Re: URGENT ACTION REQUIRED : The ridiculous Labour 'Private School VAT' scam ...

This may be the most pathetic and tone deaf post I've ever read. I have zero sympathy for wealthy parents complaining about this. If you can shell out thousands for private education, you can deal with paying VAT. It's not a hardship; it’s just part of contributing fairly to society. There are plent...

Re: Welcome to Little green Nurseries. New Nursery! Opened on Grant road in Clapham Junction.

Re: Butterfly Preschool and Mouse House

Thank you so much. I actually logged in today to ask about Noah’s Ark! This is a serious contender for us now that Mouse House is off the table (for various reasons). I struggled to find much information about Noah’s Ark online - it would be great to get any additional feedback, as I think this is w...

Butterfly Preschool and Mouse House

Hi everyone - hope all's well. Does anyone have recent experience of Butterfly Preschool or Mouse Hole that they'd be able to share?  We are caught between two options for our toddler this autumn.

Linden Tree Nursery - Webb’s Road - any thoughts?

Hi all,

Does anyone have any recent feedback on Linden Tree Nursery (formerly Baby Room) on Webbs Rd?

We can only find older reviews which aren’t fantastic - but wondering if there are any parents with children there now or recently, particularly babies?

Any thoughts would be amazing!

Thanks
