The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is located in a beautiful period property in the Victorian Suburb of Brockley, South London, and is convenient for families living in the local area. The nursery has six light and airy rooms that are divided by age group and each has been designed to promote children's development, curiosity and independence.         

All rooms have thoughtfully planned activities to stimulate children's imagination and encourage them to learn new things. The baby rooms offer low-level furniture to aid children's balancing and walking skills, and the dedicated team provides natural and engaging resources such as messy play, painting, and texture exploration. The toddler rooms also offer a wide range of activities, such as exploring colours, shapes, books, music, and dance, through a well-balanced curriculum that is designed to suit children at every stage of development.

At the nursery, children actively engage in the growth, care, and harvest of their own produce, learning invaluable lessons about plant environments, diverse fruits and vegetables, and the culinary arts. The Lewisham Nursery also boasts cookery enhancement, featuring specialised children's cooking and baking equipment designed for safety and ease of use. These tools are tailor-made to support young culinary explorers on their gastronomic journeys.

Additionally, the nursery offers an enriched language learning experience through Baby Sing and Sign classes, Spanish language lessons, and interactive multilingual books. This language immersion is seamlessly integrated into their engaging curriculum, reinforcing curiosity, creativity, and overall well-being.

Our daughter has been at OSN - Tresselian Road for well over a year now, across three rooms and she has loved almost every minute of it!


The staff are so kind, friendly and welcoming, and I am always so excited to hear what they have been up to - the activities are varied and imaginative, including

regular cooking, yoga and musical classes. They use the garden every day, and make regular visits to the local park - how they manage to push three toddlers up those hills is beyond me! My daughter has learnt so much, and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this nursery - thank you so much to the manager and the team!

Reply from Hannah, Marketing Business Partner at The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're so happy to hear how much your daughter has enjoyed her time with us. It's been a pleasure watching her grow, and we really appreciate your kind words about the team and our activities. Thanks again for your support and recommendation.

Brilliant nursery. Friendly and warm. My son always comes back having had a brilliant day filled with lots of fun activities. He loves the staff and has lots of friends and is really happy there, coming home each evening telling us lots of stories from the day. He particularly likes the extra activities
such as cooking, yoga and Spanish.

The welcoming smiles at the front door, wash over you and radiate calm and positivity as you arrive each day. I leave with confidence knowing that my child will be well attended to and enjoy their day. If I need to reach out at any point by email or telephone the nursery manager is super responsive
and helpful at all times. Passionate and caring, the nursery is a real home away from home, where all the staff know all the children and the parents. Weekly newsletter updates keep us up to date. We look forward to watching our child develop at the nursery.

We've had a very positive experience with The Old Station Tressillian Road. Our son has been there since he was 11 months old and has been encouraged by the staff in the baby rooms and now the Toddler room as he develops and learns new skills with their support. The staff are attentive and supportive,
and I feel confident leaving my son in their care. The nursery communicates clearly how the daily activities the children take part in aid their development and learning.

The nursery environment is really bright and spacious and the children spend a lot of time in the garden. My son goes running in on a morning to get a cuddle from his keyworker and they do a variety of activities with them each day. It took him a while to settle but I think he now prefers his nursery
days to the days he spends with me, we're both really happy with the nursery

This is a lovely nursery with fantastic and happy staff. One of our sons is in the pre-school having been there for almost 3 years now, and the other started in the babies room 6 months ago. We've been very happy with the nursery since the start, but especially in the last year or so under the manager's
management and since the refurb. It feels like the ideal environment for our children to come and learn and play. There's a really wide and interesting range of activities each week - music, dancing, yoga, baking, languages and the pre-schoolers go on regular trips to the local park, library and community. Most importantly, we can feel how much the team care about the children - there's a big warm smile when we arrive, the door is always open for a chat, and the boys' key workers are constantly coming up with new ways to engage them and support their development.

Both our children are very happy at Tressillian Road.
The team has worked tirelessly to refurbish the gorgeous Victorian building. They provide regular updates with photos of the activities they have been up to.
You can tell the staff really likes spending time with the kids, three staff members in
particular are stand out when interacting with our children.
I'm particularly impressed by the enrichment activities like Spanish and baking. Our daughter likes to bake semi-independently at home because of it.

Our son started at the nursery two months ago, just before his first birthday, and we couldn't have chosen a better place for him. The settling in period was a little tough on him, but his key worker and management couldn't have been more supportive and the change we saw within just a few weeks was
incredible. He loves his days at the nursery - from messy play to trips to the park, music and more - he's really happy! He's learnt so much already, including social and motor skills, and has become so confident. The staff are all incredibly warm and caring. The baby room was recently refurbished as well, it's such a great and homely environment. We would highly recommend Old Station Nursery.

We love Old Station on Tressillian Road, everyone is so friendly and welcoming and it is really reassuring to leave our little one with the same people every day. The newly renovated rooms are great.
Our little one's key worker was so kind and he loved her right away. After only a month or so he is

Our daughter has moved through baby rooms and is now in toddlers and loves the nursery. The staff have been wonderfully caring and have been really invested in her development. She has needed additional help with her gross motor development and the staff have been great at supporting this with a good
mix of direction and encouragement - including working with her physio at nursery - she has progressed a lot. She also loves the activities including music, painting and cooking and talks about her friends at nursery all the time!

Our little baby girl is very happy at The Old Station Nursery. The staff are warm, kind and caring. We feel very confident leaving her in their care each day. The management are knowledgeable, efficient and organised. They will happily make adaptations and individual arrangements as required. Communication

Our son has been attending The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road since September, when he turned 1. So far we have had a positive experience at the nursery, we found the staff to be accommodating and dedicated to the job. We are given regular updates through the day on his meals, naps, nappy changes
and it's really to communicate both with staff and with the management. The baby room our son is in has also recently been refurbished which is nice to see. Of course the settling period was somewhat hard for our son but the staff had a good plan and made lots of efforts to make it easier for him. He now seems to love nursery and pick ups and drop offs are stress free.

My son has been at the nursery for over a year now, moving through the baby rooms up to the toddler room. I have consistently been impressed by the incredibly high level of care and diligence from all the staff, and in particular, the manager who runs the nursery. There is always such great energy in
the mornings and they are constantly coming up with new creative ways to entertain the children. The nursery has also just been renovated so it's a beautiful and clean space for children to play.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.803)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.803) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.803 for The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 264 Ratings = 4.803

  • b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Old Station Nursery Tressillian Road is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 90 number of registered child places is 18, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
