My son went to this place for about 7-8 months, one of the reason for him going there (inspite of being one of the expensive nurseries in hounslow) is to improve his english skills. His English never improved! this left us with a not so satisfied position.
To add insult to injury, after my son left the nursery, with giving proper written 30 days notice, they do not want to return our deposit. The reason? we haven't collected the deposit for 30 days it seems! outrageous, they want to keep our hard-earned cash because we failed to collect it in 30 days :-(
In this 30 days, they haven't sent us a single reminder, email or post about this. Neither did they actually send us the cheque if they were worried about us not collecting it! They had both our mobile numbers, full postal address, also the full bank details, as they were collecting direct debit from us every month.
Although the real reason for not being able to collect the deposit is because of the wife getting hospitalized, which meant I was really struggling with 2 very small kids on my own and also trying to carry lunch/dinner to sick wife at the hospital. This is besides the point! no company can hold my hard-earned money for a reason as this ridiculous.
Now, when I try to call them, they just say that Sonia (Administrator) is not available, and when i visited them to speak to them, they just made me stand in the door and spoke to me in a very rude manner.
Absolutely appalling & rude behaviour.
AVOID THIS NURSERY AT ALL COSTS!, if they can treat parents this bad, not sure what they do to our kids when we are not around!
I will NEVER trust these people around my kids.
Thanks.
Update: 14th November 2012
Since my last review a lot has happened and here is a quick update.
Our deposit was returned very recently, after I was asked to share the confidential information about my wife's illness with the Manager at the nursery, and in spite of this, to my surprise, the manager decided that, she had to go through the details of illness and the dates of when the wife was in and out of hospital before issuing a refund of the deposit.
Also, Mrs.Sonya confirms that she is a Manager & Owner at this facility and not an Administrator.
I can still confirm that rudeness is the answer to any issues/questions you will have when your kid goes to this nursery. I personally would avoid them.
Thanks.
They had an amazing teacher named Ms. Hetal, she was amazing towards my son. Sadly, she resigned in the middle of school terms. But i will still recommend this nursery, the other teachers was amazing.
