January 4, 2017 at 12:00 amA welcoming community nursery with a fun, homely and professional feel. Nice decoration with children and staff creative displays on walls. Always polite and friendly attitude. Always organising events for the children to participate such as Christmas party celebrations and other charity fun days. I like the encouragement given to my son in his early years of development. I like my son’s learning skills and progression at Puddleducks Nursery. Thank you for your efforts and hard work in making this comfortable and enjoyable for us.

June 26, 2017 at 12:00 amThis nursery is different to larger nurseries in that it has a real family feel. The staff know all the children’s names and really care for their well-being. Everyone is friendly and willing to spend time on a daily basis to discuss your child’s progress and development. As a parent, I am kept well informed of activities that my child partakes in and I am updated if my child learns or does something new.
The children spend a lot of time playing in the garden and have lots of messy play. They also do trips to the park and have music and Spanish lessons.
I feel confident leaving my child in their care and they were also very supportive when my child first started and helping with that transitional period.

June 26, 2017 at 12:00 amBeen a user/customer of Puddleducks Nursery, Friern Barnet Road, London N11 for over 5 years. A compact and decent space for children to play, learn and develop. Though the nursery has had it’s ups and downs, overall, it’s been a good experience for my family. I will recommend Puddleducks, especially to families with young children. Good location, good outdoor space.

October 1, 2018 at 12:00 amVery unprofessional management! I won’t recommend to anybody! The new manager was rude and not professional at all! The place was, most of the time, dirty or very wet and slippery, not safe for young toddlers! My baby had a lot of incidents in this nursery and I received little explanation! Parents beware when you take your toddler to this nursery!

September 19, 2019 at 12:00 amPuddleducks is a wonderful nursery. My son was looked after so well there and he shot up in his development. The nursery provides regular feedback and development, photos/videos using the online tool ‘tapestry’ so that you can see what your child has been up to. At the end of each day, I got a full verbal report of what activities my child had done and also what he had eaten. The staff there are so friendly and helpful, they really listen if you have any concerns about your child and they will action if they can help. We have since moved nurseries due to relocating to a new area and we honestly miss going to this nursery.
We wish them all the very best.

August 4, 2020 at 12:00 amBoth my daughters have attended Puddleducks Nursery and both have had very positive experiences there. The nursery has a strong community feel, where all the staff know and care for the children and take a genuine interest in their well being and learning. My daughters formed very strong relationships with the staff and were always happy to go to the nursery, and even complained when it wasn’t their day to attend! The staff work very hard to make the most of all learning opportunities, using the playground and taking children on outings and to nearby parks. They provide unique experiences for the children, celebrating religious holidays, arranging for external visitors to speak to the children and incorporating different classes such as Spanish or singing and dance into their day. They are also very flexible with the changing needs of the parents and do their best to incorporate them wherever possible. My children were very sad to leave but leave with lots of happy memories!

March 23, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter attended Puddleducks Nursery New Southgate for just over six months. The staff were absolutely incredible, welcoming and friendly. I feel they looked after my child as if she was their own. My daughter attended during the pandemic and they tried their hardest to stay open where possible, followed all the rules and put my mind at ease. The settling in sessions were great, I could see she was in safe hands and the staff also helped toilet train. The food was great most days, she had two servings as she enjoyed it so much, snacks, breakfast and water were also given. I would highly recommend Puddleducks Nursery New Southgate to anybody looking for childcare. On her birthday they sang to her, I provided a nut-free cake, they used candles and just made her day super special. Amazing nursery and amazing staff.

November 23, 2021 at 12:00 amHome-like nursery for my 2.5-years-old. She loves going there. She won’t accept anything less, has learnt a lot in just a few weeks. The staff is nice and friendly. Class strength is perfect for every child to get good attention. Highly recommend whoever is looking for a home-like nursery.
