About the setting
Working Mums Battersea opened in 2015 in The Old Court, a historic building on Sheepcote Lane.
Two cosy baby rooms downstairs, Discoverers for pre-walkers and Explorers for walking babies, which opens straight into the courtyard garden and its walk-in sandpit.
Upstairs is Inventors, a high-ceilinged room with a mezzanine for the twos and up, and Little Einsteins, our pre-school room.
Kizzie, our manager, came up through an outdoor nursery from practitioner to manager. She's big on outdoor learning, in the moment planning and the Curiosity Approach, and she's on the floor with the children and the team every day.
