19 week pregnant looking for nurseries in Clapham Common

[LauraPan]

Hi all,

I live in Clapham and, despite my baby not being born yet, I have been advised to put my baby in the wait list for a nursery.

Baby is due in late June and I am planning to take 11 month of maternity leave. Does anybody know any good nursery in the area? I have budgeted around £1500 - £1600 full time.

Thanks!

There are oodles of nurseries in that part of London.

Are you looking for full day care (so you can return to work) or part time?

I will go back to work full time, but only 4 days a week.

I am struggling to find a nursery for children under 2.

I Googled “Clapham day nurseries” and got a list as long as your arm.

99% of which take babies. (Pressed send too soon...sorry)

I have Googled that too and checked all the results one by one. Anyway I was hoping to get some recommendations in here

My two went to Abacus Ark in North London (DS2 is still there) and they have a branch in Clapham. Many of the teachers moved from the North London branch to Clapham when it opened and are really lovely people. Is this within easy reach of you?
