A day nursery in London for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 to 18:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in August 2023. Open since 2013, with 26 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 Wandsworth
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Wandsworth 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
Children arrive excitedly at this nursery. They are greeted with a warm hug from staff. Staff establish consistent routines. For example, children wash their hands and self-register before they begin playing. The leader has devised a well-thoughtout curriculum. Staff plan a good range of enticing activities that captivate children's interests and concentration. For example, children develop strong hand muscles and good hand-to-eye coordination. They remain deeply absorbed using spoons to pour coloured water into narrow-necked bottles. Toddlers enjoy squeezing spray bottles outdoors. Older babies persist as they pluck various miniature suction toys off tables.
Staff ensure that children play in a well-organised environment. Children are inquisitive learners who explore the environment and choose their own play with confidence. Staff sit with children and effectively model positive play and interactions. As a result, children relax and, for the most part, play harmoniously.
Staff have high expectations for children's independence and behaviour. They speak to children with kindness and respect. Staff dedicate their time to promote individual children's good turn-taking and sharing skills. Children quickly learn the difference between acceptable and unacceptable behaviour. Staff encourage children's good manners. Children learn to say 'please' and 'thank you'.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- seek additional ways to further promote individual children's understanding of their good health and how germs can spread n strengthen existing systems for monitoring and training so all staff demonstrate a secure understanding of the nursery's policies and procedures.

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.
