Overall Experience

I couldn't be happier with our experience at MMI Croydon! The staff in the baby room are absolutely wonderful, so caring, attentive, and genuinely loving towards the little ones. It's clear they enjoy what they do, and it makes me feel at ease knowing my baby is in such good hands.
The management of

the nursery is fantastic, always approachable and supportive, and they've created such a warm and welcoming environment. I also love getting the daily updates, its' so lovely to see what she's been up to.
A big thank you to everyone for making it such a happy place for our little one!

Overall Experience

Our daughter started in the baby room and is now in the toddler room. Our youngest will be starting in the baby room in September. We are extremely happy with the nursery. Our daughter really settled quickly, now she runs in. She has learnt so much and is always bringing home things she has made in

the daily activities. There's good communication between teachers and parents and lots of events to attend so you feel a part of the nursery community. All the teachers and staff are lovely and you can see they really care about the children. The facilities are great, the space and the rooms are bright and welcoming. We are very happy and have recommended it to others.

Overall Experience

The most lovely nursery in the area. The teachers are lovely, always supporting my child. The settling in went smoothly and my child is happy to go to the nursery every morning. The Montessori approach gives children so much freedom and independence. And the garden is just huge, and safety all covered

with grass.

Overall Experience

I am the happiest mum of the happiest child ever. MMI helped my child to settle very smoothly and quickly. The teachers and the manager are lovely and take care for the children with love and professionalism. My child attends the nursery with a pleasure and enthusiasm. I can see the progress in the

behaviour and knowledge within the last few months.
Thank you MMI.

Overall Experience

I am regularly dropping off and collecting my grandson as his parents are both working. Such a lovely and welcoming environment. My grandson loves running inside, shouting bye bye nanna. He did cry for the setting in but the ladies confirmed him and it was all gone in a week time. Massive outdoor garden

is a bonus!

Overall Experience

My child has attended this educational and childhood preschool that follows the Montessori methodology as well as the Early years foundation stage. The manager and the staff are currently so focused and appreciative of each child's well-being. Happy to say that my little one is in secure and safe hands!
The

amazing outdoor space is a bonus as you don't always find a nursery with this massive outdoor in the middle of the park.

Overall Experience

My two children, ages 3 and 1, attend this nursery 5 days a week. My oldest has been attending little over 2 years at this nursery. It is a wonderful nursery that I often highly recommend to parents. The staff are amazing, really look after the children and care for them greatly to make them feel safe

and at home. It's more than a place for children to spend time in, there is an ethos of learning through play and children grow and develop wonderfully through this continuous work that the staff do with them. Everything from learning to eat with cutlery, to reading and loving books, using various tools, and putting on their own coats and shoes, to name a few things. Both my children love going and always talk about their peers and staff with affection. The staff use an external catering company that is great and serves fresh food, menu always looks very good. Facilities are great, outdoor space good, given 4 stars due to lack of nature access, there are great toys but no grass, trees.

MMI has been great for our son. The staff are caring, considerate and very focussed on the children. They make an effort to understand the kids holistically and share tips on how to help overcome challenges outside of nursery too. We have recommended the nursery to several close friends, and wouldn't

hesitate in recommending others too.

Reply from Aleksandra Garaloska, Manager at MMI Day Nursery Croydon

Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful recommendation! We're thrilled to hear that you've had such a positive experience, and it's our pleasure to support your son's growth both inside and outside the nursery.

Overall Experience

My daughter started MMI when she was two. After a year she became more independent and self-confident. She likes her nursery and teachers. All staff is very well prepared, nice and calm. When I'm asking my daughter about teachers she is always telling me how they played together and I'm sure that my

child has as much caring as she needs. As a parent, I also feel very well informed about my child's behaviour and achievements.

Reply from Aleksandra Garaloska, Manager at MMI Day Nursery Croydon

Thank you so much for sharing your kind words! We're delighted to hear about your daughter's growth in independence and confidence since starting with us. It's wonderful to know that she enjoys her time at the nursery and has such positive experiences with our teachers.Our team works hard to create a caring and supportive environment, so it's lovely to hear that both you and your daughter feel happy and well-informed. We truly value your feedback and look forward to continuing to support her development and learning journey.

