My two daughters (2,5 yrs old and 11 months) go at Bridge Lane Nursery near Battersea Park. It is oustanding, I and other mums I know who go there are so happy and confident that our children are going to be loved, cuddled and challenged...
It has a great ethos and a family feel, the children there are so happy. it is purpose-build and their outdoor space is one of the biggest (we are in london so it is all relative) I have seen, filled with great activities (slide, climbing frame, etc.). They go 2 days a week and these are my older child favourite days
and I think the youngest too...
The older one will be starting the preschool group in september. They go from 3 months to 5yrs old. They have 5 groups: babies (up to 15months), mobiles up to 2yrs old, toddlers till 3 and then preschool.
I cannot stress enough how great this nursery is and it is open 51 weeks a year!
It doesnt come cheap though.
