Thank.you very much for the honest review given to us.our priority is to provide all children the best quality care and education. This gives us fulfilment and joy.
I would like to thank Miss Grace and all her staff working at Amazing Grace Nursery for their commitment, love and support towards my lovely son. At Amazing grace, we are feeling like at home and my son is always happy to go to the nursery when I drop him and when picking him up. I chose this nursery because the way they are treating my child with love and consideration makes him progress and be more confident. I notice his development in all the ways and by the grace of God, he has made lot of progress in terms of speaking, interaction with others, discipline, education, and so on. Even my son enjoys the food they offer him and he is very satisfied. I definitely recommend this nursery to everyone because the staff is really dedicated to the children and especially to my son. God bless Grace and all the staff!!!

During the long-term holiday, I got a new job in which I needed to go on a day training for two weeks, with no one at home to care for my son because my husband was also in the day. I contacted Amazing Grace Nursery, and they came to my rescue, for two weeks my son attended the nursery during the holiday and he was well and properly taken care of. My son who is autistic was always happy to go to the nursery, he was always happy to relate with other children, was fed well and I was always updated with all his activities in the nursery. I was so happy and relaxed to know that they did a thorough job with instructions followed. Thank you Amazing Grace...it was an Amazing experience.

Thank you so much for your honest review. We will keep to high quality service.
My daughter used to be very shy when it came to trying to speak or to interact with other kids her age as she is mainly around adults at home. I could see her becoming confident and starting to attempt to speak from day one in the nursery. After half an year in Amazing Grace nursery she knows how to communicate with other kids, she is forming proper sentences and is eager to try saying new words.
Thanks to the nursery's creative programmes she also started singing, dancing, and is even attempting to read.
I love how the staff is encouraging my baby to be herself and to explore new creative options and how friendly they are with the kids. Also I love the daily feedback and pictures they are providing with all the activities the kids have involved in during the day.

I am very happy with this nursery. Being a primary school teacher myself, I found it hard to find the right setting for my babies as I have some knowledge as to how a suitable setting should be. I visited several different settings in the area but was really impressed with the provision Amazing Grace offers. Firstly I like the open hall space, nice and airy and allows for more eyes on the kids. I also have a phobia of stairs and little ones so this was one tick for me. The second tick for me was seeing how friendly the staff were to the children. The staff really do care about the children and this allows the children to flourish! I visited lots of nurseries in the summer term and it was a very hot week... and this nursery was the o ly one I saw where a water tray activity was being used. This might sound bonkers but I know that some EYFS settings dont really like water play so when I saw this I just knew this was the right place for me. I love the themed learning that they do and the exciting and creative activities they do. Both of my kids are making excellent progress since they have started only 3 months ago! I have to say that the reading provision is very good also. My eldest just loves talking about the books she reads at nursery. I love that the staff read to my children and promote that love for reading also.
I love how easy the drop offs and pick ups are. My children are always greeted at the door by a friendly face and the staff always have time to talk to me. I also love that the children are coated and have clean nappies when I pick them up which helps me get home more quickly and not need to worry about changing nappies when I get in.
The feedback is always really helpful when the children are handed over and I love hearing about how they got on during the day. The staff are also very good at keeping me informed and I just love the daily photos that I get to see when I am at work... it makes my day seeing pictures of them doing wonderful things. The communication book is also very handy as I can see what they have eaten, how much they have had to drink, when they slept and for how long and when they had their nappy changed.
Amazing Grace allow for all the areas of learning to be accessed. I just love the messy play and water play activities that they set up. My youngest is only one but everyday she comes home singing the songs she has learnt at nursery and her language and understanding of language is amazing since she has been there.
I am very happy with my choice of nursery. The staff are happy to be there, friendly and I just know that my children are being cared for as a unique child. They really get to know my children well and know their strengths and weaknesses. A great team of staff! Great facilities! The food always looks tasty! The manager is very passionate and approachable and very good at leading her team. I am super happy with Amazing Grace and would be happy to recommend this nursery! Thank you Amazing GRace and keep up the excellent work!

