We started at Leo's Den last year after trialling another local nursery first - we were very lucky to get a fairly last minute space. My 21-month-old daughter has loved it there, she can count to 10, sing the alphabet song (& many others) and is learning colours (and Spanish!). The food all seems quite healthy, they cater for her dietary requirements, and they seem to spend lots of time in the garden. They've been great at managing things whenever she's been unwell and the room staff and office staff are all really responsive and helpful whenever we need anything. She started in the baby room and has recently moved up to the toddler room - all the staff have been great, she looks forward to going every day and talks about the staff when she's not there. We get frequent updates about her development from her key worker and daily photos and videos. Just wish they'd get a better buggy door / drop off system, but would still 100% recommend!

At Leo's Den all practitioners are highly skilled and qualified. Everyone cares so much for our little one and he loves going to nursery. The activities are really engaging and there are plenty of them. Such great nursery, we made a great choice.

We are happy with the care our child received in the last 5 months. The response to queries have always been prompt. The activities at the nursery are varied and engaging. Our child really enjoys attending Leo's nursery!

Leo's Den is a fantastic place. They took such great care of our daughter in the Lion and then Cheetah room. She grew so much in her development including verbal skills, naming letters and social skills. They were integral to her potty training; very supportive and patient. They even took great care of her when she was in a walking boot following a fracture. The staff are attentive, creative, caring and communication is excellent. Highly recommend!

Our child has been going to Leo's Den for over a year and we couldn't be happier with it. The staff are super friendly and caring, the garden space is great and the special guests (Wild Fangs, Music Man etc.) really enrich the overall experience. Communication is just right and the staff take safeguarding seriously, which is obviously reassuring as a parent. Our child was a bit shy when they first started going but they've become so confident and sociable, which I do believe is in part due to the great experience they're having at Leo's Den. I would strongly recommend this nursery.

Our son loves going to Leo's! The team is so friendly and professional and you can see every day that he enjoys, learns and grows at this place. The culture day makes it also easy for parents to engage with each other and see who their child plays with each day. I can only recommend the nursery!

We have two children at Leo's Den and they are two little happy lions when on their way and when we pick them up! Very friendly staff with great communication with parents, both via the app and directly. Highly recommend.

The staff at the nursery is truly amazing, and our 3-year-old daughter has been incredibly happy there since she started at just 1 year old. She loves it so much that she even asks to go on weekends! She's always talking about her teachers and little friends, sharing all the fun activities and things she's learning. Seeing how much she enjoys her time there gives us great peace of mind. If she's happy, we're happy.

Leo's Den Nursery has become a second home to my child. She started in January, just before turning one, and has made so much progress. She went from being insecure and taking only 15-minute naps to now taking sometimes 2-hour naps. Recently, she has become very confident, singing songs and dancing, which she has learned from the teachers. She has a great routine now and always finishes all her food there. I can imagine she loves the activities there including outdoor water play and music man with a guitar! I love receiving photos and updates from the caring teachers, as well as checking in on her through the cameras whenever I miss her while at work. It may not be the fanciest nursery in this area, but the staff there provide a perfect environment for the children. I highly recommend this nursery to other families!

Our first daughter joined Leo's Den in January 2023 and the experience to date has been great. To start, it's an independent nursery and that makes a difference in terms of culture and relationship with families. Rates are reasonable (for London, that is), opening hours are very convenient, and it is open year-round. I've always had a positive view of the staff and how the nursery is managed, generally. Facilities are pretty good, for a central London location, and include an open-air patio which guarantees some outdoor play time every single day of the year. Kids seem very happy, and the same for parents. We have just registered our second daughter for the July 2025 intake. If you are looking for a nursery in the area, I would recommend you visit Leo's Den.

My daughter has been at Leo's for over a year now and absolutely loves it. It has such a family feel, amazing fun and caring staff and all the activities, fun and lots of learning! They really care about the children. And you get regular updates. A great bonus with the outside area too. I'd recommend this nursery to anyone. Thank you Leo's Den you are fantastic!

Our daughter has attended Leo's Den since she was 1 year old, and in the last 2.5 years, we had to see how she developed many skills, including social interaction, language and emotion. The staff in every room are loving and genuinely caring for the children, communication is always clear at pick up and/or through their app. They offer children a variety of activities including trips to the local park, library and playground. The nursery has its own big outdoor area and a terrace, so they can offer outside playing activities every day. They also use an app where they upload regularly throughout the day what the child did, and send daily posters with pictures about what was done during the day by the class. The app is also used to share useful info from management regarding local community/health information. Overall we couldn't be happier that we chose Leo's for our daughter, and we always recommend this gem to all our friends looking for a nursery.

Leo's Den has been a wonderful place for our daughter to start nursery. The staff are all so welcoming and genuinely caring of the children, from the admin staff to those working in the room with the babies. They even called to check in on us when our daughter was ill in hospital. So thoughtful.

My son has gone to Leo's Den for over a year. It took him a while to settle as he'd got used to his previous nursery. The staff are welcoming and kind. My son's confidence has grown enormously with the help and encouragement of the staff at Leo's. They do a varied selection of tasks every day and get lots of outdoor time too. I would recommend this nursery.

It's the perfect environment and the perfect situation you would want for your child when you cannot take care of them. You can rest assured your children will be well looked after at Leo's Den Nursery!

Our nearly 3-year-old son is doing well in Leo’s Den and is flourishing with new skills and experiences. We are benefiting from the flexibility of drop-offs and pick-ups. Our boy is learning about new foods which is great.
