every day. Her key worker has taken so much time to get to know her and provide her with a stable presence in the baby room. The staff are so supportive and welcoming, I couldn’t have hoped for better for my children.

June 23, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son had a great experience at Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, to the point where my son didn’t even feel upset to be leaving me. I felt thoroughly at ease and reassured, knowing that my son was getting such good care and attention. The feedback that we got on a daily basis was thorough and detailed; everything is documented. Thank you to his lovely keyworkers. I would definitely recommend this nursery!

July 7, 2021 at 12:00 amOur son has attended boys and girls Rickmansworth since he was just over 1yr old, he is due to leave at the end of August to start school. He took a while to settle but even so we could see the positive impact being at nursery was having. In particular, in the last 8 months, we have seen such positive social confidence in him. He seeks out ‘friends’ wherever we go and is super confident at introducing himself and interacting with people. He is our little superstar and we thank the part that Boys & Girs has played in developing him to where he is today.

July 7, 2021 at 12:00 amMy son joined the pre-toddler room at Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth and has moved up 2 stages into the pre-school room, we have never thought of moving him. I have always been impressed with the care shown at Boys and Girls. Staff have always made me feel confident that my son is not only looked after but valued by the team. He regularly comes home with new songs, new games and a whole range of stories which show not only how much he enjoys being in this nursery but how much progress he is making. His current key person is always warm and welcoming. They have been incredible during the pandemic, providing a safe environment and balancing the needs of us as parents with the difficult circumstances. Thank you to the manager and the team for everything you’ve done.

July 7, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending this nursery since Jan 2021 and it’s been really great. She had never attended nursery before and joined when she was 2.5 so I was a bit worried about how she would settle as she hadn’t mixed much with children her own age with all the Covid stuff going on. I have to say she settled in really well so quickly, the nursery and staff were excellent and she loves going to nursery. I’ve been so happy with her progress there really is nothing I can fault or say I’ve not been happy with. I’d highly recommend Boys & Girls Rickmansworth. Thank you for looking after my daughter so well and making her so happy.

October 14, 2021 at 12:00 amAs a parent, you just know when something feels right and I know when my daughter was close to turning 1 that I needed to return to work and ensure she was in a happy and safe environment for 4 full days a week. I took a tour around Boys & Girls when my daughter was barely 3 months old and I already knew it was perfect for her and us. I had seen nearly 6 local nurseries but none of them ticked all the boxes. My daughter has now been at the nursery for nearly a whole year and she has blossomed into a funny, caring and confident child.

April 29, 2022 at 12:00 amAfter 13 months of maternity leave in a pandemic, when we had barely been apart, I was quite nervous about my daughter starting nursery! But the team in the baby room have been brilliant from day one and we are so happy with how she has settled. They really got the measure of her quite quickly and we love receiving the feedback at the end of the day and the updates on the app. Her development has come on so much since being there, she’s much more confident and independent and seems to learn something new every day. Everyone at the nursery made us feel very welcome and made an effort to get to know her and us from the start. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

July 5, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter is currently in the pre toddler, dance room having started in March 2022. The transition into the room has been nothing short of fantastic. Both the key worker and all staff in the room and beyond have taken the time to make my daughter feel special. She has come on leaps and bounds in terms of developmental milestones and loves the homemade meals. One example of how the manager has gone above and beyond – I called to explain transitioning to cow’s milk wasn’t going well and the manager instantly added an alternative child’s milk to the order and her meal plan. My daughter’s key worker is kind and gentle with her and other children. It really is a lovely place! My son attended Boys and Girls for two years and had a similarly fantastic experience – what’s more, the garden has been upgraded since he attended, further enhancing the experience.

July 6, 2022 at 12:00 amOur daughter has been coming to Boys & Girls Nursery for a few months now and I cannot recommend them enough. As a first-time parent, leaving your child is so daunting but the nursery made the transition effortless and took so much of my worry away. My daughter loves going to the nursery and the team in the baby room takes such good care of her and is incredible. She is thriving and I see how much her development has come on since being there. I highly recommend them.

July 10, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been at Boys & Girls nursery since she was 10 months old. After touring the nursery I was adamant I wanted her to join and I made the right choice. She started in pre-toddlers and went through to pre-school and at every stage, all members of staff have been exceptional. I would recommend this nursery to anyone that wants a nursery that will allow their child to flourish as an individual.

August 9, 2022 at 12:00 amMy son is going to primary school in September but has been at Boys and Girls Nursery for the past 3 years. The staff are all so lovely and helpful and inclusive too as my son comes from a same sex family and they have always been very supportive and welcoming. My son will miss Boys and Girls Nursery but I would recommend it to anyone who is making the big decision of what nursery to send their child to. They will be in good hands.

November 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Boys & Girls Nursery for the last 8 months and she absolutely loves it.
The staff are lovely and I couldn’t be happier with the care she receives. Since my daughter has started the nursery, I have seen a huge improvement with her speech and general interaction skills, and this is all down to the wonderful team.

June 1, 2023 at 12:00 amWe are really happy our son is going to this amazing nursery. We are impressed by how smoothly he settled there, even after we had a previous bad experience with a different nursery. I really thought he would never be happy there, especially as he goes for a full day. He is no longer crying when I leave him there and gets more and more exited to spend time at the nursery. So many thanks to all the lovely ladies that are taking care of him. They have been great supporting him with potty training as well. Thank you for wiping his face when he is dirty (quite a rare thing at nurseries), helping him to learn while playing, and for teaching him how to have fun, sing, dance and get dirty. I know he gets yummy and nutritious food as well; every time we visit the nursery the smell is amazing, you just want to sit down and eat. Thank you.

June 27, 2023 at 12:00 amI only have positive words to say about the baby room at Boys & Girls Nursery Rickmansworth.
The room/building/facility is a lovely place to be. I’ve known most of the staff there for four years now (since my son started), they have been so consistent. They are great ladies with such high energy levels. We get such a welcome every day and such comprehensive feedback at the end of every day. They do such fun things with all the babies in the room and I can’t fault the food or facilities. It’s a happy, fun, safe place and my daughter has settled in brilliantly. I feel perfectly reassured that my daughter is in the best place she could possibly be whilst I’m at work – and that they truly care.
Thank you Boys and Girls – keep up the good work!
