What's different in London

Early years settings in England are registered and inspected by Ofsted against the EYFS framework. On 31 March 2025 there were 60,400 registered childcare providers in England offering 1.29 million places; 98% were judged good or outstanding at their last inspection (Ofsted, 2025). Partnership with parents is an explicit expectation.

London's mix — chains, single-site nurseries, Montessori, bilingual settings and prep-school nurseries — competes for families paying some of the highest fees in the country. Daily visibility is the promise that justifies the fee.

UK GDPR applies fully: tiered consent, a data-processing agreement and manager approval before anything reaches a parent. See our GDPR guide for nurseries.
