A place to grow

Mount Vernon Day Nursery and Preschool offers care and education for children aged 3 months to 5 years. We are proud to have a long standing staff team and management who helped us achieve a Good rating in our latest Ofsted inspection. Some of our team have been here for over 20 years!

We offer a warm, welcoming environment supporting the transition from home to nursery and our secure spacious outdoor areas for children, which includes a mud kitchen, gives the children opportunities to extend their learning, alongside a soft play area for children to partake in physical activities.

Our wide range of extracurricular activities include Baby Yoga, Spanish and French lessons, Piano and Ballet lessons and Woodwork. Our Computer suite, to support children’s ICT skills, includes Click IT computer classes.

Children in the nursery are well prepared to transition to school with the unique Ready for School Programme which includes Growing Readers, Writers and Mathematicians. To further support this our 3-5 year olds are provided with a uniform of polo shirts and sweat shirts.

We provide excellent nutritionally-balanced menus using fresh ingredients prepared by our own chef.

Meet the Team

Tracy Berry

I started my childcare career over 20 years ago working as a nanny and after a year I joined Teddies nurseries in Northwood as a Nursery Nurse before working my way up to a Regional Manager position.  In 2012 I joined Bright Horizons and continued to grow and support many nurseries across London.

In 2016 I started my own family with my husband Marc and we welcomed Harrison to the world. Since having Harrison my passion for leading my own nursery again was re-ignited and I joined Mount Vernon Nursery in May 2017.

Helping children to develop through their early years was always my passion, seeing the children's expressions of amazement as they learn something new is always a moment to treasure. Helping families through their first years, balancing life and ensuring that we all work in partnership is the key to great success. I am also passionate about the care and education we deliver each day, ensuring the team I am working with have great opportunities to develop and are empowered, being able to ensure each child reaches their full potential.
