Rated Good by Ofsted (February 2023), Weir Link Nursery & Pre-School provides childcare and education to children from birth to 5 years old.

The Nursery is situated inside The Weir Link community centre, not far from Clapham South tube. It's a bright, open plan setting with separate areas for different age groups and a large garden.

The children enjoy lots of varied activities with the experienced staff, from messy play in the mud kitchen to sensory ice, yoga, science experiments, growing herbs, and more! Parents get involved too, reading stories to the children in their first languages.

Review from Bee B (Mother of Child) published on 7 June 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My toddler attends Weir Link Nursery and I can only sing its praises, especially due to the staff. The environment itself is great with a lovely outdoor play area and a close by playground and park. Every day there are different and interesting activities set up, so I feel my very inquisitive son gets
ample opportunities to explore, be creative and learn. The wonderful staff is very caring and quick to communicate feedback on my son’s day and other relevant matters. The manager is also really great as she is always engaged with every child and is often in the room playing with all the kids. (My son’s previous nursery did not have this kind of engagement from the manager). Overall, we really lovely this nursery.

Both my children (boy and girl with very different personalities) go to The Weir Link and they really like it. Staff are kind and adapt to your child's personality and learning preferences to get the best out of them. Wouldn't go anywhere else!

My son has had a thoroughly enjoyable experience while at the Weir Link Nursery in Balham. From the planning and implementation of the activities provided, to the mental and physical development of my child. It has been exceptional. My son's verbal, listening and writing have improved significantly
during his time at the nursery and as a result he is very happy and confident in himself.

My son has been in this nursery for over 7 months and I can see how he has developed his learning/social skills significantly. The staff is always very friendly and caring. I wish they could earn more money as they deserve it. I have also seen an improvement in its cleanliness since last year. I will
recommend this nursery to friends and family as I feel that my son is very well looked after. Thanks.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both our daughters are in Weir Link Nursery and are very happy there. Every day they are doing interesting activities and they both really enjoy going. Our youngest daughter only recently joined the baby room and it didn't take long for her to settle in. The teachers are always very friendly and you
always get an informative account of your child's day at the end of the day. The children also really enjoy playing in the outdoor garden and the older children go on an occasional outing to the library, local shop or church. Both nursery teachers and management are very engaged working with the children and motivated and you really get the feeling they care a lot.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We had both our kids at Weir Link. The current staff and the director and deputy director are great, showing so much care and dedication to the children. I was really touched by something that happened recently. Our small child had his finger trapped in a door and had to go to hospital for an operation.
The deputy director phoned my wife twice in the evening, when her job was over, to inquire how our little one was doing. We were really impressed with how caring she was. The staff also thought carefully and prepared solutions how to protect our kid's hand when he returned to nursery. He is now all fine and very happy to be back.

Amazing staff, my daughter is so happy and learning so much, great food menu, fresh, homemade and no sugar. Huge variation in learning activities, children are happy and inspired by what they get to learn. Great facilities both indoor and outdoor. The toddlers are being challenged on a daily basis.
Staff are fantastic and offer great end of day feedback on how my daughter has done.

I'm really happy with the nursery in all Aspect. If I have to find something that could be improved I would suggest to don't change key persons so often. I believe kids need to build up a relation with the key person and any change means to start this build up from scratch.

With our eldest now at school, we are repeating the Weir Link journey with our youngest, who, having been there a matter of months is really blossoming under the care of the staff and brilliant management. Lately, my daughter has not wanted to leave, which speaks for itself! The staff know each child
inside out and show the utmost care, going above and beyond. It is a wonderful nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at the nursery for over 18 months now (I think!) and he absolutely loves it. My daughter is signed up to begin in August and I know too that she will love it. We couldn't ask for more from the staff at the nursery. Regardless of any problem thrown at them, things run very smoothly indeed.
My son's social skills, speech and early learning skills are more progressed than children I know of a similar age that do not attend such a good nursery. At drop off I always look in the kitchen and it is spotless! When perusing the newsletter I can see that they have a packed activity schedule and my son is always bringing home bits of art for us! When we ask the staff for help (potty training/stop biting other children etc.) they are very good at reinforcing what we are trying to do at home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandson has attended The Weir Link Nursery from the age of 13 months to 3 years and 10 months. During his time there, I have witnessed his amazing progress and ongoing development under the care and supervision of a professional and extremely caring team. Although there have been several staff changes,
the team has been led by the Nursery manager who has always shown passion for her job. Whenever I dropped off or collected my grandson from the Nursery, I was always made to feel welcome and kept informed of any necessary information. I look forward to experiencing their continued commitment when my granddaughter attends early in 2019 at the age of 11 months. Well done indeed and THANK YOU, The Weir Link Nursery!

Our kids have been attending this nursery since very early. We have seen the nursery grow and improve every year. The staff and direction have done outstanding work, and the result is there for everyone to see.


We think our kids are better thanks to you.


Hearty thanks.

Both our children have attended The Weir Link nursery and we couldn't be happier with both the teachers and the management. Our eldest is now at school (started nursery at 9 months) and our little one is in the Baby room. Daily varied activities to stimulate the children, a lot of personalised and loving
care, a solid organization in the background: this nursery feels like family to us. They offer an extraordinary value for money (they have been awarded Outstanding by Ofsted) considering the prices of other nurseries in the area. We are very proud of all the achievements of these last years and couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.481)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.481) out of 10 for Weir Link Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 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 4.824 for Weir Link Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (90 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.824
  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 4.657 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Weir Link Nursery & Pre-School is based on 9 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.7
    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 47 number of registered child places is 9.4. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.4 = 0.957
  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.
