We couldn't be happier with Monkey Puzzle Regents Terrace. The staff are fully invested in my daughter's happiness and she loves going to nursery every day. Staff are bright, loving and professional. Communication with parents is excellent and we work together to support my daughter

Really great nursery. We visited a few nurseries and they all were awful in my opinion. But Monkey Puzzle set my mind right at ease. If there is ever a question they will answer. Very good feedback every day. Very happy with my choice of nursery.

It is the best nursery ever. My daughter really loves Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery. She loves everything that happens there. She loves the teachers, food and activities. She doesn't know English but she is still comfortable there. I feel at ease when she is there and I can trust the nursery.

🏖️Summer holidays☀️

The children have been broadening their holiday experiences while exploring the wonders of the beach. As they discovered shells, they've also enhanced their mathematical understanding, while the younger ones have developed their gross motor skills by digging in the sand. They even created their own airport and tickets, embarking on exciting journeys to far-off countries! ✈️
