Very curious about your interaction with Oak Tree. I moved my toddler to Oak Tree last year and my little one just joined her a couple of months ago. I must admit that based on my experience, the move to Oak Tree remains one of the best decisions I have made in the last year.


The manager and the staff have provided and continue to provide a lovely 'home away from home' for my girls so I feel it is only fair that I put an alternative view on here. I think we ought to be careful about making such sweeping statements about peoples' businesses on here and where we feel the need to do so, it's only fair that we provide clearer feedback. Equally, it'll be great to see more positive feedback on/recommendations of local businesses and sharing of the nicer experiences.


Finding the right setting for your child is almost always a challenge for parents and what works for one, doesn't necessarily work for others hence the recommendation that parents look into a few options before making a decision. I do hope you find what works for you.


All the best,

BC

I contacted Little Fingerprints Nursery twice in the last 2 months and I haven't heard from them. The website is terrible as well and doesn't give any sort of information. A couple of friends that moved their kids to a different nursery told me they don't have an admin team and not very well organized.

A friend's daughter goes to Oak Tree and she is very happy there. She's been going there for nearly 2 years, even after the family moved a bit further away.

Another vote of support for Oak Tree. My son has been there nearly two years and is very happy and thriving there. The staff are young but very caring and warm. He loves them. I know that people have different experiences of different nurseries but we are very happy with our decision to send him there.

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway. 
    • Lots of lovely lilac shrubs in flower at the moment. Would anyone consider giving me a cutting? It would involve digging out a basal off shoot, roots and all. I'd love one for my new garden but I'm so broke that I have to fill it with plants the slow way!
    • You are welcome to have mine for free. I was just about to post! Three panels - 6ft by 5ft - weathered/natural on one side and painted brown on the other.
