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.

Such a fantastic nursery. Really committed, and lovely staff, and very happy children. Really couldn’t fault it. My daughter has attended there for nearly three years and has made lots of friends and got on really well with the teachers.

A very lovely, warm and nurturing nursery run by a brilliant team, who have a very personal connection to each of the children. My children both developed very strong bonds with all of their key workers and room leaders and just had a brilliant experience. The menu is also fantastic, from vegetable quesadillas to fish, veg, potatoes and curries. It takes such a weight off my mind at the weekends knowing they eat so well at Lefy.
Such a lovely nursery with incredibly caring staff. I was so nervous for my 9-month-old to start nursery, but they made his settling-in period a lovely experience for both my baby and me. After five weeks he is fully settled in and all smiles when we collect him. I feel lucky and grateful to have a...

Both my daughter and son loved their time at Camberwell Grove Nursery - the manager and her team were kind, caring and engaged right from the Baby room through to Pre-school. My son still talks about the fun experiments and activities he did there, as well as the teachers who supported him throughout. Highly recommend!
Wonderful nursery with loving staff who organise fun activities that also allow my son to learn alongside play. Since my son started nearly a year ago, he has developed in leaps and bounds and everyone, from teachers to the catering staff, is very loving and involved.

I am so grateful to the manager and her team for creating such a nurturing, loving, educational, energetic and well-organised environment for the children. It has given us so much comfort and confidence to know our child is being looked after by such a caring and supportive extended support network of our family. A huge shout out to the head chef who spoils the children with the most delicious-sounding, varied and exciting menus, along with lots of sticker fun and amusement.

Camberwell Grove is a wonderful nursery. Our son started in January 2023 when he was 10 months old and loves his time here. The staff are great and the children get up to all sorts of amazing things both in the nursery, in their great outdoor space or on little trips into the community. He is turning into a confident and fun little boy, and his language is coming on amazingly. As a family, we are so happy and would highly recommend.
Our son started at Camberwell at 9 months old and has loved it ever since. The baby room was amazing at settling him in and the transition to the toddler room at 2 was great. We love the staff and our son loves the activities and outings. He has progressed so much since moving into Rising Two's....
We would definitely recommend this nursery and we have signed up our daughter to start next year!
Our son started here when he was fourteen months and is absolutely loving it. We are so happy with the quality of learning, every day he comes home with something new. His language has ramped up rapidly during his time at LEYF. Staff are warm and friendly.

My child attended the Camberwell Grove Nursery and Pre-School from the age of nine months until she turned four. We would like to applaud the teachers and the staff for all their hard work and dedication. The nursery is brilliant! Our daughter was going there with a smile every day, it was her happy place. She grew up to be confident in her abilities, sociable and open. The teachers treat children with respect and understanding, developing their skills methodologically and specifically to each child. The food is really good too, cooked at the premises and well balanced. Needless to say that the spacious greened open space of the nursery is unmatched in dense London. Thank you so much LEYF!
Both of our boys have attended LEYF Camberwell Grove for over two years and we couldn't have been happier. The staff are so caring and we've seen them both make such good progress. The outdoor space is also great.

Our daughter was at Camberwell Grove Nursery & Pre-School for 2 and a half years and my son for 6 months. Both of my kids settled well and loved their time at the nursery. They participated in great activities and I feel that the learning and development (especially with my daughter) was excellent. The staff were kind, caring and enthusiastic. But the main thing was that my partner and I trusted them to take care of our 2 children, they made it easy and stress-free for us to manage our work life which I am extremely grateful for.
My daughter went here for almost two years and was very happy there. The staff were lovely and caring and they provided a fantastic range of activities including gardening and cooking. She really developed and came out of her shell during her time there. Plus, the garden is absolutely amazing!

I’m very happy with our Nursery. The staff are wonderful, caring and are great with kids. A particular advantage of this nursery is the extensive open space and garden around it. I feel that my child is happy and well looked after there.

Amazing nursery. Our child started going to the nursery when he was 5 months old and the staff were extremely reassuring and patient considering we were quite anxious about leaving our baby at this age. They have made the transition to going back to work such a great experience and we are very grateful. They were and have continued to be very attentive to our child and our feedback. From the very beginning and still today (our child is 18 months), our son has a giant smile on his face when he arrives at the nursery. The staff are also great at sharing with us what he has done during the day and what he has enjoyed the most. We also love the premises and the lovely garden. Last but not least, the food menus look delicious. Thank you very much to everyone at Camberwell Grove Nursery & Pre-school! We feel very happy and lucky that our son can go to such a great nursery!
