    Our kid is consistently eager to go to childcare centre and if we have any questions or information that needs clarification it is never too much trouble.
    It is nice that they take them on little walks and trips.

    They try to give different food to my daughter. My daughter has been attending for one year and I am proud she is discovering new skills every time and all educators are doing a great job and understanding all situations.

    My partner and I both work full time and the manager and the team are so supportive and accommodating to our needs alongside our daughters. It really is my little girl’s home from home which is so reassuring for us. She is absolutely thriving and loves her time spent there. Highly recommended! My daughter has been going to Monkey Puzzle Southend since she was 6 months – she is now 2 1/2!

    All of the ladies are so lovely and she has so much enjoyable. We adore all of the updates on the app! As a new mum going back to full-time work, you just want to be reassured your little one is in the best hands. Thank you. My little girl has only been going to this childcare centre for around a month now but she absolutely loves it!

    My daughter loves going, there are so many daily activities. The manager does such a exceptional job and is very careful to kids’s needs. We went from: ‘nooo I don’t want to go’, to, ‘when can we go to childcare centre Mummy.’
    Thank you for taking care of my treasure. We changed 3 nurseries until we found this one.

    I get regular reports on his development. The childcare centre team are welcoming and supportive. If messaged on the childcare centre app, they respond very quickly. My kid enjoys all the food at the setting. He especially enjoys the garden. I would definitely suggest this childcare centre to anyone. Management are nice and supportive and organised with keeping parents updated with relevant information. Also, they organised nice trips and events at the childcare centre to keep the kids cheerful and entertained. I’ve never really had any trouble with Monkey Puzzle Southend and overall 100% cheerful with the service! Since my kid has started at Monkey Puzzle, he has come leaps and bounds.

    Excellent team to kids ratio, great updates and wide range of foods served to kids. I’ll definitely suggest. My son loves the childcare centre and he has been able to develop his social skills thanks to the magnificent efforts by the team who engages him a lot.

    They do a remarkable job morning, noon, and night. Extremely conscientious, they adore the kids and the kids adore them back in return. My son is very cheerful there, consistently smiling and content. I am very pleased with this childcare centre and would highly suggest it to anyone thinking of enrolling their kid. The overwhelmingly outstanding feature of this nursey is the team.

    My kid loves this childcare centre. I wish this childcare centre was around when my eldest went to childcare centre as its lovely. I adore the app that they use to communicate with the parents. Lovely childcare centre, exceptional team and exceptional updates with team to parents.

    My baby goes to this childcare centre for 7 months now and when I pick him up he is consistently cheerful.
    My First language isn’t English, I speak with my kid in my language and when I speak English he does understand. One of the best choices that I made was to put him in the childcare centre, he can understand both languages and interact with other kids of his age.
    The team are really welcoming consistently keeps me up to date on his development and consistently trying new things with him.

    I’m very thankful for being so incredible and being so great to us.

    100% suggest to all parents that want the best for their kids. ???? I suggest this childcare centre to everyone who want their kids cheerful and still have the best education.

    Team are outstanding, welcoming and it has a close family sense. Consistently know what they have been doing all day or eating via the app. My son loves this place and his childcare centre educators. Highly recommended. Really excellent place.

    The team are lovely and seem to adore their jobs which makes a huge impact. They have been very accommodating to needs and welcome updates from parents/carers. My kids delight in all the different creative ways of exploring topics and discovering new skills that the team set up. The outside area may be on the small side, but they have resourced it well and my kids adore to spend time in the garden. I have been very cheerful with the care that my kids have received at Monkey Puzzle.

    Whenever I need an extra day The Manager or Assistant Manager are so supportive with this. Only thing I would like is that more photos were posted whether that being on social media or to myself. Before joining the childcare centre I was told I’d get once a day but when joining it was every month sometimes turning into every few months. Apart from this anyone who asks for a childcare centre I consistently send them to Monkey Puzzle Day Childcare centre Southend. I think all the girls are incredible my daughter loves it there and you can tell they adore her too.

    The team are consistently so reassuring, respectful, compassionate and cheerful! I have major anxiety being away from my daughter and who looks after her so her going to childcare centre was a big thing for me. I am so glad I picked this childcare centre I can not fault the team at all. My daughter is well looked after by them and that’s all I could ever ask for. The day that my daughter has to leave Monkey Puzzle I will actually be quite sad about it! I 100% suggest. I am very cheerful with Monkey Puzzle Day Childcare centre.

    I couldn’t be happier with this childcare centre. My son loves going and the manager is absolutely remarkable. I would suggest Monkey Puzzle Day Childcare centre Southend to anyone! My son is consistently cheerful and tells me how much enjoyable he has every single day. The most fantastic childcare centre.

    The manager there has never not tried to accommodate our requests.
    My son loves his primary carers and enjoys his time at childcare centre. I have seen such tremendous growth in his physical and verbal development during his time at childcare centre and I am so blessed to be able to send him to Monkey Puzzle Southend. The team at Monkey Puzzle Southend, have consistently gone above and beyond for my son and in turn my family.

    This shows a great bond between the childcare centre and the kid. We receive great updates daily, which are supportive and informative to monitor eating and sleep patterns. She has a great appetite and the food provided is varied.
    When any of the family pick her up she is consistently cheerful, which tells me she has enjoyed her day. My Granddaughter consistently has a smile on her face when greeted at the door in the mornings.

    She went from being really anxious and worried to absolutely loving it in a very short space of time. All the team have been incredible and the app is a excellent feature. I can definitely tell she has picked up some more skills since being there. My daughter has been attending for a couple of months now.

    My daughter enjoys going there and playing, they have a garden and kids are prepared for school discovering letters, singing and eating healthy. I am cheerful with the team and the activities the kids are involved in.
