Reviews on Bright Horizons / St Martin's / Hendon Prep?

[MrsKJay]

Hi everyone,

I'm moving to Mill Hill East in 3 weeks and need to urgently move my just turned 3 year old son into a nursery or pre-school there. I've tried all the good ones in the area that have great reviews:
Rocking Horse
Bright Little Stars
Belmont Farm

But none of them have space unfortunately. So I'm left with the following choice - if anyone knows anything about them please?:
Bright Horizons Whetstone
Bright Horizons North Finchley
St Martin's Pre-school
Hendon Prep Pre-school

We'd like him to ideally start Grimsdell at 4+ or Habs at 5+ (should he get in), so really want to get him in somewhere that would prep him well for the assessments... TIA! Xx

Hello MrsKJay,

How has your experience been moving to Mill Hill East and which pre school did you decide on? I am making the same move

We are looking for a school for our son, aged 4, and including Mill Hill School, Aldenham, Habs, Highgate, UCS, and local prep schools (Manor Lodge, Edge Grove, Radlett Prep, Goodwyn).
We want to send him to a school that stretches children of all sporting and academic abilities and also has a sibling policy.
All very confusing- we’d appreciate the thoughts of parents with kids at any of these schools.
Thank you x
