About this day nursery

With a history stretching back to 1973 in Ealing Common, the nursery focuses on the Montessori philosophy to help children build confidence and self-esteem within a safe and happy environment.

The school prides itself on having experienced and affectionate Montessori teachers and early years practitioners who develop strong bonds with the children.

They offer a parent portal for monitoring daily progress, extracurricular activities like Forest School and yoga, and a secure freeflow outdoor area. The nursery has received accreditations including an 'Outstanding' rating from Ofsted, MEAB accreditation, a 5-star food and hygiene rating, and a 'Quality Assured Montessori' accreditation from My Montessori Child, as well as a Bronze award for 'Healthy Early Years' from the Mayor of London.
