  • Jigsaw Day Nursery, Mitcham
Jigsaw Day Nursery operates from a two-story house on a residential road in Mitcham, offering childcare to children aged 3 months to 5 years. There is a large outdoor area with climbing frame, mud kitchen and digging area. The baby room extends to an undercover area, that leads into the garden.

Just 10 minutes walk from Mitcham train station and Mitcham Tram Stop, and close to local bus services (Cricket Green, London Road, A236 Road and Church Road), they offer the highest quality childcare and pride themselves in meeting the high standards set for children's nursery care.

As a registered provider of early years education, they offer the Nursery Education Grant which entitles all 2 year-3 year-4 years old to either 15 or 30 hours of Government funding. They accept all types of childcare vouchers.

Jigsaw Day Nursery supplies toothbrushes, toothpaste and flannels, to teach children about hygiene, and the nursery works with parents to help with potty training, thereby supporting with child development.

The nursery can cater for special dietary requirements, with the Chef working with the parents, to meet individual children’s dietary requirements.        

The nursery holds extra-curricular activities, gymnastics sessions and swimming lessons at Canons Leisure Centre, and Spanish lessons at an extra cost.

Review from Rachel B (Mother of Child) published on 31 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Such a wonderful nursery. Friendly and attentive staff, very good communication and a wide range of activities to keep little ones entertained, rooted in EYFS. Our 18 mo daughter is very happy and well looked after by the team!
The big draw for us was the outside space at Jigsaw - more generous than
any other nursery we visited, with a mixture of toys, nature and sensory areas. Children play outside nearly every day. They also do a range of activities - crafts, sensory play, story time. They even go on trips (chessington world of adventures last week!)
Communication is great. The app is updated daily with sleep, meals and nappies etc, but we also get photos and videos every week, tracking our daughters development. The nursery is a really nice size - max 9 under 2's in the baby room.
The best thing about Jigsaw is the staff. Everyone is so incredibly friendly and professional, they all genuinely care about the children they look after. We feel so lucky to have found Jigsaw!

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The key workers work hard to forge strong relationships with the kids. Updates and use of the app are good. They take advantage of the local area. Their responses to our queries are good. Very friendly and happy nursery. They could do with a bit more space.
Overall happy with the experience.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.125)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.125) out of 10 for Jigsaw Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.6 out of 5 from 3 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 4.500 for Jigsaw Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (21 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.5
  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 3.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Jigsaw Day Nursery is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 40 number of registered child places is 8. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.375
  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.
