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 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 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.

Our daughter has absolutely thrived at Green Park Nursery, having been there for over two years now. We've come to know the team well and everyone is super friendly and accommodating. Our child has greatly enjoyed her time at the nursery - she's developed massively and a huge part of that is down to Green Park Nursery. We're so grateful for her experience and highly recommend the nursery to other parents!
We've had a wonderful experience with Green Park Nursery. Both of my sons have attended, and although they're very different, the team made an effort to understand what worked best for each of them. One started in the baby room and stayed through to preschool. My other son still attends and is...
The staff are warm, patient and easy to talk to. They take the time to know each child and their individual needs. Daily handovers were informative and never hurried, which reassured us that our boys were being well looked after. The nursery also encourages sharing, turn-taking and independence in a kind, supportive way.
The bright, spacious rooms, lovely gardens and forest area are all great features. The children get lots of time outside and take part in a varied mix of activities and crafts. The management team is responsive and willing to help with additional requests.
Both boys have been very happy there, and I'd happily recommend Green Park Nursery.
We've had an amazing experience at Green Park Day Nursery with both our girls. Our eldest being there in the baby room all the way to preschool. The care, love and nurturing which she has received from the staff has been wonderful to see. She was always happy to go to nursery and created some...
I would also commend Green Park Day Nursery on the general amount of space which the children have to play, especially also outside. Lots of room for movement and exploring.
Just an overall wonderful experience at Green Park Day Nursery - would highly recommend.

My child first attended this nursery as a 10 month old baby and finished all the way up to preschool.
Green park Nursey have been absolutely fantastic , the care they took in the development of my child. Making him into such a strong confident young boy who strolled into reception with such enthusiasm at the age of five.
They exceeded my expectations and made our whole experience so joyful. The staff were fantastic, and I'll always recommend them to anybody that is seeking a nursery. I want to thank them so much and they will truly be missed and always remembered for the fantastic work they've doneand they will truly be missed and always remembered for the fantastic work they've done.
Both of my boys attended Green Park Nursery, and we had a very positive experience. They have completely different personalities, but the staff took time to understand them and found the right approach for each. One of my sons spent almost two and a half years there, from the baby room through to...
The staff are friendly, approachable and very patient. They genuinely know every child, their needs, and personality and treat them as individuals. Handovers were always informative, and never felt rushed, giving us confidence that our boys were well cared for. They use a gentle approach to teaching children to share, take turns and become more independent.
The spacious rooms, well-equipped gardens and forest area are also real strengths. The children spend lots of time outdoors and enjoy a wide variety of activities and crafts. Management responds quickly and always tries to accommodate additional requests. Both of our boys were happy there, and I would gladly recommend the nursery

We are extremely satisfied with Green Park Nursery. This is our child's first experience attending nursery in the UK, and she started with very limited English, which made us a little worried at the beginning. We are incredibly thankful to all the teachers for your endless patience, gentle care and thoughtful support. The teachers have created a warm, welcoming environment and helped her slowly settle in. It means so much to us that she looks forward to coming to nursery every day and always has a wonderful time here. We really appreciate all the efforts you have made to help her adapt to the new life. Thank you for taking such good care of our little one.
Nursery teachers are very friendly and they care so much about childrens. I appreciate them.

I was told with very little notice that my child was not settling with his childminder he would always be crying on collection and he was always nervous. I got in contact with Green park and they booked my son in for a visit very quickly and I can not believe the difference in my son. I was really anxious dropping him off at first but I was really reassured by the staff at Green park not only have I noticed a massive difference in his confidence and happiness at home so has my family and friends I could not be more thankful to the team at Green park Nursey they have been amazing and my son is striving being there.
Our two daughters are loving their time at Green Park. The team are very friendly and feel genuinely invested in their learning and development. They do a variety of activities and we enjoy seeing updates on the app. The nursery has fantastic indoor and outdoor spaces all on one floor which was a...
The food is brilliant, they have a varied diet and both our daughters have become great eaters.
For our eldest daughter it has been great to have the same key worker throughout her time at the nursery. Dee has been amazing, nothing is ever too much for her, she has a great temperament and she's really helped our daughters development. We know our she will miss Dee very much when she finishes preschool in August.
We genuinely can't fault this nursery and would highly recommend it.
Communication...
Communication with parents has always been excellent, with regular updates on progress, activities, and any important matters. The nursery is well organised, clean, and offers a great range of engaging activities that support learning, creativity, and social skills.
What stands out most is how friendly and attentive the team are, they really take the time to understand each child as an individual. It gives great peace of mind knowing your child is in such capable and caring hands.
I would highly recommend Green Park Nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing, professional, and supportive childcare setting.

Our twin boys first started Green Park Day Nursery when they were 12 months old, they are now in Pre-School. The staff are all amazing, friendly and supportive and the twins are very well cared for. They have fun filled days with lots of varied activities to keep them entertained. Both my boys have SEN and the team have guided us through a very complex SEND system with full support and interventions to ensure they have the best chances ready for when they start school - and I cannot thank the team enough. We will be sad when the twins journey ends in August, but they are well prepared for their new adventure
Our boy has been with Green Park since he was 9 months. They have always been amazing with him.

She absolutely LOVES going to nursery; she is thriving there and learning lots of new skills. The teachers have been amazing - very patient and helpful with her.
Brook is a rock star who really understands my daughter and has created a real bond with her. It will be sad leaving Green Park soon for school, but as a mother, I cannot say enough how grateful I am for all the hard work and support you have provided for my little troublemaker.
Thank you a lot.
We had a very concerning experience with this nursery recently . On my 1 year old son first day, he fell and hit the back of his head, but staff said they had not noticed it. Over the next two weeks, he suffered four separate facial scratches all over the face - one very close to his eye , which...
While accidents can happen, what worried us most was the way staff dismissed these incidents as "normal" and failed to put effective measures in place after I informed. As a result, our child became unsettled, had difficulty sleeping, and lost his appetite.
This nursery does not deserve its "Outstanding" rating, as children's safety and wellbeing should always be the top priority. Sadly, in our experience, it did not meet that standard.
Multiple authorities, including Ofsted, are now investigating. I strongly encourage any parents with similar experiences to raise a complaint.

We also liked a lot of the ethos of the nursery, for example sitting and eating together - our daughter has recently started school and one of the comments is how well the children from Green Park eat at school lunches.

I currently have two little ones at Green Park Day Nursery and both of them love it there. My eldest, who is now three, has been there since he was ten months old. This nursery has allowed him to flourish into a very grown up little boy who is sociable and confident. The team (across all rooms) have been incredibly supportive in his development and I don't really have a bad word to say. My youngest is now receiving the same great care in the caterpillars room and I am starting to see him progress in a similar manner.

The teachers and staff are simply brilliant-so caring and attentive. Our son adores them, and it's clear they genuinely enjoy what they do. He eats well, sleeps soundly, and comes home with a big smile on his face every day!
We also appreciate how quickly our questions and requests are answered. It really makes a difference knowing we can easily communicate with the team.
Overall, we feel incredibly lucky to have found such a nurturing environment for our little one. Highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a loving and supportive nursery!

The staff are amazing - warm, supportive, and genuinely caring. They've helped him so much with his speech development, and it's been wonderful to see how confidently he's now expressing himself. He's learned so many new skills, from socialising and sharing to songs, numbers, and colours.
The facilities are excellent - clean, safe, and full of engaging activities that keep him excited to go in every day. I also really appreciate the regular, detailed feedback from the team. It's reassuring to know how he's getting on and what he's enjoying. I truly feel he's thriving at Green Park, and we're so happy to be part of this nursery.
