July 26, 2022 at 12:00 amMine and my daughter’s experience at Pooh Corner SW7 has been exceptional. Schools often rise and fall with their management, and I am incredibly impressed with how the Kindergartens has had two equally caring, intelligent, really dedicated, hard-working heads of the nursery during my daughter’s time there (1.5 years). The care and attention given to each child every day by the teachers is genuine, individual and forward-thinking. Teaching is imaginative and varied so that the children never get bored and learn easily. I can’t believe that my daughter is starting to read and write, not only her name but also other words. The variety of activities during the regular school day and after-school clubs has also added to her experience from maths, to a mud kitchen and hop scotch in the nursery garden, gardening, coach trips to forest school in Wimbledon Commons, cooking, ballet, tennis and other sports. Parents are part of the community and always informed. I would do it over again!

August 1, 2022 at 12:00 amMy younger boy was at Pooh Corner for two years and we had a great experience. He loved going to the nursery and was so much in his comfort zone though with a lot of personal one to one attention from the teachers given the small class sizes. He learned so much and was very well prepared for school even though he was an August born so youngest in his class!

August 10, 2022 at 12:00 amAs a child growing up in Covid times daughter was rather shy and reticent around strangers. However, after being in kindergarten for 1 plus years she has really blossomed and is chatty, outgoing and inquisitive. She loves going to school, her schoolmates and teachers. I out this down to the nurturing environment. While the school may not have the newest facilities they more than makeup for it through the “soft” aspect in terms of pastoral care and dedication of teachers,

August 15, 2022 at 12:00 amVery well-managed nursery with wonderful teachers who really care about the children and formed a great bond with friendly parents, who are all regularly included in learning activities. The sports day was extremely well run, great fun and a celebration of the children’s achievements. The headteacher was always available, kind, helpful and run’s the nursery very well. We are pleased to hear that the setting is being renovated in time for September. The open plan classrooms allowed year groups to mix, which was great for gaining confidence with older children and expanded the pool of friends.

November 2, 2022 at 12:00 amOur son went to Pooh Corner SW7 from the age of 2. The setting is amazing, very spacious, with lots of fun activities for the kids. Forest School for upper kindergarten kids was also a highlight. The teaching staff were so attentive, kind and caring – they really helped our son grow in confidence, and develop social skills and taught him phonics, counting, writing as well as topics of interest like space, road rules etc! We were very happy with Pooh Corner and will be sending our daughter there also! The heads also really helped us to navigate the next steps re schools in the area and I found their help and assistance in this regard invaluable.

June 6, 2023 at 12:00 amWe are really pleased with Pooh Corner SW7. The teaching and care is fantastic, facilities/equipment are brand new (fully refurbished in 2022) and nursery is spacious. Forest school is a great offer, so are weekly sports and ballet from external teachers. The parent community is tight-knit, making new parents feel welcomed. I have seen my child grow into an independent, confident child who is looking forward to her day at nursery every morning. We do wish the outdoor space was bigger but otherwise very happy.

June 7, 2023 at 12:00 amMy 3 children have gone to Pooh Corner SW7, with my little one finishing this year, so I have known their teachers and staff closely for over 7 years and they have always been amazing, caring and giving lots of love and attention to kids. The ratio of children to teachers is very little so the kids are really in a family atmosphere. I trust them and feel Pooh Corner SW7 is the best nursery I could have found. Thank you to Pooh Corner staff.

June 7, 2023 at 12:00 amGreat loving and caring nursery. Everything is centred around children’s well-being and is done in a flexible manner.
The new layout is much brighter than it was in the past and provides a very nice atmosphere where children are happy.
All teachers, regardless of the class they are responsible for, do know all children and their respective preferences/unique traits.
Everyone is responsive ensuring great and timely communication with the parents.

June 9, 2023 at 12:00 amExcellent nursery, highly recommended! Very kind, warm hearted and supportive staff. Lots of activities, including outside of nursery (for example, forest school). Definitely the top choice in Kensington.
