Childcare in Stanmore
Stanmore has 9 day nurseries, 9 pre-schools, 4 school nursery classes, 4 childminders and 6 after-school clubs. Ofsted has inspected 16 of them and rated 15 Good or better, 3 of them Outstanding. 16 have never been inspected, which usually means recently registered. Across Harrow there are 33 places per 100 children under five, about the same as England as a whole at 32.
Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Harrow, 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 36 school nursery classes across Harrow, because nobody publishes how many children they take.
