Excel Childcare - Forest Hill Rd - experiences please?

[Suse365]

Hi

Does anyone have any up to date experience of Excel nursery on Forest Hill road. I visited today for my son who will be 11 months when he starts in May and it seemed friendly and well organised. So much better than it looks like from the outside. Certainly not any worse than My Favourite Nursery who have let us down and say they can only MAYBE find a place for us in September even though we?ve been on the waiting list since June. It?s not just about money but at ?300 less a month than my next waitlist option- it does seem worth considering.

Many thanks in advance for any advice :-)

HI Suse. Did you go for Excel in the end? We were quite impressed with it. Would love to know your thoughts.
