August 18, 2022 at 12:00 amWe felt so welcome by all the staff as soon as we walked in, everybody was so friendly in greeting us and our daughter. The manager gave my wife a thorough tour and was able to accommodate our child’s needs. Considering our daughter is very attached to us she settled so quickly with hardly any tears and will now wave goodbye at drop-off times which is absolutely amazing! Thank you to the team at Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school!

August 30, 2022 at 12:00 amA brilliant nursery! The outdoor space is just perfect for kids who want to be kids and enjoy their time at nursery. I have a 2-year-old and a 4-year-old, both boys who absolutely love the nursery and the staff. Most days I can’t drag my kids away from the nursery and they are excited to go there in the morning. The staff are wonderful and friendly and are able to communicate and relate to the children on their level. My 4-year-old’s communication skills have vastly improved due to the time and effort the staff have put in and their potty training was exceptional, considering my child has difficulty communicating. Since the new management team has taken over I have observed a big difference in the staff morale and the aesthetics of the nursery. It’s comforting that their staff retention is so high. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a fun, stimulating and friendly place to send their child! I am looking forward to sending my third child there.

August 30, 2022 at 12:00 amFrom the moment we wandered around we fell in love with this nursery. Set in a surrounding forest we are regularly greeted by squirrels, muntjacs and a variety of birds with amazing greenery all around us.
Our little girl loves it here and is extremely well looked after and loved by the staff who are easy to relate to and very welcoming to both students and parents. We are regularly updated about her progress and milestones (and behaviour!)
Since the introduction of its new manager, the nursery has gone from strength to strength with lots of outdoor play, learning activities and even baby yoga!

September 22, 2022 at 12:00 amSince my son started attending in March of this year we have seen such amazing growth in him. The staff are amazing and have supported my son so well. Initially a very clingy baby, he has grown to love the staff there and has such a great time. The kids spend so much time outdoors and have such a variation in their play that I know my little one will continue to flourish there.
As time goes on, we see such great improvements in the nursery and I have no doubt that they will continue growing from strength to strength.

March 28, 2023 at 12:00 amWonderful nursery with kind and helpful staff. Our son has thrived within this setting, and we absolutely love that he spends so much time outside. The nursery is surrounded by big gardens and forest, and our little boy is able to come home and tell us all about the exciting things he has learnt with his friends. The staff are communicative and fun and are always happy to go above and beyond. Highly recommend!

March 28, 2023 at 12:00 amMy child started nursery here in October 2022 and we have nothing but praise for the staff. I know he is well cared for and I am updated daily about the things I want to know (sleep times/nappies/food!). The staff are all so friendly and caring. We can’t thank them enough for everything they do. I go to work knowing my boy is safe and happy. Top nursery in my eyes!

March 28, 2023 at 12:00 amWe are really happy with this nursery. The management are very visible and always available to answer questions, provide updates on the nursery and generally interact with parents. All staff are really enthusiastic about the children and it is clear they enjoy their jobs. As a parent I am always greeted with a smile and a warm welcome. My daughter enjoys attending the nursery and often asks to go in on the weekend and days she doesn’t attend. The nursery have supported our daughter with life skills, speech development and general good behaviour. We are very happy with this nursery.

March 28, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been going to the nursery for the past 2 years and she absolutely loves it. It has 3 outdoor playgrounds, and in the warmer months, they play all day outside. They do many interesting activities like growing caterpillars and then releasing the butterflies back into nature, they did forest school, kids yoga and they also have their Guinea pigs. They do a lot of improvements in the nursery and invest constantly in it. I would not hesitate for my next child to go there as well.

April 4, 2023 at 12:00 amMy son has been attending Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school for the last five months (in babies) and he absolutely loves it now. As soon as we came for the open day we knew we had to send him here. The outside spaces set in the forest are so much nicer than some other nearby nurseries and the staff are all so lovely and have been working there for a long time and so it feels like a big family. I receive good updates from the staff on his day there when I collect him and now get lovely photos and updates throughout the day via their new app.

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amInitially felt very nervous applying for a nursery with my baby only being 11 months. We were welcomed to an open day where we got to look around one-on-one and meet the staff members, see the baby room and our baby came along as well. This put us at ease.
The settling-in period was very impressive with lots of opportunities for our baby to get used to being dropped off. It’s really not been long and now our baby is all smiles at drop-off and pick-up.
The staff are incredibly warm and personable. They clearly love what they do and it shows. The whole experience of using this nursery has taken away any anxiety I had about going back to work. Our baby has come along so much, they are more inquisitive, play with toys on their own and are very confident with new people and other babies/children.
Would highly recommend.

April 5, 2023 at 12:00 amBoth of my children go to Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school and absolutely love it. They have both come on so much and the staff take care of them as if they are their own. I love all of the updates on the new app as well. Would 100% recommend the nursery.

April 7, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been attending Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school for four months now and she loves it! The staff are very kind and my daughter has a brilliant bond with her keyworker. The food is nutritious and the outside space is amazing. So pleased we managed to book a space here.

April 10, 2023 at 12:00 amOur son has been at this nursery for three weeks now and after much deliberating about which nursery to send him to, I can honestly say we made the right decision in sending him to Chingford Forest Day Nursery and Pre-school. From day one, the staff have been and are friendly and attentive. My son comes home every day happy and smiling after a day at nursery which fills me with confidence that he is receiving the best possible care. The daily updates via the app from the nursery are a big help and aid with direct communication with the nursery.

May 19, 2023 at 12:00 amSo pleased to have found this nursery. Cannot fault the staff in how they have lovingly supported and nurtured my boy through his settling in which had been a bit overwhelming for him. Such amazing patience and reassurance from a member of staff in the baby room, she has made this process a lot easier and always has time to give a detailed debrief on pick-up. Really appreciate it, thanks again.

June 28, 2023 at 12:00 amI couldn’t be happier with Chingford Forest Day Nursery. From the moment we walked through the door, the warm and nurturing environment made us feel right at home. The staff are incredibly attentive and friendly and I have complete peace of mind knowing my child is in excellent hands. I highly recommend this wonderful nursery to anybody that is considering.

July 10, 2023 at 12:00 amThis nursery has been amazing from the moment I called. My son has extra needs and nothing phased the team at the nursery. He’s developing so well there and they all go above and beyond to help anything he needs. I cannot fault them on any front. They care for all the children like they are their own and I am so grateful to be able to go to work fully confident he’s being looked after so well with no problems. Thanks to the amazing team.

July 14, 2023 at 12:00 amSuch a lovely nursery. Both of my girls love it there and love all of the staff. Great outdoor space, surrounded by nature.
Always doing creative, fun activities but also teach kids how to tidy up and be polite.

July 14, 2023 at 12:00 amFantastic nursery with exceptional staff. Very informative, always kept in the loop at drop off/pick up or via the app. I have never had any complaints, my eldest has recently left for preschool but my youngest has been going since April.

July 14, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter loves this nursery. The staff are so kind and supportive and always find fun, creative, new activities and ideas.

July 17, 2023 at 12:00 amAbsolutely love this nursery, my son went here from 14 months and he is nearly 10, so when I had my daughter I knew I wanted her to have the same experience that he had, even some of the staff were the same which says a lot. We love the outside space and the range of activities, we would 100% recommend the nursery.
