I would definitely recommend the Little Garden Hammersmith Nursery. My daughter started when she was 6 months old and settled in very easily. She is very much enjoying her time there with all the various fun and educational activities. The staff is great, everyone is very nice, attentive and caring
for the children.

My daughter has been attending nursery since just before she turned 1 year old. She has settled in beautifully and loves going to nursery. She has a very strong bond with her main caretaker and the other ladies, also. All of the staff working there are absolutely wonderful, the energy is great and they
treat the children with love and kindness, which is the most important aspect for me as a mum. She is learning new things at a very fast pace now, and it is beautiful to watch. I am at peace knowing my child is in great hands. Definitely highly recommend Little Garden The Hammersmith Day Nursery!

My daughter started attending at 1 year old and she has settled in beautifully after an initial bumpy start. She has learned so much and is picking up new words and skills now at an accelerated pace. She absolutely loves going to nursery, often asking me to take her on on her days off and usually has
to drag her home at the end of the day! Thank you to all the staff looking after her, it is clear that she is well looked after and has built strong bonds.

The nursery provides a really nice environment for the children with a lot of room for different types of play and a really nice garden. My daughter has always felt comfortable with the staff and the other children. She has always engaged in a lot of different activities and she has been able to develop
really well over the years. My daughter also really enjoys the singing and Spanish lessons.

At the Hammersmith Day Nursery, our son has fun and engages in activities that are always different and stimulating. It offers the right balance between encouraging him to participate into new and diverse activities and letting him play and enjoy his favourite past times (cars and trains!), as well
as between individual and group time. Children also get to spend regular time outdoors and once a week do physical exercise (playball), although everyone's favourite is Spanish with songs and a guitar. Staff is caring and attentive, the atmosphere always welcoming. Children are encouraged (but not forced) to become more independent, for example at the table during meals. Finally, it's nice to read the daily reports, especially when you can tell they are customised for your child.

Reply from Harjit, Digital Marketing Executive at Little Garden The Hammersmith Day Nursery & Pre-School

Thank you for the review, we love setting up all the activities for the children to enjoy, and love watching them grow into independent little people.

Our son arrived at the nursery in November 2021, not speaking a word of English. The staff has been very careful to ensure he can play with other kids and helped him to learn and express himself. He is now in his element only after few months and is growing up so fast! The staff are not only caring,
they have a lot of affection for all the kids. Thank you.

Our son has been with The Hammersmith Day Nursery & Pre-School since August 2020 and we have seen him flourish since that time. He has transitioned into the pre-school room and we have been so impressed with the level of care, activities and learning he is receiving. They are doing an excellent job
of preparing him for primary school as well as boosting his confidence and independence to take on this new milestone. We're always impressed with the diversity of the activities they do each day and get a full report on his actions via the app which is so useful. The staff are also excellent at encouraging his eating (we struggle with that at home!) and are grateful for their support in this area. Most of all, we love the staff who clearly love and care for him and all the other children so much, and you can't really ask for more than that. We will be sorry to leave!

We have been with the nursery for over a year and it’s been such a wonderful experience for our little one, as well as the parents. The nursery has a perfect balance of education through play and our toddler is thriving. She has love and support from the nursery team to grow both emotionally and intellectually.
She can’t wait to leave the house every morning to go to “school”! Our second child will be attending the nursery as well, once they’re old enough. We can’t recommend the team at Hammersmith Day Nursery enough.

My son has attended Little Gardens since he was just shy of a year old and will leave later this year as he starts Reception at 4.5.
I can’t describe how great the care for him has been at this nursery/pre-school. Not only is it well run and organised, it is obvious that every single person who works
there cares deeply about the well-being and development of my child. It’s been a true partnership and I will miss it in the autumn. My son has been cared for, loved, hugged, offered well-balanced and nutritious food, learnt things, had his creativity and imagination stimulated and learned great manners (much better than I could have done on my own!). The nursery has also managed difference beautifully; my son is donor conceived and I’ve been included in Father’s Day celebrations, they’ve taken the time to talk about families etc. Couldn’t recommend Little Gardens highly enough. Huge thank you from a grateful parent.

