    This daycare is AMAZING actually it’s by far the most OUTSTANDING daycare in Ilford! First off they carter to children that have special needs with the manager Danielle being the SENCO she is so engaged with the needs and development of the little people that you will not be disappointed by the amount of effort and work she puts into ensuring the children have all their needs met- being a parent of twin nonverbal autistic girls. The staff are so caring, gentle, and loving that they take every achievement as a celebration- they are so kind hearted that it made the last day before the summer break it was so sad and emotional that the girls would no longer see them. The place is BIG- they have a sensory corner, play role room with costumes so the kids can use their creativity, the outside play area has water play and climbing space as well and during summer mini pools and lots of running around and having fun all while being safe. All in all, if you are in Ilford area this is the ONLY TOP TIER daycare you would want to send your little ones too. Louiza, Danielle, Hadjila, Tasmina, Sarah and the other staff you are all wonderful and I am so very grateful that my daughters came to your daycare.

    We love sunflower Nursery. They offer a home away from home in a small nursery setting. The staff are wonderful and extremely attentive to all the kids. We like that kids from different ages get to play together and we think it has really helped our little one to advance very quickly. They have a lovely outdoor space and go on many day trips. They do lots of crafts, music, cooking, reading and play. We couldn’t recommend them more.
