Rated Outstanding by Ofsted (April 2023), Wandsworth Bridge Nursery & Pre-School provides childcare and education to children from birth to 5 years old.

Our little boy has been going to The London Early Years Foundation (LEYF) and settled very quickly and is surrounded by a very good team that helps him develop. They are extremely attentive and communication is very fluid and efficient. The chef cooks very good cuisine from around the world. We are
so happy with this nursery.

This is a fantastic nursery for parents looking to place their children with a close-knit and caring team of staff you can trust. Everything is documented and you know what your children are up to throughout the day. It feels safe and the children always seem happy to greet their teachers and friends
in the morning.

I am so thankful to this nursery. My child started here over a year ago on a part-time 9-12 basis. My child struggles to learn, socialise, and communicate with aspects of daily living and much more. The settling-in period took a while but the nursery were fantastic - nothing was too much and we followed
the lead of my child. My child eventually managed to stay for the whole 9-12 sessions and will soon begin full time.
She now happily runs into the gates and enjoys the opportunities she has there. Staff are very familiar with her needs now and they’ve been nothing but supportive and caring.
They have now sent in an application for more support which will help her going forward to school next year. I’m very grateful for them and that I don’t need to worry so much as now she is looked after and is happy at nursery.
Thank you.

My daughter absolutely loves attending LEYF. All the staff are very caring and friendly and I feel very secure in leaving my child in their care. My daughter will often tell me how much she enjoys going to nursery and I am kept well informed about the activities they do throughout the day, as well as
he eating and sleep schedule.

Our son has been attending the nursery full-time for over a year, and we couldn’t be happier with the services. The staff have a very caring mindset and work hard to find an individual approach to each child. The communication with the administration and the teachers is very efficient. My son is very
excited about coming to the nursery; we observe how independent and intelligent he becomes daily. The centre adheres to high safety and health standards, and the menu is very healthy. We also really appreciate a lot of outdoor time for the children.
Overall, we feel our son is in a very caring and secure environment in the nursery, and we are very grateful to the staff for working hard on providing that.

Our daughter was 1 when she joined Wandsworth Bridge Nursery and Pre-school, she has just celebrated her 3rd birthday this month. She has had the best 2 years of her life, going (full-time) to the nursery. She even asks to go on weekends because she has made incredible friends and has bonded so well
with all of her key workers! They always come up with incredible activities, and the children can also enjoy the outdoor space/garden whenever the weather allows. My child has grown into a very social and helpful child. The nursery staff take great care of the children and always alerts parents of any health concerns or accidents that may happen during the day. They also use an app where you keep track of your child's day (meals, sleep, pictures, and any important announcements). Our daughter is in her last year at nursery as she will start school in September 2024 but we are going to enjoy every single moment until then!

My daughter transferred to this nursery after refusing to settle in another for 6 months. She went in straight away and completed her induction days with no hassle or tears at all. She has been there happily for 2 years and it gave me the confidence to enrol my 6 month old when I went back to work early.
All the team are so happy and helpful and give updates via the app frequently. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, there is nothing better than peace of mind for a parent.

My daughter started The London Early Years Foundation (LEYF) nursery in January 2023. This has been the best decision I have made for my daughter.
The London Early Years Foundation (LEYF) nursery has been amazing with her transition and I can see how she has developed in many ways in such a short
space of the time.
The London Early Years Foundation (LEYF)team are so kind, supportive, welcoming, knowledgeable, encouraging and consistent in their approach. My daughter is learning a lot and building even more on her social skills. My daughter looks forward to going nursery to see her friends and also to see her nursery teachers.
My daughter has adapted and is more settled as a result of this. Thank you greatly.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the team at The London Early Years Foundation (LEYF) nursery Wandsworth Bridge Nursery & Pre-School. Thank you so very much for the consistent, professionalism, dedication and support you have all shown to myself and my daughter.

I have two children at this nursery and they both love it there, one will be attending school soon and does not want to leave! The staff are amazing and form a strong bond with all children. The confidence my children have developed has amazed me and it is all down to the nursery. Honestly couldn't
have found a better nursery to send them to!

We want to thank you for your hard work keeping our children safe and teaching them. Lovely nursery and pre-school. I feel the school and staff are working so well together and pupils feel the benefits. Wonderful teacher and the support they give is very much appreciated. Even though my son is still
in the process of settling I do believe that he has improved socially and academically already. It's truly wonderful! A very big plus is the Parent Zone by LEYI where we enjoy being able to log in and view our child's daily activities and also contribute to this lovely journey.

Our child very much enjoys going to the nursery school. She loves all activities that are open to them. As parents, we are happy to see our child develop so well. The staff gives a lot of individual attention to the children and we are impressed by the quick progress made by our child. Our child joined
the nursery in September last year and did not speak English at the time. Now she is so confident and makes herself understood. The nursery also has great facilities, including an outside garden with plants (planted by the children). Children also go regularly to parks and playgrounds nearby and it offers good visits out of the school (eg. fire brigade, hospital, to give books to children there, dentist ...).

When my son first started they helped him settle in quickly and smoothly, which I was pleased with. He has been attending for a while now and he's made friends with both children and teachers.
I feel like since he first started to now it has slightly gone downhill as no one really tells you how your
child is getting on, sometimes nappy would not be clean on pick up.

Townmead Community Nursery's staff is very competent and warm and knows how to make children feel welcome and comfortable. My 2 children attended Townmead Community Nursery and enjoyed it very much, even though they are very different in character and interests. I would highly recommend Townmead Community

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.908)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.908) out of 10 for Wandsworth Bridge Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.908 for Wandsworth Bridge Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (118 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.908

  • 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 Wandsworth Bridge Nursery & Pre-School is based on 11 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 11 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.
