Overall very positive experience with Boys & Girls Nursery. My daughter attended for 4 years and have been through all the stages - babies, toddlers and two years in pre-school. The nursery staff are amazing, very caring and take great care of the children. The nursery is clean and tidy. The food, being prepared onsite daily, is always freshly cooked and my daughter absolutely loves eating there. They always find great new and exciting fun activities for the children, bring outside vendors to make their days fun and have something new almost every week. They provide daily updates through the Blossom App which is very reassuring for the parents. They also invest a lot of time in preparing the children for school and making sure they cover the basic learning appropriate for their age. I would highly recommend Boys & Girls Nursery!

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It's wonderful to read you are happy with your experience at Boys & Girls Nursery and that you would recommend us. We will pass your lovely comments onto the team.
The staff are lovely. Very caring and there are lots of cuddles available if she needs one.
It's giving our daughter a great grounding, educationally and socially.
We can't praise the food enough. My daughter has always been a picky eater, but she comes away on Pre-School days having eaten seconds.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's lovely to read your daughter enjoys her time with us. We will pass your comments onto the team, and especially our wonderful nursery chef!
Excellent nursery and wonderful staff. My son joined the nursery when he was almost 6 months. The baby room is kept clean with a no shoe policy. The changing room is also very clean and organized with a separate basket for each of the kids. The premise is very secure with cameras inside the nursery and the main door always locked. The staff are very friendly and caring. They discuss your kid’s development and what areas you want to work on. When my kid joined he needed more tummy time so they made sure to encourage him do that. They are also very accommodating. My kid has eczema and needs moisturizing often so they do that every time they change his nappy. They also provide medication with a prescription. They make sure my kid has healthy meals and snacks throughout the day. They keep you informed of your kid’s development and often take loads of very nice photos and provide them so you can see what your little one has been up to. They schedule activities like painting, book reading, and nursery rhymes singing and take the kids to the outdoor playground when the weather is nice. I would definitely recommend this nursery and the wonderful staff in it.

Thank you for leaving a review Tamara. It's great to hear you are happy with your experience of Boys & Girls Nursery. We will pass your lovely comments onto the team.
I could not fault Boys & Girls Nursery or recommend them enough! One of the hardest things I’ve done as a parent is to leave my babies and go back to work. I couldn’t thank the amazing, friendly, caring and loving staff enough at Boys & Girls who have helped me do this twice in the past 4 years! They support us as parents just as much as they do the children and some days I don’t know what I would do without them! My daughter started in the baby room when she was 8 months and is now in Pre School and absolutely loves nursery and the staff (her friends) and is always asking when she is there next. My son started when he was 7 months and is now in toddlers and also loves his time there. I have no doubt that their development and social skills are as good as they are today because of the care and attention the staff dedicate to the children everyday! Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for my family which you are now apart of 😊 x

Thank you for your lovely review! We're glad to hear your son and daughter love their time in Toddlers and Pre-School! We shall pass your lovely comments onto the team!
My 3 year old has been at Boys and Girls Watford since turning 3 months old.He loves the team and in particular some staff members who have been there as long as him!
I am happy to leave him in the morning knowing he is completely safe and happy. A big positive point for me is the food, cooked from scratch, on site. I know he is eating healthily and he has the opportunity to try foods he otherwise might not have at his age. He especially likes the bean curry!
He is in the Pre-School room now and loves his routine there, he even has french lessons! I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to other parents who are seeking childcare. We will be sad to say goodbye when he leaves for School next year, in fact I am sure we will keep in touch with some of the staff!

Thank you for your review! It's lovely to read that your son has enjoyed his time with us so far. We will pass your kind comments onto the team and of course our wonderful Chef!
My son started at Boys & Girls Nursery in 2012 until he went to school, so it was an easy decision to send my daughter there in 2018. My daughter waves me off at the beginning of her day and goes straight off to play or for a cuddle. The staff are very friendly and are always coming up with fabulous activities (most recently princess and pirate day to support a local charity) her learning journal is always packed with lovely photos and observations showing the staff really do care about her development! The food is nutritious and my daughter always has seconds (the chef is the same chef who prepared my son's lunch too) The newly refurbished garden is a plus! I'm am more than happy with my experience with Boys & Girls nursery! Keep up the good work!

My daughter has been with the nursery since last summer and loves it everyday she is there. The staff are always welcoming and have a personable approach. My daughter often comes home with artwork and photos, which is nice. The food is also great, and very well balanced.

My little boy has been with boys and girls Watford for 14months now, starting in baby room and recently moving to toddlers. I can honestly say he has enjoyed every moment here. The team have been exceptional and I cannot thank them enough for helping him to settle and contributing to the happy outgoing boy he is today. They have gone above and beyond all expectations I had of a nursery and i couldn't be happier with our experience here.

I'd highly recommend the nursery. My daughter had been there for two and half years and I cannot thank the staff enough for everything they have done in terms of my daughter's development. She enjoyed every day at the nursery and felt loved and safe.
It's in a good location as has bus and train links close by and easy access for cars.
They do lots of extra activities and lots of baking for the kids to take home.
Well done Boys and Girls Nursery!

My daughter has attended Boys and Girls Nursery Watford since she was 18 months and is about to leave to start school reception. The staff at the nursery are truly fantastic. Nothing is too much trouble. Everyone who works there is always cheerful, welcoming and full of energy and enthusiasm.
So much effort goes into providing a wealth of stimulating, fun and exciting activities at all times and the staff are great at interacting with the children.
Healthy, tasty meals are made on site by their wonderful cook. My daughter eats so well there.
The outside space is small but they make fantastic use of it and the children play outside regularly throughout the day.
My daughter was slow to take to potty training and I started to think maybe we should start putting a bit of pressure on her to start but the staff were very relaxed about it and more than happy to take things at her pace and reassured me. It would have been far more convenient for them for her to be out of nappies quicker but her needs always came first. Sure enough she got there happily herself in the end without any trauma. That's just one example of how the nursery always puts the child first.

I have had 2 children at Boys & Girls Watford over the last 7 years & have been very pleased with the care they give. It is now 3 weeks till my daughter leaves the nursery & we have to say goodbye, already feeling emotional!
They have always been reassuring if my children had a wobble at drop off, the staff are very friendly & smiling all the time. The activities they do are varied & far better than any we do at home, letting the children have fun whilst learning at the same time.

Boys and Girls Nursery Watford have been a great nursery for my little girl. The transition from at home mummy to going back to work has been stress free with support and care Boys and Girls have provided for my daughter. My daughter bounds in every day exciting to see staff and children and she is developing into a lovely little girls with little added developmental stages that she has picked up at nursery. Some days she just doesn't want to come home.

My son has been cared for by Stanmore Boys and Girls since he was around seven months old and he is now three!
It's an Excellent nursery, can't fault it. My son enjoys his time there and is well stimulated through fun activities, cooking, play, learning sessions, languages, dance etc, etc, etc.
You build up a good rapport with ALL the staff and they support any of your endeavours i.e potty training, learning numbers/letters, teeth brushing.
They are also open to any concerns one might have along the way and do the best to rectify any issues.
It's just a fab nursery, but my son leaves this year. His foundation years at Boys and Girls will be a great catalyst for his next stage of life when starting school.
