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.

He has developed in many ways since attending the nursery thanks to his teachers. I feel happy to have found a nursery that I trust my child with and that my child feels so happy to attend. I recommend the nursery 100%. Thank you so much for everything.

We went to visit The London Early Years Foundation (LEYF), Earls Court Nursery & Pre-School when our son was only a few months old and we immediately noticed how attentive, careful and kind each member of staff was towards the children. This was the main reason why we chose it as nursery for our son and today, after several months he has been attending, I can confidently say that my first impression has been confirmed every day. The teachers are loving, supportive (both with the children and the parents) and wonderful educators. Always open to questions and to a chat, it gives me great reassurance to receive updates on my son’s development and what he does during the day. Our son has made a lot of friends and adores the teachers; in fact, some of their names have been among the very first words he has said. If you are looking for a nurturing environment where your child can develop and thrive, I would highly recommend LEYF, Earls Court.
This is our first experience in London as parents and I have to say that we, the four of us, were super well welcomed. All the staff showed signs of care from the very beginning and our kids are feeling at home or even better! Thanks!

From the start, our 16-month-old daughter has formed a wonderful bond with her key educator, who is attentive, nurturing, and deeply invested in her developmental milestones. The variety of activities they engage in daily, such as messy play, drawing, music sessions, and storytelling, ensures that she is not only learning but genuinely enjoying her time at the nursery. London Early Years Foundation (LEYF) is keeping parents involved and informed through their platform(App), providing us with updates, photos, and important information about our daughter’s day-to-day activities and progress.
The environment at LEYF is warm, welcoming, and so are its staff. We are very happy we chose LEYF, and we look forward to seeing our daughter continue to grow and learn in their hands.

We are thoroughly enjoying his time at Earls Court. He has made so many wonderful friends and has learned so much. We are so grateful for the care and attention that he has received from all of the teachers.
All the teachers are so skillful and experienced. Especially the nursery manager and the deputy manager are managing and handling very well. My son’s key worker is so protective of my son and we admire her passion for caring about kids. We can count on them for a child’s development for sure. And they are always welcome to have questions and concerns, which was very crucial to us.
And the meals are incredibly diverse! I wish I could have had it when I was a child.
Anyway, I recommend Earls Court for 100%!

We are very happy with the exceptional care provided for her. The staff in the baby and toddler room have been amazing and they have become a second family to our daughter. The activities provided stimulate significant learning and growth on a cognitive, emotional, and social level. Our daughter has developed beautifully under the nursery’s care. She made great friends there and so did we as parents.
We especially would like to thank the nursery manager who has always been understanding, caring, and accommodating towards us. We always recommend the nursery to our friends and would recommend it to anyone!

The wide range of activities along with the caring and especially nurturing teaching style of the team make it a great place for children to learn and grow. It is in my point of view an amazing place offering top care to children of all abilities. Very professional, great job guys. I recommend.

My son has been in the baby, toddler and pre-school rooms at LEYF Earl’s Court Nursery, a period that included covid - and is now finally off to big school (weep). I have been so impressed by the manager and her energetic team. They fill the long hours of childcare offered with so many activities and have taught my son not only hygiene, healthy eating and self-care but numbers, shapes, months, ABC, letters, traditional stories, manual skills, yoga, etc (you name it). They’ve also been on interesting outings. All was rounded off by a very sweet graduation ceremony for the leavers, complete with caps and gowns. My son has enjoyed his time here and always talked positively about it. Thanks to LEYF, he is a well rounded, curious and social little boy who I feel is exceptionally well prepared for Reception (he can’t wait to start!) Much better value in my view than many of the other nurseries round this area, which offer far fewer hours of care.
Our 4 year old daughter has been attending since she was 6 months old. They take great care of the kids and teach them well. Our daughter is always happy to go and has made some great friends there. We are happy we chose LEYF Earl's Court.

Our daughter attended the nursery for 11 months and really enjoyed going to school. The teachers were attentive, positive, and encouraging - they gave each child space to develop their own interests and capabilities. Our daughter’s picky palate has also expanded thanks to the delicious and nutritious food served at the nursery! She especially loved the mini garden indulging in outdoor play, gardening, yoga, and more. Despite attending the nursery for a relatively short time, her social and communications skills has improved tremendously. From being reserved, she is now a confident chatterbox. We will miss the nursery dearly.
Our daughter has been at the nursery for 18 months and loves it. Small class sizes, lovely staff and lots of great activities. Staff are good at keeping us updated through the app and at the end of the day. We've also been really impressed with the food, healthy and great variety.

My son has been attending the Earls Court Nursery for the past year and a half and he's growing into a little man thanks to the dedication and love from the staff, including both his direct teachers and supporting staff. He started off in the toddler room and then moved into the preschool room. I am grateful for how the nurseries contributed to fostering his independence and for the friendships, he's developed here. I could not recommend this nursery enough!
My daughter started attending the Earls Court nursery in 2019 when she was a ten months old baby. We have been with this nursery for almost four years now and it has become our second family. My daughter absolutely loves this place and is happy to go there every morning. The nursery teachers are...
The nursery has a great on-site chef who cooks fresh food and takes into consideration children’s specific dietary requirements and allergies (which was very important for us). And her fruit cakes look amazing! The nursery has a cute backyard and children spend a lot of time outside.
Overall, I would highly recommend this nursery as our experience with it is very good.
Lovely nursery - the staff really care about the children and feel like family! My son loves going to nursery in the morning and comes home very happy. He’s made lots of friends, and there is a great community feeling being part of the nursery.

Our daughter joined LEYF Earl's Court in January 2022, aged 2. We could not be happier with our choice of nursery. The previous manager and the current manager have done a great job in creating a nurturing and safe environment. We love that children are engaged with different activities every day, that the room manager and his team keep us posted on the progress or issues encountered by our daughter, that the school is flexible in terms of entry and pick-up times, that they encourage parents to form an inclusive community. Above all, we feel that the staff truly care about every single child, respect their uniqueness and help them grow into confident and kind people. The facility is not particularly fancy (good size rooms but quite old and a bit decadent) but this is a lower-order problem. Our daughter is always happy when we pick her up, and this is reassuring. Contact the nursery directly if you plan to apply (central admin never replies!).
Our son and ourselves have made friends for life within the London Early Years Foundation community.

My daughter has enjoyed her time at Earls Court and I could not have asked for a better start to her learning journey. I am so grateful to all the staff especially the staff in the preschool room. We will miss the nursery when she attends primary school in September.

Our daughter has been at Earls Court London Early Years Foundation since she was 7 months old (heading to reception in the fall) and it is truly her second family. The staff are loving and caring and she has learned a lot since joining - especially in the preschool room there are many science experiments and practical activities that challenge the kids to think. Of course alongside the usual painting, arts and crafts, singing and dancing, yoga, reading books, and practicing letters and numbers.
