    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 childcare centre itself had such a welcoming and expert atmosphere (plus we know that the kids are regularly taken out and visit the recreational facilities). The team are incredible, so welcoming and really communicative about everything, from our daughter’s activities that day to any issues that have arisen. Our daughter has developed a excellent deal since starting at the childcare centre and the team 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 enjoyable too. We are really cheerful with the childcare centre and so glad we found somewhere we like so much. Our daughter, who is now 14 months old, started at Brixton Childcare centre at the beginning of this year.

    I knew it was the right place for my daughter when I went to look around it as everyone was so open and welcoming. She had to settle in pre-lockdown and then recently again, post-lockdown and both times the team have helped the transition with warmth, adore and great humour. I believe this childcare centre is a very nurturing place and the team in the baby room are so lovely and teach her so much. Her physical development and language are coming on very nicely and it’s incredible to me every time she does something at home that we haven’t taught her. The outside space might be small but they get to use the leisure centre facilities and also take them out a lot to parks and the market. I adore this place and I cannot suggest it more highly. This childcare centre is incredible.

    Our kids have been there since 2015, and we have been extremely cheerful. 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 childcare centre can use the facilities in the leisure centre – the huge soft playtime, the fitness studio and (for the oldest kids) 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 team turnover – or at least the great ones stick around! The long-serving members of team are just exceptional. Such a loving setting, we trust them completely. Brixton LEYF is the most fantastic childcare centre.

    My kid has been attending for just over a year and is extremely cheerful. He has made fantastic development and adores his educators and friends. The team are inviting and supportive and I sense that we are in partnership with them in providing the best for my kid. We are all so cheerful to be part of the Brixton Childcare centre family. I cannot suggest Brixton Childcare centre highly enough.

    I adore the fact that the kids get to use the facilities of the leisure centre too, it’s a real bonus of the childcare centre being located there. The team are excellent, they all really care about the kids.

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

    The team are exceptional and put so much effort into providing interesting, enjoyable and challenging activities for the kids. They have their own chef to prepare meals, and they can use the facilities in the leisure centre, like soft playtime, which is excellent! Brixton Nubrsey is a really inviting and welcoming childcare centre.

    The Brixton team are incredibly inviting, careful, sensitive and thoughtful and I know that he feels secure 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 suggest this childcare centre highly enough. My son has attended Brixton Leyf Childcare centre since he was one and now, two years later, he still runs into childcare centre with glee every day without fail.

    They’ve spent over 2-years there, and we couldn’t be happier with the educators, team and management.
    They’ve been there for my daughters whenever they needed them. Flexible with us when required.
    The outdoor space isn’t huge, but they have access to the swimming pool, the soft playtime a gym studio and often (pre covid) go to the local markets.
    A really diverse team and childcare centre that reflects Brixton perfectly!
    Thanks a lot (again)! My daughters just left Brixton Childcare centre to go to school.

    He was looked after by an incredible, diverse and talented team and became part of a fantastic family. His rate of discovering and development increased massively through the wide range of enjoyable discovering activities and playtime, tailored to his needs and discovering style.
    It makes all the difference when people and particularly educators and carers genuinely adore what they are doing, what they are great at, and what gives them purpose. We truly couldn’t have wished for more. It was perfect.
    Eternally grateful to Brixton team and so many cheerful memories, cultivated (great!) behaviours, traditions, high fives, Italian-Spanish fish names (“Pirrania!”) and muscle demonstrations… I know that our son (+mum & dad) will treasure consistently. Lost for words to describe how incredibly lucky we sense that our son spent over three very cheerful and formative years at LEYF Brixton, after a brief false start at another popular childcare centre that didn’t sense 100% right.

    She consistently looks cheerful when I see her and the team are very attentive and welcoming. She is eating a great portion of (mashed) solid food at childcare centre, as I’m sure it tastes delicious (the daily menu consistently looks excellent). I sense absolutely reassured in leaving my daughter at this childcare centre five days a week. Our 6-month-old daughter has only been at Brixton Community Childcare centre for over a week, but so far I have been impressed by how quickly she has settled in.

    Our son now 8 years old has excellent fond memories of childcare centre and the excellent bonds he made with his educators 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 remarkable cheerful, discovering and playing journey at Brixton LEYF childcare centre and made excellent 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 educators, including managers and chefs, over the years. As new parents, we took the chance and gut feeling with Brixton LEYF childcare centre and we are ever so grateful and satisfied with our kids’s well-being and enthusiasm for discovering – especially in a cheerful setting. Brixton LEYF is just remarkable! Our two kids attended Brixton LEYF Childcare centre at the early ages of 1 year old and right up to graduation day, before they headed off to primary school.

    We have seen so much development in him over the years and he is consistently cheerful every time we attend family events. As extended family members we are consistently felt welcomed and involved. All the team are fantastic and we are just pleased he is in a cheerful setting. We are very cheerful that our Grandchild goes to Brixton Community Childcare centre.

    Our son is still in its pre-school group, whilst our daughter has left the childcare centre two years ago to start the primary school.
    The core team members are really dedicated and haven’t changed over the years. I sense that they have (and are still) providing a nurturing setting where kids like to go and where they establish strong friendship bonds between themselves. Two years on, and some of our daughter’s closest friends are the ones that she met in the childcare centre. Both of our kids have been attending Brixton LEYF childcare centre.

    She toddles in waving at all her friends and smiling happily. She loves all the exceptional educators, who are the most positive and welcoming people I’ve ever met. They genuinely adore each kid 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 incredible knowing that our daughter is so cheerful 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 educators for being so fantastic with her. Our daughter (now 18-months) loves it here!

    Both of them absolutely adore the team, and as parents, we cannot fault the childcare provision! I would absolutely suggest this childcare centre to anyone considering it. My daughter has attended this childcare centre for the last 2 and a half years, and my son for almost 2 years.

    Loved seeing this team at work and would highly suggest it to parents who are seeking a excellent place to have their kids grow, learn and be nourished in a very positive and inviting space! Incredible team that truly cares about each kid and puts adore and effort into looking after them.

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

    They created a very personal, real bond with our kid and us for that matter. Consistently going out of their way to make sure the kids are looked after and they clearly appreciate it as much as we parents do. Remarkable, lovely team!

    A fantastic childcare centre where kids can develop and learn in a secure, attentive and enjoyable setting.
    I cannot speak higher of the place. The Manager and room leaders absolutely top-notch! Our daughter had the best journey here.