Our son has been attending the nursery for over 3 years now and he is so happy there. All the lovely staff were part of our son's development and 1st stage in life and helped prepare him for school through creative and educational activities. All of the staff are so nurturing and supportive and they
provide him with so much care, attention and positivity. Our son has always been happy when arriving at the nursery in the morning and when picked up in the afternoon. He has learned a lot and developed from a baby to a young, polite and confident boy. In summary, we are pleased to highly recommend the nursery and believe it has provided the perfect foundation for him to continue his journey in life. A big thank you to all the team, we will never forget you!

I'm very happy with this nursery: my son attended since he was 9 months old and the attention is fantastic. All carers are dedicated and willing to improve, listening to our comments and implementing changes to make all parties feel at home. It's a clean space and the atmosphere of children and parents
is very positive and healthy.
I would recommend this nursery to those living in the area.

My youngest son has been going to the Hammersmith nursery since November 2021. He started at three months old, so very little still, but I knew he was in good hands. First and for all because his older brother also started there and he was always very happy there. The little one was received with lots
of affection and the staff absolutely really care, that is what I like most. The children are all individually very important to them and that is very comforting. Also, the premises, the activities and the menus are top level. I thank them very much for everything they do for my two boys.

We have had two daughters at The Hammersmith Nursery, both of whom have flourished within it. The activities are varied and stimulating, we get a lot of detail on their progress and daily activities and they have a wonderful bond with the nursery staff. Compared to other nurseries, staff turnover is
noticeably lower and there is a very stable management. Furthermore, the management has gone to some lengths to provide male members of staff, which is very important. The team is dedicated and manage and respond to feedback well. The nursery's relatively long opening hours (0730 - 1830) are a real help for working parents. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Hammersmith Nursery.

My daughter started in September 2021, we hadn’t been into the nursery to visit because of COVID and had just signed her up on a recommendation. I am a nursery teacher myself (potentially a tough client!) and we couldn’t be happier with how she has settled in, the activities and opportunities she has,
the friendly staff and the garden time. Since her first day (11 months old) she has always been happy going in and coming out of Nursery. She loves the food too!

My son has been attending this nursery since he was 10 months old and he is now 3 and a half years old. He is very happy there and so excited to go in every day. He is very fond of the staff who all come across very caring and lovely. Good activities every day which are shared with parents through an
app with pictures, this has been a godsend during the pandemic where we are unable to enter due to health and safety. Keep up the good work Hammersmith Day Nursery.

Our son started at exactly one-year-old and during Covid. Although the transition was a bit more difficult for us than for him since parents were not allowed inside, our son settled in very well and they made sure to keep us updated about progress and what we could do to ease him in.
He loves his teachers
and comes home very happy every day. The staff do a great job teaching important skills, sticking to the government guidelines and our son has learned so many new things while attending (including yoga!).
We are constantly impressed by his meal selection and love that they give so many nutritious options.
The nursery does a great job updating us and we absolutely love the app which provides daily updates and photographs on our son's activities, eating, etc. We would highly recommend the nursery!

Our son attended this nursery from November 2018 to August 2021 and it has been a really good experience. The staff have always been nice to all of us, doing their best to help us with any issue that could occur. The place is really clean, the food sounded delicious - and according to our son it was,
the songs, games and activities carried out were perfect for the correct development of our son's skills and certain members of the staff even became our friends. Our son really liked them and was happy to go there every day to see his friends and play with them along with his carers.
I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone. Your child will be in good hands at this nursery, no doubt.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.920)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.920) out of 10 for Little Garden The Hammersmith Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 7 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 4.720 for Little Garden The Hammersmith Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (62 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 82 Ratings = 4.72

  • 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 4.2 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Garden The Hammersmith Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 70 number of registered child places is 14. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 14 = 0.5

  • 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.
