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 49 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 7.5 funded hours per day, stretched across 49 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.5 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.

The manager and her team helped my lockdown baby settle in seamlessly! He walked in with limited speech and with their support he is now a super confident and chatty 2year old! We couldn't be happier with the facilities and opportunities available to the little ones and cannot fault the communication with parents. I would not hesitate to recommend to other families.
Sincere thanks for taking the time to rate our services, very pleased to know that our efforts have yielded fantastic results.

I have seen a lot of improvements in my son since he started going to nursery. I really like the activities they do through learning. Every day my son comes singing rhymes and looks very happy and active. We really like the fresh vegetarian food provided and full marks for the hygiene. Also, the staff is very helpful and caring.
Thank you so much for the feedback, we are sincerely grateful for the recognition of the hard work done by our team.
I am observing that my son eats proper meals at home regularly. Before he used to eat snacks only.

My child was excited to go to the nursery every single day. Great care and learning for kids. Transparency was maintained and we used to get detailed feedback from the team on my child's activities. Also, hygiene was given a top priority and the food served was liked by my child. Also, the team helped to teach my child to eat food by herself which was very useful when she started school. Overall Excellent Experience. Well done team!
They have lovely and caring staff, We are very happy with the overall progress of my daughter and fresh veg food is given to kids which was our main requirement. Management can be improved a little but otherwise it's the best and most trustworthy nursery.

Since our daughter has started at Learning World, we have really noticed her development and growth. She had become more independent, and has good habits. She has been learning a lot and can see the results at home. The manager and the team are friendly and nice. We are very happy to see all the creativity in the artwork and craft she brings back home. She loves going there, and we'll have our youngest son go when he's a bit older. We feel our daughter is in safe hands and can't recommend it enough. Thank you.
Thank you for the lovely feedback! We are glad that your child is going through a great transformational journey at our nursery. Sincerely appreciate the feedback about our staff.
Very professionally run nursery. They pay individual attention to kids and keep us informed. Our child is always happy at the end of the day. There is a good focus on developing the learning ability of the kids through different creative exercises every day.

We chose Learning World Montessori initially because we love the size, optimal such that our little one would get enough time with the teachers individually but also big enough to interact with other children. We liked the home-style environment and garden too. But we soon discovered that it’s much more than that, our little one loves going there, he would come home singing songs he learned and bringing artwork that he did. He would mention the classes he attended like musical bumps and football with the coach. We also like that they tailored the schedule to suit the individual child. The teachers are friendly and knowledgeable. We are delighted to have our little one attending Learning World Montessori.
The Manager has been very helpful and understanding with us. She is definitely doing a wonderful job with my daughter. I am now hoping we can build on her letters, numbers and writing skills as she is very content and loves attending nursery.

We had a very good experience in this Montessori. My kid learned so many things there. He has done a lot of activities in that nursery. This is one of the best nurseries. Good staff and clean environment. Caring for the kid is very good. And they gave healthy food. The management was very good.

It was a good learning experience for my son. He joined when he was two years two months old and was a little speech delayed. The manager and her team did good work. Their teaching structure is quite impressive. My son picked up quite well and enjoyed his stay. The manager understands each child’s requirement and works accordingly. Their daily activities help my child in developing various skills. Keep doing a good job!
Our daughter joined Learning World Montessori when she was around two and a half years old. We moved her from a popular nursery based in South Croydon so that she could get individual attention. We were drawn to Learning World Montessori because of its Montessori ethos. After our initial meeting...
During our daughter’s time at nursery, we have seen her develop into an adventurous young girl who is not only confident and articulate but also keen to explore her surroundings and enthusiastic to learn by experience.
There are many cool activities which the nursery organises that has been beneficial both for our daughter and us. Some of them are - celebrating world festivals (useful to inculcate various cultures in our children), sports day, day outings (animal farm), nature day, park days, practical lifecycle of a butterfly, Zumba, session, football session, and parent teacher meetings, etc.
Amazing App too.

I am very happy to come across 'Learning World Montessori'. The nursery provides a great environment for little kids, full of respect and happiness. I can go to work in peace knowing that my little one is happy and safe.
The only thing that needs to be added is more reports on what an individual child is learning with more pictures on app. Parents would love to see this weekly.
Keep up your great work.Thanks.

Learning World Montessori provides a great atmosphere for kids to play and learn. My son went to this nursery when he was between three and four years and loved every bit about being there. Great facilities for children learning various skills while they play and have fun. The best part was him wanting to go and meet his newly found friend Burfee (the rabbit) every day and feed him the carrots. Caring for nature and animals was another aspect he learnt quite early at Learning World Montessori.
We received daily updates of what he had been learning and doing each day and the food...
We received daily updates of what he had been learning and doing each day and the food he ate during the day which is all fresh and home cooked and very tasty by all accounts. When I asked him who's food he prefers, ours or the Managers, he always said the Managers!!
The children do some really great activities with an emphasis on the Montessori method which is fantastic and just what we wanted for our little boy. He impressed me with some of the things he told me that he'd learnt at nursery and brought home some great artwork from his activities.
Overall we were very happy we chose this nursery and it set our son up really well for school. I would recommend it to anyone, especially if you would like your child to develop using true Montessori teachings.

Very good Montessori Nursery. My kid learnt a lot after going to the nursery especially I should say the staff took a lot of care in making sure the kids are comfortable and they are learning something new. We love the extra activities the nursery provides especially musical bumps and football. Thanks, everyone. Please keep up the good work. My sincere heartfelt thanks to the staff who work so hard in pre-schooler room and toddler's room.

I'm extremely pleased about the education my son is getting at Learning World Montessori. Ever since he started, his speech has improved immensely. The teachers are absolutely amazing and make my son feel part of a community, and he loves the activities that have been set out. They provide fresh food every day to ensure the nutritional needs for every child. I strongly recommend this school.
The manager and her team are amazing. I have no words to explain the motivation given by the manager. She looked after my son and changed his routine habits (which was hard for me as a mum to do). She is a game-changer in our lives.

Whatever I write here won't be enough to justify how wonderful and nurturing this nursery is for our little ones, and to provide them that loving atmosphere in the most important early days of their lives. My daughter was the first child to join Learning World Montessori at the age of 13-months. Just by meeting the manager, seeing the set-up, her knowledge and confidence, and most importantly, her genuine love and eagerness to bring the best out in every child just pulled me towards her. My daughter attended till 4-years and still wants to go back! The strong foundation Learning World Montessori provided to my daughter has helped her a lot in staying ahead of other kids in her class. The beautiful and nurturing environment provided has helped her build her personality in every dimension. Every day I used to drop my daughter to nursery, I knew she is safe, loved, enjoying and is well looked after. Fresh food, natural activities, fun/birthday parties, transparency, and cleanliness are some of the many excellent things at Learning World Montessori. I would highly recommend it.
Happy children, Happy Mom! Kids look forward to going there every day which means happy mornings for the family. The staff here ensures that the kids are busy with a lot of different activities including reading and phonics. The staff also helps and encourages the kids to be as independent as...
Happy children, Happy Mom! Kids look forward to going there every day which means happy mornings for the family. The staff here ensures that the kids are busy with a lot of different activities including reading and phonics. The staff also helps and encourages the kids to be as independent as possible which helped immensely when my kids started school. We didn't have any settling-in issues when starting school. Highly recommend this childcare setting.
