I am very happy with this nursery. My child started just before her first birthday. I was really hoping it will work for us because it’s the only nursery around that opens until 7pm ( which is amazing, I work until 6pm). And 1.5 years later I can’t wish for a better nursery for my child. She is happy
there, has made friends, learned so many things (numbers, shapes, colours, plenty of songs and also manners). She learned to speak English in the nursery and was potty trained.
Staff is very patient and caring and will always listen to your concerns and thoughts.
Practitioners will always find some spare shoes and clothes and change kids if feet or clothes are wet.
The nursery is not trying to collect money for many different things. The price has stayed the same since we started. The only time when it’s closed is Christmas week.
I always have peace of mind when I leave my child with them.

I am very happy to recommend to all my friends this nursery. The staff is very friendly and very carrying to our kids. The activities are very fun and my son has learned many things which I am very happy about. All the staff are very playful and enjoy their job, and that's the thing I like because
is a very warm place for kids and my son is attached to all the staff. Thank you for making my son happy and of course me too.

My son (13 months) started Magic Roundabout Nursery at the end of October 2018. So far I am happy with the choice I made. He’s developed massively in a month; eats alone, is wanting to walk whereas before he wasn’t, his speech has improved and he’s become more independent and intrigued by his surroundings.
The staff are always friendly, helpful and happy to answer questions. Satisfied mummy.

My child has been at this nursery since the age of 6 months and she is currently 22 months. I have created a lovely relationship with the staff and they have contributed towards my daughter's development. She enjoyed coming into nursery every day and speaks regularly about her peers and teachers at
home. Thank you for your hard work!

My son has been attending here for three years and I can truly say that we are extremely happy with his development. It has never been a struggle when dropping him off in the morning and he's always happy and smiling when we pick him up. The staff are very warm and professional and he loves them all.
They are always available for a chat and help out whenever needed. I love that he is developing on all levels and am happy to see a steady progress.

The nursery is very good, my child who attends the nursery really enjoys being at the nursery and always comes back from the nursery with a smile. I would recommend this nursery to all parents and carers, the nursery workers are all very kind and love to fill out children with knowledge. They take care
of the children as if they are their own. This nursery is an amazing place for children.

Since my son joined Magic Roundabout and the age of 1.5 years old I have seen him develop and excel in his communication skills as well as learning new things every day from counting, painting, cooking, using the alphabet and acting out some of the books that are read to them (his favourite book is
the Gruffalo).


He enjoys both the indoor and outdoor activities including games that the nursery provide for them as they make it a fun filled day which makes learning enjoyable.


I would highly recommend the Magic Roundabout.

My child has been attending this nursery for 8 months now. At the end of the day she is always happy and smiling and this is due to the very good care and to the various activities. The staff are kind and highly qualified. They are always available to speak with the parents and inform them even for
the smallest details. The management team is helpful and ready to solve every single problem. The staff focuses on the development of each child individually. I would definitely recommend it to everyone! Many thanks to all of you in the nursery!

My daughter has been attending this nursery for 5 months, and she is enjoying her time here. I was initially worried about the quality of care my daughter would receive at a low price in relation to other nurseries in London, but I am very satisfied with the care, safeguarding and quality of resources
my daughter is receiving!
Thank you very much for all staff in the baby room, for your hard work.

As a parent, my children are very precious to me as I assume all parents feel.
So when choosing childcare you pray you have left your precious child in safe hands and with Magic Roundabout I felt that.
I am an extremely fussy, opinionated parent, and had ups and downs with the nursery but the parents,
staff and management relationships were very open, upfront and professional, this enabled all matters that were raised were dealt with effectively and efficiently. It is a welcoming, experienced and friendly nursery.
Could do with a brighter interior and more effective parking, also more variety of food on the menu. The manager and the team do a brilliant job. We will miss you but will visit.

My son has been attending for 2 months and he enjoys going. I was very nervous as you would be but they assured me he would be fine, and no need to worry. My son is doing great. He had his first review and he is doing very well for his age. Great place.

This is a large nursery with excellent opening hours and facilities. My son always appeared happy and playing when I picked him up after a day full of various and stimulating activities. Staff are friendly and caring with the children in all rooms and appropriate to the age (really loving and caring
in baby room... and encouraging independence and autonomy in pre-school).
I always knew my child is well cared for when I was at work, and I would be called if anything was not right.
I know for sure my son will start school well prepared!
Many thanks to the staff who looked after my son well for four and a half years!

I have been very grateful how the entire team looks after my child, all my requests have been met and the staff always goes beyond my expectations.
The room leaders are very caring and they set a good example to the team. The kitchen staff always make sure that my daughter is well treated as she is
intolerant to cow's milk.
The senior management is very proactive and doing its best in running the place.
Thank you very much for your support, help and good words.
I truly recommend the Magic Roundabout at Stockwell.

My child has been attending this nursery from 22 months to his graduation today. As a parent, all you want for your child is the best.
Not only can my child count to 10 in Mandarin, Portuguese, Spanish and Greek he can also sing songs. His ability to do all of this is down to the Staff
The diversity
of all staff and management team at the nursery works well.
The facilities they have in place for the children are excellent, they do different classes such as cooking, music, PE. The nursery also has education day trips to different places such as the transport museums and farms.
The outdoor space for the children to play in is superb and very spacious.
The management team and staff are very welcoming and helpful, they offer discounts for referrals. The opening and closing time (7am to 7.30pm)
The Magic Roundabout Nursery is an excellent nursery, my son and I are going to miss the management and staff at the Magic Roundabout they have become part of our family.

Based on the passion, high standards, and expectation of the Nursery Manager it is no wonder why this nursery has grown in strength. Staff are aware of the current changes in education and focus on children in both nursery and pre-school, to ensure they leave above the national average. One thing that
stands out, is that the management always ensures the children's safeguarding is always the number one priority, whilst parents voices are heard and valued. The new home learning provided for pre-schoolers demonstrates the work undertaken in the classes, the vision and direction in which the nursery is heading. The introduction of home learning demonstrates the partnership the nursery has formed with parents, that ensures education and well-being is at the forefront of everything they do. As an advocate for outstanding education, I for one stand behind this nursery and will highly recommend to all parents as it goes above and beyond the guidelines that are provided for nurseries and pre-schools.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.277)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.277) out of 10 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Stockwell is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 16 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 4.847 for Magic Roundabout Nursery Stockwell is calculated as follows: ( (163 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.847

  • 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 4.43 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Magic Roundabout Nursery Stockwell is based on 16 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 186 number of registered child places is 37.2. 16 Positive Reviews ÷ 37.2 = 0.43

  • 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.
