Woodlands Nurseries - Waterfall House

About this day nursery

Woodlands Nursery Waterfall House, situated at 223 Tooting High Street, London, SW17 0TD, is a welcoming early years setting for children from a young age through to school age. The day nursery aims to provide an environment where children can thrive and develop at their own pace, utilising a "Family Grouping" approach to foster responsibility, independence, and co-operation.

Their philosophy is centred on creating a safe and engaging space for learning, supported by a team dedicated to children's well-being and development. The day nursery focuses on preparing children for the wider world by nurturing their growth during their formative years with a rich environment featuring natural and authentic resources to spark imagination and creativity through play.

They offer additional activities like Spanish, music, and sports classes to enhance the children's experience. Woodlands Nursery also participates in government funding schemes, stretching the available hours over their 51-week opening period to ensure consistent benefit for families.

Our ethos

The Woodlands Way is to create an environment where children’s development relates to the surroundings in which they are given the opportunity to thrive. We have adopted the “Family Grouping” approach where children are encouraged the play, learn and develop at stages in their early years that apply to each individual child’s needs not just their age. We value a home from home environment, filled with natural and authentic resources, allowing children to develop their imagination and creativity through play.

What it's like

Children arrive happily and are warmly welcomed by staff. They settle quickly and confidently move into activities, demonstrating a sense of belonging and secure attachments with their key person. Children enjoy a broad range of well-planned activities and benefit from a well-sequenced curriculum with a clear focus on developing communication and language.
