Hi all,
We are looking for nurseries in Surbiton/Kingston upon Thames area for our baby boy who will turn 1 year old in September.
We kind of liked Aspire in surbiron and bright horizons at elm road in Kingston.
We liked Aspire because the manager was amazing and she explained in detail the activities and how the nursery works. However we feel it accepts far too many kids than they can fit in theirs spaces - 130 in total. The staff seems all very young so not sure if they have adequate experience. It is very close to a nice park, which is nice, and only 10 min from ours which is convenient.
The bh at elm road is 30 minutes walk from ours. But the spaces looked amazing, quite big and despite the large building and spacey facilities, they accept around 95 children. The manager wasn't that great though as she show us only the baby room in a rush so we don't have a good understanding of the activities they do. We haven't seen the staff as the viewing was after hours too.
Do you have any experience in any of those two nurseries? Any recommendations will be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Eirini
