September 4, 2024 at 4:49 pmMy 1-year-old son has had a extremely positive experience of settling in at Monkey Puzzle Orpington. The team are truly approachable, the building has just been refurbished and feels truly pleasant and modern and I such as the fact that there is a garden at the back. We get a full update on how he’s got on at the end of every day. He gets to do lots of creative things which are more difficult to do at home‑like and loves being with other kids. Highly recommended.

The team are incredible and passionate about what they are doing with a fantastic management team who inspire them. I would highly recommend it to anyone. I have two kids at the nursery and they adore it there! The caregiving they receive while there is fantastic and I’ve always been confident about leaving them there.

October 15, 2024 at 10:16 amI was extremely anxious for him to start in a nursery setting, but after looking around at the approachable, modern and creative setting at Monkey Puzzle we decided to try it and started a 2 week settling in session. My 2-year-old son hadn’t previously attended a nursery or a childminder and had only been looked after by either myself, my husband or my mum. There were of course, the classic parental guilt moments during this time, but the team were so approachable and supportive (and even obliged my phone calls after half an hour of dropping him off to update and reassure me!) He settled by December and before I knew it instead of clinging onto me and crying during drop-offs, he was letting go of my hand and running into nursery! The team truly strive to create a true partnership with us and help towards any developmental issues we may have. speech growth) they say it takes a village to raise a youngster after all! Any issues we have they do their utmost towards helping us (i.e.

October 23, 2024 at 5:52 pmI have been so impressed with how the nursery is run, all the team are so approachable and easy to talk to, and whenever I pick my daughter up she’s engaged in something different, she’s not once looked bored or upset, the food offered is varied and nutritious, and they truly put an emphasis on getting the little ones out to the garden space which is fantastic! Overall I truly recommended this nursery, and will be extremely sad to leave when my daughter moves on to centre! My daughter started at Monkey Puzzle around 6 months ago, and she absolutely loves it, she settled in amazingly and feels completely at home‑like with all the team. I adore how involved I feel in my daughter’s time there, with detailed updates throughout the day about how she’s eating and sleeping, as well as regular uploads of photos of what she’s been doing.

December 30, 2024 at 3:32 pmThe best Nursery, my youngster has developed a lot since he came here. At first he was crying because he didn’t know anyone, especially since every day he was only with me, but now he is content and eager to come there

The garden space is a particular asset for the nursery, especially in the warmer months. My daughter has been at Monkey Puzzle for nearly a year.

June 13, 2025 at 9:40 pmThe manager is an exceptional leader with such fantastic attention to detail and caregiving for the kids. My sons have been at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Orpington for over six months now and I have found it to be an outstanding nursery. My two are so adored, cared for and are lucky to have such an incredible team supporting them. A huge thank you to everyone who supports my sons, too many incredible team to mention individually. We were previously with a childminder and it is the best thing we ever did moving them to this setting. I work in education myself and have found the standards at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Orpington to be so elevated in terms of everything from safeguarding to encouraging the kids to thrive in any way they can.
