May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amMy older child now 5 went to Nelly’s Nursery – DSG from the age of 1 till school and now my younger daughter attends there. We feel very lucky to have found such a lovely nursery. Immediately as soon as you walk in, it just has that positive, good feel to it. The staff have always been lovely and kind to both my children. Any difficult periods the kids had in terms of settling into a new room were managed well till they were no longer an issue. If I had another child, I wouldn’t hesitate to send them there.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter has just started at Nelly’s Nursery – DSG and we have been so impressed so far with all of the staff and the environment. They have all worked really hard to help our baby settle, being as flexible and considerate as possible and really showing they care with lots of attention to detail. Our daughter’s key worker has been so kind and understanding – making sure we’re kept up to date and communicating how she is getting on. We are really pleased we picked Nelly’s Nursery – DSG.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amBoth my children have attended Nelly’s Nursery – DSG over the past four years. The staff are all lovely and I’m always very impressed how well the team know my children and care for them. My children have both very much enjoyed their time in this setting and we will be sorry to be saying goodbye at the end of summer.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amOur son has been settled in really well. Everyone has been really helpful and kind. The space itself is really nice with lots of outdoor space and light and lots of fun toys and active play. Pickup and drop off is quick and easy and the online journal is great.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amThis has been my son’s first nursery experience and it has been lovely to see him come out of his shell. His speech and communication have improved and he has made lovely friendships with his peers, moreover, he has bonded well with his room leader and key person. I have seen a big change in my son’s behaviourism’s since attending the nursery for example at home he was not eating much food, when he started Nelly’s Nursery – DSG he was encouraged by staff to eat and the daily routine of seeing the other children eat would help with this also.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter is extremely well looked after by the Nelly’s Nursery – DSG team and enjoys going in every day. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the nursery to any parent looking for excellent childcare in the area.

May 28, 2021 at 12:00 amMy niece is always happy here and seems to be learning more and more every day. In London, it is hard to find a nursery with such little outdoor space and this has lots. My niece is energetic and this suits her well. If I lived nearer this would be an option for my child.

June 7, 2021 at 12:00 amOur son has been at Nelly’s Nursery – DSG for some months and we have been happy with his care there. He seems very excited to see the staff when we drop him off and he is happy when we pick him up. Good communication with staff and management, even during COVID times when we can’t go inside. They are flexible with dietary preferences. I’m happy for them to spend as much time as possible outside (especially now that the weather is improving). They have a good outdoor space, which is a rare thing to find at most nurseries we looked at.

June 7, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been at Nelly’s Nursery – DSG since before she was 1 in the Baby room. She is now 2 and a half and in the main room. She has always been well cared for by the staff and is very happy there. The communication, especially in the main room, has been excellent and my daughter has had a lot of support with settling in. I’m very fond of the staff at Nelly’s and so pleased we chose DSG.

June 7, 2021 at 12:00 amThe staff are lovely, enthusiastic and consistent. My son’s confidence has grown at the nursery. The food is well thought out. There is a big outdoor area and garden which was a key factor for choosing the nursery.

June 7, 2021 at 12:00 amA wonderful nursery with a lovely environment right next to the fields and very caring staff. Our son has been at Nelly’s Nursery – DSG since he was a year old and really loves it. They provide us with regular updates throughout the day so we are happy that he’s happy and having fun whilst we are working. It’s clear he also learns a lot from being in such a supportive environment as the growth in his confidence and vocabulary has been wonderful to see.

September 23, 2021 at 12:00 amThe grounds at the nursery were what I really liked at first – knowing my baby would be tucked away from the business of London in this calm and green space. In addition, the staff have been fabulous with caring for cuddling and encouraging my baby.

March 2, 2023 at 12:00 amThe team in the main room are excellent, all are enthusiastic and allow my child opportunities to develop her own interests and encourage engagement with activities throughout the day. My daughter has thrived – she is confident and a curious learner and enjoys discussing her imaginative ideas with the adults in her room. Targets for progress/development are realistic but provide a challenge and communicated regularly with home.

March 21, 2023 at 12:00 amVery happy with the nursery, my son has been attending for over a month and the manager and the key person has been brilliant at helping him settle in. Very good communication and regular updates are provided to parents. The nursery also has a lovely outside space which my son loves. They do lots of painting and messy play as well as French classes once a week. Most importantly the staff have all been extremely patient with my son. Highly recommended.

July 15, 2023 at 12:00 amWe started at Nelly’s Nursery DSG in March, my now 2-year-old son had settling sessions for one month and then started full-time. I am grateful to the kind, patient and experienced staff at Nelly’s for putting our child’s needs first and taking good care of him. We know that he is first and foremost safe at Nelly’s and any issues they see will be raised in person and promptly allowing us to find a solution together. The grounds are safe and there is a lot of space for children to play and run around. Parents collect their children from their rooms, there is great communication with the staff and manager. Our son’s language and physical skills have developed very quickly due to all the activities they plan. Thank you!
