About this day nursery
Eveline Day Nursery Schools (The), established in 1992, is a childcare setting for children aged 1-4 years located in London, SW17 9BE. With an 'Good' Ofsted rating from its latest inspection on January 8, 2026, the nursery prides itself on a thoughtfully sequenced EYFS curriculum that helps children build knowledge and skills progressively from infancy through to preschool.
The nursery focuses on supporting children's development in communication, language, emotional regulation, independence, and strong friendships. A key aspect of the nursery's approach is its emphasis on key-person relationships, which are central to each child's wellbeing, fostering a sense of security and belonging.
Children confidently engage in a wide range of activities, including drama sessions and forest school, contributing to their confidence and narrative skills. The nursery also provides robust support for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), ensuring timely interventions and responsive adjustments for individual needs, including sensory regulation and behaviour.

The waiting list for this nursery is very long, but it is totally worth it. Both of our boys have gone/are going here and they loved it. Anita and Denise run a great place and all of the nursery staff are caring, attentive and lovely to speak to.

Our daughter has been going to this nursery since she was six months old. She's now a confident, energetic and happy two and a half year old thanks to the loving care from the staff at Seely Hall.

Our son was very happy here for two years. All of the staff are wonderful and take great care of the children. There was a well structured programme of activities each week. The on site garden was fabulous too!

We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care and attention our daughter receives at Eveline Day Nursery, Seely Hall. She settled in so quickly and now looks forward to attending each day, which speaks volumes about the nurturing and positive environment. The teachers are always so welcoming, happy and genuinely passionate about their work. The atmosphere is warm, supportive and filled with love, making it the perfect place for little ones to learn and grow. Truly 5 stars - We couldn't be happier with our experience here!

My daughter is incredibly happy at Seely Hall and is always asking when she is going next! The staff are all so friendly and engaging to her but also to the rest of the family at drop off/pick up. She has allergies and they have been really clear and thorough in their policies around this giving us great confidence in their care. She has lots of fun because they do a range of activities and regularly play outside. It is so lovely now she has enough language to share at home with us a bit more of her nursery experiences (and the songs she's learnt).
