When you visit Sanderstead Park Nursery, the first thing you are likely to notice is the welcoming, friendly team and homely environment. It is this unique aspect our parents comment on most and one which we actively encourage. This helps our children feel they are safe, loved and have a strong sense of belonging. From babies up to pre-school, we provide an emotional and physical environment enabling our children to be inquisitive and explore with confidence, safe in the knowledge there is a loving, familiar and trusted adult to help them when they might need it.
Our indoor space has been designed to provide a safe, secure learning environment that reflects how young children play and explore. With spacious, bright and well designed children’s rooms and an accessible, exciting outdoor space for all age groups, we offer our families a secure and stimulating environment where children come first.

We use the park for activities including woodland walks, play area, scooter track and basketball courts. Car parking is available (off Village way) for drop off and collection only.
