Anerley Day Nursery achieved an Expected Standard across all areas in its latest Ofsted report card (September 2026).
Located at Crystal Early Years Centre on Anerley Road, SE20, the nursery provides early years childcare for children aged 0 to 4, with 89 places, and is open Monday to Friday from 7:30 am to 6:30pm.
Children at Anerley Day Nursery participate in a broad early years curriculum that builds on individual interests and supports steady progress across all areas of learning. The nursery team provides a warm, inclusive environment with creative play, storytime sessions, music and singing, and outdoor exploration in the garden and through trips into the local community.
A diverse, experienced team supports children who speak English as an additional language, alongside specialist provision for children with special educational needs, and works closely with external professionals to ensure every child can access the curriculum.
The nursery team works closely with families through daily conversations, progress updates via the GrandirUK App, and regular reviews. A strong key person system helps children build secure attachments from day one, while well-managed routines and thoughtful transitions between rooms support confidence and independence throughout the early years journey.

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
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.

Crystal Early Years is a fantastic nursery and it's incredibly convenient as it's over the road from Anerley Station. We're lucky to have it on our doorstep. My son has been going there since he was around 8 months old and seeing how happy he was there, straight away, really put my mind at rest. He always smiles when he's dropped off in the morning and we always have a nice chat with his carers for the day when we pick him up in the evening.

Our little girl (30-months-old) has been going here for well over a year now and she loves it. The team are great, their investment in the kids is genuine and there's consistency which has allowed the relationships to grow between child and carers and helped our child feel secure. Lots of home-cooked food/and food choices and there's a good energy about the place.
I'd recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely five star care and provision. The staff are amazingly caring, positive and knowledgable about the interests, personal development and well being of our daughter. It was the same for our son. Both kids adored the setting; loved going. Can’t recommend it enough!

Sending my son here was the best choice I’ve made, his previous nursery didn’t have the correct learning materials in place than Crystal Early Years does. I am delighted to say that this is an outstanding nursery and I guarantee my son will learn much better and quicker as you can tell they focus well on the children. My son also comes home with dry clothes as they pay great attention to his potty training which I’m also glad about.
