## About this day nursery

St Olave's Nursery, located in Streatham Vale, London, was registered with Ofsted in 1999 and operates out of non-domestic premises. The day nursery provides full-day care for children aged one to four years, opening weekdays from 7:45 am to 6 pm, all year round, excluding bank holidays.

The dedicated team of four staff members, including the manager, all hold appropriate early years qualifications, with one member qualified to Level 6. The day nursery received a 'Good' rating in its latest Ofsted inspection on March 8, 2024, maintaining the same 'Good' rating from its previous inspection.

It supports children's development by valuing their voices, encouraging choices in play, and providing an accessible environment that fosters creativity and imaginative play.

The nursery also receives funding to deliver early education for three and four-year-olds.
