Angels Nursery and Pre-School has been so friendly, yet professional and supportive. They have helped my grandchild grow into a confident, bright, child who has learned so much from the staff and other children. The staff at Angels Nursery and Pre-School have supported my grandchild with learning through
play and he likes the staff and has built a great friendship circle. He enjoys going into nursery and also enjoys the many events that they hold where parents/carers are invited.

I couldn’t be happier for my child to have experienced Angel Nursery and Pre-School. First and foremost, it is about people. I visited many nurseries. But Angel has a very well established team of experienced personnel. I am so impressed with their professionalism and the degree of care for my child.
I knew my child is safe, which is key. But the approach to his learning and development was such a significant part for me. In addition, I encountered impressive soft skills - the way the manager and staff members work with so many different parents is commendable. They truly made the life of our family (with varying priorities and pressures) far easier and happier. The personnel are so inclusive (we had a few wonderful celebrations there), plus there was that extra effort to take children to interesting places (e.g. Parliament tour). We are so grateful for all the effort and support we received at Angel. I hope the company management will manage to retain this talented team. I would highly recommend this nursery!

My child has been attending Angel Nursery for almost one year. Angel Nursery offers a very warm and welcoming atmosphere, with a beautiful spacious garden area for the children to play and enjoy nature! My child really enjoys going to nursery in particular playing in the garden! All members of staff
at Angel Nursery are lovely, they were extremely understanding and helpful during the settling in period, which really helped my child settle in slowly. In addition Angel Nursery is very supportive and always open for accommodating what is best for the child as all children have different levels of support and needs. Angel Nursery have been exceptional in providing me with additional information and support for my child when it was required and I am very grateful for all their efforts. Thank You!

From the first day we visited Angel Nursery & Pre-School we knew our son would be happy there. We returned from an overseas military posting and Angel staff were really helpful ensuring our son felt supported and integrated well with his classmates.
The staff are so friendly and caring for all the
kids. I have recommended Angel Nursery & Pre-School to a number of families as I feel it's a little gem in Central London.
We are sad that our son's time there is coming to an end.

Angel Nursery & Pre-School has been an absolute godsend. It is an upstanding institution but it feels like a family. The staff is very caring towards all the children and always keeps us parents and guardians up to date on what’s going on with the nursery as a whole as well as about our little one’s
personal development. Speaking of the latter I’ve been really impressed with how much she’s grown whilst being at Angel and I know she will miss them greatly when she moves to primary school in September, but I am reassured with the knowledge that she has learned and developed the skills she will need to thrive in that new environment. Personally one of the things I’ve really loved is being given the opportunity to go into the nursery and interact with the children (supervised and assisted by staff) to do reading, cooking and baking with a group of the children. Whilst there I picked up a very warm vibe from the setting and could see lots of fun and learning taking place. Angel is an Amazing place.

Choosing Angel Nursery & Pre-School for my son was one of the best decisions I ever made.
If I could give this nursery 10 stars I would! From the moment we were first shown around the Nursery till now, I have been extremely impressed by the dedication, commitment and professionalism of all the staff.
We
are forever grateful for every support we have received from the whole team of Angel Nursery.

My son loves the nursery. All members of the nursery staff are very friendly and welcoming.
I wasn’t sure to send my child to Angel Nursery but after visiting the nursery I really liked it. My son also loves his key worker and everyone at the nursery.

I have a two year old son at Angel Nursery & Pre-School and prior to this, my daughter was also part of Angel Nursery three years ago. Knowing the teachers, the nursery and all its values I didn’t think twice about a different nursery for my son. I love everything about Angel Nursery, when I go to pick
my little boy up I usually have to chase him to get him out because he enjoys himself so much. Contact with the nursery in general is amazing, contact with my child’s key worker is always there. It’s a very supportive nursery and always there for the children and even us parents. I would always recommend Angel Nursery to every parent.

