About this price
How the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

My son has been thriving at Micky Star Nursery since he joined 4 months ago. Everyone who works there is so caring and we have felt so welcomed since joining - highly recommend this nursery to all future parents who are considering where to send their little ones in the area of Paddington.

We have been so happy there, my son absolutely loves it and regularly asks to attend on days he isn't booked on!
Highlights for me are the baby sleep room is such a huge bonus to get the smallest ones the rest they need in a calm environment dedicated to sleep, and the yard is such a wonderful space and so rare to find outdoor space like that in central London.
We are moving soon and I'm genuinely sad to leave Mickey star. We are going to another LEYF to try and replicate the experience. Highly recommend.
My child recently transitioned from the baby room to the toddler and the transition has been very smooth and I have been well informed about the phased settling-in into the new older classroom. The facilities are fantastic with a large garden and lots of outdoor space

The staff are incredibly caring, dedicated, and genuinely invested in the children's wellbeing and development. They are always looking for ways to improve their programmes and create engaging experiences, while consistently putting the children's best interests first.
The facilities are excellent, with a fantastic outdoor space that gives the children plenty of opportunities to play, explore, and learn outside.
We've had a wonderful experience throughout our time at the nursery and have always felt confident that our son is happy, safe, and well looked after. I would highly recommend Micky Star to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive nursery environment.

We are so happy with Micky Star. Our daughter started at 9 months old in the baby room and has gone from strength to strength - she is so happy here. We looked around a few nurseries and honestly Micky Star was in a league of its own. We have been so impressed by the kindness and competence of the staff, the cleanliness of the space and the outdoor facilities. During the multiple heatwaves this summer, we have been so impressed by how well Bev and the team dealt with the challenges whilst still keeping the nursery safe and open (unlike many other nurseries) - a lifeline for working parents. We could not recommend this nursery more highly.
And i am interested to repeat my experiance with my younger son when he turned 2 years
Love you Micky Star

Micky Star has been a cornerstone of our family's life for years. Our son attended from 13 months old in 2023 until he graduated preschool in 2025, and our daughter is now thriving there, having joined from the baby room in 2025 to the toddler room currently.
Their Montessori-inspired educational framework is fantastic. Children are gently guided to lead their own play and explore age-appropriate activities. They also make wonderful arts and crafts that have become lasting memories for our family. They have a fantastic big garden that allows lots of room to run and play every day, which is amazing for practicing gross motor skills safely. They also enjoy regular trips to local parks and libraries.
Without wider family support in the UK, Micky Star has been our absolute rock. The peace of mind they give us is priceless.
Both of my kids are genuinely happy at every pickup. They have formed beautiful bonds with their peers and the trusted, caring staff. Thank you Micky Star!

My daughter has been going to Micky Star for over a year. Overall I am very happy with it and would definitely recommend. Mainly because of the staff who are great. Also much better outdoor space than most other nurseries I visited. I love that they take the children on trips to the library or the park. They do different activities every day.
They are very proactive in providing feedback and updates on how she's progressing.

My daughter has been going to Micky Star for a year and has just started full time. I'm very happy with the nursery and would highly recommend. The teachers are wonderful and prepare great stimulating activities for the children. Also, the outdoor space is quite sizable for central London.

Excellent nursery. Large spaces, very nice outdoor garden. Lots of trips, lots of fun, very nice and caring staff in the baby and toddler room. Our daughter is enjoying her time there. The staff was supportive when she was struggling to settled in at the beginning.

Caring and dedicated staff, excellent meals and learning activities in the baby room. Teacher to baby ratio is great and they all know the babies so well as a result and are able to provide personalised attention. The faculties are also very well kept, always neat and cleaner and safe.

I couldn't be happier with my two girls' nursery! The staff are absolutely fantastic, especially the nursery manager and room leaders, who are always approachable and ensure everything runs smoothly. Both the baby room and toddler room offer wonderful activities that have really helped my children...
The only small improvement I'd suggest is making sure the food menu is followed more consistently. Other than that, it's a brilliant nursery, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring and engaging environment for their little ones!
We are so happy with the experience at Micky Star! We have had our son in their care since he was young. The staff are all wonderful, and they have such a positive way of engaging with the children. Our son really feels at home there and we know he is in great hands.

Excellent outside space and equipment both inside and outside for the toddlers. Workers are very caring and my children like going to nursery every day. Also very much appreciate the healthy and varied menu, which both kids enjoy.

A brilliant nursery. The staff in the baby room are incredibly kind - just the best - and helped our daughter settle in, reassuring us all and providing lots of feedback. They do so many great activities (music, craft, books, yoga!) and are outside twice every day which she loves. The baby room has lots of resources, plus a separate sleep room which is great. The big outside space is the best we saw of all the nurseries around. We get lots of updates on the app, a check in with her key worker each term, and lots of chance to come in and be part of what's going on through parties, concerts etc. Our daughter has learnt so much (her speech is coming on every day!) and is clearly really happy and brilliantly looked after. We would 100% recommend.
First of all, I am really happy with this nursery, my son has got a lot of knowledge and is happy. They support him very well and the staff are amazing on the manager, she is a very lovely lady. I recommend this nursery for everyone to put their child in. They are very safe for children, the staff...
