Starting school is a big milestone, for both children and parents. At Monkey Puzzle West Kensington, and across all our Monkey Puzzle nursery Preschools, we understand how important these early years are in building the foundations for confident, happy learners.

As an Early Years Quality Manager, my role is to ensure that every child at Monkey Puzzle receives the best possible start to their educational journey.

Deciding whether to transition your child from a nursery to a preschool at a local school is a choice many parents face as their little ones approach school age. While the prospect of moving over to a school earlier can be exciting, it’s important to consider the benefits of staying in nursery for a bit longer.