My son has been attending Angel Nursery since April 2021. I was really apprehensive about sending him after lockdown. But wow so glad I did, he has gained so much confidence since starting Angel Nursery. All the staff are amazing, a real little family there. My son has absolutely loved his time there
sad he is leaving, as he will be starting school in September. Cannot thank all the staff enough, I know my son is going to miss them all very much! If you're thinking about sending your child here please do! There’s no better nursery around Pimlico than here!

What an exceptional nursery! I decided to change my daughter's nursery so that she could be nearer her sibling's school and because I was not overly happy with her current nursery. This was the best decision that I made! Angel has a fantastic atmosphere, the staff are amazing. Always singing, laughing,
and having fun. Together they are a great team. My daughter has excelled whilst being there and has bonded with all of the ladies that work beside her. She was happy every single day to go in and sad at the weekends because nursery wasn't open. She is more than ready for her next chapter at big school and I know that she will take with her great memories! A huge thank you to all the ladies at Angel, I couldn’t be happier.

My child has been attending Angel Nursery for a year now. He transferred from another setting due to my health and has thrived since being at Angel. He absolutely loves the staff, especially his key worker who he tells me he loves all the time. He is always so excited to go to nursery and half the time
forgets to say bye to me. The staff are so lovely and relate back to me on how his day has been. I know my child is in the safest hands when left at nursery and I never have any doubts in regards to how well he is looked after. They really take an interest in your child and you can see it’s not just a job to them all the staff actually wholeheartedly love and care for each child. They helped with potty training. I even explained to them that my son wasn’t aware of the dangers of crossing the road and a workshop was organised for all children. I wouldn’t send my child anywhere else now. He is my third child and all my children have attended LEYF. My fourth will also attend in due course.

My daughter settled in super quickly and loves going to the nursery. When she was poorly she truly missed it! We were concerned about her speech delay but the nursery staff provided support from day one, and we can see a significant improvement in her speaking skills. She told us about her favourite
nursery rhyme and the names of her new friends which was quite thrilling - especially as she’s only been attending for three weeks. We are always kept up to date through the parent app - and my daughter loves seeing her pictures on the app. Thank you all for your hard work.

Overall I am very happy with Angel Nursery & Pre-School! When my son first started nursery it was a bit of a nightmare, he had separation anxiety and just wouldn't want me to leave, but the staff were amazing! They comforted him and gave him full attention until he was able to calm down and go play,
it made me feel I could leave at ease and not worry. All members of staff are very friendly, welcoming and very joyful. The nursery is always clean, with plenty of entertainment and activities. My son now runs to nursery and won't even say goodbye, he loves it and this is what all parents like to see, a happy child in an enjoyable environment.

Lovely nursery, fantastic staff, full trust in all of them, especially at this very difficult time. My very needy two-year-old started in January, he’s been with his parents all through lockdown so to be separated, was a huge thing! The staff made us all feel welcome and helped ease the difficulties
with the settling in period. My boy runs into nursery every day! Thank you Angel, you’re all amazing.

I couldn’t be happier with Angel Community Nursery, it’s a fantastic nursery with brilliant staff. My son started in April and whilst being a little nervous about leaving him on the first day, he settled in very well thanks to the support of his key worker and the rest of the team.
He loves coming
to nursery and is so happy. They prepare lots of activities for the children to do and staff make full use of the space, especially the garden, planing a full and varied itinerary each and every day.
They are fantastic at observing children’s interests and building on these to support their development, providing daily feedback and a weekly update they call the Friday 5, which make us feel fully involved in our son’s learning.
The staff are helpful, caring and loving towards the children and show genuine delight and happiness when they learn something new or do something funny. It’s so nice to know that he is in this safe and happy environment when not at home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.928)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.928) out of 10 for Angel Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.928 for Angel Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (297 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 320 Ratings = 4.928

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Angel Nursery & Pre-School is based on 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 28 number of registered child places is 5.6, which has been reached with 27 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
