Swinbrook House Nursery School is a special place for our family. My daughter attended for three years, made wonderful friends she still keeps and moved on to a fantastic school, thriving both academically and personally. The nurturing environment has left a lasting impact on her.
My middle child has
been at Swinbrook since he was a baby, and it truly feels like a home away from home. The teachers are caring, nurturing, and committed, ensuring each child feels valued. They focus on personal well-being, academics, and fun activities, making every day engaging and supportive.
We have already enrolled our youngest to start in the spring. While the school is not large (as is often the case in central London), it is an integral part of the Marylebone community and makes the most of its surroundings the children to the playground, Parks, and regular outings that contribute to their development and well-being.
We couldn't be happier with Swinbrook House Nursery School.

My son joined the nursery two years ago and honestly, I can say that he has learnt so much, he comes home with new skills every day. The staff provide so much focus on each and every child which is amazing. My son wakes up every day and looks forward to going to nursery.

Both my kids have been attending Swinbrook since 18 months old and love it. The staff are incredibly nurturing and caring, it is just a lovely happy nursery with a family feel. There is no outside space but the kids take regular walks to nearby parks if weather permits. For the bigger class, lots of
planned outings as well to museums, local libraries, train stations, zoo, Chinatown etc.. to broaden their view of the world. I have seen so much growth and confidence in my children since joining. Could not be happier.

Reply from Stephanie Charles, Head of Nursery at Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone

Thank you for your wonderful review! It's so lovely to hear how much your children have enjoyed their time at Swinbrook House and how they've grown in confidence.

We truly appreciate your kind words and are so happy to have been part of their journey!

Such a lovely, nurturing nursery. We loved that it was small and personal. The teachers understood our children's needs and how best to teach and support them to reach their full potential. Homely environment and such fun learning everyday. We loved seeing the photos and updates. There was always also
great communication either verbal or through the app so we always felt connected. Just a fantastic little nursery and we miss it very much.

Our 2-year-old daughter has been attending Swinbrook Nursery for almost a year now. I would particularly like to highlight the staff in this review: I always feel comfortable leaving our daughter there. I have never experienced such a unique combination of professionalism and warmth from the teachers.
Our daughter looks forward to the day every morning and constantly lists the names of the teachers. I see Swinbrook Nursery as a very "warm place" in "cold London." We couldn't have imagined a better place for our daughter. Thank you!

We absolutely loved Swinbrook House! Both our girls were there throughout their nursery years, and it truly was a magical time. The staff was amazing and showed genuine care and affection for the girls. We particularly like the fact that it is a small nursery, which means that all staff will be very
close with your child, and the children spend time with both younger and older peers, whilst having dedicated time for age-appropriate activities. There is no dedicated outdoor space, but the teachers do a fantastic job of taking the children to the park every day. The last year of nursery provided a great preparation for school start, and both girls are flourishing in their school environment. We would strongly recommend Swinbrook!

Reply from Viv Thompson, Director at Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone

Thank you so much for reiterating how wonderful Swinbrook is - we are so proud of this very special family-orientated nursery!

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Our two-year-old daughter has been at Swinbrook House for about 12 months, and we could not be happier with the nursery.
She comes home happy every day, singing and dancing and repeating what she learned during the day. On weekends, she is disappointed that she cannot go and asks to see photos from
the past week. She has and continues to blossom ever since she started at Swinbrook House (in terms of speech, social skills, and confidence).
Management and the teachers are wonderful and nourish the little ones' minds with a wide range of creative and sportive activities. Their commitment and warmth every day are truly outstanding. Moreover, we are always up to date with our daughter's development, learning and activities via their daily and weekly reports.
The food they provide seems to be delicious and is devoured by our daughter (which is rarely the case at home).
We cannot recommend them highly enough!

Reply from Viv Thompson, Director at Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone

What a great review and I very much agree, thank you and I am so pleased your little one loves her nursery!

Our daughter spent 2 years and a half at Swinbrook Nursery. She developed very well and by 4 years old was ready to attend Reception. She's made friends and went to the park or playground almost everyday. The food is very good.
Highly recommended!

Thank you for the review - I hope your daughter is thriving in Reception after her educational foundation at Swinbrook.

My two young boys have attended Swinbrook, and both occasions they had a wonderful experience from settling right through to pre-reception. The atmosphere is calm and caring, understanding their needs as they change and become independent little learners. Teachers were very engaged with both children
and the family as a whole. Each time we were sad to leave a lovely nursery and teachers.

Reply from Stephanie Charles, Head of Nursery at Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so happy to hear that both of your boys had such a positive experience at Swinbrook House. It's wonderful to know they felt supported in their journey to becoming independent learners.

My experience in Swinbrook House was excellent. Both of my children loved it, we relocated abroad and my eldest still talks to me about the staff and friends he made in the nursery. Amazing staff with a caring mindset. Thank you for these 3 years! We miss you!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 10 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 4.891 for Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone is calculated as follows: ( (108 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 119 Ratings = 4.891

  • 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 Swinbrook House Nursery School Marylebone is based on 10 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 23 number of registered child places is 4.6, which has been reached with 10 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.
