Any recommendation for a nursery in Dalston/London Fields?

[agvinda]

hi - can anyone recommend a good nursery around Dalson and London Fields? Mapledene is this only one I have heard of so far - an not in good term from my DD's childminder... any suggestions are welcomed!

Hi, I'm looking too. A friend recommended Independent Place in Dalston. We visited recently and liked what we saw - helpful friendly staff and happy little ones. we are also looking at Millfields but that's further over in Clapton. Ofsted reports seemed better than other local nurseries for both of these. A friend also mentioned somewhere called the bath house in Dalston but I haven't had a chance to look it up. Hope that helps.

Yes I'd second the Bath House- on Shacklewell Lane - my DD goes there and loves it. It's very relaxed and arty - a community nursery. There's always a bit of a waiting list but worth putting your name down.
