My almost 4yo son spent a year at Smithfield house while his parents were studying in London. It is such a wonderful place, with the kindest and most loving staff in every position. He did not speak any English upon arrival but found it very easy to communicate from the first day and learned a lot of English throughout the year. The food was always good, variety of things to do and lot of creative playing with colours, shapes, drawings etc. For people working or studying in central London, the location is perfect and the facilities were always clean and up to the highest hygienic standards. Communication with staff was flawless and they took such good care of our son.
We couldn't be happier with our decision to enroll our children at Smithfield House Children's Nursery. From the moment they started attending at the ages of 3.8 and 1.2, our little ones settled in quickly. One aspect that truly sets the nursery apart is the dedication of its staff. The practitioners go above and beyond to organize interesting and engaging activities for the children on a daily basis, which fosters their skill development and sparks their interests. Our son has developed a deep bond with his carers and looks forward to going to the nursery every morning with pure enthusiasm. Our daughter has made remarkable progress, including learning English over a short period. Thank you, Smithfield Nursery, for being an exceptional place for our children to learn, grow, and flourish.
Our 20 month old daughter has been attending Smithfield House for a year now and we could not be more satisfied with the care she’s received. The carers are not only supremely qualified but every one of them treats our daughter with the same amount of love and attention she is used to at home, it’s no wonder she is always in such a great mood when we drop her off and pick her up. The environment is always so calm, pleasant and familial and our daughter’s days are kept so busy and diversified. 100% recommend!!!
Our daughter joined Smithfield Nursery in June 2022 at 8 months old and the ladies working in the baby room made it so easy for both us and our daughter to settle into nursery. Our daughter loves everyone there and is thriving with all of the amazing activities they arrange for them and has made so many friends. She comes home and has learnt something new daily and it's all thanks to this nursery!
Smithfield House Children’s Nursery is our baby’s second home. Everyone is so caring and warm, that it feels like he’s being taken care of by family. The administration is stellar - everything is done exactly right and the responsiveness is immediate. We couldn’t have asked for more!
