Brixton Nursery & Pre-School

My granddaughter for more than 1 year participates in this nursery and she is always happy to meet her friends. She enjoys (a lot!) the meals offered and learned countless songs that she always repeats at home. Her development is stimulated by the proposed activities and the staff are very attentive when I go there.

Our daughter, who is now 14 months old, started at Brixton Nursery at the beginning of this year. We visited a lot of nurseries in the local Brixton/Stockwell/Oval/Clapham area and this one was easily our favourite. Even though it doesn’t have as much outdoor space as many of the others, this didn’t matter to us because the nursery itself had such a welcoming and professional atmosphere (plus we know that the children are regularly taken out and visit the recreational facilities). The staff are incredible, so friendly and really communicative about everything, from our daughter’s activities that day to any issues that have arisen. Our daughter has developed a great deal since starting at the nursery and the staff put a lot of effort into things like sensory development and language skills, and it’s clear from feedback and all the photos that are shared that the kids have a lot of fun too. We are really happy with the nursery and so glad we found somewhere we like so much.

Brixton LEYF is the most wonderful nursery. Our children have been there since 2015, and we have been extremely happy. The most recent management team, in particular, have been especially effective, running the place smoothly, communicating brilliantly with parents, constantly focussing on development for the little ones. Although there is limited outdoor space, the nursery can use the facilities in the leisure centre – the huge soft play, the fitness studio and (for the oldest children) the swimming pool. So when you add that in it means that the lack of outdoor space is less of a problem! There seems to be low staff turnover – or at least the good ones stick around! The long-serving members of staff are just brilliant. Such a loving environment, we trust them completely.

Brixton Nubrsey is a really warm and friendly nursery. The staff are brilliant and put so much effort into providing interesting, fun and challenging activities for the children. They have their own chef to prepare meals, and they can use the facilities in the leisure centre, like soft play, which is great!

The staff are great, they all really care about the children. I love the fact that the children get to use the facilities of the leisure centre too, it’s a real bonus of the nursery being located there.

Our daughter (now 18-months) loves it here! She toddles in waving at all her friends and smiling happily. She loves all the brilliant teachers, who are the most positive and friendly people I’ve ever met. They genuinely love each child and take the time to get to know them and celebrate their individual personalities. I don’t know where they all get their energy from, but it seems boundless.
As a first time mum, I was sad to go back to work, but it has been amazing knowing that our daughter is so happy and so well cared for. She has learned so much in such a short space of time, and we are so grateful to all the teachers for being so wonderful with her.

My son has attended Brixton Leyf Nursery since he was one and now, two years later, he still runs into nursery with glee every day without fail. The Brixton team are incredibly warm, careful, sensitive and thoughtful and I know that he feels safe and secure. Everyone has taken the time to get to know him as an individual and it is clear that they understand what makes him tick, how to encourage him to learn and participate in all their imaginative activities and also when he just needs a cuddle. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough.

We are so happy to see our son thrive at Brixton nursery! He’s been attending for several months now and it’s a joy to see his smile as he enters the nursery room every day. In a short amount of time, we’ve seen him develop in an amazing way. He is so happy, he loves the teachers who take such good care of him! All staff are always very friendly, happy to share what the kids have done and how they’re evolving. We’re very happy with the choice of nursery for sure!

Our daughter had the best experience here. A wonderful nursery where children can develop and learn in a safe, caring and fun environment.
I cannot speak higher of the place. The Manager and room leaders absolutely top-notch!

Our two children attended Brixton LEYF Nursery at the early ages of 1 year old and right up to graduation day, before they headed off to primary school. Our son now 8 years old has great fond memories of nursery and the great bonds he made with his teachers and friends, which he’s still in contact with. Likewise, our daughter, now 4 years old and has recently graduated this summer 2022 and is in primary school reception. She’s had a fantastic happy, learning and playing experience at Brixton LEYF nursery and made great friends along the way. They both have been thriving ever since and that’s thanks to all the nurture, dedication, interest in their wellbeing and warmth they received from all their teachers, including managers and chefs, over the years. As new parents, we took the chance and gut feeling with Brixton LEYF nursery and we are ever so grateful and satisfied with our children’s well-being and enthusiasm for learning – especially in a happy environment. Brixton LEYF is just fantastic!
