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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 November 2024. Open since 2016, with 67 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 Greenwich
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Greenwich 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 receive warm and nurturing care from adults, which helps them to form secure relationships with them. Staff work in close partnership with parents, sharing information and keeping them updated on what children are doing at nursery. They plan an appropriate curriculum for children, helping them to make good progress in their learning and development.
Positive behaviour is modelled and encouraged by adults consistently throughout the day. Children respond to this by sharing their toys with each other and taking turns in their play. The nursery is clean and tidy and there is a strong focus on hygiene and cleanliness. With support and guidance from adults, children wash their hands in preparation for mealtimes and scrape their plates after they finish eating. This promotes children developing good hygiene and self-care habits.
Younger children are provided with resources to develop their strength, balance and coordination. With encouragement and support, they go through tunnels, kick balls and pull themselves up on large play equipment. This helps them to develop their large physical skills. Older children take part in races, jumping in hoops and running around obstacles. They show care and sympathy towards each other, forming close friendships.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- fully consider children's stages of learning when implementing planned activities.

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.
