Good★ 4.4 on GoogleBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in London for children from birth to 8+, open 07:30 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 April 2024. Open since 2011, with 75 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
Staff are kind and welcoming at this nursery. As children arrive, they confidently separate from their parents and carers and are greeted by staff. Staff provide consistent routines that help children settle and feel safe. Children are happy and energetically play and explore. Across the nursery, staff support, encourage and praise children. They promote children's positive attitudes towards their learning effectively. Children learn to concentrate on their chosen activities.
Leaders plan a broad curriculum filled with activities that promote children's developing language, physical agility and self-expression. Staff prepare the outdoor and indoor learning environments with enticing activities. Children enjoy musical, sensory and messy play opportunities. Staff have meaningful interactions with children that foster their curiosity as they play. Babies choose spades and scoops themselves and use them to dig in the sand. They determinedly toddle towards the outdoor climbing and water play equipment. Children show they love being in the open air. Staff have high expectations for children's developing independence. As a result, babies confidently assert themselves, and older children manage aspects of their self-care.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen staff's knowledge of how to promote children's ability to manage age-appropriate risks during their indoor play n provide consistent support for individual children who are in the earlier stages of understanding the expectations and boundaries so they learn to self-regulate their behaviour.

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.
