Nurturing Confident, Curious and Happy Learners

At Toddler’s Inn Nursery and Pre-School, we understand that every child’s learning journey is unique. For more than 50 years, our family-run nursery has provided a caring, secure and stimulating environment in which young children can learn, develop and flourish.

Our experienced early years practitioners take the time to understand each child’s interests, personality and individual needs. Through warm relationships, thoughtful guidance and purposeful play, we help children feel safe, valued and ready to explore the world around them.

If you are looking for a trusted Nursery School in London where care and education work hand in hand, Toddler’s Inn offers a welcoming community for children and their families.

Early Years Knowledge and Expertise

Our knowledge of early childhood development shapes everything we do. We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage framework and use Development Matters guidance to create meaningful learning experiences appropriate to each child’s age and stage of development.

Our carefully planned curriculum supports the seven key areas of early learning:

• Communication and language
• Personal, social and emotional development
• Physical development
• Literacy
• Mathematics
• Understanding the world
• Expressive arts and design

Children enjoy a balanced programme of creative activities, messy play, stories, songs, early phonics and numeracy, physical play and outdoor exploration. Our practitioners observe children’s progress carefully and adapt activities to build upon their existing knowledge, interests and abilities.

This individual approach helps every child make progress while developing the confidence and independence they will need for school and later life.

Learning Through Care, Play and Positive Relationships

Children learn most effectively when they feel happy, secure and supported. That is why strong attachments and trusting relationships are at the heart of our approach.

Our programme helps children develop six important lifelong skills: attachment, engagement, understanding boundaries and rules, forming partnerships, working as part of a team and becoming confident leaders. These skills are woven naturally into everyday play, activities and routines.

From learning to communicate their needs and play cooperatively to serving themselves at mealtimes and putting on their own coats, children are encouraged to have a go, persevere and take pride in what they achieve.

A Welcoming and Inclusive St Johns Wood Nursery

Toddler’s Inn welcomes children and families from a wide range of cultures, backgrounds and communities. We celebrate every child as an individual and create opportunities for them to learn about one another, develop respect and gain a positive understanding of the wider world.

Our close partnerships with parents are equally important. By sharing observations, listening to families and maintaining open communication, we can provide consistent care and learning tailored to each child.

For families searching for a St Johns Wood Nursery School that combines extensive experience with a warm, personal approach, Toddler’s Inn provides a reassuring place in which children can thrive.

Preparing Children for Their Next Adventure

Our aim extends beyond preparing children for their first day at school. We want every child to leave Toddler’s Inn with curiosity, confidence, kindness and a genuine enthusiasm for learning.

Through a combination of expert teaching, nurturing care and engaging experiences, we help children build strong foundations for their future.

At our Nursery in London, every day brings new opportunities to explore, create, communicate and grow.
