September 15, 2024 at 5:55 pmMy son started in September after attending a childminder for the first 3 years of his life. The growth and development he has made have been incredible. He suffers from speech issues and that has come on leaps and bounds, he is now more sociable and even our friends have commented on his self‑assurance. As an early years practitioner myself I think Explorers are fantastic at nurturing and developing young minds. I shall miss it when my son goes to school in September. I cannot speak more highly of Explorers if I tried.

September 22, 2024 at 10:46 pmMy daughter has been going to this childcare centre for two years and has learned so much, she’s consistently coming home telling me how much enjoyable she had and the activities they did for the day. She only has afternoon tea due to her starting in the afternoon but loves the food they provide, the childcare centre is very spotless and the team consistently keep you updated when needed. The childcare centre has loads of excellent toys discovering and sensory for all types of kids and a nice outdoor space for the kids to playtime. Would definitely suggest it to other mothers as my daughter has come so far since starting the childcare centre. Excellent childcare centre, with lovely team.

December 10, 2024 at 8:57 amI sense that they genuinely care about my son, his development and his well being and this is through regular updates and updates about his day, directly or through the childcare centre app. The team respect his personality, his wishes and his individual needs, directing and engaging him in the most suitable activities for him, listening to my view, requests or concerns. Regarding the academic education, they deliver an EYFS rich and balanced curriculum in an impeccable way: a very well organised and resourced setting, an array of hands-on activities and events organised for the kids, highly expert team. My son loves his childcare centre and he very often talks proudly of his childcare centre and very fondly of all his educators. It’s been just over a year since our son started attending this childcare centre and I couldn’t be happier with the care and education he receives.

January 10, 2025 at 6:26 pmMy kid has been attending Explorers from a young age owing to me returning to work from maternity leave, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the professionalism, warmth and care provided to my son.
I have watched him development from crawling to confidently walking during his time so far at Explorers, and the team have instilled self‑assurance in him through their encouragement and his interactions with other kids.
I receive regular updates on his development and day-to-day activities through the Famly app, which is ideal as a busy working mum as I can check how he has been during the day very easily.
I would highly suggest this childcare centre to anyone looking to enrol their kid.

January 12, 2025 at 4:07 pmI cannot suggest them enough. I adore how committed they are to the development and welfare of all the kids there. I adore how they provide extra curricular activities at no extra cost. They treat my kids as their own and treat them with adore and respect. I’ve seen two of my kids flourish and grow while there and I’m confident my baby will too. I’m very cheerful with Explorers Collier Row.

January 26, 2025 at 2:25 amThey have both had very positive experiences, both settled very quickly and their development has been outstanding in all areas. I cannot speak highly enough of all the team, consistently supportive, expert and welcoming. You can see that the team really care for each kid, which puts us parents at ease. The Family App is also very useful, it’s excellent to be kept updated. I’m so gratetful to have such an incredible local childcare centre! Both my girls have attended Explorers over the last 3 years.

January 26, 2025 at 9:17 pmThey have done all they can for my daughter with her additional needs and also supported my husband and me. Honestly loveliest childcare centre and Im so sad for when my daughter starts school and can’t come anymore. I adore Explorers Collier Row.

February 11, 2025 at 2:52 pmI felt she really needed more social interaction with other kids and to get used to being looked after by other adults other than myself. She is well loved and looked after, enjoys the food, activities and outdoor space. I can go to work and not have any worries, I can check on the app to see what she’s been up to and what food she has eaten, also nappy changes. Overall I am extremely cheerful and would not hesitate to suggest it. It has been almost a year since my daughter joined Explorers Collier Row, I am so glad I sent her.

March 18, 2025 at 7:49 amAfter viewing lots of nurseries in the local area, I settled on Explorers due to an in-depth and well‑informed walk around with one of the team members. She was instantly welcoming and approachable and put any worries I had at ease. My daughter has been attending a few months now, she is just over a year old, and I have seen such a difference in her. Although anxious initially, Explorers went above and beyond to make sure she settled in and felt at ease etc. They really care about the kids and this is seen through both their relationships with them and the day to day discovering (roleplay, arts, outside discovering and etc.). Updates and use of the app is outstanding. Team are expert, approachable and it really feels like a family and a community. The setting itself is spotless, as well as inviting and engaging for kids of all ages. Highly suggest. I’ve had such an incredible and positive journey with Explorers Collier Row and sense so grateful and lucky to have chosen them as the childcare centre for my daughter.

March 28, 2025 at 4:03 amOur kid clearly enjoys attending the setting and is provided with age-appropriate stimulation. The team keep us updated about any incidents, and the way they respond keeps us confident that our kid is secure. The childcare centre is outstanding value for money compared to other settings we had gone to see. We sense our kid instantly connected with them when we went to view the childcare centre. A number of the educators have just been so incredible with our kid, and we are so grateful to have such fantastic people looking after him. We adore the attention and care team show towards our kid and how they respond to our concerns.

