My son started in Feb 2023 when he was a year old and has been there for a total of 7 months but we are now relocating to a new area so have to change nurseries. We have been so happy with Purple Jay - my son loves it and has flourished in his time there - he runs in! There have been changes in manager since we were there which I was initially concerned about but I saw no inconsistency in the care my son received during those transitions and was impressed with the communication from the nursery throughout. They send regular photos and updates of what he is doing and I love that rather than being dropped at the door, parents are welcome to come right into the rooms/garden etc. to drop off or collect. This meant we got to know the staff and his peers really well and could see for ourselves how content and engaged he was with activities, staff and other kids when he's there. The Sparrows team are amazing and the whole nursery is a lovely warm and cheerful place with the most amazing garden.

My son loves it there! The staff are really motivated to share/play/teach to the little ones. My son started there at about 2 years. He is 3.5 now and he's really happy! The difference there is really: The Garden! Which is amazing for the kids. The staff, from the teachers to the cook/chef to the assistant. Everyone seems to like it there. The activity, every day they found new ideas to share and interact with the kids.

Our son has attended Purple Jay for the last 15-months (since he was age 13-months), and it’s been such a wonderful experience, despite all the challenges of Covid. The nursery has a really friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and the staff are all lovely and so caring. All the children have access to the big garden at different points throughout the day, and they have a wide range of quality and stimulating resources to play with indoors and outside, including a construction area, mud garden and water play area. I’m always amazed at the different activities they do as well. The team have been amazing and adapted so well during Covid - the fact the nursery has never had to close and our son hasn’t caught anything other than the usual coughs and colds says it all. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Purple Jay Peckham Rye, as I really believe it’s the best nursery in the area. We can’t thank the team there enough for helping our son grow into a happy, confident and curious little boy!

We’re really very happy that we chose the nursery. The staff are great, the boys seem to really enjoy themselves and the variety of activities is great for their development. Communication is also very good and always appreciated.

Both my daughter and I have had a very positive experience at Purple Jay. The staff are very friendly and have a genuine interest in the children and their well being. Communication is very good, with staff providing answers to my questions soon after I contact them. Although my daughter has a key staff member allocated to her, all of the staff know each child well, which works well as my daughter as she is very comfortable approaching all staff members. I would recommend this nursery.

Our children have been at Purple Jay Peckham Rye for the last 18 months. It is a nurturing environment with caring staff and feels very much like a home. All the staff we have met - from the nursery cook to the manager have been welcoming and seem to know each child very well. The children do a broad range of activities and they learn important life skills (eg. sharing and being friends). A team member who works in the Puffins room, in particular, is incredible - so enthusiastic, warm and caring. It is hard to comment on some aspects of what the nursery is like inside (eg. facilities) as we have never been inside most of the nursery due to understandable covid restrictions.

Purple Jay Peckham Rye is a good nursery. Unfortunately given lockdown, it has been impossible to see what goes on inside but both our children really enjoy their time there and the staff are really nice and helpful. It would be great to see a few more activity updates through the app, but the variety of activities and teaching seem to be really good. Overall, very much recommended.

Our son really enjoys his time at nursery and has made good friends. The level of care he receives is excellent. The outdoor space is especially great, and he enjoys all the physical activities on offer.

Over the past 6 years we have sent both our children to this nursery and have only the very best things to say about the staff and they way they look after the children. They have a genuine interest in the kids as individuals and have always been so warm, welcoming and receptive to whatever feedback we may have had. A great experience!

We have sent both our children to Purple Jay Peckham Rye and they have been very happy and have made great friends. It is a very friendly, well-equipped nursery with lovely staff and a great garden and facilities. There are many efforts to include parents in their children’s daily activities and also to keep them up to date with their continued development. We would definitely recommend Purple Jay.

My son has loved his time at Purple Jay Peckham, and we as parents have also been delighted with the staff and the facilities. Each member of staff has cared deeply about their role and it seems that Purple Jay retain a high number of staff. We can only assume this is because of the quality of the nursery and the environment created there. We could not have wishes for more from the manager and the team. We will miss them all.
