The Same Exceptional Snowflakes Standards in Grand Union Village

Uncomprimising Safety As A Culture

Safety is the foundation of everything we do. Every member of our team undergoes enhanced DBS checks and rigorous safeguarding training, creating a culture of openness where your child’s welfare always comes first.

Safety Means Transparency

At pick-up, we prioritise a proper face-to-face handover because an app can never replace a conversation but we use the EYlog app to send you updates and photos also, so you are never disconnected from your child’s journey.

Reflecting the Families We Serve

We are proud to be a part of Southall & Northolt's vibrant community. We regularly engage children in projects that expand their understanding of the world with empathy, ensuring they are confident and capable communicators in a multicultural environment.

Honouring Our Cultural Diversity

Our team reflects the diversity of the families we serve, and so does our curriculum. We celebrate the festivals that matter to our parents from Diwali and Eid to Christmas helping children build a deep respect and understanding of different cultures and beliefs before they even start school.

Complete Care, Fully Inclusive (No Hidden Costs)

We believe in removing the "mental load" from your morning. That is why our fees are fully inclusive.

We provide:

  • Nappies
  • Wipes
  • Suncream

Freshly Cooked Meals (Included)

Our dedicated chefs prepare fresh, hot meals from scratch on-site every day. We cater to all dietary requirements including Halal, vegetarian, and allergy-specific needs ensuring your child has the right fuel everyday.

Partnership And Support

We Are on Your Team. Raising a child takes a village. Whether it’s support with potty training, advice on sleep routines, or a termly one-to-one meeting to discuss your child’s progress, we are here to support your parenting journey, not just look after your child.

Our eldest daughter attended Snowflakes Day Nursery & Montessori for two years, finishing four years ago. After such a positive experience, we didn't hesitate to send our second daughter, who has just completed four wonderful years at the nursery. The care and attention the staff show to both our daughters has been exceptional, even our eldest, who left years ago, is still warmly remembered. The staff create a warm, nurturing environment where every child feels happy, valued, and confident. They also provide fantastic support and understanding to parents, always listening and helping with any needs. They created a great foundation for Reception, helping them start school feeling ready and secure. We speak not only from our own experience but also from what we've seen around us - the warmth, dedication, and consistency of care are truly outstanding. The wonderful experience and memories are not only ours as parents, but also our daughters', who both have such happy memories of their time at Snowflakes Day Nursery & Montessori. We're so grateful for all the love, care, and guidance our girls have received. Highly recommend!

I would highly recommend Snowflakes Day Nursery to any parents who are looking for an outstanding place. You can leave your child with peace of mind that your child is being looked after by very professional and caring staff. My 2-year-old only attended for a few months but made huge progress. I could see the difference in his confidence and social skills. I am very grateful to the Lilac Room team for all their support. Even the office and management staff are very attentive and professional. Thank you Snowflakes.

My son started at Snowflakes Nursery in September 2023. Since starting the nursery, my son has made great progress with his learning and development. He has grown so much in confidence, socially he has become more confident and also with his self-care, dressing and using the toilet. My partner and I are extremely thankful and appreciative of all the nursery has done. The staff are amazing, always very friendly, caring and always providing very good feedback. I would definitely recommend this nursery to parents, it's amazing.

I have always been very happy with the nursery. Recently my second child joined the Snowflakes family and settled in very well. The nursery has use of 3 spacious age-appropriate rooms which are equipped to meet the children's individual needs, containing a variety of educational toys and activities. All children can benefit from the outdoor play area too. I am never concerned about the quality of care my kids get. The staff are very friendly and helpful and you can see their total dedication to the children. They provide a fun, nurturing and homely environment for the children and know how to ensure that they have fun and feel comfortable. On a daily basis, parents get a good summary of the children's day, the activities they took part in and what food they had. I can't say enough good things about how happy I am with the choice I made to send my children here. It really is a lovely nursery and I would recommend to anyone wanting to put their baby/child into a nursery.
