Fortis Green Nursery
GoodBirth to 5Open for decades
A day nursery in London for children from birth to 5, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in March 2024. Open since 2008, with 62 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 Haringey
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Haringey 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 and babies settle extremely well in this calm, happy and welcoming nursery. They thrive in an environment that is centred around children's curiosities.
Children are keen to get involved in the activities on offer and show positive attitudes to learning. Staff get to know children very well through a robust settlingin process that is adapted to meet the needs of each child. This allows children to develop strong relationships with their key person, as well as the co-key person and other familiar nursery staff.
The curriculum is designed to follow the interests of the children. Books and stories are used as a hook for learning to support children's language development and a love of stories. Children benefit from many early literacy opportunities. They sing songs and have access to books inside and outside.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to understand the importance of children using their self-help skills consistently at every opportunity, to develop their independence n consider the organisation of role-play activities to ensure that all staff understand how to securely implement all learning intentions.

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.
