Lovely hidden nursery in the heart of Balham. Our son comes home so happy at having spent so much time outside each day. He loves the care and attention he gets. It's a special place - thank you Lisa and team!

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 30 number of registered child places is 6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.167
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
