Nursery and Preschool Purley | Fennies Nursery

"My daughter works here, she passed out at work twice but had to continue with her working day, has been refused her medication and is bullied on a daily basis. From what she says on how the nursery is run its a disgrace and should be closed down. Every single day she phones and comes home crying upset and stressed out. She is clearly being picked on and victimized by these bullies.... Do not apply for a job here nor send your child to be cared for here. When my daughter showed symptoms of corona virus she still had to work without being asked to do a test, leaving the children open to infection. Ofsted will also be getting a report. Nappy and dietary breaches happen often also."

"This nursery should be avoided at all costs. It has an extremely high staff turning over and in less than 2 years it has had 5 managers. A lot of the staff seem to be young and unqualified. It was good up until Karen the assistant manager left in September 2022. But has since taken a nose dive. They claim to cook fresh meals for the children; however, they were caught on several occasions buying ready meals (high in salt) and sandwiches for the children from a local supermarket. WITHOUT informing parents. So don't be sold on them creating so called 'fresh meals' for children. Also, I would be weary of sending your child here if they have an allergy. Just check the recent OFSTED reports 'concerns action needed' dated 14th October 2022 and 19th December 2022. This nursery is overpriced, yet barely doing any good activities with the children. With children currently leaving in droves. Lastly, the fact that this nursery was downgraded from Outstanding to Good in June 2021 after concerns were raised to OFSTED by a parent, yet they still have an outstanding plaque outside the nursery. Screams the false information they will feed you. Beware!"

"Fennies Purley is an excellent nursery. Our daughter has attended since she was very small and the staff have always been very professional and caring. The level of communication with parents is excellent and our daughter has learnt so much. We have had excellent management but particularly for the last year the deputy manager Karen has been brilliant. Any issues or queries are dealt with straight away. Thank you guys for looking after our girl so well."

"My daughter absolutely loves her time at Fennies and as a first time mum going back to work, I couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving her in Jaimie, Lucy and all the staff’s amazing care. Everyone at Fennies Purley (especially my daughter’s key person) have been so kind and smiley, it makes me want to spend the day there rather than going to work!! We visited a few local nurseries but Fennies Purley was the front runner from within minutes of our initial visit. They have high standards and genuinely care for all the children. They have removed the stress of going back to work after maternity and leaving my daughter for long hours because I know she really enjoys her time there and learns something new every day!"

"We are very happy with this Fennies. Our daughter absolutely loves it and often doesn't want to leave. Her key persons have all been lovely, very supportive and instrumental to her developmental milestones. They are more expensive than some of the other nurseries we originally visited, but we have found the staff to be very attentive to her needs and strive to make sure she is developing well."