April 1, 2025 at 6:01 amMy little girl, who is nearly two, is coming on leaps and bounds and the team at Collier Row have really helped her. She loves going into childcare centre and to me that proves everything. Excellent team and excellent assistance. I couldn’t rate Explorers Collier Row enough.

April 4, 2025 at 8:34 pmPutting her into childcare centre at such a young age was very daunting but the team made me sense at ease. After just one day my daughter had settled in, was eating, drinking and sleeping as she usually would at home and was extremely cheerful. Ever since she has consistently had the best time at childcare centre and is consistently cheerful there. The team are incredible with the kids and extremely attentive. Nothing is too much trouble for them and I am kept updated on everything throughout the day. There is a lovely family sense in the childcare centre where all kids are able to interact and join in with activities. Kids of all ages are able to playtime with each other and the kids form bonds with all of the team. This has really helped my daughter come on leaps and bounds with her speech at an early age. I have no concerns whilst my daughter is in the care of Explorers Collier Row, and would suggest to anyone in the local area. My daughter has been attending since 9 months of age.

April 21, 2025 at 9:07 pmThe team were welcoming, accommodating and flexible with her settling period. They got to know her likes and dislikes quickly, supporting her ease of settling. It was evident that she was comfortable with the team and other kids in a relatively short space of time. We were unsure at first about the size of the childcare centre and worried that our daughter would sense like she didn’t have enough space. However, the team use the space so cleverly, maximising both the indoor and outdoor space. Walks out in the community are also a big selling point, allowing the kids more opportunities to learn in the real world as well as a change of scenery. The smaller capacity setting has also been positive, resulting in our daughter and us building excellent relationships with all the team and giving her the opportunity to interact with kids of different ages helping her updates, independence and empathy. This was our daughter’s 2nd childcare centre and she was nervous about starting in a new place.

May 8, 2025 at 9:56 pmShe loves everyone who works there and has created some special bonds. I’ve never experienced any issues and my kid is just about to turn three. The educators really make the effort to make you sense comfortable and it seems that they really do care about all the kids in the setting. My kid has been here since she was ten/eleven months old.

May 11, 2025 at 4:55 amThe management and all the team go above and beyond which gives me the self‑assurance to leave my kid in their care on a daily basis which in turn enables me to go off to work knowing that my kid is secure, stimulated and educated whilst having enjoyable. I have got nothing but praise for Explorers Childcare centre Collier Row.

May 12, 2025 at 9:24 pmTeam on door are really attentive, communicative and well‑informed and immediately know your kid’s needs and their name, likes / dislikes etc. When you walk in you get such a positive and calming sense from the discovering setting and the childcare centre itself is large, bright, spotless and spacious with a lovely outdoor playtime area. Team go above and beyond and the app is consistently updated daily with pictures and details of your kid’s day, mealtimes etc. Kids are exposed to lots of enjoyable discovering activities from a young age and after a few months my kid has come home discovering a range of different new skills that have been supported and learnt at the childcare centre. I sense 100% secure leaving my kid at the childcare centre and she comes out with the biggest smile on her face. Team really make this a excellent childcare centre and we are lucky to have such a exceptional Childcare centre in Collier Row. Remarkable childcare centre, kid settled in really well with assistance from all team.

May 15, 2025 at 8:44 amI could not rate them highly enough. It has a lovely family sense, whilst still having plenty of space for the kids to have enjoyable. The adore and care shown to my kids and myself has been incredible. Every childcare centre teacher and manager shows genuine adore for my kids, which means so much to know they are being well cared for. The baby/toddler room is larger than any I’ve known at other nurseries and it is light and airy. The preschool side has lots of different areas to keep them occupied and they are consistently being creative with making cakes, crafts and even doing science experiments. They also get daily time outside on the different bikes, slides and climbing frames. The app I have found very useful and has been extremely reassuring to be able to communicate effectively throughout the day. I know when they have slept, what they have eaten and get sent photos of them there. Overall, I have been very impressed with this childcare centre! I have a two year old and a six month old in Little Explorers.

June 1, 2025 at 3:04 amI am very grateful for everything the assistance they provided for my kid and me as a parent. All team are very welcoming, they make me as a mother sense that my kid is in a secure setting, providing incredible updates with me about my kid when he is in their care.

June 13, 2025 at 7:18 pmDue to covid, we couldn’t visit during childcare centre hours so the manager and owner showed us around on a Saturday morning, which we really appreciated. Even though we could not see the kids and team interaction, we did see the activities set up for the coming week, work, the outdoor area, and resources. As our daughter was only 9 months when she joined, we were very anxious about leaving her but all the team are so attentive and welcoming, we didn’t need to worry at all. Every single member of team works their socks off to ensure that the kids are cheerful, cared for, and engaged in their discovering. They are consistently doing creative and relevant activities and we are kept up to date with everything via the app. We are so glad that we have found a childcare centre close to us that we sense 100% comfortable leaving our baby with. As soon as we went for a visit to the childcare centre, we knew that it was the place for our daughter to be.
