Archangels Montessori Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in London for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 to 18:00, 7 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in December 2024. Open since 2019, with 39 places.
What you might pay
This setting does not publish its fees, and no national dataset holds them. This is what childcare costs across the council, as a starting point for the call.
What childcare usually costs in Bromley
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Bromley from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What it is like to attend
Staff provide a warm and welcoming learning environment where children arrive eager to start their day. Children are happy and settled and know routines well.
Staff praise children well during activities helping to build children's confidence. For example, during circle time staff encourage the children to think about what they have already learnt and support their critical thinking with regards to weather and seasons.
Staff support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND)
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to provide more challenge during activities for children to develop their independence further n continue to evaluate the quality of the provision to maintain a high-quality learning environment.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