Overall Experience

We decided to send our daughter to MMI on the strength of the testimonies of several friends who send their children there and our impression after meeting the nursery manager, seeing the facilities and learning about the MMI approach.
We are so pleased with our decision and can see that our daughter

is thriving in this environment, is well cared for and enjoys herself. The staff are friendly and accessible, communication is excellent and we feel involved as parents.
We are very happy with the Montessori ethos and the nursery itself so would definitely recommend it to any parents looking to send their child there.

I'm happy with this nursery because I've seen a big change in my daughter. She developed even more her talking specifically English language. She's become more independent and wants to do everything herself. And I'm very happy because she's a very happy and bright kid and I think most of these changes

are due to the nursery.

Reply from Aleksandra Garaloska, Manager at MMI Day Nursery Croydon

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! It's fantastic to hear about the progress your daughter has made, especially with her English and growing independence. Seeing her happiness and bright personality shine is exactly what we strive for, and we're so glad that you feel the nursery has played a part in her development. Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we're so happy to have your family as part of our nursery community!

Overall Experience

I highly recommend MMI Nursery.
My son joined at 2 and stayed until he started school. He can be anxious in new settings but MMI was like a 2nd home for him and he couldn't wait to go in. The Montessori setting meant he could explore what interested him and he developed interests and passions that

have stayed with him. He also formed very strong friendships that have lasted years after leaving. My daughter started at 9 months and will stay until school. At the gates, I barely get a goodbye as she runs in to see her friends and she comes home each day with stories of the games she's played and conversations she's had. She can be quite stubborn but all the staff have gone out of their way to try to accommodate her, especially her fussy eating! She had a severe dairy allergy when she started and the team were extremely cooperative in making sure her needs were met to avoid or manage flare-ups.
I'm very thankful to the manager and her wonderful team for all they do to create such a warm and fostering environment.

Reply from Aleksandra Garaloska, Manager at MMI Day Nursery Croydon

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that both your son and daughter feel so at home here. Watching them grow, build friendships, and develop their unique interests is such a joy for our team. We're especially glad we could support your daughter's needs, from her dietary requirements to nurturing her independence. Your kind words mean a lot, and we're grateful to be a part of your family's journey. Regards MMI Team

My daughter has attended MMI for almost 2 years now, the staff and management are great and their approach towards the overall development of the child is amazing. I have seen my daughter become independent in the tasks and is now ready to start her school in September 2024. I am truly grateful to the

whole staff, and a special shout out to one staff member in particular whom my daughter just adores. Thanks team for helping me with my parenthood journey!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at MMI for one year now and I genuinely don't think you can find anything better than MMI (having also come from another nursery). From the manager to every single member of staff, the facilities, the support and communication, everything is fantastic. They really know how to keep

the focus on the children and don't get lost in frivolous stuff, they keep communication short, confident, informative and they lead the way. I am so grateful for the comfort of knowing how well my child is looked after and how much she enjoys nursery. Settling in was easy and over a year she has flourished enormously; even joining the preschool class more recently has been such an easy transition. Also, parents can get involved in plenty of activities and I love that! I can't recommend MMI enough!

I was a little apprehensive about moving my twins to this nursery as it was a big change from their previous childcare setting; however, the staff have been fantastic and really made the transition so easy. They run in happily every day and have learnt so much in just a couple of months. I love the

additional activities offered, e.g. cooking and teddy tennis, to add variety to the week. So pleased we made the move!

I couldn’t ask for my son to attend a better nursery. The staff are exceptional, and we class them as family, as they treat my child so well. My son was ever so nervous to start nursery and took a while to settle, although everyone made sure he felt safe, well looked after and cared for. He now runs

into the nursery - he can’t wait to go. I couldn’t rate this nursery any higher if I tried. Thank you to the manager and co; you are all absolutely amazing, and we love you all!