My son started amazing grace nursery 2 moths ago he is 2.5 and he was non verbal and I’m proud to say he is now talking every day he is saying new words I was sceptical of sending my son to nursery after I had a bad experience with his last nursery but I’m glad I went with it as it’s the best thing I have done for him by sends him to amazing grace he is so happy the stuff are great and supportive the place is clean and the manager is amazing. The day I went to view the nursery I felt it right away that my son would be taken care of it is like home away from home. The facilities are good beautiful garden and all the equipment for the little ones to learn and play I am excited for my daughter to join her brother soon. Thank you to the staff at amazing Grace

Not only is Amazing Grace and the team always so welcoming, happy and supportive of my sons learning.
The nursery is huge with a great variety of playing and learning equipment. This is the most flexible nursery I was able to find in the area and I’m so grateful I found it. My son has only been attending since Sept 2020 and the amount he has learnt in 6 weeks makes me so proud. I was unable to get him to show any interest in learning but already he now knows his alphabet, he can count better, he knows the days of the week, He is singing nursery rhymes, made lots of new friends and his confidence is booming. He goes into school with a little dance at the doors musical bell each morning which we all love. He comes out happy and also asks to go on the weekends. I receive daily updates and he is well feed. I’m a few weeks my baby will be joining him when I return to work and I feel confident she will be well cared for while here. I would 100% recommend this nursery. It really is an amazing setting.

My daughter started Amazing Grace two weeks ago and its like she has been there for years. The staff are very friendly/informative and have good measures in place during these uncertain times.
I am so glad I chose to let my daughter go here, she is excited in the mornings and when I pick her up she always has the biggest smile.
I am happy and comfortable with the service this nursery provides.

Since joining Amazing Grace Nursery my Son has developed in so many ways. He is more confident and balanced, and looks forward to going into Nursery everyday.
Our Son has had the most amazing time at Amazing Grace Nursery. He has lots of fun, developing quickly, and refuses going home on some days.
The Staff are very amazing and passionate about their Job. They are also very respectful.
The Nursery itself is a fun and bright environment, and I believe it provides the backdrop for more effective learning.
My Son loves the teachers very much and the teachers are very approachable to parents.
I am very happy with the teaching he has received, as well as his learning experience.
The Staff are very experienced teachers who are caring and professional and whom the children respond well to.
A very caring environment, including encouraging them to eat all their lunch!"
I am very impressed that a 3-year old knows how to sing and dance to a music tune and learn simple words symmetrically.
No Nursery like Amazing Grace Nursery in Croydon👍

When i first saw the negative review i was cautious however i decided to book a viewing as there were other great reviews and i understood you cant judge a nursrey by one negative review or ofsted report as it is a new nursrey.
Grace was so warm and welcoming and my children are very happy. The nursrey does not reflect the negative review at all.
Such a wonderful and warm place for children to develop and grow with wonderful staff members who are very attentive to the needs of the children.
I have now gone back to work and my mind is at peace knowing my children are in a safe and loving environment.
The nursrey is very affordable which has really helped me.
Well done to Grace and her team
Brilliant nursrey.

Been bringing my children to Grace for 4 years have no complaints! Lovely nursery, organised staff.
As a nurse I needed someone that could work with my unsociable hours. She was so flexible, and even had my kiddies overnight when I had night shifts. Clean and open plan setting, lots of toys, professional staff and hot school dinners. Grace has actually been brilliant with the kids (age 5 & 1). I would highly recommend Grace and the team.

No puns intended but this nursery really is amazing.
The staff are all qualified and professional. They provide excellent care for the children and prepare fresh and healthy food daily on site for the children.
The facilities are clean and well maintained The rooms have many different areas for play engaging the children of different ages.
They also have a play area outside which is great when they have nice weather. Also they have trips in the summer months and numerous events so you can connect and get to know other parents.
The services available are numerous you just have to ask. Whether it be stay and play, nursery, breakfast club or afterschool club it's available upon request. My children love going there and are very happy. The atmosphere is very positive and the staff are always smiling and very welcoming.
All events are published in the newsletter so you feel up to date with everything.
So what are you waiting for? If you need child care I highly recommend Amazing Grace.

This nursery has been graded as INADEQUATE by Ofsted. You can view the Ofsted inspection report here: https://reports.ofsted.gov.uk/provider/16/EY556716
By far the worst nursery I have ever dealt with. When my daughter first joined, she came in leaps and bounds, but it seems like Grace had lost control of her business as noone organised anything, and my daughters progressed slowed A LOT.
I was left outside on numerous occasions for long periods of time waiting to pick up my daughter.
I gave Grace chance after chance to fix this, but instead of opening her eyes, she told me to "find a white man's nursery". If it wasn't for me helping my daughter outside of her care then she would not have been as prepared as she has been for reception.

Thank you Ala!!
My daughter started going to Amazing Grace (Stockwell branch) from 5 months. She is now 4 years old and still goes there! Never have I come across someone who is so passionate about her children. Grace and her staff provide such a loving, warm and fun environment for my daughter. I've recommended so many people to her and all have been so happy with the service provided. Each childs care are all bespoke and tailored to meet all there needs. So so happy with the years of loyalty, love and care are has given my daughter. Now I have a little boy to add to her ever growing family of children. Thank you Grace, you and your staff really are phenomenal!!
