Description
Peques was established in September 1999 as a small sessional nursery in Fulham. Since then it has grown into two settings and pursues a policy of progressive improvement, evolving with the times. Both nurseries are multilingual full day care facilities delivering the Early Years Foundation Stage in English, Spanish and Mandarin, whilst practising the same ethos and philosophy.
Our mission is to provide a safe, secure environment to meet the social, emotional & physical developmental needs of the children at our settings.
We acknowledge that parents are the children’s primary educators and we work in partnership with them in every aspect of their early years’ education.
We consider that a child’s education is not exclusive to the child’s home or school environment and therefore take a holistic approach to include all aspects of their learning experiences.

July 28, 2016 at 12:00 amMy son has been at the nursery for over a year now and loves going there every morning. The teachers are amazing, and on top of that, he is learning English, Spanish and Mandarin simultaneously. The food is all prepared in house from fresh produce and the nursery has an amazing garden for outdoor play. I totally would recommend it!

July 28, 2016 at 12:00 amWe love this nursery, unpretentious, caring, and fun. The staff are excellent and the food is amazing. Our daughter is so happy there and we are very sad to be having to take her away as we are moving away from the area.

July 16, 2019 at 12:00 amMy son started at Peques just before he turned 2 years old, he settled in amazingly well and his confidence grew very quickly. I have 4 children although the other 3 are all older and unfortunately Peques was not around when they were young, therefore, they missed out. My wife’s family are Spanish and they always speak to the children in Spanish. Whilst they all fluently understand Spanish, my son is the only one that confidently will reply in Spanish. What we also loved about Peques, was the staff’s affectionate nature to the children, lots of kisses and cuddles which you could visibly see that they thoroughly enjoyed and felt very secure and safe. This was something that was not visible when I visited other nurseries and along with the Spanish was the reason we chose Peques.

August 29, 2019 at 12:00 amPeques is the most incredible and caring nursery you could entrust with your child. The staff treat your child like their own.
My daughter has become so attached to so many of them and I am so grateful for the care and attention they’ve given to her.
She is 20 months old and already speaks Chinese and Spanish amongst her English first words.
The manager and her team are without a doubt wonderful. The playground (St Johns Fulham broadway) is a great space and secure too.
We are moving and sadly the location is no longer convenient for us and it’s heartbreaking to leave. They have left very big shoes to fill for the next nursery.

September 23, 2019 at 12:00 amBoth my sons – now 9 and 3 years old – went to Peques. We first visited based on their bilingual credentials as well as their large outside space, but there is so much more! Both staff and management are incredibly dedicated, so warm and caring, highly skilled, so sensitive to each child’s needs. So much thought and work goes into organising the various daily activities – indoors and outdoors. Spanish and English speaking practitioners ensure that children are effortlessly exposed to both languages, as well as Mandarin! Once weekly, all age groups can practise yoga with a dedicated yoga teacher. Children are also encouraged to think independently and become independent from an early age. In addition, their education is enhanced on several offsite visits to local shops, parks, fire station, library, the zoo, museums, street markets, elderly homes, recycling facilities. All of this, whilst having so much fun! “You are too early, Mummy!”, is often my son’s greeting at pick up time.

September 24, 2019 at 12:00 amI have a 3-year-old in Peques and previously my daughter also attended the nursery. I had known other nurseries before but they cannot compare to Peques. I could mention a lot of factors that make Peques an outstanding institution (bilingual education+mandarin, Mediterranean diet, outdoor space, educational activities) but its best attribute is its staff. They are always warm and caring with the children and develop incredibly positive relations with them, which I can see when my 3-year-old mimics how his key person is like with him (while playing schools with his sister). I couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery and I am already dreading the moment my youngest will move on to big school.
I hope this post will inspire other parents to consider Peques for their little ones and that’s just a little something I would like to give back to such an amazing team of professionals and human beings!

August 10, 2021 at 12:00 amWhere shall I start…this place is just wonderful.
Our 2-year-old son has been going to Peques Anglo-Spanish Nursery Schools (Fulham Broadway) for almost a year and I can definitely say it is the best nursery you can find.
The outdoor area is massive for London, the nursery itself is bright and joyful, the food is home-cooked and varied, the activities are numerous and above all else is the incredible staff.
From the management team to every single teacher everyone is just adorable, happy and caring. You couldn’t dream of a better environment for your child.
I am extremely grateful that our son was lucky enough to go there, and as we are now moving back to France I can say that the whole family will really miss Peques!

August 20, 2021 at 12:00 amOur daughter started at Peques when she was about 8 months old and has now been there for 4 years. She’s about to leave to go to school and we are relieved that we have another child about to start at Peques because we would be too sad to say goodbye to this wonderful place! From the moment our daughter started there, they have been like a second family – it’s such a warm, caring environment and every member of staff knows our daughter and treats her with such affection and kindness. The staff have so much energy and are very creative coming up with games and activities. The garden is fantastic and food is delicious. And perhaps most importantly is the bilingual element – my husband is a native Spanish speaker and it was a great help to have her Spanish reinforced by native speakers at Peques. She’s also learning Mandarin there, which is a bonus! I would definitely recommend this nursery, whether you speak Spanish at home or not.

September 28, 2021 at 12:00 amI’ve been a parent at Peques Anglo-Spanish Nursery Schools for almost 5 years, my son started at 11 months to 4 years and then my daughter attended from 2 to 4.5 years. Throughout our time I have found Peques to be a wonderful setting for our children. They were cared for with lots of love and enthusiasm which I think stems from that distinctly warm Spanish attitude towards children.
The kid’s days are full of activities and play, they get plenty of garden time and fresh homemade food from the kitchen.
My children made firm friends there, as did I and I would recommend it highly to anyone.

October 18, 2022 at 12:00 amAs a new and working mum, I wanted to find the best place for my baby and luckily we did! Peques Fulham is great. From the manager to all teachers in the nursery your baby will be loved and cared for from an early stage. Facilities are also great and they have an open space which is amazing. The nurture, love, care and stimulation that your child will get in Peques is priceless. My baby felt like being at home almost immediately and she loves her teachers and she loves spending the day. The food’s also nutritious and they create great activities every day. If you want the best caring place for your baby, this is it! Thank you Peques Fulham.
