Our daughter absolutely loves her nursery school, she doesn't want to leave when we fetch her! The staff are amazing, supportive, nurturing and have been incredibly inclusive towards children with special needs.
We moved our daughter from a different setting to Seahorse and we have been amazed by the difference. Her interpersonal skills have developed beautifully and she is enjoying becoming more independent. Her keyworker is a superstar and always has time to fill us in about her day - something we hadn't experienced before. We know our little one is safe and well supported in this setting, and we have highly recommended it to parent friends of ours!
Thank you so much for this lovely review. It means so much to me and the team to know that you are happy and feel at ease following your previous experience with another setting. Her key worker will be so pleased to hear your review!
I think it would have been better if we were all standing up around the room by the walls. In general, I am happy with the nursery, activities and learning experience my son is having every day.
The nursery is fantastic. I feel safe with my child being there, and my child seems to love all of the staff. They handled the settling-in process well and made me feel confident, and my child is thriving at the nursery.
Thank you so much for your review. I am so glad to know you feel settled in at our nursery and know how much he is cared for here!
Daily communications are sent to the parents by email and the app with photos. We really enjoyed getting the daily feedback over the years and seeing how my child has progressed in his numerical and literacy skills.
The opportunity to speak to staff members is always there, and quick response to emails too.
We couldn’t thank you enough for providing a high level of care during my child's early years and making his social and educational experience within the school setting so fun!
We would always (and have been) recommend Seahorse Nursery to any parents in the area.
Thank you team Seahorse!
Thank you so much, Chris, for your lovely review. We pride ourselves in providing the best care and education to the children in our care. We are so pleased you had a great experience with the seahorse family and with our beloved teachers!
The nursery staff were nurturing and attentive to our child and really helped them progress onto phonics and other skills which were useful in starting reception this year. In addition, they helped prepare the children mentally to move on to 'big school'. They really foster the older children taking care of the younger children and a sharing environment. Lots of outside play, forest school and activities too.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We pride ourselves in providing the best care and education to the children in our care, as well as preparing them for the big move to school! We are so pleased you had a great experience with the Seahorse family.
They offer an extensive wide range of activities and instil a sense of learning through play.
I can highly recommend Seahorse!
Thank you so much Jaime for your wonderful review. We pride ourselves in providing the best care and education to the children in our care and are so pleased you had a great experience with the Seahorse family.
We were extremely happy with the care the nursery gave our eldest daughter and continues to give our youngest daughter. The staff are excellent and provide a loving, fun, and educational environment for the children. My daughters really enjoyed their time at nursery. I had total confidence that the staff were providing a high level of care for my daughters. They became like an extension of our family – we are very fond of them. My eldest daughter has recently started school and I feel her experience at nursery has prepared her really well both educationally and socially. I would highly recommend Seahorse Nursery
Thank you so much for your lovely review - I will be sure to share this with the team! We are so happy you and your family are a part of our Seahorse family, we wish you all the very best with your eldest's move to big school!
My son has been attending the nursery since he was 12-months-old, and he is now leaving to start school. In our eyes, this is still the best nursery in the area. The level of engagement of the teachers, the variety of the activities that the children have been exposed to and the communication with the parents have been excellent. I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parents living in the area!

My daughter has been at Seahorse Nursery since she was 12-months-old and is now leaving to start school. We couldn't have been happier with our choice of nursery. What I think really sets them apart are the fabulous staff who are, without exception, engaged and engaging in all aspects of the children's care and development.

My son attended Seahorse Nursery from 14 months of age until he was 3.5 years old when we then moved house and left London. From the beginning, the nursery staff were very welcoming to both our son and us as a family. He was nurtured and cared for with much compassion. The nursery provides great daily feedback including photographs, which we loved to receive. My son loved all the daily activities, which were very diverse, and the outdoor play was always a big favourite of his! Staff were really attentive and responsive. A wonderful team and nursery.
Thank you so much for your lovely review - I will be sure to share this with the team! We are so happy you and your family were part of our Seahorse family, and we hope you are continuing to do well.
The daily reports are very good and are sent via emails at the end of each day, and we really love looking at the photos and the descriptions of their daily activities. Our son’s personal, social and emotional development has significantly improved since joining the nursery and we cannot thank the staff/carers enough for supporting his development.
Thank you so much for your lovely review - I will be sure to share this with the team! We are so happy you and your family are part of our Seahorse Community.
Excellent nursery, a very familiar and nurturing environment, staff absolutely fantastic, always willing to go an extra mile. Our child has been there for over a year now and we cannot be more pleased. What's more, our son is so happy to go there and walks in every day with a smile on his face. Totally recommend!
Thank you for your lovely feedback which we'll be sure to share with the team. We are really delighted your family is part of the Seahorse community.

Meet the Team (3)
Hi - I'm the Principal of Seahorse Nursery. I’m the person who is responsible for making sure all our children are learning, happy and safe while in our care. I grew up in Southfields living above the original term time setting and have been teaching in Early Years since 2012. Before moving into Early Years full time I worked for the Home Office in London and the European Parliament in Brussels. I studied at Kingston University for my Early Years Teacher Qualification and more recently studied at the Said Business School at Oxford University through a Goldman Sachs small business programme. I live locally in Southfields and have two children. My main responsibilities are teaching and learning, day-to-day operations, recruitment and safeguarding. I look forward to welcoming you to Seahorse!
Carly has been the Area Manager of Seahorse Nursery since joining the team in 2017, after gaining years of experience and training since starting her career in the early years of 2011. She received her degree in BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Education from the University of Roehampton and continues to take part in training every year on a range of different topics and is especially knowledgeable in Safeguarding, SEN and Health and Safety Practice.
Carly is involved in all aspects of nursery life, and although she is primarily office-based, you can also find her in the classroom, helping with meal times, and getting involved in a wide variety of activities and parent events.
Hello and welcome to our website for our beautiful nursery in Southfields! Feel free to take a look around and contact me if you'd like to schedule a tour. I'm excited to meet you!
I joined Seahorse Nursery in 2022 as a deputy manager and later transitioned to Manager. My journey in childcare began in 2015 as an apprentice studying for my level 2 and 3 qualifications. Drawing from my 10 years of experience in childcare, I ensure that my team of dedicated and passionate teachers delivers high-quality teaching and care to the children in our setting. I serve as the Designated Safeguarding Officer and the Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO). I am committed to supporting parents from diverse backgrounds and helping them transition into joining the nursery. Whether it's returning to work after maternity leave, moving to the UK from another country, or enrolling your child in a nursery for social opportunities, I am here to support you. The children are at the heart of every decision I make, and I ensure that the children are at the utmost priority. I work in partnership with our ethos, 'Learning about the world through play' and help to inspire my team to embed this into their teaching daily!
