RIMU Music Day Nursery & Forest School

from Ben L (Father of Child) published on 25 July 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Excellent experience after a year of sending our son to RIMU Lee. He has come on very well and seems happy at the start and end of every nursery day. We've seen improvements in his eating and we like getting daily reports of the different food he has been eating, or at least trying! He's also become
more confident with counting, being able to tell different colours and drawing. The nursery regularly introduces new learning topics such as space, architecture and dinosaurs - we get updated both from our son and through pictures/messages sent by the nursery. In addition, the weekly music/singing session has become a highlight of his week. Staff are very approachable and have always been happy and prompt to help us. They've been fantastic with our son; he knows them all by name and seems comfortable with everyone. Would happily recommend the nursery.

We have been extremely happy with Rimu at their Lee venue and the staff that work there.
The staff worked hard at creating a safe, fun, caring environment and our son quickly settled there.
We appreciate all the hard work the staff put in including the extra activities like the summer show, Father's
Day party etc.

from Ryan T (Father of Child) published on 24 July 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

We've had a very positive experience with our two kids attending RIMU. We enjoy the engagement from the staff and hearing about what fun things the kids have done when we pick them up in the evening. I have seen first-hand their creative development from the mix of unique activities and sensorial experiences
that are done at nursery. Also, they have a showcase twice a year which we always look forward to.
The food served is great. We are assured that it is healthy and there's a variety offered to expose the kids to different cultural foods. The updates on the app are my favourite. I can track what they've had to eat, sleeping times, toileting, and pictures and videos from their learning experiences throughout my day.
We highly recommend RIMU. Thank you to the managers and staff!

My 2-year-old son has been going to RIMU Music Day Nursery & Forest School for over a year now and it has consistently been a great experience. The staff are super friendly and well-trained and have managed to build great relationships with him. He has developed above my expectations and is particularly
proud of all the fun activities that he can bring home to show us. We get consistent, high-quality updates and observations throughout the day, and it's obvious the staff care about him. Would recommend without hesitation.

Reply from Nathalie Richardson, Owner at RIMU Music Day Nursery & Forest School

Hi Stuart, thanks for this wonderful review of my Lee branch of RIMU. It's been an exciting year since we opened at King's Church Lee and It's fantastic to have such positive comments for the team. I know how hard they work and these comments will be much appreciated.

RIMU nursery has indeed exceeded my expectations. The worries of a new mum for a good nursery is very common. My son settled and was generally happy to be in nursery. Staff are attentive and display professionalism. I will definitely recommend RIMU to every mum.

from Uwa A (Mother of Child) published on 1 February 2023
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our daughter has been at RIMU since she was eight months old and it's one of the best decisions we made for her. RIMU has provided a stimulating home away from home where my child has felt loved and nurtured. She has been exposed to all the additional activities - football, dance, drama and animal zoo
- the nursery has to offer, whilst also having individual attentive care and education. We frequently get complimented on her maturity and advanced development - which I have to credit to the team at RIMU. They are also a gem to us as new parents. I rely on being able to take any question (however small) about our daughter to them and receiving informed advice. They have also gone above and beyond for us personally when we have required support or flexibility. They've remained a secure constant in our daughter's life that a cherish and do not take for granted. The facilities and extracurriculars are all great but RIMU's star quality is the staff who clearly take pride and love what they do.

Our son has been attending RIMU for just over a year and has loved it from the start. The practitioners are fantastic, a really lovely genuinely caring and enthusiastic team. They put so much thought and effort into their activities and the amount they pack into the day is remarkable. The children do
a range of 'extracurriculars from French, to drama and dancing and singing to sports. The menus are also well thought out and the daily reports are informative. Staff turnover in our son's class has also been low which I think speaks volumes. Genuinely can't recommend them enough.

We have been with this nursery for three years and the service has been consistently high. Staff are caring, hard working and creative with learning, development and entertainment. Food is healthy. Facilities are newer at one site compared to another but functional and serve the purpose. Outside space
could be better but it's a common limitation in the UK. The location and transportation are great.

Due to being a 'Covid baby', I was worried about my daughter going to nursery with very little experience being around other children and adults. Fortunately, the staff at RIMU were very patient, attentive, and understanding, and within a matter of weeks, my little girl transformed! Her development
has come leaps and bounds and she seems very happy to go every day.

My son has been to 3 nurseries so far and RIMU is by far the best. The carer and staff are always happy (and less exhausted!) and they put in a lot of effort with activities and events. They even potty trained my son! I would highly recommend RIMU to other prospective parents looking to place their
child in a nursery.

An excellent nursery providing quality care in a gentle and effective way. The carers are so enthusiastic, nurturing, friendly and available - they are at the heart of what makes the nursery so special. There is clearly an ethos and culture that follows through, because, despite any turnover, the continuity
of care, learning and child-led growth is maintained.

Reply from Nathalie Richardson at RIMU Music Day Nursery & Forest School

Dear Marissa. Thanks so much for this positive review! It is greatly appreciated and we have loved having both your children at RIMU.

We have been very impressed in the 3 years our son has attended. He has developed socially in a very positive way. The activities are a good mix of education but also more importantly "play" and fun for the kids. The nursery teachers are very good to the children and communication from the management
is also frequent, relevant and informative. Our son is now ready for school we are very grateful to RIMU for our son's journey and development and would highly recommend this nursery.

Reply from Nathalie richardson at RIMU Music Day Nursery & Forest School

Many thanks for this wonderful review. My staff and management are very dedicated and it is always uplifting to receive such positive comments.


Best of luck for the future.

Both of our children (one entering year 4, the other starting school this year) have attended RIMU Music Preparatory School & Nursery and the care they received over that time has never been anything short of excellent. The nursery is a calm, caring environment where the children are encouraged to develop
at their own pace. Lots of structured activities are provided - street dance, gymnastics, singing, but there's also time for the children to play and form their own personalities. Watching them play together outside of nursery, it is clear that they are all very fond of each other.

Excellent nursery my son came here from the age of 2 until he left for school. Lots of things to do and good little trips to the local library. Staff were lovely but only complaint is that it is a high turn over of staff so children see lots of people come and go.

Reply from Alison, Manager at RIMU Music Day Nursery & Forest School

Thank you for your review and feedback.
I would like to add that that the staff turnover was due to one member of staff relocating, one deciding to further their career in a managerial position and another utilising a teaching degree in a school environment. This was no reflection of the setting. Thank you again for your comments we really appreciate it.

This is an excellent nursery. My older daughter has been attending since November 2013 and the younger one since July 2015 and we continue being extremely satisfied with the care provided. The staff are very friendly and develop great rapport with both children and parents. Each child is encouraged
to develop confidence and individuality whist engaging in a multitude of group activities and play. The children get a singing, gymnastics, ballet, drama or street dance class with a professional teacher every day which my daughters love. The meals provided are balanced and varied. We feel very fortunate to have such a great nursery in our area.
