About the employer
Our Norbury Avenue branch is located a short walk from Norbury train station and Norbury high street.
The nursery itself is purpose built and has been recently renovated, with large spaces on both floors as well as outside for children to enjoy their time and have an enhanced learning experience.
The outdoor area includes both natural grass and artificial grass which allows children to experience the outdoors whatever the weather. There is also a dedicated growing area where children are encouraged to plant and observe the growth of plants and vegetables.
The nursery is very commuter friendly with Norbury train station and bus links, both serving London and Croydon within a 5 minute walk away.
