The Montessori School, Wimbledon Little House

Park life gives this Wellington Road nursery its character: nature walks, traffic surveys and Teddy bear picnics make the surroundings part of the children's day. The Montessori School, Wimbledon Little House accepts children aged 30 to 60 months at Durnsford Recreation Ground, London, SW19 8EY.

No Ofsted inspection has been published for this setting yet. Its practical appeal centres on a term-time routine and activities in the park.

Daily walks and sporting activities bring movement into the nursery day. Traffic surveys offer another way to explore the surroundings, while Teddy bear picnics give outdoor activities a playful theme. The park is a resource for activities rather than simply an address.

The EYFS is the required early-years framework, covering children's learning and development, including communication, physical development and relationships. It is the educational baseline here, rather than an extra programme that sets this nursery apart.

Staff have attended training and are first aid trained. These are practical care arrangements, rather than a substitute for an inspection judgement about how effectively the nursery supports children.

For families choosing a first nursery, the park-based routine is a concrete part of the offer to weigh alongside the child's individual care needs. The suitability of that routine will depend on the child, as well as the hours the family needs.

Sessions and Attendance

Opening hours are 9am to 3pm on weekdays, during term time. This makes the holiday calendar an important part of planning childcare across the year.

Wraparound care serves children attending Wimbledon Park Primary School. A morning or afternoon place depends on the child's attendance at that school. This arrangement complements school attendance; it is a different use of the nursery from its daytime provision.

Getting There

The address is Durnsford Recreation Ground, Wellington Road, London, SW19 8EY. Wimbledon Park station is only a 5 minute walk away.

Funding and Paid Extras

The nursery can apply for education grant funding for children aged three and over who are not funded at another nursery. Funding for two-year-olds depends on specific criteria, including special needs or parents receiving welfare benefits. Current prices come in the nursery's written quotation.

• Term-time planning. The weekday opening window runs from 9am to 3pm during term time. Families needing childcare through school holidays should factor that calendar into their choice.
• School-linked care. Morning or afternoon wraparound depends on attendance at Wimbledon Park Primary School. Discuss how the proposed arrangement would fit your child's school timetable during a visit.
• Care and additional costs. At a visit, how would settling and individual support work for your child, and what would the written quotation include for food and non-food consumables?

This nursery suits families seeking a term-time park setting, including those using morning or afternoon wraparound alongside Wimbledon Park Primary School. Nature walks, outdoor sport and Teddy bear picnics give the offer a recognisable character. The choice rests on that practical fit rather than an inspection-based quality judgement.
