Zikora Day Nursery and Preschool

"We enrolled our 2 yr old daughter to Zikora when we moved into the area and we've been thoroughly impressed and forever grateful to the fantastic Zikora team. We're gutted to be moving, as we'll be hard pressed to find another nursery like them. They have created a wonderful, holistic, and conducive environment where children are not only taught numbers, letters, and motor skills, but also how to be kind and caring as to one another, looking out for the younger groups when they have combine play. I love it when my daughter came home telling me this older child helped her tie her apron, another older child shared the toys he was playing and now she's one of the older children and it's her turn to be kind to the younger ones. They have very detailed and in-depth learning programs for each age group and beautifully logged experiences and photographs of my child. Reading each log always brings a smile to my face. The Zikora team is always thinking up of new experiences to add fun to learning. They recently put an indoor play "bus" together and even created a busstop, bus passes with their photos etc and the children take turns to drive and be passengers. Community wise, the parents I've met have been super friendly and caring of both thw nursery and each other. Best choice we've made. And we're going to miss everyone."

"My son attended Zikora from the age of 8.5 months for around one year and it was such a great experience. The nursery is extremely good value, even though it seems to be more spacious and have better facilities than other nurseries in the area. Additionally, it has very long opening hours which is very helpful for working parents. Children are able to participate in a wide variety of activities even from a very young age. I really appreciated Mohammed's enthusiasm and dedication, he is very passionate about his work and always coming up with new creative ideas to stimulate and develop the children. The rest of the team are great as well, always cheerful and giving some feedback about how the day went. I always felt well informed about what my son was doing while he was there, and how he was developing. I am very glad we chose Zikora and would definitely recommend it to other parents looking in the area."

"Our daughter has been attending the baby room at Zikora Day Nursery and the standard of care, since day one, has been fantastic. The team in the baby room really get to know the children and offer each one of them their own individual level of care, with a firm understanding of what’s required to engage with them and subsequently help them develop and grow. It’s very clear how fond the children are of the staff, and there’s an obvious bond between them all, which is incredibly heartening to see. Because of this, our daughter looks forward to going to nursery each day, and comes home with a smile on her face. Since starting at Zikora, we have seen her social skills and personality develop so much, and she has blossomed in other areas as well - we can only recommend them to other parents."

"My DS went to Zikora at 13 months and stayed there until 2.7 yo, when we moved out of London. I am very grateful for the care he received there. He has learned how to count, recite the alphabet, and sing many songs. In the nursery children learn to plant flowers and vegetables, then see them grow and sometimes make a dinner from them! It’s amazing! I don’t know any nursery in East London which does this. My son comes from the nursery and starts to take off and put on his shoes and coat by himself! The manager Mohammed is very dedicated and strives to provide new interesting and educational activities such as pottery and wood work. The staff who looks after kids are fantastic and very supportive. They suggested for a long time I start to potty train DS, which I had thought him too young for, but thankfully I took their advise and with their support he is now fully trained (except for his nightly sleep). I would definitely recommend Zikora Day Nursery to everyone who wants good care and great development for their child while they work."
