"Our son had a wonderful experience at this nursery. He started at 4 months old and loved it as soon as he joined, creating a strong bond and trusting relationship. His head teacher Cristina was amazing with him from the start as well as all the other early year assistants and teachers. We loved that she spoke to him in Spanish (same as at home) and particularly that she set goals for him from the start such as exposing him to different textures, helping him develop strong neck and shoulder muscles by doing more tummy time, and eventually sitting up. In addition, all the staff is very good at communicating. The nursery uses the app famly to stay in touch with day-to-day queries and patterns (food/sleep/diaper changes) but also to give weekly updates on the group activities as well as personal child development. It's fantastic as it shows you how well your child is progressing and how much fun he is having. Montessori Garden Nursery is great at conducting activities for all ages, our son was able to contribute to all activities from the start (even to the smallest extent as he was the youngest around at first) which satisfied his curiosity and made him feel part of a team early on. The children go in the garden twice a day to take some fresh air, thanks to this I've really witnessed in my son a new appreciation of the outdoors. Moreover, as soon as our son started eating solids, he was able to be exposed to the wonderful dishes MGN's cook prepares. It developed his pallet and appreciation of different foods and flavors, as well as dexterity. He loved everything except for beetroot! Lastly, we really appreciate the daily reports at drop off as well as the parent-teacher talks and organized parents' events (mother's day breakfast, picnics etc). Overall a fantastic nursery with passionate and caring staff and management, which I truly recommend."

"Montessori was a great place for our daughter to grow, learn and play. Grace started nursery with absolutely no knowledge of English and became a real ''chatterbox'' thanks to all her amazing teachers. Friendly and lovely staff, perfect service and fabulous setting. I can’t thank you enough for all your efforts. Really happy that we’ve found you and we'll miss you a lot."

"The inside place of the nursery is the most unhygienic place that I saw in my life for human beings. I don't understand how some parents are given their children on that thing that its called Nursery and more they are saying Montessori. I hope the authorities close that place"

"My son spent 2.5 years at Belfield and he has loved his time here. The Nursery staff really are excellent in their care and in their methods in bringing out a child's natural aptitude for learning. Even during the age of Covid, all communications and service have been provided efficiently and thoughtfully and we can see how happy and capable the children are. Well done to the staff and carers, you have definitely made a positive difference in my child's early life stage!"

"Fantastic nursery. Our child enjoys going there, all the teachers really care about the children. Lots of activities, very inclusive, and great communication. When speaking with other parents, they only ever have good things to say about the nursery. We are so grateful for all the care and support our child has received."

"The day before my son was due to start the nursery, I received a call saying they could no longer take him. He had been registered for 9 months. This left me in a dire situation for my return to work as all other nurseries in the area are now full. I therefore do not recommend anyone register here in case this same thing happens to you. Other families have been affected by the same issue. It’s clearly an unreliable provider."

"I have sent both if my children here since babies and the staff have been fantastic. The work they do to teach children and prepare them for school is amazing. Nursery is always clean and organised. Staff always give a informative handover to each parent. Even during the pandemic I have still felt a good connection with the staff."

"We have sent both our children to Unity now; our youngest has just left. We looked at a number of nurseries in the area but Unity was the best one for us. From the first time we met Alex, we knew this was the best place for originally our son and we did not hesitate to send our daughter afterwards. One of the big differences we found between Unity and the other Montessoris/nurseries is that as Alex owns Unity and runs it, you can see her passion for the development of the children come through. Her warmth and caring attitude to the children was reassuring for my wife and I. Alex and her team have an excellent knowledge of how to develop the children's skills for learning, including the vertical learning aspect, from which both our children have benefited greatly. The main hall has a variety of "stations" for the children to learn and explore, keeping the children challenged every day. Alex and her staff are always responsive to our many questions. The settling-in period is well considered and benefits the children in the long term. Via the Montessori My Child platform, we are regularly informed about what skills our children has developed that week, what goals they have achieved and what we can do at home with them to reinforce what they have learnt at Unity. Both our children left Unity ready to start Reception. The focus from Unity on learning how to learn is evident. We would recommend Unity to anyone that is looking to send their child to a kind, caring, safe and nurturing environment where their child will flourish. Positive Responsiveness, Reliability, Quality, Professionalism, Value"
