Fulham Nurseries

[STMT]

I’m considering nurseries in Fulham for my DD for when she turns 9 months. We are considering Montessori, Bright Horizons Fulham Wharf, Millie’s House and Parsons Green Nursery. What experience do any of you have with these?

My advice is to go see the nursery. Use these headings to assess and evaluate the nursery, social, communication, physical, emotional and general development. Read the inspection report if there is one available and make some brief notes too. Look at artwork and try to determine if the kids are happy as well. Talk to a few members of staff and parents in addition and try to peek at the website. Find out as much as possible in advance.

Thank you, @languagelover96.

Posting here is only part of my research. I am doing what you have advised - looking at the websites, checking inspection reports, and visiting, etc. What I am hoping to get here is honest opinions or feedback from anyone with personal experience with these specific nurseries. During scheduled visits, everyone is on their best behaviour and I doubt staff is free to be 100% honest when being asked how they feel right there at their jobs and in front of their managers so I find it useful to get more information than what the nurseries are able to represent for themselves.

If there is anyone out there with first-hand experience, who has sent their children there or has heard from anyone who has, I would appreciate your feedback. Thank you!

Hi, I'm trying to find out the same info! What did you think about the nurseries you saw? We were pleased with bright horizons, but I've read an article about a staff member being accused of abuse, hurting a child when trying to get them to sleep, which has got me really worried.
