  • The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road, London
The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is located in a beautiful period property in the Victorian Suburb of Brockley, South London, and is convenient for families living in the local area. The nursery has six light and airy rooms that are divided by age group and each has been designed to promote children's development, curiosity and independence.         

All rooms have thoughtfully planned activities to stimulate children's imagination and encourage them to learn new things. The baby rooms offer low-level furniture to aid children's balancing and walking skills, and the dedicated team provides natural and engaging resources such as messy play, painting, and texture exploration. The toddler rooms also offer a wide range of activities, such as exploring colours, shapes, books, music, and dance, through a well-balanced curriculum that is designed to suit children at every stage of development.

At the nursery, children actively engage in the growth, care, and harvest of their own produce, learning invaluable lessons about plant environments, diverse fruits and vegetables, and the culinary arts. The Lewisham Nursery also boasts cookery enhancement, featuring specialised children's cooking and baking equipment designed for safety and ease of use. These tools are tailor-made to support young culinary explorers on their gastronomic journeys.

Additionally, the nursery offers an enriched language learning experience through Baby Sing and Sign classes, Spanish language lessons, and interactive multilingual books. This language immersion is seamlessly integrated into their engaging curriculum, reinforcing curiosity, creativity, and overall well-being.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter has moved through baby rooms and is now in toddlers and loves the nursery. The staff have been wonderfully caring and have been really invested in her development. She has needed additional help with her gross motor development and the staff have been great at supporting this with a good
mix of direction and encouragement - including working with her physio at nursery - she has progressed a lot. She also loves the activities including music, painting and cooking and talks about her friends at nursery all the time!

Always welcomed warmly by the team as they register our entry and directed into the space.
Asked about baby's morning/nights sleep and any relevant info regarding baby's health.
Joyful and loving care shown as baby is passed over for care.
I have always left feeling secure in the knowledge my
baby is being looked after by knowledgeable and caring staff.

Our little baby girl is very happy at The Old Station Nursery. The staff are warm, kind and caring. We feel very confident leaving her in their care each day. The management are knowledgeable, efficient and organised. They will happily make adaptations and individual arrangements as required. Communication
is good. She has activities everyday, which she likes. She especially enjoys the music session led by a specialist on Thursday morning. She has learnt so much already, including social and motor skills. The food is good quality and plentiful. We would highly recommend The Old Station Nursery.

Review from S M (Mother of Child) published on 20 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been attending The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road since September, when he turned 1. So far we have had a positive experience at the nursery, we found the staff to be accommodating and dedicated to the job. We are given regular updates through the day on his meals, naps, nappy changes
and it's really to communicate both with staff and with the management. The baby room our son is in has also recently been refurbished which is nice to see. Of course the settling period was somewhat hard for our son but the staff had a good plan and made lots of efforts to make it easier for him. He now seems to love nursery and pick ups and drop offs are stress free.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at the nursery for over a year now, moving through the baby rooms up to the toddler room. I have consistently been impressed by the incredibly high level of care and diligence from all the staff, and in particular, the manager who runs the nursery. There is always such great energy in
the mornings and they are constantly coming up with new creative ways to entertain the children. The nursery has also just been renovated so it's a beautiful and clean space for children to play.

Lovely nursery with very kind and caring staff. Kids are engaged in great activities and my 2-year-old daughter looks forward to going every day. Nice outside space for the kids to play, good healthy food and a good focus on age-appropriate learning.

We have been (and continue to) using the nursery since 2021 and have moved through the baby rooms and all the way up to pre-school. Both our children have been very settled and happy attending Old Station Nursery, busy with lots of activities including Spanish, cooking and yoga, and weekly trips to
the park and library. The staff are attentive and interested and work with you on potty training etc.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.829)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.829) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.829 for The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is calculated as follows: ( (270 Excellents x 5) + (49 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 322 Ratings = 4.829
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is based on 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 90 number of registered child places is 18, which has been reached with 27 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
