What sets Bright Horizons Tooting Looking Glass Apart

Our beautiful day nursery and preschool in Tooting Bec, is perfectly set near the scenic Tooting Bec Common and conveniently located a 10-minute walk from Tooting Bec Station, and a short drive to Tooting town centre. With a convenient buggy storage perfect for pick up and drop off.

We are dedicated to delivering high quality childcare and education to local families like yours. This includes ensuring that the children have the best start to their schooling life through our enriching and wellbeing-focused curriculum designed by our own Early Years Specialists.

Among our six rooms are a separate sleep room for our youngest babies, a wellness room for activities such as yoga, dancing, or boogie mites, a sensory room, and an on-site library. Additionally, our garden features four individually designed areas for each age group with climbing frames for physical development and age-specific resources, while our dedicated team in Tooting is able to speak 14 languages.

Our commitment to inspire and nurture your child's curiosity extends beyond the indoors. We provide babies, toddlers and preschoolers in our nursery with access to their own age-specific garden. So, no matter your child's age, they will have their own space to explore, play and learn as well as enjoying growing and learning about fruits and vegetables.

Parents are always welcome to take some time out in our dedicated parent's room. This gives us a chance to catch up with you on how your child is progressing over a hot drink.

We would love to meet you and your family, book a visit today.

Fee Calculator

Our calculator enables you to estimate your basic fees BEFORE childcare funding is applied. We’ve taken this approach as funding is dependent on your own very individual situation, how old your child is, where you live, whether you’re working and so on.

Our comprehensive funding guides provide guidance on what funding you’re likely to be eligible for, we can send this to you after you’ve estimated your fees.

When you visit us, we can also help you understand your options and work out what your net fees will be after any childcare funding is taken into account.

Estimate your fees

Oops! We appear to be having a few technical challenges! Our team is working hard to get our fee calculator back up and running soon as soon as possible. Thanks for bearing with us.

In the meantime, if you need some answers or to book a nursery visit, then please call us on 02037803067, our friendly team is here to help.
