Childcare in London (Lambeth)

London (Lambeth) has 105 day nurseries, 14 pre-schools, 57 school nursery classes, 34 childminders and 61 after-school clubs. Ofsted has inspected 109 of them and rated 100 Good or better, 10 of them Outstanding. 164 have never been inspected, which usually means recently registered. Of those that publish a price, a full day runs from £17 to £90, typically £80. Across Lambeth there are 40 places per 100 children under five, better supplied than England as a whole at 32.

Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Lambeth, divided by the children aged 0 to 4 who live there at the 2021 Census. It compares areas; it is not a count of free places today. It also leaves out the 60 school nursery classes across Lambeth, because nobody publishes how many children they take.

Questions

What people ask about childcare in London (Lambeth)

Answered from the figures on this page, so they stay in step with it.

How much does nursery cost in London (Lambeth)?

Of the 13 full-day rates published by settings in London (Lambeth), the typical price is £80 a day, ranging from £17 to £90. These are prices the settings publish themselves, not an average of quotes.

Which nurseries in London (Lambeth) take funded hours?

83 of the 273 settings in London (Lambeth) are recorded as taking the government funded hours. Councils do not publish a list of approved providers, so the rest are unknown rather than a no.

Are any nurseries in London (Lambeth) rated Outstanding?

Yes. 10 of the 109 settings Ofsted has inspected in London (Lambeth) hold an Outstanding grade.

Which nurseries in London (Lambeth) take babies?

167 settings in London (Lambeth) are registered to take children under two. Ofsted's register does not say whether a setting runs a baby room or has space in it, so ring before you plan around it.

Is it hard to get a nursery place in London (Lambeth)?

Lambeth has 40 registered childcare places for every 100 children under five, against 32 across England. That is registered capacity rather than free places, so it compares areas rather than telling you what is available this week.
