The Nursery is just off the Edgware Road, close to the tube. It's a large purpose-built setting with two gardens, one for toddlers and pre-schoolers and one for babies.
The experienced staff have set up the Nursery as a free-flowing educational space. Every day is different! The children enjoy gardening and getting messy in the mud kitchen, rounders, yoga, science experiments like ‘Sink or Float’, dialogic reading, and more.

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.

Nursery is really good, and it has a great equipped garden and playground. Staff are great and children look happy. We are so pleased with the rapport our son has built with the many staff at Mickey. He came to the country, didn't speak English and was very shy; but with the connections he has built, he has grown in confidence and really been able to show his personality.
Our daughter has been going to Micky Star Nursery for a year and she loves it! She attends the baby room, where the play area is large and there is an independent sleep room and eating area (which isn't always the case in London) - and we love the big garden too! The staff is very kind and...
Our daughter has been going to Micky Star Nursery for a year and she loves it! She attends the baby room, where the play area is large and there is an independent sleep room and eating area (which isn't always the case in London) - and we love the big garden too! The staff is very kind and welcoming; the management is very passionate and dedicated. One down side is that I feel there has some turnaround in the staff lately (which could be a concern) but it doesn't seem to have affected our little one who is always very happy to go! In any case, we highly recommend this nursery.
I’m really happy with the nursery and my son seems to enjoy his time there. It has an amazing garden with lots of space for outdoor activities. The permanent staff is well-trained, caring and supportive.

Our daughter has attended from 12 months old and we are so grateful to the wonderful team who care for all the children as their own. The outdoor space in central London is fantastic and well-maintained and all the children have a connection with their teachers and look so happy. Our daughter is always happy to attend and is never hungry on collection. The updates via the parent portal is great too. We think there should be a little more community interaction as there is limited parent-to-parent communication.

Lovely nursery with beautiful outside garden where children spend a lot of time. Welcoming and accommodating staff. In-house cook catering to specific nutrition needs. The classrooms are big and equipped with many different activities and toys. The baby room also has a dedicated room for sleeping. Opening times are working parent-friendly. Our baby has thrived there and we heartily recommend it.
Excellent nursery for each category. Our baby loves to go there. The place is very nice and very big for a central nursery, food is good, staff is very good too. The communication through the application is very good for parents. Thanks.

Good parents app. Timely updates. Staff are friendly and engaging in the baby room. Good leadership from the manager and deputy manager. Key persons are helpful in creating a good learning environment and have at times created personalised learning and development plans.

I highly recommend the nursery which has a great safe outdoor space for kids to play; our son is very happy with the teachers who are caring and friendly! Also the staff has been the same so our son is with familiar faces since he joined!

Our daughter has been going to the nursery now for over one and a half years and she is absolutely loving it. Especially the garden is a plus for London and we value the various crafts they do with the children. One improvement would be the variety of food as it's very repetitive and carb-heavy.

They were and still are very happy to go to nursery every morning and most days they just go into the nursery forgetting to say goodbye to us. Food is very good. Staff genuinely know the children. The outdoor garden allows the children to spend a lot of time outside, particularly in the summer.

The teachers are nice and very welcoming with both children and parents.
However, as a parent, I feel there is some area of improvement. Most of the time, I pick up my daughter very dirty because they paint, they play with sand, they enjoy the garden, obviously, babies are messy but I would expect the children to wear aprons when they paint, for example, or make sure they don’t go outside when the playground is wet and muddy! It’s frustrating to pick up your child with stains all over the clothes - stains that most of the time remains after the wash.
I also noticed an important turnover in terms of teachers those days. People are leaving without notice.
Because nurseries are very expensive in London, I do have very high expectations.
I would also appreciate an opening hour extending to 7pm.
My son has been very happy there for 3 years and particularly enjoys the garden area.
Activities are interesting and varied and often messy which is great.

My daughter is having so much fun here.
Outdoor space is huge, even though the nursery location is in the city where space is a premium.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
Food is halal. I don’t need to worry, especially as I am very particular about this.

This is a fantastic nursery, which my son has been attending since he was 7 months. He loves the open garden space this nursery has to offer. They do lots of great educational projects with the children, helping the children expand on their vocabulary and overall understanding of the world. Also, the staff are all very friendly and make me, as a mother, feel very happy to leave my child in their care. They give detailed feedback at the end of each day. You can really see that the staff are very caring, as they always have lots of wonderful things to say about the children. I would recommend this nursery to all parents.
We are very happy with the staff and the nursery premises. The outdoor space is a great bonus! We are extremely happy with her keyworker! The food is varied from meat, veg, fish! She comes home with different words, musical songs, dances that she has learnt during the day. Excellent overall.

This nursery is truly amazing. The facilities are great: over 3 floors with daylight and with a huge garden where there is a trampoline and little cars. It is well run by the manager. All the people working there are extremely friendly, loving and accommodating e.g. they are understanding when you arrive late. The food is cooked on site and they really help with weaning and they are respectful of food allergies. My care person did an extremely good job with my eldest and takes the best of care of my youngest. They really helped my youngest to crawl and he is now cruising. With my eldest, they really encouraged his development of language and potty trained him. I am really impressed by the observation folder they keep on each child. When I do the drop-off, the rooms look so much fun, with little toy stations laid out across the room (E.g. sand, animals or tunnels). It is a bit far from my place but for me, it is totally worth walking for 20 min every day.
