    I consider Monkey Puzzle in Stoke Newington a very good nursery. My son is very happy there (doesn’t want to go home!). The staff are very friendly and helpful and the manager is always there to answer any questions or concerns should there be any. I tell by my child that he’s learned a lot during his stay there. I really like it.

    We’re very happy with Monkey Puzzle Stoke Newington. Our daughter seems to continually thrive there with the support of a lovely team of people. They do lots of activities with the children and take them for many outings too. The food menu is very vast and nutritious which is also very important to us. I’d highly recommend this nursery to other local parents.

    Our son absolutely adores his nursery and his key person in baby room. The staff are incredibly caring, the atmosphere in the nursery is always very happy and everybody is always smiling. We as parents, highly recommend Monkey Puzzle, Newington, as we know our son is left in very capable hands.

    Everyone at Monkey Puzzle is kind, fun, playful and extremely loving towards the kids. Our son has always been looked after with great care. Our parenting choices have always been respected and supported, in one word, the staff creates a warm environment for the families.
    On every level, we can only (very enthusiastically) recommend this nursery!

    Both my children have attended Monkey Puzzle, Stoke Newington and my youngest is still there. My eldest has recently started school and although he loves it, he constantly tells me how much he misses nursery. I think that is a testament to how much the kids love it there. As well as the usual pre-school education, he was taught Spanish, anatomy, our senses, abilities and disabilities, diversity and inclusion. They have sports sessions, forest school and other great activities to get them learning. It has stood him in good stead for reception, particularly as he is the youngest in his class. My youngest (2 years old) loves nursery, she loves the excitement of being with her peers and she loves the activities – she is constantly kept occupied and busy and is very fond of her teachers, greeting them excitedly each morning. The staff are warm, friendly and always available. I appreciate greatly their flexibility and will do their best to accommodate your needs and your child’s. Highly recommend.

    It makes us so happy to see how much our daughter loves going to Monkey Puzzle N16. The staff (all of them) are so caring and are such a lovely mix of individual people with different backgrounds and cultures. The venue is bright and playful and the children can flow in and out of the large outdoor terrace where they can ride bikes and run around. They encourage messy and wet play and do thoughtful daily activities which are fun and educational. We visited a lot of nurseries but this was by far our favourite. It just felt right from day 1. The manager is very friendly and dedicated. She helped us to settle in and was very accommodating when we needed extra days. She has great energy and always makes everyone feel well looked after. Her own son attends and all the children love her and smile when she greets them in the morning. One of its advantages is it’s one of the smaller nurseries (especially in 2020) and has a very good child to supervisor ratio.

    Our child has attended the nursery for 18 months and we are extremely happy that he is there. The space is great with outdoor space directly accessed from both the baby and toddler rooms away from the traffic. It is very well run and all the staff are very caring and attentive. We always feel our child’s wellbeing and development is a priority and the management even show a sensible and empathetic approach to looking out for the parents needs too. We love this nursery and can only say good things about it.

    I have had an amazing experience with this nursery from the beginning. Very warm and friendly atmosphere, staff are lovely and professional. Happy to accommodate any specific requirements you may have for your child. Good healthy menu for the children and a good range of activities throughout the day. Would definitely recommend this nursery.

    This is an absolutely fantastic nursery, we’ve been very happy with it – great staff and lovely kids. Offers great facilities with excellently designed large and clean spaces and a large outdoor area. Impressed with the food menu. I would highly recommend to other parents in the area.

    My son loves it here. The staff are fantastic – providing an excellent balance of warmth and professionalism. Having looked at about ten nurseries, this is no small feat. It was evident from our initial visit, so much so that we didn’t hesitate to book him in. Highly recommend!

    There is good communication between home and nursery (both written and verbal).
    I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.
    Thank you for all you do!

    My son loves the Monkey Puzzle, and he can’t wait to get back when we are away! He has learnt so much and made friends with other children and the nursery staff. The management are welcoming and flexible, all the staff are super-patient and loving towards the kids. I would definitely recommend it to anyone in the area!

    Fantastic experience with Monkey Puzzle Stoke Newington. Staff have been brilliant, so caring and genuine. Chef is top notch, she does a great job. Management are super. Very responsive and involved with the running of the room. Our child is in baby room. The space is lovely. They go outside on the balcony a lot and go out to the park regularly. Lots of lovely activities like yoga and language classes. Highly recommend.

    Monkey Puzzle is a great nursery with lovely staff and great activities for the children. Whilst the baby room is a little tired, the food is great, there is plenty to do and my daughter loves it. The team are really flexible and happy to help however they can. We love getting the daily photos too, it’s a great way for the family to keep up with all the antics!

    Our daughter has been attending the baby room at Monkey Puzzle Stoke Newington for a few months now and we are incredibly impressed with the level of care provided by all the staff members, management team and especially the owner who really understands the needs of working parents, giving us peace of mind knowing our baby is being wonderfully looked after while we are at work. Highly recommend it!

    We love Monkey Puzzle with all our hearts. The manager and her team are phenomenal, their patience, care and positivity are wonderful, and their organisation and consistency are impressive. Our two boys have benefited greatly from Monkey Puzzle Stoke Newington and love/loved it. Our third has just started, and we feel extremely fortunate to have found MP.

    I have two kids at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stoke Newington and have been super happy with the care so far. They do lots of messy play and outdoor activities with them daily. Both kids really enjoy being there and the staff are brilliant.

    Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stoke Newington is the most wonderful nursery. My daughter has been going since she was 12 months (she is 15 months now) and she loves going. The care she receives is impeccable and I trust the staff 100%. She does fun, educational activities all day and the food is also amazing. I really couldn’t be happier with this nursery and I would recommend it to anyone.

    Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stoke Newington is a lovely nursery. My son started more than two years ago. He is currently in preschool and is very happy there, looking forward to seeing his friends as well as the members of the staff every morning.
    The team at Monkey Puzzle Stoke Newington is what stands out the most. They are taking extra care of the kids, taking into consideration their personal characteristics. The kids learn a lot in the nursery – not only the usual stuff but also how to behave to each other in a nice way. The manager is capable of solving literally every problem and is very easy to communicate with.
    The only thing that could be a tad better is the activities – the bigger kids could have some regular musical activity or forest school etc. (there is just one PE type of activity at the moment). A proper garden would be nice too, however, the kids go to the local parks often so it isn’t a big issue.

    Our daughter has been at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Stoke Newington for almost a year now and is very happy there. The staff are really good with her and clearly care for her. They do lots of fun activities and outside trips, plus send lots of good updates via the app. Having visited a few other nurseries, this one always felt like the one where the kids were the happiest. Highly recommended.
