If still of any help, both my children went to First Steps Montessori Nursery on Upland Road and over a period of 4 years in all, we had a fantastic experience. Staff is experienced, friendly and very caring towards the children in their care. The education part of it was also very good, apart from the Montessori approach they implement the national curriculum, have French, Drama, Yoga, sports sessions and lots of outings. We loved it and would recommended to anyone. Good luck
