Parent Testimonials & Reviews
VOICE 01
St Marian is an exceptional nursery that we recommend to anyone. The staff are consistently friendly and welcoming. Our son, now 3 years old, has been attending for two years and absolutely loves it. Our daughter just started at 6 months old and we feel very confident about her care there. The nursery offers a rich variety of weekly activities designed to stimulate and educate the children (gymnastics, English lessons, music, painting, etc.). Plus, the children go outside daily—weather permitting—which we really appreciate. What stands out most to us is the nursery’s flexibility and understanding towards non-Japanese families. The registration process is quick and straightforward, and a spot is available even if one parent isn’t working or studying full-time.
VOICE 02
A Truly Wonderful Nursery We are so grateful for this nursery. The teachers are fantastic—warm, attentive, and genuinely caring for each child. As foreigners, we were amazed by how accommodating the staff has been, making communication smooth and stress-free. Our daughter entered without speaking Japanese, and now she speaks it almost natively. She has also learned so much about Japanese customs and everyday life in a way that feels natural and joyful.
What makes this nursery even more special is how it integrates not just the children but also the parents into the local community. It has been a beautiful bridge for our family to feel at home in Japan. We couldn’t have wished for a better place for our daughter.
