Top 20 Nursery in London

We are delighted to share that The Playhouse Nursery has been recognised as one of the Top 20 Day Nurseries in London by daynurseries.co.uk.

This award means a great deal to us, as it is based on feedback from our parents and carers - the families who experience what we do every day.


Their kind words and continued support reassure us that the care, attention and dedication we put into creating a nurturing environment for children is truly making a difference.


At The Playhouse Nursery, our ethos has always been centred around providing a safe, warm and engaging space where children feel happy, valued and supported in their development. We believe that building strong relationships with both children and families is key to creating a positive early years experience.


Our team are incredibly proud of this achievement. They work hard every day with passion and commitment, and this recognition is a reflection of their efforts to give every child the very best start in life.


We’re also grateful to daynurseries.co.uk for organising these awards and for highlighting the importance of parent feedback in recognising quality childcare.


This award is not only something for us to celebrate, but also motivation to continue maintaining the high standards our families expect from us.

We want your child to feel safe and happy in the absence of their parents. We also want parents to feel welcome and involved from the beginning. We understand that choosing a nursery is one of the first important milestones in your child’s life and we are here to support you on this exciting journey. We are always eager to provide a happy, smooth and memorable transition into nursery for every child when they start with us. Your child's key person will work together in partnership with you so that your journey with The Playhouse Nursery is positive from the start. During your settling in sessions, we aim to understand everything about your child such as their current routine, how they like to be comforted, if they have a special comforter, a favourite story or activity they enjoy. Throughout your child’s time at nursery, their key person will always take into account their needs and interests and provide activities that promote learning through play. After the initial visit, we encourage you to talk to your child about coming to the setting. Your child will have a peg where they can hang their coats and belongings, and this will make them feel they have a place at the nursery. A photo of themselves on the wall above their coats will make them feel valued. Children cannot play or learn successfully if they are anxious and unhappy. Our settling in procedures aim to help parents and children feel comfortable in the nursery, and help to ensure that the child has the opportunity to benefit from their time at nursery, confident in the knowledge that their parents will return to collect them at the end of the session. We aim to ensure your child’s introduction to our setting is as stress free as possible. Children develop in individual ways and at varying rates and that is why at The Playhouse Nursery we offer a settling in procedure that is flexible to meet those needs. Therefore the nature and personality of the child will dictate how many settling sessions are needed.
